When I activate; Remove product category base It removes the product category as described. However, all pages I my site disappear and revert to a default “shop” category. Where did all my pages go?
“I” = in
photographic-elements.com
I currently have the Remove product category base unchecked.
When I click on “blog” from menu, the following is displayed where the posts should be;
No products found which match your selection.
Hi,
Can you give me access to Wordpress and email me the details so i can take a closer look.
Thanks
I emailed the login info and have not heard back. Did you receive the info?
Didn’t see the email but just checked again and it went into the spam folder (not too sure why). I’ll have have a look as soon as i get the chance and let you know.
Still waiting for assistance with the above.
I emailed about a week ago. Please check your email.
Please re-email. The email never arrived and it’s not in my junk folder.

Hello, I’m searching to set my url like this: mysite.com/shop/category for a product category and mysite.com/shop/category/product for a single product. With woocommerce, it is not possible to set the same base ‘shop’ for both category and product, it makes 404 in this case for the product page. Is it possible to do that with your plugin?
Thanks
Hi,
The plugin doesn’t allow you to change the category or product base since that functionality is already in the Woocommerce core. It only allows you to remove the bases altogether if you need to.
I understand why you would be getting a 404 page when you set the base to be the same, but currently there is no way to fix the issue in Woocommerce or the plugin.
To be honest, the issue isn’t with Woocommerce but rather in the way Wordpress handles URL rewrites. It is possible to get what you want, it just requires a bit of custom work.
Sorry i couldn’t help much
Thanks
Thanks a lot for your answer.
If I understand well what your’re saying, it is possible to remove the product base, is it? I first thought it was possible only on categories.. It would already be a better solution than the default one in woocommerce..
Hi,
No, The plugin can only remove the product category base and not he product base. Its a feature that been requested quiet a bit but it causing a lot of problems with URL rewrites so I’ve left it out. I might add it in if i can find a more elegant solution 
Argh, it means that it would be difficult to me to implement that! Thanks
Hi, right now i have website under Joomla, im thinking to migrate to Wordpress and Woocommerce, the question is if i can keep the urls like are now.
This is the website http://celularescostarica.co.cr/
Cheers
Hi,
The plugin generates its own URLs based on your config. You might be able to get the same URLs but i can’t be 100% sure. It might be a good idea to put any Urls that do not work as you want directly into the .htaccess file so you don’t get any dead links. There are plenty of wordpress plugins that allow you to do this easily. Might be worth checking those out.
Hope that helps
Thanks
Hi,
Using Genesis Agency Theme with WooCommerce and Woocommerce SEO plugin.
How do I change the Shop Base Page <title> and <description>?
I have added custom SEO content to the PAGE that is associated with the ONLINE STORE, but all that shows in the browser <title> is Product.
http://delmanwatchservice.com/online-store/I have looked in the Woocommerce SEO settings but nothing about the Shop Base Page meta tags.
Thanks
Hi,
The plugin doesn’t include a way to change the meta details of the shop page since its a normal wordpress page and meta details for it would have been handle by whatever wordpress seo plugin you are using.
It could be useful for us to add something that handles this in the event that you are not using a wordpress seo plugin (which I assume is the case with you).
We will look into it.
Using the Genesis Framework and Child Theme there is SEO functionality for individual Pages. However the custom SEO added to the Woocommerce Base Shop “Page” is not showing as the <title> and <description>.
Maybe this is a question for Genesis or Woocommerce…????
Maybe. Not too sure. But the Woocommerce SEO plugin doesn’t handle the meta for that page at all
Hi!
I installed Woocommerce SEO to our site which is a Multisite Setup. I activated the Plugin just per site, but when it’s activated the Network site Backend is inaccessible. It just shows up a white site. When it is deactivated everything works fine.
Do you have any solutions for that?
Thanks 
Hi,
To be honest I’m not too sure. The live preview of the item is set up on a multi site installation and it works fine. It’s doesn’t halp that there is no error either. If you could try again but turn on WP_DEBUG it might show an error that will help.
Thanks
Hi,
Please I currently have something like this on my product pages, mysite.com.com/product/mike-williams/ BUT I want this instead, mysite.com.com/authors/mike-williams/. That is, I want to replace the “product” in the url with “authors”, is this possible?
Please let me know. If yes, please how do i do it? Or alternatively, what can I achieve with your own plugin?
Regards Victor
Hi,
My plugin doesn’t change the product base because that functionality is already built into Woocommerce. There is an option under settings to change the product base.
Thanks for your response. Will you be so kind as to tell me where exactly I should go in woocommerce settings to change this? Please?
I have found it. Many thanks Ninja. God Bless.
No problem 
- is the script updated with the lates WP & WC? WC Version: 2.0.13 WP Version: WP 3.6
- what is the difference bet your plugin to WooCommerce – All in One SEO Pack?
Hi,
Yes the plugin works with the latest versions of Wordpress and Woocommerce.
Cant really comment on he difference between the two plugins but I’m sure you can figure it out just by checking out the features of both.

Answered above.
Hi, I would like to use your plugin alongside yoasts plugin. You mention in a previous response that we need to stop yoasts plugin from managing the ‘product’ post type and the ‘product_cat’ type. I didn’t find on the Internet the way to do that. Do you have any documentation or any link on this topic ?
Thank you Anthony.
Hi,
The option to disable post type was is on yoasts plugin but for some reason it was removed some versions ago. I’m now looking into some how either overriding parts of yoasts plugin or giving Woocommerce SEO priority over it.
I’ll let you know once we get the plugin updated
Thanks
Hi,
Did you update the plugin as you explain above? I’m still interested in this plugin.
Regards,
Kinda, I’m still testing it and trying to get a few other bits working for the update.
