Provides advanced permalink options that allow you to:
<ul>
<li>Have multiple permalink structures. Permalinks can be assigned to posts or ranges of posts</li>
<li>301 redirect old permalink structures (many structures are allowed)</li>
<li>Category-specific permalinks. Posts in certain categories can be assigned a permalink structure</li>
<li>No need to have a base to the category permalink!</li>
<li>Change author permalinks</li>
<li>Enable periods in permalinks – perfect for migrating old websites</li>
</ul>
All permalinks are real permalinks and do not result in 301 redirections. This means you can change your permalink structure without 
affecting any existing posts and without losing any page rank. Any attempts to access posts in the wrong permalink structure will be 
automatically redirected to the correct URL.
Advanced Permalinks is available in: 
* English 
* Bulgarian (thanks to Alexander Dichev) 
* Belorussian (thanks to Marcis Gasuns) 
* Russian (thanks to Slava Mikheev) 
* Uzbekistan (thanks to Alexandra Bolshova) 
* Lithuanian (thanks to Nata Strazda at Web Hub)
<h4>Example 1: Migrating a permalink structure</h4>
Say you have an existing site with the default WordPress permalink structure <code>/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/</code> and you decide you want to change it 
to a more keyword-heavy <code>/%category%/%postname%/</code>. If you change the permalink setting then all your old posts will be moved, and you will suffer a major loss 
of page rank (not to mention a lot of 404s). With Advanced Permalinks you can define a specific permalink structure for all your old 
posts and then create a new permalink structure for new ones. All your old posts will carry on living at the same URL as before, but all 
new posts will be created using your new structure.
<h4>Example 2: Category-specific permalinks</h4>
Sometimes you want posts in a certain category to appear elsewhere on your site. For example, your usual permalink structure may result in:
/2007/05/02/my-review
However, you want posts in the ‘review’ category to appear as:
/reviews/my-review
Using Advanced Permalinks this is not a problem.

<h3>Advanced Filters</h3>
For developers who need more control, Custom Permalink Editor provides several filters to customize its behavior.
<h4>Add PATH_INFO in $_SERVER Variable</h4>
Enable PATH_INFO support in the $_SERVER variable. This is useful for certain server configurations.
Usage:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'cp_editor_path_info', '__return_true' );
</code></pre>
<h4>Exclude Specific Permalinks</h4>
Prevent specific permalinks from being processed by the plugin. Useful for excluding system files like sitemaps or special pages.
Example: Exclude sitemap.xml from processing
<pre><code>function team_kcg_exclude_permalink( $permalink ) {
 // Check if permalink contains 'sitemap.xml'
 if ( false !== strpos( $permalink, 'sitemap.xml' ) ) {
 return '__true';
 }

 return;
}
add_filter( 'cp_editor_exclude_permalink', 'team_kcg_exclude_permalink' );
</code></pre>
<h4>Exclude Specific Post Types</h4>
Remove the Custom Permalink Editor form from specific post types. Helpful if you want to disable the feature for certain content types.
Example: Exclude a custom post type called ‘custompost’
<pre><code>function team_kcg_exclude_post_type( $post_type ) {
 // Replace 'custompost' with your actual post type name
 if ( 'custompost' === $post_type ) {
 return '__true';
 }

 return '__false';
}
add_filter( 'cp_editor_exclude_post_type', 'team_kcg_exclude_post_type' );
</code></pre>
<h4>Exclude Specific Posts</h4>
Exclude individual posts or pages from showing the Custom Permalink Editor form. You can filter by ID, template, or any post property.
Example: Exclude post with ID 1557
<pre><code>function team_kcg_exclude_posts( $post ) {
 // Exclude specific post by ID
 if ( 1557 === $post->ID ) {
 return true;
 }

 // You can also exclude by other criteria
 // Example: Exclude posts with a specific template
 // if ( get_page_template_slug( $post->ID ) === 'template-landing.php' ) {
 // return true;
 // }

 return false;
}
add_filter( 'cp_editor_exclude_posts', 'team_kcg_exclude_posts' );
</code></pre>
<h4>Allow Accented Characters</h4>
By default, the plugin removes accents from permalinks for better URL compatibility. Enable this filter if you need to preserve accented characters.
Usage:
<pre><code>function team_kcg_allow_accents() {
 return true;
}
add_filter( 'cp_editor_allow_accents', 'team_kcg_allow_accents' );
</code></pre>
<h4>Allow Capital Letters</h4>
By default, permalinks are converted to lowercase. Use this filter to preserve capital letters in your custom URLs.
Usage:
<pre><code>function team_kcg_allow_capitals() {
 return true;
}
add_filter( 'cp_editor_allow_caps', 'team_kcg_allow_capitals' );
</code></pre>
Note: Add these code snippets to your theme’s <code>functions.php</code> file or use a custom plugin/code snippets plugin.
<h3>How To Use</h3>
Changing a Post or Page Permalink:
<ol>
<li>Navigate to Posts > All Posts (or Pages > All Pages)</li>
<li>Click on the post/page you want to edit</li>
<li>Scroll down to find the “Custom Permalink Editor” meta box</li>
<li>Enter your desired custom URL in the text field (without the domain)</li>
<li>Click “Update” or “Publish” to save your changes</li>
<li>Visit your post to see the new permalink in action!</li>
</ol>
Example: 
– Default URL: <code>yoursite.com/2026/01/11/my-blog-post/</code> 
– Custom URL: <code>yoursite.com/seo-friendly-custom-url/</code>
Reverting to Default Permalinks:
Simply deactivate the plugin and all posts will automatically revert to WordPress default permalink structure.
