Clean url without category was created by kalixo

Dear all,
I set everything to avoid category in my url's, but the category still apperas in link.
Is it possible and safe to remove category from url link?

I wish to have clean url's "domain.com/article456.html", but I have "domain.com/category/article456.html".
Do I need to use external component to trim the category from the link or is it spossible to do that by K2 natively?

Thanks in advance,
best ragars,
Kalixo

Hi,

Go to K2 parameters, then go to advanced tab. Scroll down to Advanced SEF settings.

Click NO for category ID in URL.

I think that should work.

Hello Kalixo,

This has been resolved in the upcoming 2.7 version.
You can get the DEV version from: getk2.org/assets/get/

Hello Master Krikor,
thank you very much, so it's not possible yet.

Can you tell me how far is it from the official release? Is it a big risk to install it?

Best regards,
Kalixo

Hehehe :)
Not a risk. Backup first in order to ensure that nothing can go wrong.

Hi again Mr. Krikor!
It seems that DEV version works great, and what is also important it looks great :)

But I still don't know how to get rid of the category from url :(

Could you please advise how to do it?

@kalixo

Just make sure that the option "Prefix for item URLs" is set to "None".
