Hello,
I have this URL: http://thelifesquare.com/beauty-style/skin-care/8572808/best-makeup-for-acne-prone-skin/
Which must be without child category, like this: http://thelifesquare.com/beauty-style/8572808/best-makeup-for-acne-prone-skin/
According to wordpress if we select both parent category and Child Category then only parent category should be displayed in URL of the article.
After activating Newspaper theme here is an issue with permalink. I can see same article with two different URL.
Check Screenshot: http://imgur.com/TX5IkrS
I have marked parent category as primary and as wordpress says I can see exactly same URL/Permalink in Edit mode i.e, permalink without subcategory.

Bigger Problem is I can see the old and that ugly URL with subcategory in Sitemap and in home page as well.
Since I can see URL with only parent category in Edit mode but with parent and subcategory in sitemap + homepage.
Please help.
Hello ankits3a,
Please try to change the structure of your permalinks from the panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/j3OWhKPW and then resave it. Also, please try to switch the theme to the default one and check if this behaviour persists or not.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
