Aquesta extensió **no s’ha provat en les darreres 3 versions majors del WordPress**.
Segurament no està mantinguda o suportada, i pot tenir problemes de compatibilitat
quan s’usa en versions recents del WordPress.

## Descripció

Reduce permalinks (category or post) that include entire hierarchy of categories
to just having the lowest category in the hierarchy.

By default, WordPress replaces the %category% permalink tag in a custom permalink
structure with the entire hierarchy of categories for the post’s first matching 
category. For example, assuming your site has a hierarchical category structure 
like so:

    ```
    Applications
      |_ Desktop
      |_ Web
        |_ WordPress
    ```

By default, if you have a permalink structure defined as `%category%/%year%/%monthnum%/%
day%/%postname%`, your post titled “Best Plugins” assigned to the “WordPress” category
would have a permalink of:

    ```
    https://www.example.com/applications/web/wordpress/2008/01/15/best-plugins
    ```

If you activate the Single Category Permalink plugin, this would be the permalink
generated for the post (and recognized by the blog):

    ```
    https://www.example.com/wordpress/2008/01/15/best-plugins
    ```

In order for a category to be used as part of a post’s permalink structure, `%category%`
must be explicitly defined in the Settings -> Permalinks admin page as part of a
custom structure, i.e. `/%category%/%postname%`.

For category links, `%category%` is implied to follow the value set as the “Category
base” (or the default category base if none is specified). So if your category base
is ‘category’, the above example would list posts in the ‘WordPress’ category on
this category listing page:

    ```
    https://www.example.com/category/applications/web/wordpress/
    ```

With this plugin activated, that link would become:

    ```
    https://www.example.com/category/wordpress/
    ```

NOTE: The fully hierarchical category and post permalinks will continue to work.
The plugin issues a 302 redirect to browsers and search engines pointing them to
the shorter URL.

### Hooks

The plugin exposes one filter for hooking. Code using this filter should ideally
be put into a mu-plugin or site-specific plugin (which is beyond the scope of this
readme to explain). Less ideally, you could put them in your active theme’s functions.
php file.

**c2c_single_category_redirect_status (filter)**

The ‘c2c_single_category_redirect_status’ hook allows you to specify an HTTP status
code used for the redirect. By default this is 302.

Arguments:

 * $status (integer) : The default HTTP status code

Example:

    ```
    /**
     * Change the redirection HTTP status to a 302.
     *
     * @param  int $code The HTTP status code. By default 301.
     * @return int
     */
    function scp_change_redirect_status( $code ) {
        return 302;
    }
    add_filter( 'c2c_single_category_redirect_status', 'scp_change_redirect_status' );
    ```

## Instal·lació

 1. Install via the built-in WordPress plugin installer. Or download and unzip `single-
    category-permalinks.zip` inside the plugins directory for your site (typically `
    wp-content/plugins/`)
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ admin menu in WordPress
 3. Use `%category%` as a permalink tag in the `Settings` -> `Permalinks` admin options
    page when defining a custom permalink structure

## PMF

### Will existing links to my site that used the full category hierarchy still work?

Yes, WordPress will still serve the category listings and posts regardless of whether
it is of the full category hierarchy format or just the single category format. 
But do note that WordPress doesn’t perform any sort of redirects; it responds directly
to the category/post URL requested.

### Could this give the appearance that I have duplicate content on my site if pages are accessible via the full category hierarchy permalink format and the single category permalink format?

Whether this plugin is active or not, WordPress treats both types of category links
the same. This plugin will however issue redirects for all of the non-canonical 
category and post permalink pages to point to the single category link version.

### What can this plugin do for me if I don’t use `%category%` in my custom permalink structure?

In addition to handling custom permalink structures (used to generate permalinks
for posts) that contain `%category%`, the plugin also shortens category archive 
links. WordPress by default generates those links in a fully hierarchical fashion
which this plugin will reduce to a single category. See the Description section 
for an example.

### Does this plugin include unit tests?

Yes.
