Is it possible to edit and change the url of a hub, once it is published?
No, it's not possible. To change the URL you would have to delete the article and start again. You shouldn't get too hung up on what the URL says, though. I deal with this URL/Title thing by using the initial title (and thus the URL) as a general label. Then, later, I can change the title and the URL is still in the ballpark. The title is much more important than the actual URL in any case.
This hub I wrote explains my approach to the URL/Title puzzle:

Thanks Casimiro, for answering the question and helping. Thanks for the link as well.
Yet I have not tried it, I think no need to delete the article in totality. Just create new hub by selecting a new permalink by editing and keep hub topic as same or even if you want to change it, go for it. Copy and paste the text into new hub and add all the capsules of your url you want to change. Before publishing just not forget to delete the existing hub.
Thanks wqaindia, for your response to the question and helpful suggestions.

Can anyone tell me how to change the URL of a hub once it has been published? I changed the title of a hub after starting it, but the web address still has the original text in it which is no longer relevant. I can't see a way of editing the URL, does anyone know?

Hello, I made an error without realising on the hub I just completed. When I was planning a number of hubs that I wanted to work on, I set them up in my account. I changed my mind about one of them, and instead of deleting it, just renamed it to what I wanted my new title to be.I just...

So, I understand that the question-answer section is to inspire hubs, BUT it feels a little disingenuous to use the information everyone provided, especially when that information would fit nicely in a list. I asked a question about recipes and received lots of great replies. How do I make a...
