Noted. Thanks Stef.

I hope they find the people who did that, now stalking Philly with glowing skin and natural lips.

Actually, are you contactable via the site you sent me? I might take a look around, because by coincidence, those products align with our shop concept..Not saying one thing or the other, but I may note your info for future questions (not SEO), and I shouldn’t digress any more on this thread…

…hope all is OK in your neck of the woods, BTW.

OK understood. I will definitely check it out in more detail now that I know it’s not yet another US product that I can’t access. The site looks great.

Ha! It seems another night owl is up working on websites too…

Moved from Sydney to South Coast NSW – damn good decision. Funny how the power to create websites makes these things possible.

Thanks friend – you’ve probably saved me days of overthinking this, only minutes after you saved me months of delaying it….lol.

Greetings from Australia.

Hi Stef – yes, sorry, I meant product category vs product page.

It doesn’t seem like there’s an option to remove product-category (or whatever I type instead). It makes more sense to just go straight to the category name, without declaring that the next thing is a category. Blank would be better, but it seems they don’t want blog categories and product categories confused, I guess.

I am also considering using the ‘Standard’ product base setting (site.com/product/sample-product/), because it seems I can’t just have site.com/product-name (ie. no base)….unless I can leave the ‘Custom’ field selected and blank?

It’s odd that there’s not a radio option to make both bases consistent. But perhaps my problem is conflating URL structure with breadcrumbs/navigation. I just figure they should be as close as possible, hence my original confusion….

OK awesome.

So essentially, it’s OK for the product bases to be different (category vs product), it depends on one’s preferences and market etc. But just get it right at the beginning if possible.

Thanks to your insight, I’ll definitely address this pre- first-round of advertising, and I won’t convince myself to delay the issue…

Thanks again.

Great, thanks Stef. Really appreciate that.

I can see you opt for naming them with different bases. I guess I need to have a think about exactly what I want.

My only other question would be: can you recommend a way to handle bulk redirects? I may need to fix all this up with new URLs and that is going to be messy…

Thanks Stef. Nice website.

here are my settings:

I feel it is inconsistent and confusing, but I also can’t change anything until I know the best way to handle redirects…

Thanks again.

@riaanknoetze Thanks, I’ve looked at those threads. it is the same issue. I guess I will await an update that solves this, as the WC team are aware of it. Thnaks again.

@imazed thank you for your reply.

Should I send the system report privately to someone?

Thanks.

@kaushalsheth Thank you – but I’m pretty sure it is WC as nothing else changed. Always happy to double check that though.

@sterndata hanks Steve, yes I realized that an hour or two after I posted. I am going to post there now. Thanks for the link.

Hi Hannah – sorry for the late reply. We’re ready to finally resolve this. However, registering at WordPress.com doesn’t reveal a ticket or help section under ‘My Account’. Did I understand these instructions correctly? It just wants met to write a blog… Thanks.

Hi Yobani – thanks for your response, much appreciated.

I have UpDraft Plus, but the problem pre-dates that. But perhaps it is the popular image replace tool interfering with the process….I might ask them about it before I start pulling things apart. I really can’t think what else it would be. Thanks again for the lead.

I’m going to leave this open for a little while and post the solution when it (hopefully) comes along.
