Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
To remove the product category from your products, you may need to update their permalinks on your WordPress dashboard > Settings > Permalinks. You can choose the Default option to achieve that:
I hope that helps.
Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime if you need further assistance with anything else.
Hi Reinelle,
Thanks for coming back to me. I tried stripping the product from the permalink, but on the product page then i’m only left with the product slug, and no category.
What i’m trying to achieve is:
Main category product:
http://www.websitename.co.uk/category/product-slug
Sub-category product:
http://www.websitename.co.uk/sub-category/product-slug
How it shows currently:
http://www.websitename.co.uk/category/sub-category/product-slug
So the parent slug doesn’t show when it’s a sub-category url, is this possible?
Many thanks,
Nick
Hello,
Unfortunately, Rank Math only removes the category base at the moment. You would need to check for permalink manager plugins to help you further modify your permalink structure for your products.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
