About Custom Permalinks

The Custom Permalinks plugin allows you to set the URL of any post, page, tag, or category to anything you want. If you experience any issues after upgrading to the latest version, you can report them on the WordPress Forum or GitHub. You can also download older versions of the plugin from the WordPress plugin repository. Please note that this plugin is not a replacement for WordPress's built-in permalink system and it only applies to individual posts, pages, tags, or categories.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Custom Permalinks plugin do?
The Custom Permalinks plugin allows you to set custom URLs for individual posts, pages, tags, or categories. It gives you ultimate control over your site structure by letting you define specific permalinks.
Will old permalinks redirect to the new custom permalinks?
Yes, old permalinks will redirect properly to the new addresses you set using this plugin. This ensures that visitors and search engines are directed to the correct new URL.
Is this plugin a replacement for WordPress's built-in permalink system?
No, this plugin is not a replacement for WordPress's built-in permalink system. It is designed for assigning custom permalinks for individual items, not for applying whole permalink structures automatically.
How can I disable redirects for a specific permalink?
You can disable specific redirects by adding a filter to your theme's functions.php file or a custom plugin. The filter 'custom_permalinks_avoid_redirect' can be used to return true for the permalink you wish to avoid redirecting.
What should I do if I encounter a site-breaking issue after upgrading?
If you find a site-breaking issue after upgrading, please report it on the WordPress Forum or GitHub with complete information to reproduce the issue. You can also download any of the old versions from the plugin's advanced page to revert.
