WP No Base Permalink

by kallookoo

Version: 1.0

Download
Description

Removes category base from your category permalinks (optional). By default is enabled.
Removes parents categories from your category permalinks (optional).
Removes tag base from your tag permalinks (optional).

The three options above are optional and generate their own rewrite rules.

Compatible with WPML Plugin and WordPress Multisite.

Read the FAQ before use.

  1. Upload the ‘wp-no-base-permalink’ folder to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  3. You sould now be able to access your categories without category base.
  4. You can optionally configure other options from the permanent links page.

Won’t this conflict with posts/pages?

Simply don’t have a post/page and category or tag ( if you you use this option ) with the same slug. Warning!!!, if they have the same slug will prioritize the category or tag slug.

The plugin has been uninstalled, but the slug /category/ or /tag/ did not reappear why?

A particular installation does not allow the rewrite feature in disabling the plugin. Try after disabling the plugin, save permanent links again.

very good

Best category base killer (tag too)

By palmtek on August 15, 2020

I went through all the options. I refuse to use Yoast; can't stand it. Many of the other category base removers break stuff or their plugin breaks completely at some point. This one works well, set redirects, and allows the removal of the tag taxonomy if you please. Tags seem to be pointless as well. Please keep this one alive.

Brilliant

Thank you for sharing this plugin!

Works as advertised

Works great. My interest in it is removing the tag base, and it does that well. Not immediately clear that the plugin adds new options to the Settings > Permalink page (the category base is removed by default, but the tag base isn't--you have to enable that option).

"Remove Parents Category" option is genius!

By OneWordPresser on December 6, 2017

This plugin made my life easier with the "Remove Parents Category" option. And everything else works perfectly; as described. Thank you for making this plugin available and keep it updated!! 🙂

easy and solves the problem

easy and solves the problem

Working, thanks for the tag base! More features please 🙂

By techsmurfy on February 3, 2017

First of all a huge thank you, it's the only working plugin I could find that removes the tag base. So PLEASE KEEP IT UPDATED (:fear of future WP incompatibilities:) The only essential thing missing is removing parent categories in post permalinks as well (right now I have to use this in conjunction with Single Category Permalink plugin to remove parent categories from everywhere). You can also add support for custom taxonomies, author slugs etc.

Does the job!

It solves the main issue with category permalinks. Simple and effective.
