WordPress<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>WordPress is a magical place where bloggers can create and manage their websites with only a few clicks. Using customizable themes and an easy-to-use interface, even people with no coding experience can make their voices heard on the internet.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Enigma_of_Renaming_a_WordPress_Page\"><\/span>The Enigma of Renaming a WordPress Page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Today, we&#8217;ll venture into the unknown world of page renaming in WordPress. Renaming a page may sound like an easy task, but it&#8217;s essential to proceed with caution to avoid the dreaded functionality mishap.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"But_What_Is_a_WordPress_Page_Anyway\"><\/span>But What Is a WordPress Page Anyway?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>First things first, let&#8217;s establish what we mean by &#8220;page.&#8221; It&#8217;s just like a regular web page, only it&#8217;s static, which means it doesn&#8217;t change or update regularly. People typically create pages to store information like contact details, &#8220;about us&#8221; pages, and sitemaps.<\/p>\n<p>When you create a page, WordPress assigns it a unique web address (URL), which you use to access it from your website. But sometimes, you&#8217;ll find that the URL has become outdated, or the content of the page doesn&#8217;t match the title. That&#8217;s when you need to rename it in WordPress.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Benefits_of_Renaming_a_Page\"><\/span>The Benefits of Renaming a Page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Why would you want to rename a page, you ask? It&#8217;s a brilliant idea if you&#8217;re rebranding your website, for starters. Or if you have a massive website with heaps of pages, you might want to consolidate old pages by renaming or deleting them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Magic_of_Renaming_a_Page_in_WordPress\"><\/span>The Magic of Renaming a Page in WordPress<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Now for the moment of truth. Here are the six steps to rename a page in WordPress.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Log_in_to_Your_WordPress_Dashboard\"><\/span>Step 1: Log in to Your WordPress Dashboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>As with most things in WordPress, you need to log in to your dashboard before you do anything. If you&#8217;re already logged in, you can skip ahead.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Navigate_to_the_Pages_Section\"><\/span>Step 2: Navigate to the Pages Section<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>On the left-hand menu, locate the &#8220;Pages&#8221; section, and click on it to reveal your website&#8217;s existing pages.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Select_the_Page_You_Want_to_Rename\"><\/span>Step 3: Select the Page You Want to Rename<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Hover your cursor over the page&#8217;s title, and a sequence of options should appear, including &#8220;Edit,&#8221; &#8220;Quick Edit,&#8221; &#8220;Trash,&#8221; and &#8220;View.&#8221; Choose &#8220;Edit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Change_the_Page_Title\"><\/span>Step 4: Change the Page Title<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>On the right-hand side of the page editor, find the &#8220;Enter title here&#8221; field and click on it. You can change the title to anything you like, as long as it doesn&#8217;t contain special characters like &#8220;&#038;&#8221; or &#8220;\/\/,&#8221; which might cause chaos.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Update_the_Page\"><\/span>Step 5: Update the Page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Scroll down to the bottom of the editor panel and click the &#8220;Update&#8221; button. This will save the changes and update the page.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Check_Your_Website\"><\/span>Step 6: Check Your Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Finally, click on the link to the renamed page on your website and check to see if it displays the updated page title.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span>The Bottom Line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Renaming a page in WordPress is a simple but powerful tool that can improve the structure, user experience, and search engine optimization of your website. Always check that any links pointing to the page are updated, and review your website regularly to keep everything fresh and functional.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mysteries of Renaming a Page in WordPress WordPress is a magical place where bloggers can create and manage their websites with only a few&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7209,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3287],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/WORDPRESS-ULTIMATE-GUIDE-How-To-step-by-step-Tutorial.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8688"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8688"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8688\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7209"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8688"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8688"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mauricemuteti.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8688"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
