Removing the URL seq_no
If you are interested in removing the seq_no in the URL Please read the following first.
This will cause issues with the Navigation Sidebar for Elegant Layouts if you have one. Also it will default the article breadcrumbs and bottom navigation to the primary category, just like how the default WordPress behavior works ( Yoast is the same ).
Please note that typically articles belong to only one category. The seq_no is not used for those articles. If article belongs to more than one category, then WordPress / Yoast SEO adds a canonical link tag that clearly indicates this is a duplicate content.
If you need to apply this code, please speak with your web developer.
// Removes the seq no in URL
add_filter( 'article_with_seq_no_in_url_enable', '__return_true');
