### Note that:

* You cannot change the system part of the category URL (for example, https://yourdomain.com/shop/) — this is defined by the domain you connected to your website.
* Previous category URL works as a 301 redirect to the new one.
* It is not possible to reuse the previous URL (neither in this category nor in another). If the URL becomes archived, it will forever remain a 301 redirect to the new link for this category. It is not possible to remove a URL from the archived list.
* Subsequent changes to the category name do not affect its URL.

5. You can see the list of the old URLs for a particular category by clicking on the link below:
