Blog URL issue

Hi !
Sorry to bother you, but I've been facing an issue in the past few days and I can't seem to find a solution.
I'm currently using generatpress for the first time to create a website for one of my clients.
For the SEO optimization of the website, I want to nest all of my category pages in my blog page. For example, I want my article page URL to look like http://www.website.com/blog/category/article/
Using the permalink option on WordPress I've successfully created that kind of URL for my article, but my categories are still in the http://www.website/category/ format. I've tried using the category prefix, but it creates weird redirections to 404 for my articles and category pages.

As the website is under construction, I have only a few add one installed, and I only see rank math as a possible issue here, but I've tried with and without the "remove category base" option, doesn't change much.

Is this a frequent issue with Generatpress, and is it possible to achieve the http://www.website/blog/category/ format ?
Thanks

Hi there,

Is this a frequent issue with Generatpress

GP has absolutely no control over the permalink settings as it's a WP core function and entirely handled by WordPress itself:
https://wordpress.org/support/article/settings-permalinks-screen/

You can test by activating a Twenty series WP theme.

I'd assume RankMath is causing the issue and would recommend checking with their support team.

Hope this helps.
