# Restrict Permalink Categories

 * I have a custom permalink structure /%category%/%postname%.html. My posts have
   more than 1 category, but I would like the permalink to be created from 1 subset
   of categories and not the other. How would I hack WP so that I can restrict the
   creation of permalinks to a certain set of categories (or sub-categories)?
 * For instance, let’s say I want permalinks to be created from children of cat 
   id 26 only. How would I do this? Thanks!
