If you are like me, you often wait until after you’ve written your post to choose a title. Or perhaps you change your mind a few dozen times before you settle on the best title possible. Have you ever noticed that WordPress picks your post slug before you are ready? This plugin is the solution! It automatically updates your slug to the WordPress recommended value when you save your post, so you never have to worry about your slug being wrong again.

CW Post Slugs

Set the post slug to the WordPress recommended value, even if you've changed your title.

4. Click ‘Update’ without making changes 
5. Slugs will be automatically regenerated from titles
Developer Features: 
The plugin includes the <code>simpleregenerateslug_post_types</code> filter hook that allows developers to programmatically modify which post types are affected:
<pre> ```php // 
add_filter( 'simpleregenerateslug_post_types', function( $post_types ) {
 $post_types[] = 'custom_post_type';
 return $post_types;
} ); ``` </pre>

Good Plugin

Installed the plugin and there is no sign of it. No menu item, no notifications, I don't see how to use this plugin. No instructions on the page either so I can only assume this doesn't work anymore.

Doesnt work

Regenerate slugs from post titles with enable/disable options and custom post type support. Easy to configure with admin settings.
