Pretty urls in dashboard

Permalink
Hi,
My sitemap is configured with

Top level (Products)
Sub level (product 1, product 2 etc ....)

When I access the site I can access pages with pretty urls with no problem so for instance I go towww.www.mywebsite.com/products/product1... without problem.
But when I am in the dashboard, once I editwww.www.mywebsite.com/products/product1... and save the urlwww.www.mywebsite.com/products/product1... changes to something likewww.www.mywebsite.com/products/index.php... ..... and all links are broken ... I don't get why ... any help is welcome. Many thanks

When editing in concrete5 saving tends to redirect back to the page using the page id instead of the pretty url. Is this just in the editing mode you get the problem or do you mean the links get messed up on the live public site?

Thanks

this happens only within the dashboard ... but I also realized something else ...

I have my menu as stak , in there i link to the pages this way : a href="product1" , now the link as is works fine on page that are under the parent section... but those links do not work outside of this level. Basically links should be this way parentpage/sublevelpage , but if I put link this way in subpages it gets converted to parentpage/parentpage/sublevelpage. How do i link to subpages from other pages, do i need to use full link like http://www.www.mysite.com/parentpage/sublevelpage... to make sure it works from nywhere?? Hope that is clear.... many thanks
