I have a wordpress blog which has categories and subcategories. I have set permalinks to /%postname%/ .
When ever i click on any category, i get page url in this format:
hxxp://domain_name.com/category/category_name/

and when i click on subcategory i get:
hxxp://domain_name.com/category/category_name/subcategory_name/

I want to show both above in this format:
hxxp://domain_name.com/category_name-articles

So problem is how to do it? is there any plugin for this ? Or what changes in codes required?

Thanks for you time.

Do not put the / in front when you enter your nice permalink. The Wordpress system will automatically add a / in front. You can enter this:

%category%-%postname%

This should work just fine.

Unless you have some kind of SEO plugin that interfered with the setting. Then, you should check the setting of that plugin. One I could think of is All-In-One-SEO plugin.

Hope it helps
