Works like a charm

Big thanks to Sandeep,
The plugin works well.

I just want to ask what happens to URL of pages from SEO perspective.
I have pages
domain.com/products/itemType1_PageA
domain.com/products/itemType1_PageB

domain.com/products/itemType2_PageC
domain.com/products/itemType2_PageD

Now when I create category itemType1 new URL is created:
domain.com/category/itemType1

Where itemType1_PageA and itemType1_PageB are listed.

My question is will the new URL interfere with existing links or not?

Crash with Yoast SEO
by Mr. Gedanggoreng·5 years ago

Please do fix. This plugin crash with Yoast SEO. When I created new page, the Category option did appear but the categories under it didn’t showing up. And there is an error sentence “An error occurred loading the Yoast SEO primary taxonomy picker.”
