You are asking about the slug of a page. To change the URL part (also referred to as “slug”) containing the name of your Page, use the “Edit” (or “Change Permalinks” in older WordPress versions) button under the Page title on the Edit screen of the particular Page, accessible from Pages tab of WordPress Administration … Read more
The slug is saved on the wp_posts while custom fields are on the wp_posts_meta. If you want to make it like that you can use an action hook on save_post that will get the value of the custom fields and saves it as the post slug. Here is the code add_action(‘save_post’, ‘set_slug’); function set_slug($post_id){ $new_slug … Read more
Caveat: the code examples within this answer are very basic and may or may not need further conditional logic to adapt to your precise needs, this logic is meant as an example to get you on your way. There’s two considerations you need to be aware of: Consideration 1: If you add a new post … Read more
WordPress has already hooked jQuery events to that button which you could omit with off() method, or keep things simple and add an overlay above that button and act as the button, prompting users to confirm the editing action at first place: jQuery(document).ready(function($){ var c = $(‘#edit-slug-buttons’) , b = $(‘button’,c).first(); c.css({ position: ‘relative’ }).append(‘<span … Read more
I don’t exactly know about the word embed, but by default WordPress reserves & uses these sort of words for internal use. I tried to create a page slug named embed but it wouldn’t work for me either on my localhost or on my live server. Maybe this is reserved for WordPress oEmbed functionality.
use wp_insert_term() (after you register the taxonomy) You can also check if a term exists() before doing that, to save some useless db queries…
WordPress picks the lowest ID as its main permalink. However, ALL categories will contain your post automatically. Meaning both these: http://yoursite/category-A/post-A http://yoursite/category-B/post-A …will return your post (given that post-A is in both category-A and category-B) via a redirect. It can’t list them all to you on the Edit page, sorry. But it will make sure … Read more
You have to filter ‘post_type_link’ to create the appropriate permalink. See this answer for a similar example. The following code works: add_action( ‘init’, array ( ‘WPSE_63343’, ‘init’ ) ); class WPSE_63343 { protected $post_type=”video”; public static function init() { new self; } public function __construct() { $args = array ( ‘public’ => TRUE, ‘rewrite’ => … Read more
I guess you are using Gutenberg in which case this is non-trivial problem. Gutenberg saves post data in two steps (two separate http requests, just use developer tools in your browser to check). First, using REST API it saves Gutenberg-ready fields including title, content and slug. Problem is, REST API uses JSON and $_POST is … Read more
An attachment is just a post with the post_status = inherit and the post_type = attachment, so can be queried with WP_Query or get_posts. Note that slug (post_name) is unique per post type. $_header = get_posts(‘post_type=attachment&name=book-site-header&posts_per_page=1&post_status=inherit’); $header = $_header ? array_pop($_header) : null; $header_url = $header ? wp_get_attachment_url($header->ID) : ”; you can also use the … Read more
