Remove custom post type base slug from url

  • possibility to select specific custom post type(s)
  • auto redirect old slugs to no-base slugs

Yoast SEO specifics

If you’re using Yoast SEO plugin, after you change something in the Remove CPT base plugin, you should deactivate Yoast SEO and activate it back again to refresh its yoast_indexable database table, so it will generate correct og:url, canonical url and JSON-LD urls.

Installation

  1. Upload remove-cpt-base directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
