Greetings!

It appears that if a group feed includes a post from a sub-category, the category link itself will point to `/c/:sub-cat` instead of the intended `/c/:parent-cat/:sub-cat`. An example:

[Team Activity feed](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/team/activity/posts) includes a post from techAPJ in [developers under howto](https://meta.discourse.org/c/howto/devs). The link points to `/c/devs` instead of the intended `/c/howto/devs`

Repro steps:

- Have a user in a group post in any sub-category
- Go on to group’s activity feed
- Click on category link for post
- See error page **Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.**
- Double check link, see it’s missing parent category from path
