What is Permalink?

WordPress' permanent URL for content; multilingual setups prefix it with the language path.

In more depth

Pretty permalinks are required for language routing — “Plain” permalinks break path-based languages.

Why it matters for your website

Understanding Permalink helps you make better decisions when taking a WordPress site multilingual — from choosing URL structures and engines to controlling costs. Transxlate handles the mechanics (language URLs, lang attributes, caching, hreflang on Pro) so terms like this become settings, not engineering projects.
