<p>This plugin allows you to select a main category (or taxonomy) for your posts for nicer permalinks and SEO.</p>
<h3>What it does?</h3>
<p>A custom structure such as <strong>/%category%/%postname%/</strong> should be usually chosen for your permalinks. By default, this %category% is selected automatically (using the lowest ID) in the case your post is assigned to more than one category. This plugin will let you pick the category of your choice from the ‘Post Edit’ page. The chosen category is shown in bold on the ‘Posts List’ page and the ‘Post Edit’ page.</p>
<h3>Posts List</h3>
<p>Below the title, you will see the permalink currently set-up for this entry. If a heart is present, it means that the category (or taxonomy) has been picked up.</p>
<h3>Breadcrumbs</h3>
<p>They have their own way of working and can’t be supported automatically by default because they are created by specific themes or plugins. If you encounter issues with breadcrumbs, please say so in the Support Threads and let’s see how we can make it work.</p>
<h3>Compatibility</h3>
<p>It works with any theme or plugin that creates post types and taxonomies but it looks like it doesn’t work with the plugin called “Types”. You can use “Custom Post Type UI” instead.</p>
<h3>Please contribute</h3>
<p>It works for standard setups, but the plugin might be modified depending on the case. Don’t hesitate to participate in making this plugin better. The official git for this project is here: https://github.com/jordymeow/wp-category-permalink. Thanks to those contributors:</p>

WP Category Permalink

Allows manual selection of a 'main' category for each post for nicer permalinks and better SEO.

<p>When you change the permalink structure then this is a problem for bookmarks of users and also for search engines to link to your posts. This plugin uses the slug of the new url and search for a ID in the database of WordPress. If it finds a post according to the slug, the Plugin will redirect to the correct post and send a header message “moved permanently 301” to change the url on the index of search engines.</p>


Change Permalink Helper

Awesome!

It checks the Permalink and redirects to the new URL, if it doesn't exist. It sends the header message "moved permanently 301"
