Hi,
I’ve recently moved over to Generate Press and I’m encountering a puzzling issue with my permalinks. I have very basic website skills, so this might not be to do with Generate Press, but I would be grateful for any thoughts.
When I assign my website pages to a parent page in the page settings tab, the permalink changes to include a site description, slug, or tagline (I’m unsure which) that I’ve never seen before, don’t remember writing, and can’t find anywhere in the page or appearance/customizer settings. I’m baffled by this and don’t know how to remove it. The permalink structure is set to post name only in the wordpress dashboard (settings/permalinks).
So far I have removed the parent page assignments in order to achieve the simpler permalink structure I want. But I suppose that will have ramifications for how my pages are grouped in the sitemap and how google presents them in search results.
Any thoughts on the above would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
just to cover off, neither GeneratePress or the GP Premium plugin will interfere with Permalinks or their structure. Thats a core function of WordPress and customizing URLs are best left to dedicated permalink / SEO plugins.
By default a child page permalink should have the parent slug eg.
https://mysite.com/parent/childIf the
parentis not the slug then i assume some other plugin is interfering with that.
Do you have any plugins that may be doing that ?
