  Does any plan on WordPress.com gives access to permalinks settings?
  Instead of
  https://blogname.wordpress.com/2015/04/04/post-title/
  to custom
  https://blogname.wordpress.com/post-title/ ?

  Thinking about migrating my self-hosted blog here is this is possible.

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

  Hello there,

  With WordPress.com hosting, you are not able to change permalink structure. Permalink options are only available with the self-hosted version of WordPress.org.

  Hope this helps answer your question :)

  Alright. Is this situation absolute? This website is on wordpress.com –
  https://www.labnol.org/internet/personalized-mail-merge-in-gmail/20981/

  How does it have custom URL structure then?

  Hi there,

  I just checked the URL that you provided above, using WhoIslook up, and it is not hosted here on WordPress.com.

  Perhaps you are referring to the use of WordPress.org software on that site?

  Here is a great link to explain further the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Hope this helps to further explain
