Enables hierarchical URLs, making posts follow categories and parent categories to define their permalink. Assume a blog with the following category structure for posts:

  • Music
    • Rock
    • Pop
  • Food
    • Indian
    • Italian

By default, their URLs will be category/%category-name%. Activating this plugin will end up in URLs like:

  • Music: music
    • Rock: music/rock
    • Pop: music/pop
  • Food food
    • Indian: food/indian
    • Italian: food/italian

For posts inside the Italian food category, for example, the URL will be

food/italian/%postname%

.
