 * Is it possible to not use Category Slug option?
 * Instead of showing
    business-directory/wpbdp_category/business-catetory
 * I’d like to show
    business-directory/business-category

 * Hi [@officezen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/officezen/),
 * Thanks for contacting me here.
 * You can adjust that under Directory Admin->Manage Options, General tab. There
   are 3 slugs you can change: categories, tags, and listings. The main “Business
   Directory” part of the slug is changed by altering the page slug itself.
 * I hope that helps.
 * Please let me know if you have any other questions or issues!

 * Sorry, I should have mentioned at the beginning that I already played around 
   witht the slug settings.
 * When I enter nothing in tue categories slug, the category pages all return page
   not found error.

 * Hi [@officezen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/officezen/),
 * Yes, that’s correct–the slug must be a valid value, just like any page requires
   a valid slug. You can make it as short as 1 letter, but it must be something 
   other than blank.
