Title: WooCommerce Permalink issue Last modified: July 13, 2024 --- # WooCommerce Permalink issue * Resolved [lucas81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucas81/) * (@lucas81) * [1 year, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-permalink-issue/) * I’d like my URL structure to be like this: Shop page: [http://www.url.com/products/](http://www.url.com/products/) Product category page: [http://www.url.com/products/category/](http://www.url.com/products/category/) Product page: [http://www.url.com/product/product-name/](http://www.url.com/product/product-name/) Where the breadcrumbs should be like this: Home / Products / Category / Product- nameThis would be a very logical option to me, however I cannot get it done. Closest I get is hiding the shop page and adding a category `Products` above all products but then the url of this page will be [http://www.url.com/products/products/](http://www.url.com/products/products/) Any suggestions?

Something like, use /products/% product_cat%/. * ![](https://i0.wp.com/s12.gifyu.com/images/StRUE.gif?ssl=1) * This should give you the desired URL structure for your product categories. However, for individual product pages, WooCommerce by default adds /product/ before the product name in the URL. To remove this, you would need a plugin like [Premmerce Permalink Manager for WooCommerce](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-permalink-manager/). * > Where the breadcrumbs should be like this: Home / Products / Category / Product- > name * This depends on the theme. However, you can use a plugin like [Breadcrumb NavXT](https://wordpress.org/plugins/breadcrumb-navxt/), [Rank Math SEO](https://wordpress.org/plugins/seo-by-rank-math/) or [Yoast SEO](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/). These plugins allow you to customize your breadcrumb path. * Please be aware that changing the URL structure can affect your SEO. It’s recommended to create redirects from your old URLs to your new ones to prevent 404 errors. * I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. * Thread Starter [lucas81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucas81/) * (@lucas81) * [1 year, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-permalink-issue/#post-17889680) * Hi Shameem, thanks for responding. Basically from the current situation all I want is for the label `Products` to appear before the breadcrumb, which links to the shop page. No URL’s are changed. * Every suggestion you posted I get some result but not the desired one. I use Rankmatch Pro which enables me to remove the categorie slug but this affects all categories, not just the top level one. * Basically I would be ok if there is just some way to insert the shop page as a first level item in the breadcrumb. Like this: Home -> Product-category -> Product-titleHome -> Shop page -> Product-category -> Product-title * Any way this would be possible? * Plugin Support [Shameem – a11n](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shameemreza/) * (@shameemreza) * [1 year, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-permalink-issue/#post-17890024) * Hi [@lucas81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucas81/) * In this case, you might need to use custom code to achieve it.
