Removed all master categories, URL change required

Hi Guys / Girls,

We recently removed our 'shop for men' and 'shop for women' categories on our site. However, the old URL that took a visitor to the men's master category is still in place. Anyone now how to change it back? Our site is here

The URL should simply be: https://www.alwaysriding.co.uk

Thanks!

Pete

Re: Removed all master categories, URL change required

Actually guys, this might not be a URL rewriting thing etc. There must be something else required to make the URL happen naturally, as the master categories URLS are looking odd.

Anyone have any suggestions? Anyone removed their main top level categories before and learned anything?

Thanks in advance.

Pete

Thinking some more, perhaps the solution is in the define main page file in html includes?

Answers welcome!

Re: Removed all master categories, URL change required

All of your categories have rewritten URLs, but your homepage looks like it has a specific search result coded in. I would check into your URL rewrite mod. Looking at define_main_page couldn't hurt either...
