• Every permalink configuration seems to work OK on my site except this one. I cannot access multi-page articles when placed into subcategories:

    /%category%/%postname%/

    This struck me as odd so I looked around for any clues being displayed within the links on my site and I found that if I hover my mouse pointer over the category names in my navigation bar, these links are displayed in the following manner:

    sitename/category/categoryname

    The word “category” is included when I go to a category and is followed by the actual category name. So, if I visit the category “dogs” and do not click on a post, my URL looks like this:

    https://sitename.com/category/dogs

    I would rather it read like this:

    https://sitename.com/dogs

    Of course this doesn’t address the malfunctioning permalink /%category%/%postname%/ but I’m hoping they are some how related.
