I think the point OP was trying to make was that the solution should be generalized to work for all situations where multiple categories are selected for any post, irrespective of the primary category involved.

You’re on point! The problem is that multiple valid URL are being created and it’s messing with my Google Search Console links.

I used “primary category” a couple of times above. But it seems WordPress has no such notion

Actually, when I’m picking the categories for my post it lets me select one as the main category. And when I press “view post” after publishing, WordPress takes me to the URL with the main article in it. The problem is it can also be accessed replacing the category in the URL with any other category picked for the article.

If possible, I would like it to work like Dexerto. In the following example, you can swap “youtube” with any other category and it will redirect you to the main ULR with youtube in it:

Thanks, but I don’t understand where should I put this code? And “news” was just an example. Is Chatgpt accurate when it comes to WordPress stuff?

I solved it by installing Yoast SEO and using it as default in the theme’s “customize” options.

Same issue here!

Thanks for the answer! I still feel it’s necessary since without it I get 33/10 on mobile just because there is a video or a large content in my posts!

Correction: It doesn’t start working after going idle on mobile. What happens is only the top half of the touchscreen is recognizing when I tap. I cant interact with anything under the lower half other than scrolling.
