Hi,
Is it possible to change the URL?
Now the url is http://www.example.com/wppizza/…
I would like to change the wppizza to something generic, how can this be done?Regards

for starters, this is only an issue really if you are actually linking to *single* menu items as – when using shortcodes/categories – the url will be whatever the page is named and the menu items will be displayed on that page according to the shortcode and/or category chosen
if you do however link to single item pages (i assume you’ve edited the templates or using the search as – by default – there are no links to single menu items anywhere, you could use the inbuilt filter to change this in your themes function.php like so
add_filter('wppizza_cpt_args','my_wppizza_cpt_arguments'); function my_wppizza_cpt_arguments($args){ /**change single item post slug from wppizza to myslug (should be translatable)**/ $args['rewrite'] = array( 'slug' => __('myslug') ); return $args; }
you will have to re-save your permalinks once
having said that, i agree that this should be an option to set in the plugin, but until now I haven’t got round to it, as it wasn’t really required much. (as i mentioned , in most cases single item pages aren’t really necessary and on top of that you would have to mess around with single post templates to make this play nicely with your chosen theme)
furthermore, the code above hasn’t really been tested as yet , so – at the moment – use it at your own risk as there might be something I have as yet overlooked that could screw things up….
Either way, if you do use it , let me know if you experience any problems. I’ll do some testing myself which essentially would do the same thing except that it would be editable in the plugin itself.
However 2 sets of eyes are better than one so any issues you find, let me know
thanks
