How Do I Change the Permalink Structure of a Custom Post Type in WordPress?

If you have a custom post type with a permalink structure that you would like to change, there are a few different ways to go about it. You can either use the wp_options table to alter the permalink structure, or use the custom post type’s add_post_type_ meta tag to alter the permalink structure.

The wp_options table is where you can alter the permalink structure for all posts in a given WordPress site. To do this, you will need to find the post type you want to modify and enter the following into the wp_options table:

permalink_structure = ‘custom’

This will set the permalink structure to be custom for posts in the given post type. You can then use the post type’s normal permalink structure, or you can use a custom permalink structure that you define. To define a custom permalink structure, you will need to enter the following into the wp_options table:

permalink_structure = ‘custom/%postname%’

This will set the permalink structure to be custom/postname for posts in the given post type.

The add_post_type_ meta tag is also where you can alter the permalink structure for posts in a given custom post type. To do this, you will need to enter the following into the post type’s meta tag:

add_post_type_meta( ‘custom’, ‘permalink_structure’, ‘custom/%postname%’ );

This will set the permalink structure to be custom/postname for posts in the given custom post type.
