Remove Taxonomy Base Slug

View on WordPress

If you would like to have a little more nice permalinks to your custom post types articles with custom permalinks – this plugin can help you with this.
If the term has the same slug as the post type, then the taxonomy has the priority over the post type.

Now I will show some examples:

(Custom taxonomy:)

From:

site.com/taxonomy/cars

To:

site.com/cars

(Custom taxonomy with child taxonomies)

From:

site.com/taxonomy/cars/bmw

To:

site.com/cars/bmw

(Term slug is the same as the post type slug:)

From:

(Post Type:) site.com/cars/
(Term from Taxonomy:) site.com/taxonomy/cars/
(Subterm from Taxonomy:) site.com/taxonomy/cars/bmw

To:

(Post Type:) site.com/cars/ (will not show)
(Term from Taxonomy:) site.com/cars (will show)
(Subterm from Taxonomy:) site.com/cars/bmw (will show)
