    Hello,

    I'm currently using Yoast SEO to remove the category prefix from the url in the archives so that the archive shows: example.com/category-slug instead of example.com/category/category-slug

    The problem is when visiting a subcategory archive, the url looks like: example.com/category-slug/subcategory-slug.

    Is there anyway to remove the category-slug from appearing in front of the sub-category slug, so that it looks like: example.com/subcategory-slug ?

    Thank you.

    My permalinks settings only offer options on how to display the posts (day and name, month and name or plain) and not the url structure of the category (apart from the option of renaming the category base).
