In the theme that I have I have to entere the page id, if I change the permalink structure, would that affect the theme, or will Worpress change everything or do I have do it manually? Once I change the permanling, for examaple http://www.mydomain.com/%postname%.html what will be the id of the page? Thanks for your help.
