Category base and Tag base Permalink in WordPress

  • On the WordPress dashboard, go to Settings → Permalinks Screen.
  • Under the Optional settings area of the same screen, you may also set custom category and tag bases for your site.
  • The prefixes Category base and Tag base are used in category and tag archives’ URLs.
  • Example:
    • example.net/category_base/category_name
    • example.net/tag_base/tag_name
  • Category and tag are the default values for Category base and Tag base, respectively. You can edit them, but you won’t be able to eliminate them entirely from the URLs.
  • Use %category% with multiple categories on a post
