    I have my permalinks set with the desired %postname%, which I understand might be more than just a recommendation but a requirement for GD.

    Unfortunately, what this also does is place all of the blog posts at the site root. Is there anyway to configure this so that all of the blog posts appear under a subfolder like:

    example.com/blog/my-great-blog-post/

    where “blog” could be dictated…blog, news, magazine, whatever?

    cheers

    Hello Brian, you can set a custom structure permalink in Settings/Permalinks (wordpress not GD) and you can write /blog/%postname%/

    @Simone, thanks. I had that before and Guust switched it back. We were trouble shooting at the time and perhaps the issue wasn’t related. Worth trying again though.

    cheers

    I tried on my test site and it works as expected, try here the blog post, and here the GD-related pages

    Yeah, set that up again on mine and seems fine. I seem to remember some GD URLs where the blog folder started to show up, but I think that was due to some URL and multi-location issues that have been resolved now…so probably was an indirect issue.

    thanks
