Remove Pod name character limit

    I see that the character limit for Pod names is limited to around 20 characters. Is it possible to remove this limit?

    My use case includes the pod name as part of the URL structure. The Pod name defines a target keyword, which is why I would rather it was not cut off.

    If there is another way to accomplish what I need please let me know.

    Thanks
    Alex

    That’s actually a WordPress limit, since it’s writing that field to the wp_posts in the post-type column.

    You can override the ‘url’ slug for the Post Type (or Taxonomy), by going into the Advanced Options tag for the Pod and changing the ‘Custom Rewrite Slug’ to what you’d prefer it to be. This is the help text for that section:

    Changes the first segment of the URL, which by default is the name of the Pod. For example, if your Pod is called “foo”, if this field is left blank, your link will be “example.com/foo/post_slug”, but if you were to enter “bar” your link will be “example.com/bar/post_slug”.

    Rewrite also needs to be checked. If you’d like to change the Archive Slug (if you’d like Archives to have a different slug, (ie Teachers vs. Teacher), you can change that in the same section by checking ‘Enable Archive Page’ and under that ‘Archive Slug Override’
