Easy to use but not working for me

By ebuege on October 23, 2025

I installed this lightweight and easy-to-use plugin due to the URL issues I've been experiencing with RankMath and Polylang for the past 3 days, but unfortunately, nothing has changed for me.
The path */product-category/my_custom_category_name did not change to */my_custom_category_name, and it's still returning a 404 error.

*/product-category/my_custom_category_name this way of URL structure is a must for me now 🙁

Still, thank you.

Best plugin

It does the job!

Perfect! Simple and Just Works

By WolfStack (wolfstack) on October 27, 2023

After hours of wasted time spent trying to make my woocommerce URL structure the way I wanted it, I have been rescued by this simple but powerful plugin.

Woocommerce deafult permalink structure is not very user friendly or logical, with this plugin you can make sure that your permalinks are hierarchical and organised.

Light and full of features

Light and full of features I need, really thank you. Checked and no errors occurred, perfect

By Mahesh Patel (maheshpatel) on October 12, 2023

Before I use other plugin for rewriting the WooCommerce product page rewrite the URL but it's not effectively works.

Thanks for contributing such a great plugin.

Incomplete

By pablohpbh on September 22, 2023

Unfortunately, the plugin only adds 2 category levels.
The first and second category.
For products that have 3 or more categories (sub-levels), the plugin does not generate the complete link. Only with the first two categories.

Simples e eficiente!
