    Default How do I move category but keep the same url?

    I want to move existing categoryA which has url .../index.php?main_page=index&cPath=13
    into another categoryB and make that categoryA a subcategory of CategoryB. But when I move it, the categoryA now has url .../index.php?main_page=index&cPath=18_13

    How to keep the same url of categoryA?

    This is for SEO purposes of course

    Default Re: How to move category but keep the same url

    How to keep the same url of categoryA?
    You can't. By moving the category, you have changed its position, you can put up a 301 permanent redirect though and not lose you ranking.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.
