I’m looking at the documentation of WordPress Permalinks, more specifically, their “Pretty Permalinks“. What makes this hard is that I can’t easily find where they explain the instructions for creating the category/pagename link structure: site.com/category/post-name.html instructions.
What you need to use and seems obvious now is %category%. You’ll need to visit:
‘Options’ => ‘Permalinks’ => ‘Custom’
Insert this in the field:
/%postname%/
This will updated your .htaccess file to read:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
That’s it. Your WordPress links should now look like yoursite.com/post-name.html.
