Removing base slug

    Great plugin. This is going to be very useful for us.

    My problem is this: We have a permalink structure that looks like “https://site.com/blog/%postname% . Changing the permalink structure is something we’d rather not do. But with this, custom post types look like …/blog/custom-post-type-slug/content. Some plugins like WooCommerce have a built-in override. WP Knowledgebase does not.

    Is there any way to strip /blog our so we don’t have /blog/knowledgebase/content? I’ve read where the following code is recommended to be added:

    ‘rewrite’ => array(‘with_front’ => false, ‘slug’ => ‘your-slug’)

    but it has to be where the custom post type is registered. Any thoughts on how to do this? Thanks in advance!

    Sorry, the permalink structure is not customisable at this time, however it is definitely something I’ll look into for future development – I agree it would be nice.

    I’ve never actually tried stripping part of a slug before so I’m afraid I can’t comment on whether your proposed solution would work or not. I guess the easiest way to test would be to give it a try! You can always remove it if it breaks things.

    hey!
    did you get rid of ‘blog’?

    Yes, but I did it the easy way and just changed the permalink structure. WordPress made the 301s automatically and everything worked without a hitch.
