Changing Permalink Slug

At the moment (we intend to change this for the next major release I believe), the Results URL cannot have the form that you want.

It can be, for example:

http://www.domain.com/post-name/

But not

http://www.domain.com/case-studies/post-name/

Ah sorry, I meant changing from:

?_sft_portfolio_category=

To:

?_sft_case_studies_category=

Ah. When you go to the form UI setup, it still shows as the old name?

This is because there are two names for a taxonomy. The name, which you have changed, and the slug name, which cannot be changed. For example, when you try in CPT UI (a taxonomy plugin) to change the slug of a taxonomy, it warns you that doing so will actually create a new taxonomy, and asks you if you want to transfer the terms over?

Doing this WOULD let S&F see them. So, instead of renaming the category thing, use CPT UI to make a completely new one with the correct slug, and then use the Taxonomy Switcher plugin to move the terms over.

Ah yes, I figured that’d be a solution. But was just trying to see if there are other work arounds before having to create a new taxonomy 🙂

Thanks Trevor!
