# Weird Problem Found with Permalinks

 * This Plugin breaks my Permalink Structure. No matter what the default permalink
   is set to, either Shop base, Shop/Category or Product Base. This plugin if activated
   changes all my permalinks to Product base.
 * Generally when Shop base if activated, ‘Shop’ will display in breadcrumbs. If
   Product base permalink is activated, ‘Shop’ will not be shown in breadcrumbs.
 * If I had previously set the permalink structure to Shop base, after activating
   this plugin, ‘Shop’ still shows in the breadcrumbs and site permalinks changes
   to ‘Product’ based.

 * Hi [@smartdiyer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/smartdiyer/),
 * Are you using WooCommerce? If so, please check these documentations:

 * If the issue continues, could you share us the error messages from the debug.
   log file?
 * You can also try to switch to a default WP theme and deactivate your plugins 
   one by one temporarily until the issue disappears (to identify the plugin conflicting).
 * Thanks.

 * Hey Thanks for reply. I reinstalled your plugin on another domain with generate-
   press theme just for testing purpose.
    Here too, I have observed the same problems.
   My Permalinks are set to: /shop/%product_cat%/ My Product URL before: domain/
   shop/hand-tools/bolt-cutters/product-name/ After Activating Plugin, URL: domain/
   product/product-name/ (Turns 404) After Clearing Transients in Woo, Product URL
   shows: domain/product/product-name/ (Works Fine) Site Permalinks Still stay Same:/
   shop/%product_cat%/ No Debug Log File Created, since there wasn’t any error My

    Later Shifted to Default WP Theme. Issue still persists. I am totally confused
   as why other users haven’t faced this issue yet..

 * ====Update==
 * Disabled All Plugins except Woo,
    Set Default Theme, Permalinks @ /shop/%product_cat%/
 * SAME ISSUE PERSISTS. Permalinks automatically changes to Product Type

 * Hi [@smartdiyer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/smartdiyer/),
 * Oh yes, currently the plugin changes the permalink to put “product”. Unfortunately,
   right now I don’t think there is a way to do that. As long as multiple-products
   and product syncing is turned on, the slug seems to be forced to “product” – 
   it is a limitation of the product syncing process. I’ve added it to our list 
   of things for future enhancements to the plugin.
 * Thanks for understanding.
