Hello

My category page shows "404 Page not found" error. (Please check the URL)

I have about 10 posts and they are assigned to one category. I have added that category in the main primary menu via ‘categories’ and not via ‘custom links’

Could someone please help me with this?

Thank you!

Hi there

are you using Yoast or another SEO plugin, to remove the Category base? If so check in there it looks like you have '.' that is creating the problem.

Thanks David.

I wasn't using any plugin to remove the "Category" from the permalink but was using "." in Category base. I removed it and it's working now.

Thanks for your help.

David,

I just tried using SEOPress PRO plugin to remove Category from the permalink but it didn't work and I started getting the same 404 Page Not Found error.

Is there any way I can remove Categories from the permalink?

Thank you!

This plugin might be worth trying: https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-category-url/
