    Hi Guys,

    Got a quick wordpress problem, hope you can help!

    I want two sections on my site, one for news and one for a blog.

    I'm looking for the URLs to resolve like this:

    http://www.example.com/blog/1/hello-world

    http://www.example.com/news/1/hello-world

    So, basically to word news or blog followed by post_id and post_name - should be simple, right? The only problem is I've tried everything to get this structure but nothing works.

    I've installed wordpress on the root, is using a sub-drectory the only way to get the structure I'm looking for? I don't really want to use the category page (create a parent blog category), plus I heard this causes performance issues?

    Any help is GREATLY appreciated, particularly if you have a resolution! :) Thanks.

    You are trying to jumble both post id and post name together which is not possible in Wordpress! Post Id is a number generated of your posts in numeric order where as Post Name comprises of excerpt from the post! Therefore you can use one option at a time either post name or post id
