WP Permastructure

Description

In addition to controlling your custom post type permalinks this plugin adds support for using custom taxonomies in your permalink structures as well.

Not only that but you can control the full permalink so the post type slug is not required at the start of the link.

Multiple post types can use the same permalink structure.

Usage

There are 2 ways to use this plugin:

Permalink Settings

The plugin adds fields to the permalinks settings page for any public facing custom post types.

In Code

When registering a post type you can add a value to the rewrite property with the key ‘permastruct’ to define your default permalink structure.

eg:

<?php

register_post_type( 'my_type', array(
    ...
    'rewrite' => array(
        'permastruct' => '/%custom_taxonomy_name%/%author%/%postname%/'
    ),
    ...
) );

?>

Finally a plugin that does this

Thanks, finally a plugin that adds the ability to add custom permalinks with %you-own-category% for custom post types.

After deactivating plugin, website is broken -> No support

The plugin did not what I expected. I decided to deactivate the plugin. After that, every page gave a 404 error. When I asked for support, a few months ago, I didn’t receive any reaction. So my advice, think twice before installing this plugin

Great
