ParticipantHi,
Using PRO version. I’m trying to have events by cities. For example:
https://mywebsite.com/cityA/events/
https://mywebsite.com/cityB/events/
https://mywebsite.com/cityC/events/so that each would have their events and categories etc:
https://mywebsite.com/cityA/events/category/categoryname/
https://mywebsite.com/cityB/events/category/categoryname/
https://mywebsite.com/cityC/events/category/categoryname/Is this possible?

ParticipantThis is my second query that need your assistance. How to change the word “category” in the url to something else, say “things-to-do” etc.

KeymasterHi Thirukumary,
Thanks so much for reaching out!
Out of the box, this isn’t exactly something that we can do. However one suggestion that I have is to create a parent category for each city and then create child categories for each of those. Or essentially just to assign categories to each city.
In terms of changing the word category, you can try a third-party plugin, like Say What? in order to change the string.
Alternatively, you can follow along with this tutorial in order to change the word “category” to something else:

Let me know how it goes!

ParticipantHi Jaime,
That sounds like a good suggestion. However, does the snippet example you give really change the word “category” in URL https://mywebsite.com/events/category/name/ as from the explanation given in https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/change-the-wording-of-any-bit-of-text-or-string/ sounds like more for changing keyword in website itself and not URL string.
Please advice.
Thanks.

KeymasterI don’t believe that it will change the word “category” in the URL, however you can try to create a custom permalink structure, either through WordPress itself, or with a Custom Permalinks plugin like this one.
I hope this helps, let me know how it goes!
Thanks,
Jaime

ParticipantHi,
Our permalinks on wordpress set for “Post Name: https://mywebsite.com/sample-post/”
However, this does not resolve hiding the word “category” in url or any option to change it. Kindly assist.
Thanks.

KeymasterIf your goal is to hide the word “category” from your URLs, you have a few options.
Just to let you know, we are limited by our Support Policy in how much we can help with customizations, but I will try to point you in the right direction.
One option is to use a third-party plugin like this one to remove the word “category” from your URLs.
This blog post also provides a few different options for how to achieve the results that you are looking for.
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks,
Jaime

KeymasterHey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.
Thanks so much!
