Posts URL structure like site.com/category/the-post-title

I’m new with wordpress and I would like to understand better if it’s possible to create pages with an url based on the category and then the post title, so:

something like http://mysite.com/category-name/the-post-title
or http://mysite.com/category-name/12345 (the post id)
or http://mysite.com/category-name/12345/the-post-title

does exist some plug-in do this or should I consider other ways like url_rewrite to do this?

  1. Yes, any of those are possible and configurable under Settings > Permalinks. Have a look at the Permalinks page for other possibilities.

    One thing to note though, it’s suggested to add a number at the beginning of your permalinks to reduce the number of rewrite rules WordPress has to generate to resolve all of your URLs.

    The permalink strings for your examples would be:

    /%category%/%postname%
    
    /%category%/%post_id%
    
    /%category%/%post_id%/%postname%
