    Hi,
    I am new to EE and trying to add a blog section to my project.
    I am trying to create an url structure like this:

    <a href="http://website.com/blog/category1/post-cat1">http://website.com/blog/category1/post-cat1</a>
    <a href="http://website.com/blog/category2/post-cat2">http://website.com/blog/category2/post-cat2</a>
    ...

    When going to “http://website.com/blog” I want to show all posts in the blog channel.The entries should link to the single entry pages of the corresponding categories “http://website.com/blog/category1/post-cat1”.

    How can I access the correct categories, to build the links to the single entries, within the channel entries loop?

    Thnx

    Hey soundseller,

    Welcome to EE 😊

    Unfortunately this URL structure isn’t supported out of the box. I suggest you check out the add-on Low Seg2Cat, which should do what you’re trying to accomplish.

    I’m going to move this to the “community help” forum, so others can weigh in their say, since this deals with something that isn’t supported out of the box.

    Thanks!
