Disabling Custom Permalinks by Post Type?

Hi, I join your question, I have exactly the same need to use custom permalinks only for pages

I should add that I’d like to do this to prevent users from setting the categories in the URL manually – it should be governed by the post category, as default in WordPress.

Hi @jonitoi @vblank

Does you guys only wants to remove edit functionality for Post Permalinks due to the complete URL Edit or does there any other point as well?

Please elaborate them if have.

Sami

Hi Sami,

Thanks for the quick reply.

What do you mean by complete URL edit?

Best regards,

Jon

Hi Sami,

I just want to disable all Custom Permalinks functionality for posts and categories, and keep it on for pages.

Is that possible?

Thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon,

This is not possible at this time but i’ll a filter by which you can exclude whenever you want.

Thanks,
Sami

Thanks Sami ??

When do you plan to make the filter available?

@jonitoi Filter is available now in the version 1.2.6

function yasglobal_exclude_post_types( $post_type ) {
  if ( $post_type == 'custompost' ) {
    return '__true';
  }
  return '__false';
}
add_filter( 'custom_permalinks_exclude_post_type', 'yasglobal_exclude_post_types');

Permalinks of the old posts or which has been created/updated before applying the filter is excluded in it.

Thanks for your query and stay tuned with us.

Sami

Amazing, thank you Sami!

Will try this out asap.

Have a good day ??

Works perfectly thank you very much !

Hi Sami,

So, I need to use the ‘yasglobal_exclude_post_types’ function above, and in $post_type == ‘custompost’, I replace custompost with the post type I want to exclude, is that right?

Hi @jonitoi

Yes, you are right ??

Hope, it works for you.

Regards,
Sami

Thanks Sami ??

I’ll use $post_type == ‘post’.

Kind regards,

Jon
