Hi!
For that you need to change the permalink settings, and edit the functions.php file.
The core files of wordpress are set to /sitename/category/blog. You need to paste this code at the end of the functions.php file
add_filter( 'category_rewrite_rules', 'vipx_filter_category_rewrite_rules' );
function vipx_filter_category_rewrite_rules( $rules ) {
$categories = get_categories( array( 'hide_empty' => false ) );
if ( is_array( $categories ) && ! empty( $categories ) ) {
$slugs = array();
foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
if ( is_object( $category ) && ! is_wp_error( $category ) ) {
if ( 0 == $category->category_parent ) {
$slugs[] = $category->slug;
} else {
$slugs[] = trim( get_category_parents( $category->term_id, false, '/', true ), '/' );
}
}
}
if ( ! empty( $slugs ) ) {
$rules = array();
foreach ( $slugs as $slug ) {
$rules[ '(' . $slug . ')/feed/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)?/?$' ] = 'index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&feed=$matches[2]';
$rules[ '(' . $slug . ')/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$' ] = 'index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&feed=$matches[2]';
$rules[ '(' . $slug . ')(/page/(\d)+/?)?$' ] = 'index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&paged=$matches[3]';
}
}
}
return $rules;
}
And then you’ll need to flush your permalink settings. The way you do that is by going to Settings > Permalinks, and under Common settings select default and save those settings. Then set the permalinks to custom and add /%category%/%postname%/ in the input field. The category base needs to be set to dot ( . ).
Then save those permalink settings.
This should do it.
