Post Type name changeable?

Hi redstormj,

You can find the corresponding code here: https://github.com/wpsight/wpcasa/blob/master/wpcasa/includes/class-wpsight-post-types.php#L266

With the following code you could change the labels to your needs:

/**
 * Change listing post type labels
 */
add_filter( 'wpsight_post_type_labels_listing', 'my_post_type_labels_listing' );

function my_post_type_labels_listing( $labels ) {

	// Set post type labels

	$labels = array(
	    'name' 			 => _x( 'Listings', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'singular_name' 	 => _x( 'Listing', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'add_new' 		 => _x( 'Add New', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'add_new_item' 	 => _x( 'Add New Listing', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'edit_item' 		 => _x( 'Edit Listing', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'new_item' 		 => _x( 'New Listing', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'view_item' 		 => _x( 'View Listing', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'search_items' 	 => _x( 'Search Listings', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'not_found' 		 => _x( 'No listings found', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'not_found_in_trash' => _x( 'No listings found in Trash', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'menu_name' 	 => _x( 'Listings', 'listing', 'wpcasa' ),
	);

	return $labels;

}

Ha! I knew I had seen that somewhere!

Thanks buddy.

Actually, this isn’t working. I must be missing something simple somewhere.

I am using:

/**
 * Change listing post type labels
 */
add_filter( 'wpsight_post_type_labels_listing', 'my_post_type_labels_listing' );

function my_post_type_labels_listing( $labels ) {

	// Set post type labels

	$labels = array(
	    'name' 			 => _x( 'Propiedades', 'propiedades', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'singular_name' 	 => _x( 'Propiedad', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'add_new' 		 => _x( 'Agregar Nueva', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'add_new_item' 	 => _x( 'Agregar Nueva Propiedad', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'edit_item' 		 => _x( 'Editar Propiedad', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'new_item' 		 => _x( 'Nueva Propiedad', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'view_item' 		 => _x( 'Ver Propiedad', 'propiedad', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'search_items' 	 => _x( 'Buscar Propiedades', 'propiedades', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'not_found' 		 => _x( 'No se encontraron propiedades', 'propiedades', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'not_found_in_trash' => _x( 'No se encontraron propiedades en el basurero', 'propiedades', 'wpcasa' ),
	    'menu_name' 	 => _x( 'Propiedades', 'propiedades', 'wpcasa' ),
	);

	return $labels;

}

I can see labels changing so I am sure the code is working, but this is having no impact on the actual post type name (the url). So all properties are being listed under:

https://mywebsite.com/listing/property-name

I am hoping to change “listing” in the url for something different like:

https://mywebsite.com/propiedades/property-name

Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks!

The given code was indeed just for the labels. If you want to change the slug, you need to apply another filter:

/**
 * Custom listing slug
 */
add_filter( 'wpsight_rewrite_listings_slug', 'my_rewrite_listings_slug' );

function my_rewrite_listings_slug( $slug ) {

	$slug = 'propiedades';

	return $slug;

}

After adding this code you will have to save your permalinks on WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks to update the rewrite rules.

Regarding the labels… if you just want to translate, I recommend to work with plugin translations. Spanish is included. We use the term anuncio but you can easily change that to your needs using Loco Translate in your WordPress admin or Poedit as a desktop tool.

Hope this helps.

Massive thanks! this is much appreciated. Works as expected.
