Need subpage to show up in post's slug
Hi,
I made custom wordpress site and the blog functionality is under a tab called "News".
When ever I land on a post page, I notice the url is:
www.publishingbytheseas.com/whatever-the-blog-title-is.
I need each post to have this url:
www.publishingbytheseas.com/news/whatever-the-blog-title-is
I've racked my brain and exhausted my google searching.
Here's the site:
http://publishingbytheseas.com
Thanks!

You can try relocating the blog (moving the WordPress files) to a directory (folder) in the root of the site named "news."
ok , Go into settings>Permalink
add "news" in the Category base, i believe or Tag base.
add "news" in the Category base, i believe or Tag base.
Make news a category in your blog and have your posts under that, Then you can set the permalink style (Common Settings in WP Admin > Settings > Permalinks) to /%category%/%postname%/
Have the solution not work?
You can also try to add a news category in categories section... then apply all you post articles to that category.
Or you can add a plugin called "flutter" and make your own write panel called "news" and add your news articles to there.
Or
You can make a page called "News" and run a query of the post that have the category "news" to show on that page by way of a shortcode post plugin.
Or
You can make a new page template for the "News" page, and add this code to it:
<?php get_posts( $args ); ?>
<!-- configure it accordingly to your wishes-->
<?php $args = array(
'numberposts' => 5,
'offset' => 0,
'category' => news,
'orderby' => 'post_date',
'order' => 'DESC',
'include' => ,
'exclude' => ,
'meta_key' => ,
'meta_value' => ,
'post_type' => 'post',
'post_mime_type' => ,
'post_parent' => ,
'post_status' => 'published' ); ?>

So sorry, I got really excited and thought the solution was the correct one.
I really need the url to SINGLE posts to read:
news/title-of-post (is this possible in wordpress? I've been looking at other sites and the single post usually has something like below:
news/category/title-of-pos
No way to have post title as a direct sub to news?
I don't want to have to add the news category to each post as well as it's designated category.
I'm going to give flutter a try. I don't know if the final suggestion would work as it looks like it's not doing anything for the single post which calls the single.php file.
