I have tried

Step 1

Joomla 3.0.2: This is the only way I got it working. If you find another way, please let us know!
Edit “components/com_content/router.php“, then continue on step 2.
Remember, you’ll probably have to re-do this step every time you update Joomla.

Step 2 (There are two places need to do this change, one near the top, one in the middle)
Replace this:

$advanced = $params->get('sef_advanced_link', 0);
With this:

$advanced = $params->get('sef_advanced_link', 1);


Step 3
You want to edit your router.php file:
- From: ->where($db->quoteName(‘alias’) . ‘ = ‘ . $db->quote($db->quote($segment)));
- To: ->where($db->quoteName(‘alias’) . ‘ = ‘ . $db->quote($segment));

Then its showing 404 Not found error

The best way to turn off the category option from your url is to use sh404sef. This extension is a must-have extension for any joomla site. It works fine with Joomla component & K2 component.

I would agree to use SH404 or AceSEF. They offer much more in terms of configuration.
