Important to Keep in Mind: Changing a slug will update the live URL for that page. If the page has been previously shared or indexed, the old link may break. To avoid an error message on a previously live page, you can set up a redirect.

Each page on your website has a unique URL slug — the part of the address that comes after your domain (e.g., yourdomain.com/about). You can rename this slug in the B12 Editor to improve SEO or update your site structure.

1. Log in to your B12 Editor

Go to https://b12.io/login and sign in with your credentials.

2. In the left-hand editing panel, select Website > Pages
