How to change the store slug URL?
If you want to change a stores slug URL store name, please place the function below into your child theme:
add_filter( 'register_post_type_args', 'wpse247328_register_post_type_args', 10, 2 );
function wpse247328_register_post_type_args( $args, $post_type ) {
if ( 'stores' === $post_type ) {
$args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'interactive-map';
}
return $args;
}
Hi,
I added the code above to the child theme and saved permalinks, but the slugs are still as the example below
https://northumberlandwi.org.uk/store/wylam/
Please ignore / remove / delete my previous comment, I was working between a test site and a live site so its no wonder updating the test site did not affect the live site!
Works like a dream, thanks for the swift response and sorry for the doh! moment
I added the function script into the child theme and it’s changed the slug but the single location pages are coming back with “page not found”.
Do you have a script that will change the slug for store category pages as well?
You can read here on how to change a custom taxonomy slug.
Hi ! How to also change it in Breadcrumbs ?
Thank you so much !
That is up to your third party plugin or theme who is creating the breadcrumbs.
Hi, I’ve used the script but I had some strange behaviour.
– the pages i created where not reachable (404)
– when i tried to edit a post from the admin panel i got the message that I was not allow to edit that type of post
– when I reloaded the page the plug in was no more present in the sidebar (like wordpress disable it)
Could you please help me?
Thank you
Please go to wp-admin and save permalinks once.
HI when I add the code I get an error on the panel
This is the first line:
Warning: array_merge(): Expected parameter 2 to be an array, string given in /home/uxyqauyg/domains/xxx.it/public_html/xxx/wp-includes/class-wp-post-type.php on line 422
Can you help me?
thank you
The args code must be $args[‘rewrite’][‘slug’] – we corrected above FAQ.
Hi!
It’s possible to change the stores slug URL store name to have it with different languages?
With WPML I tried to do this, but it doesn’t work. Only works the first condition:
add_filter( ‘register_post_type_args’, ‘wpse247328_register_post_type_args’, 10, 2 );
function wpse247328_register_post_type_args( $args, $post_type ) {
if ( ‘stores’ === $post_type && ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE==’en’ ) {
$args[‘rewrite’][‘slug’] = ‘auto-repair’;
}
if ( ‘stores’ === $post_type && ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE==’es’ ) {
$args[‘rewrite’][‘slug’] = ‘taller-coche’;
}
if ( ‘stores’ === $post_type && ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE==’it’ ) {
$args[‘rewrite’][‘slug’] = ‘autofficina’;
}
return $args;
}
Please contact WPML support for this
