I am using woocommerce 2.4.1 on a self-hosted wordpress 4.3.1 install.

I have WP static pages displaying WC subcategory products. I would like to have these pages be somehow inline with the WC category tree.


For example:

I have the following pages:

example.com/models/

and

example.com/models/ginger-j-and-j-licker/

and here is a typical product url (with "collections" as my shop base)

example.com/collections/feature-models/ginger-j-j-licker/ginger-j-j-licker-6/


Going to:

example.com/collections/

brings up a static page that i have created

but going to:

example.com/collections/feature-models/

brings up a 404

and going to:

example.com/collections/feature-models/ginger-j-j-licker/

redirects to the most recent product in the subcategory

which is all pretty ugly. and people visiting my site have to potentially deal with two separate URL trees- one for my static pages, and the goofy one for woocommerce.


What I would like (for example):

example.com/collections/models/

and

example.com/collections/models/ginger-j-j-licker/

to represent both pages AND woocommerce categories.


I have tried renaming my pages to match the WC urls and removed the shop base from the WC permalinks.. obviously didn't work.

So my question is, how do I sync the two together so there is only one URL 'tree' (am i using this word correctly?) that people have to navigate?

Resolved:

installed a simple 301 redirect plugin and redirected all the offending woocommerce urls. seems to be doing the trick.
