Category Pagination

  • Hello,
    I’m using the top-level-cats.php plugin to remove /category/ from my URLs, but now when I goto: categoryname/page/# I get an error.

    e.g.
    /catname/page/2 DOESN’T WORK
    /catname/?paged=2 WORKS

    I’ve tried doing a mod-rewrite to fix these jabroni URLs but surprisingly it never worked: RewriteRule ^bleach/([0-9]+)?$ /bleach/?paged=$1 [L] – I got the same error as mentioned above from this. ??

    I’m pretty certain this problem has been asked many times before and possible been fixed? Could someone help me.

    The same problem (as with all category base removal stuff) happens to my test install with this plugin. However, on sub-categories pagination seems to work just fine.

    …the same problem ??

    Same problem. I’ve been unable to get anything to work.

    If you’re using a permalink struct that is /%category%/%postname%/ or %postname%, then the plugin won’t work. It only works with numerical / date permalinks.

    yes, i am getting the same problem for pagination ??

    Also “fil”, with permalink structure /%category%/%postname%/ it will get “404 – NOT FOUND” if you create a post name is a number( for example 12 etc)

    If you use the following it’ll work for you:

    /%category%/%postname%.php

    This is the only method that seems to work in removing /category/ from your permalinks and/or use the Top Level Categories plugin.

    Give that a try.

    Another workaround for the category pagination 404 error is to set the permalink structure like this:
    /%category%/_what_you_want_%postname%
    where “_what_you_want_” may be:
    article
    article/
    article-
    post
    post/
    post-
    er, well, what you want!… ??