Hi,
Do you have any planning/date for the update? I get no news so I wonder if you’re actively working on it or not.
Regards,
Hi,
Apologies for not getting back to you sooner. A few things have come up so I’ve had to put this on hold but I’ll get back on it as soon as i can. Can’t give a time frame since i really don’t know. But i want to get the update out as soon as possible so i won’t delay it any longer than i need to.
Hi I purchased plugin from you. How can I setting? I can not understanding. Could you give me a document? or you can setting for me? Now I use another yoast seo plugin. this plugin is compatible your plugin? thank you.
Hi,
There is documentation provided in the zip that you downloaded. It contains all the information you need get the plugin up and running.
thank you but I have a question now I url is mywebsite.com/shop/product name when I change url is mywebsite/product-name
excluded post types and Taxonomies product_cat? I think is right?
Im not too sure what your asking, but yes, you need to exclude the product post type and the product_cat taxonomy.
thank you for your reply.
Now, I had changed a exclude the product post type and the product_cat taxonomy.
I mean Now My URL is mydomain.com/shop/product-name. I want to change URL is mydomain.com/product-name. How can i removed /shop/? Do I need to modify the previous url? thank you.
The plugins doesn’t currently allow you to remove the /shop base. We’ve tries removing it but it caused too many problems so we left it out. We might add it again in the future once we can get a stable enough solution.
Hope that helps.
I sent an email. Please check it my email. thank you.
Hi,
I’ve replied but keep getting a bounce back from your server.
I did not received your email. Please check it.
Hi
Hope you can help, not sure if this is woo, theme, google, yoast or woo-seo thing.
I am running a store that just went live.
5000 products and uses variation a lot
I am getting about 1000 crawl errors a day from G webmaster.
http://dynashop.co.uk/?product_variation=product-9168-variation-7I have excluded variation in the sitemap of Yoast.
Any ideas?
Thanks
mark
Hi Mark,
It sounds to me like its the exclusions you have added that are causing the problem. When i go to the link you’ve posted, it forwards me straight onto the homepage. I’m assuming when Google tries to access that page, it get forwarded too, but Google might also get a HTTP error code sent to it (503, 404 etc).
I’m no expert so don’t take my word for it but its very unlikely to be the Woocommerce SEO plugin.
Maybe you will find some clues here https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35120?hl=en
Sorry i couldn’t help you any further.
Hi,
Thats ok, i know it was out of the remit or to do with your plugin.
I think its to do with the site map.
Mark
Plugin stopped working for me today randomly, after about a month working perfectly. No new plugins added to the mix. No updates.
I Deactivated. Reactivated. Saved Permalinks. No success.
Then updated Woocommerce to 2.0.13. No success.
Currently running: WordPress 3.5.1 Woocommerce 2.0.13 Woocommerce SEO 1.1.1
Any ideas? I’m running some ugly URL’s right now without your plugin haha. And I know a ton of links are now broken. Please help. Thanks
Replied to you email. We’ll continue support through email.
On activating your plugin, it disturbs admin end features, we cannot add or update posts, we cannot update pages, after clicking the update button , it gives us a blank white screen. When we deactivate your plugin everything works super.
so what’s the fix?
Hi,
Apologies for the late reply. We haven’t come across any of the problems that you describe. Can you tell me the version of Wordpress, Woocommerce and Woocommerce SEO you are using.
Please email me (support@codeninjas.co) the details so the comments dont get clutered up with support queries and i’ll try and help you fix the problem.
Thanks
I have 2 questions: 1 – Can i use this plugin also with “WordPress SEO by Yoast” without problems? 2 – Can I publish products without Category in the url For example instead http://celularescostarica.co.cr/category/samsung-galaxy-s4 to put http://celularescostarica.co.cr/samsung-galaxy-s4
Hi,
1. You can use this plugin with Wordpress SEO plugin but you will need to set Wordpress SEO to not handle anything for the ‘product_cat’ taxonomy and the ‘product’ post type.
2. I think you have the bases mixed up. You can remove the product category base using this plugin however the default product base is ‘product_category’. The ‘category’ base you mention is Wordpresses own category base which this plugin does not remove.
Hope that helps
Thanks
Hi, I´m looking for a solution like this but I would like to remove also the “product” part of the URL. For example in your demo, when I click on the product this is the URL: /product/tshirts/asteroids-rock/ . It is possible to remove the “product” part and leave only the /tshirts/asteroids-rock/ ?
Hi, it is possible to remove the product base but the feature isn’t included in plugin currently. The reason being is that when we added the feature we found that the urls would conflict with Wordpresses own urls and is very much dependent on the users and how they have their permalinks set. We decided against adding it for this reason. However, as you can see from previous comments it has been requested before so were looking into adding it in the next update. We wil llet you know once its done.
Hi , can i add seo titles & description for my products categories page?
For example http://www.buybuy.sg/portable-bathtubs/ this is a cetgory which will display all products of portable bathtub.
I want to add SEO title and description for this page.
Thanks
Yes you can. Please read the documentation for instructions on how to do this.
Latest wordpress and woocommerce got this error:
“Warning: array_key_exists() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in ../public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-seo/woocommerce-seo.php on line 94”
When “Remove product category base” activated, category page template have 404 error
Hey fruitfulcode,
Tested both and im not getting any errors. Can you confirm your using Woocommerce SEO 1.1? Please email me (support@codeninjas.co) so i can investigate further.
Thanks
I’m currently using Yoast to handle all my SEO, but I would like to remove the /shop/ in the url. Will using this plugin work fine along with yoast?
Thanks
Hi,
It will work fine alongside yoasts plugin. You will need to stop yoasts plugin from managing the ‘product’ post type and the ‘product_cat’ type.
However, this plugin does not remove the /shop base from the URL at the moment.
Thanks
