The link structure for a blog post is /blog name/month/documentid.aspx

How do I change the link to be /blog name/month/blog title.aspx when saving a new blog post?

Thanks in advance!

Out of the box by default the URL should be /blog/month year/blog post name.

You might look to see if there is a customization made to your instance to do this. It would be in custom code in the file system.

That's odd. It has always been documentid.aspx. So, I would expect to find customization's in the App_Code folder correct? Or would it be in the cmsmodules/blogs folder?

Ahh yes Dawid I forgot about that, the Page name source field is what is used for the URL so ensure that is set at BlogPostTitle.
