Plain: This is the “unattractive” permanent link setting.

Date and title: This utilizes a year/month/date format followed by your post’s title. The title here refers to the slug of your post.

Month and title: This is the same as option two, but without the day information.

Numeric: This option simply uses the ID of the post from the row in the wp_posts table of your database.

Post title: This one uses the title of your post.

Custom Structure: This final field allows you to define your own structure using the complete set of structure tags available in WordPress.
