  • Hi there,

    Thank you for reaching out to us for assistance with your WordPress site. I understand you’re looking to create specific category slugs for your site, but are encountering issues with the format WordPress is defaulting to.

    I’d like to clarify that your website is currently hosted on a different hosting provider and uses the free, open-source version of WordPress software. At WordPress.com, we offer managed hosting services, which means our support capabilities are focused on sites hosted directly on our platform. This limitation in our support scope is why we’re unable to assist with technical issues on sites not hosted by us.

    However, I can provide some information about our managed hosting services at WordPress.com. Our hosting solution offers a range of benefits including enhanced security, performance optimizations, and dedicated support. You can learn more about our hosting services here: https://wordpress.com/hosting/

    If you’re considering moving your site to our hosting, we have an easy-to-use migration plugin that simplifies the process. This tool is designed to help you seamlessly transfer your site to WordPress.com without the technical complexities often associated with site migration. For more information about this plugin and how to use it, please visit:

    In the meantime, for immediate assistance with your current setup, I recommend reaching out to the community support forums for the open-source version of WordPress. The community there is well-versed in the nuances of the open-source platform and is in the best position to help you with the specific issue you’re facing regarding category slugs. You can find help at this address: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

    I hope this information is helpful, and we look forward to the possibility of hosting your site on WordPress.com in the future.
