Sorry, I wrote too soon! I saw you already answered it in the previous comments and that worked for me too. Thanks again for the great info!

Thanks for the info! It worked great to change the permalinks on my custom post type, but I am getting a 404 when I try to view the post? Is there something I’m missing? I’ve tried saving the Permalinks Settings Page, but that hasn’t done anything. Thanks in advance!

Hello there, thanks for your job, I have set a permalink structure for my custom type ‘spartiti’ in this way:
/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
but I would like to have my archive for this custom post type in this way:

mywebsite/spartiti

Is this possible?
Thank you

Works great, thanks a billion!!! I modified it slightly for a custom post that I wanted to display like /books/%post_id%/%postname% so I was able to remove much of the code, and it looks like this:

function BookPermalink( $permalink, $post_id, $leavename ) { $post = get_post( $post_id );


	// Don't rewrite unless it's published

	if ( '' != $permalink && !in_array( $post->post_status, array('draft', 'pending', 'auto-draft') ) )

	{
		// These are the things we'll look for

		$rewrite_old = array(

			'%post_id%',

			$leavename? '' : '%pagename%',

			$leavename? '' : '%postname%'

		);
		// And here we decide what to replace them with

		$rewrite_new = array(

			$post->ID,

			$post->post_name,

			$post->post_name

		);
		// Now do the replacing

		$permalink = str_replace($rewrite_old, $rewrite_new, $permalink);
	}

return $permalink; }

What is $event_structure and $place_structure?

Hi,

I am having problems with creating this for two CPT,
$wp_rewrite->add_permastruct(‘event’, $event_structure, false);
$wp_rewrite->add_permastruct(‘place’, $place_structure, false);

They seem to cancel each other out, if i comment one out the other will work but not both, do u have any advice?

Yes this is a premalink conflict issue. Try adding a unique keyword to your permalink structure, e.g.

/my-unique-keyword/%ean%/%game%
