  Hello,

  I am coming from a static self-hosted blog onto a wordpress.com hosted blog.

  I would like to change permalinks or URL rewrite my old pages.

  How can I proceed ? (permalinks don’t appear in blog settings, and I cannot host a htaccess file)

  Thank you

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Raphael,

  You can create custom slugs for your new posts and pages:

  However, completely re-writing URLs as you’re requesting will not be possible on WordPress.com.

  Best,
