   I am currently building a site that will go out in issues (issue 11, issue 12 etc) and would like my permalinks to reflect this. However I do not know how to go about it. Currently, the permalinks use the %category%/%postname%/ layout but I would like them to look like http://example.com/issue/11/category/sub-category/postname. To save time, I understand that default is for wordpress to grab the category with the lowest ID and use that as the base.

   Thanks in advance

   Hi

   You may be better off using a permalink of /%postname&/

   In Admin/Settings/Permalinks you can change the CategoryBase to issue, which means in the permalink, instead of the word category you will see the word issue.

   if you make these changes and the permalink for the category "Issue 11" is set to 11, your URL will look like
   http://example.com/issue/11/sub-category/postname
