CMS sub-categories url structure for SEO

Community resources General

Hi! Working with a client who is needing a specific URL structure to retain SEO on their CMS collections and items. It looks like it would be a parent collection, with multiple sub-collections.

Structure needs to follow this form:
{site}/{parent-collection}/{child-collection}/{collection-item-title}

For example:
{site}/vehicles/cars/red-ferrari
{site}/vehicles/cars/blue-ferrari
{site}/vehicles/cars/green-ferrari
{site}/vehicles/motorbikes/red-ducati
{site}/vehicles/motorbikes/back-triumph

Is there any way to achieve this URL structure without creating separate collection paths, i.e. not:
{site}/cars/red-ferrari
{site}/mototbikes/red-ducati

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Also, to have posts connected directly to the parent collection, i.e.:

{site}/vehicles/yellow-speedboat

In addition to child collections:

{site}/vehicles/cars/red-ferrari
{site}/vehicles/motorbikes/red-ducati

Webflow does not support nested slugs with collections. Only /collection-slug/item-slug. When I need nesting I have to use a different tool.

Thanks, @webdev — got it. Unfortunate!

Which tool do you use for this? Are you saying you use a completely different CMS (not Webflow), like WP or something else?
