title: Wordpress Category Link get_category_link(id)
body: <p>I need to link to a category in my wordpress site. The following code works, somewhat:</p>
  
  <pre><code>                &lt;?php
   // Get the ID of a given category
   $category_id = get_cat_ID( 'People' );
  
   // Get the URL of this category
   $category_link = get_category_link( $category_id );
      ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My problem is that it includes /category/ in the url, which isn't how my permalink structure is designed. Does anyone know a way around including /category/ in the url it outputs?</p>
