Sub-categories 404ing
-
I have the plugin installed. All top level categories are resolving just fine, but when I create a new sub-category and then try and go to it I get a 404.
For example: http://www.mysite.com/top-level works just fine
but, http://www.mysite.com/top-level/sub-cat sends me to a 404 pageI saw that the plugin is supposed to support sub-categories in the url. Any clue why this break might be happening and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

Let me clarify something I noticed. When I create a sub-category I can get to the sub-category page by just putting the sub-category name after the forward slash, like http://www.mysite.com/sub-cat
But, http://www.mysite.com/parent-cat/sub-cat does not work
However, when I go to an individual post in my sub-category I can see the parent category and sub-category in the url before the post title
For example: http://www.mysite.com/parent-cat/sub-cat/post-name
I would love to have the parent category and sub-category names in the url for the sub-category page itself. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Mario, thanks for your quick reply. Yes, I have tried that with no luck. However, what does work when I want to go to the sub-cat category page (not an individual post) is to put the parent category “name” instead of its slug into the url.
For example: http://www.mysite.com/parent-cat-NAME/sub-cat-slug
But…
When I want to go to a post in that sub-category the url is:
http://www.mysite.com/parent-cat-SLUG/sub-cat-slug
Why the “name” in one url and the “slug” in the other? This doesn’t make any sense!
