Hello
Right now My Current Category Url Like this – mysite.com/category/wordpress/
But I want to remove the “category” slug from all of the categories. So I want something like this
mysite.com/wordpress/
How can I do this?
Thanks
Hi obito
Thanks for reaching out.
Try heading over to
Settings > Permalinks, the category base should be there as one of the available settings.Instead, I tried this code,
function fix_slash( $string, $type ) { global $wp_rewrite; if ( $wp_rewrite->use_trailing_slashes == false ) { if ( $type != 'single' && $type != 'category' ) return trailingslashit( $string ); if ( $type == 'single' && ( strpos( $string, '.html/' ) !== false ) ) return trailingslashit( $string ); if ( $type == 'category' && ( strpos( $string, 'category' ) !== false ) ) { $aa_g = str_replace( "/category/", "/", $string ); return trailingslashit( $aa_g ); } if ( $type == 'category' ) return trailingslashit( $string ); } return $string; } add_filter( 'user_trailingslashit', 'fix_slash', 55, 2 );It works for me, found this guide on this site
I found out the solution myself.
To remove / item / or / category /, you can go to permalink and insert a dot (.) in the category base field you would like to remove.
See possibly this guide, it explains it a little better: https://www.mediumtalk.net/remove-category-wordpress-url/
If you don’t want to change any settings you guys can use a plugin instead: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/remove-category-url/
