Hello everyone,

In Settings->general settings Custom Permalink Structure field is disabled. I cannot edit it.

Please help.
What browser?
Use another browser, perhaps.

What happens when you click in it and type?

No, its not browser. I tried just in case firefox and chrome and on different computers.
The field is just as usual disabled field with grayed out pattern:
%parent%/%slug%/
and i cant change it.

I have another getsimple website(though with lesser version of getsimple) and everything is ok there.
It's not disabled, it's showing the default value.
You have to type (not edit) your custom structure there (if you want to change it, of course)
Its called a placeholder, it disappears when you type in the field.
I didnt think about placeholder thing Smile
Thanks, that was it Smile
The confusion is because chrome ( and maybe other browsers ) do not hide the placeholder on input focus, which is odd.

I will override this.

Because of this behaviour I added the jQuery Placeholder Plugin to my contact form.
I didn't want to use <legend> or a headline or something to make it look slim.
You can find one here.
All you have to do is add this line
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="'.$SITEURL.'path_to/js/jquery.placeholder.js"></script>
and add the css class like
Code:
.placeholder {
    color: #888 !important;
}
.placeholderFocus {
    color: #555;
}

Just a thought. You can even override it. Wink
