Simple URLs without category names

[LDDG]

I know this might be a stupid question and the option might be right there in my face but I just can't see it. I have a database with multiple categories and the URL for the records will have the categories name in it. I do not want this.

How can I have my website display articles from my database as this:

www.mywebsite.com/record-title

instead of the way it is now, where the URL shows the category name such as this:

www.mywebsite.com/category/record-title

In other words, I want the URLs to all my records to have only the website and record title.

 

Thanks in advance!

Anyone has any idea about this? Or at least guide me in the right direction. ?

You already found a plugin that helps with that. That’s the only freely available option. 

Why do you need to remove them by the way? It can help with SEO if good keywords are repeated there.
