Thanks ??

Can you share the script with me?

This is the live page I am trying to setup: https://www.bespokie.com/contact-us/

I need /%postname%/ permalink structure for various reasons. Not going to change that.

It just didnt do anything at all. There was no change, but also no adverse effect. Lots of people in the comments having the same problem.

Thanks for explaining that further.

I checked out your link that provides some custom code for removing the slug, and unfortunately the code is already broken. It does not work with the latest version of WordPress.

But if anyone else is looking for a solution I found this plugin which seems to do the trick: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/permalinks-customizer/

Just have to hope they keep it updated when WordPress changes again!

Sorry I think you misunderstand, I’m not asking why it is changing the URLs. It used to change them if there was a conflicting post vs page URL. It no longer does that.

I actually want it to change to avoid any URL conflicts. It is not doing that anymore.

It only does that if the conflict is within the same post type. For example if I create two duplicate pages it will change the URL, but not if I create one page and post that are the same.

Hi @tw2113,

I’m having the same problem.

Trying to change the URL structure from https://mysite.com/portfolio_page/portfolio-item/ to https://mysite.com/portfolio-item/.

And so I am also confused why the “with front” option does not remove the slug.

You quoted the codex saying that the with front arg is used for something else, but from the codex description is seem to be exactly that, an arg used to remove the slug.

This is their example in the codex:

false->/news/, true->/blog/news/

Which, to follow on your Portfolio example, I think is saying this:

false->/portfolio-item/, true->/portfolio_page/portfolio-item/

Correct? If that’s not the case, then what is it used for?

Your link (https://kellenmace.com/remove-custom-post-type-slug-from-permalinks/) for an alternate solution looks good, but I would rather not mess round with custom code if I don’t have to because there’s a high chance it will break in the future, causing a huge headache.

Also there is problem with links that are added to the caption box. It works, but it adds some extra unwanted text to the to of the caption. See the first image on my test gallery for an example of this.

P.S. I reverted the code changes back to the original version as they were not needed after I discovered some of the mobile problems came from chrome dev tools.

I think I figured part of the problem, I was looking at the mobile view using chrome dev tools, not an actual phone. On a real phone (not a simulated one) the captions are showing and the buttons are positioned correctly.

But there are still a few issues…

1) MOBILE: If there is long caption text it gets cut off on mobile view. Can we make that text scroll-able so they can read it all? A slide up with the thumb or similar would be good UX.

2) DESKTOP: Wide images are pushed too far to the left of the lightbox, therefore covering the left arrow.

Here is a live test page I have made for you: https://www.elementpaints.com/test-page/

Hi,

Thanks so much for the help.

1) DESKTOP: There is still a problem on the desktop when viewing long images in Light box theme 5. The image is pushed to the left side of the screen, which obscures the left arrow. Its bad UX because the image should be shifted further to the right so that it can be seen. Most users won’t know the left arrow is there otherwise. See here: https://nimb.ws/5PX690

2) MOBILE: Same problems as before, but now also the close button is in the wrong spot. The close button needs to go back to the same spot, but have the image shrunk slightly so that the arrows and close buttons can be seen. Also the image caption text is not shown, it should be displayed at the bottom in the big black gap. See here: https://nimb.ws/DAvOds

Sorry it didn’t work, still showing same bug.

But I guess it doesn’t really matter because the plugin still works just fine. Just makes for a slightly bad user experience for the admin user that’s all.

Have just updated, still showing this “save” popup box when I change tabs: https://prnt.sc/hd50ka

Amazing! You are probably the most responsive plugin author I know!

Thanks for providing such a cool plugin ??

Hmmm strange.

It never happens with any other plugin setting tabs. So might be something specific to how they are setup.

I am using Chrome btw.
