In this guide, we will learn how to remove the "category" prefix in the slug of your WordPress Categories. The default WordPress category slug adds a prefix, typically "/category/". For example, if your category name is WordPress, in that case, the URL is displayed as: https://googletopper.com/category/WordPress. However, you can change or remove the Category Base prefix easily in WordPress. Removing the category base prefix from the slug can result in shorter and more readable URLs. And will look like https://googletopper.com/WordPress.
