Premmerce Permalink Manager for WooCommerce Premium delivers a dedicated interface for store permalink settings. Choose URL patterns for products and product categories, then set a main category for product URLs when needed.

Choose product and category URL patterns

Product URLs

• Show only the product slug.
• Combine the product slug with the main category slug.
• Include the product slug and full category hierarchy.

Product category URLs

Show only the category slug, or include the category hierarchy. These settings let you align product and category paths with the catalog structure.

Canonical URLs and Premium options

The plugin adds a rel=canonical attribute to duplicate pages and marks similar URLs as canonical. Its listing states that it generates no duplicate links when Yoast SEO is installed.

Premium adds the option to remove the base from product tag URLs and automatically add 301 redirects to duplicated pages. These controls apply to product tag paths and duplicate page addresses.

Set up the permalink settings

1. Install and activate Premmerce Permalink Manager for WooCommerce Premium.
2. Open the dedicated permalink interface for the store.
3. Choose the desired product and product category URL patterns.
4. Select a main category for product URL generation where needed.
5. Enable the Premium option to remove the product tag base and use automatic 301 redirects for duplicated pages.
6. Review the resulting navigation and URL behavior.

Compatibility and tested setup

The plugin works with base WooCommerce functionality, Yoast SEO, WPML, WooCommerce Multilingual, and Premmerce extensions. It has been tested for compatibility with the main WooCommerce extensions.

Testing with the basic WooCommerce kit and standard Storefront theme included stores with more than 100,000 products; no influence on response rate was noticed in that setup. The plugin is also demonstrated with Storefront and SalesZone themes.
