Blog & categories: not showing /blog/article-sample.html for categoried articles?

Post by djcaptpln880 » Mon Feb 12, 2024 1:43 am

Greetings

Thx in advance

Not sure if this makes sense or not.

I wish to have *all* articles with the base to be /blog/category/article.html

Instead when I get now is when I click on a category it shows hostname.com/category/article.html

However

When I click on the blog link it shows /blog/article.html

How do I get all articles to have base /blog/categories/article.html?

It will following your Menu structure. The Menu Item 'category" must have 'Blog' as Parent.

If you want to go "crazy" with it, you can always create a "virtual" nested structure with menu Item Type: Separator (it is in System Links). Separators are not links but do create a URL result as you want it. This is not a hack at all, it's legit practice.
