Overview

About this plugin

Permalink Manager gives you more control over WordPress URLs, allowing you to customize URLs directly from the admin dashboard without requiring custom code. You can define a custom permalink structure for any content type or edit individual permalinks separately.

The plugin supports all custom post types and taxonomies and works with popular plugins such as WooCommerce, ACF, WPML, and Polylang.

The free version lets you customize permalinks for posts, pages, and custom post types. With the Pro version, you can also manage permalinks for categories, tags, and custom taxonomies.

Permalink Manager automatically redirects old and duplicate URLs to the correct page, helping prevent broken links and 404 errors.
