WP

GoldFace · 10-05-2010, 03:01 AM

Hello
I am using WP mainly as a CMS : let's say the content is "vegetables"
Therefore my content is organized in the following way.

- HOME

-- Potato
--- Red potato
--- Sweet potato
--- yellow potato

-- Eggplant
--- Round eggplant
--- L-shaped eggplant

My permalinks are :"/pagetitle/" so the search engine list my page as :
veggies . com / Potato / Red potato

BUT
red potato market is very hot, and I would rather have an URL like the following:

veggies . com / Red potato

(no level 1 menu displayed).

How can I do that ? I've checked plenty of websites, but they all give advices on how to modify post titles, and not page titles. I want to avoid redirects since that's really an ugly shortcut.

Thanks

you will need to choose the custom url and add the following into it "%/category%/%postname%.html" this is really important for SEO and do not think of other useless stuff.

This is valid only for WP posts.
Pages are a different matter since the url is domain/menu/submenu

For veggies . com / Red potato your permalink structure is /%postname%/

Is use the same structure and it works great in terms of SEO!
