Ok just found what I needed, it’s a simple setting on the options/permalinks admin page. And I was expecting it to be complicated…
One thing though. If I try to directly access the base category URL http://mydomain.com/categories/ I get a wp 404 page. Is there any way of redirecting this request to something more useful, like an ‘Show All’ category?
jpmcc thanks, and yes it was easy.
One thing, I now don’t have a page with my posts on. I can access individual categories and archive pages. How would I create a page that has all my latest posts and dosen’t appear to be an archive?
How about changing the category base to something else? I’m doing a bit of SEO and would like to put something a bit more descriptive and relevant in the URL.
Can this be done?
