Permalink Settings in WordPress for Category

i have a quick question about Permalink Settings in WordPress. My current setting for post is http://somesite/%postname%/

I want same for my category, how can i make my category URL to http://somesite/%categoryname%/

The default in WordPress is http://somesite/category/%categoryname%/

Solution

  • You can just put a period in the "Category base" field in your permalink settings. If you are using the Yoast SEO plugin you can use the Advanced area to change the permalinks also.
