Excellent plugin for creation of tags and categories. It has solved the problem of creating tags for me. i would like to suggest to give us opportunity to go to settings of the plugin from wordpress plugins window.
Thank you very much for this plagin!
But i was not able to assign it correctly.
I ve got a category(page) called freebooks, but the content of
the page won’t appear in that page. Could you guys help me about this?
‘freebooks’ => ‘freeboks’. I do not get this slug thing.
Thank you!
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?
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.”
This plugin is great. Hopefully it gets updated soon!
