    I saw one wordpress blog using category and sub category in url. His url structure is like this.
    www.mysite.com/category/subcategory/postname

    When i little research on that. i found older thread which says. you add /%category%/%postname%/ in permalink. But when i updated this on wordpress. My url structure was like this www.mysite.com/category/postname. sub category is missing from here.

    Any wordpress expert help me in this. also, i found this on workdpress

    Yes, you are right there.
    You can only customize with /%postname%/
    From now on, make sure you give a category and description in according to it. Then, drag the category menu to the theme sidebar.

    Best of success
    Cheers!

    Finally, i figured out if you have category and sub category. select only one sub category. you will see the url, which i was expecting. thanks

    I didn't even know you could create a subcategory. If you can I'm sure it's not easy to do it. You need to read up on some Wordpress tutorials to find the answer you're looking for. I'm sure there are plenty of sites that focus on Wordpress that will let you find the info you need. Good luck.
