PCP Linkflow Engine gives you complete control over every URL on your WordPress site. Whether you need to remove the <code>/product/</code> prefix from WooCommerce products, add a custom base to a taxonomy, or restructure your page URLs — this plugin handles it all from a clean, modern admin interface.
No code required. Changes take effect immediately with automatic rewrite rule flushing.
<h3>🔑 Key Features:</h3>
Post Type URL Control 
– ✏️ Set a custom slug for any public post type (e.g. <code>/shop/</code> instead of <code>/product/</code>) 
– 🗑️ Remove the slug entirely — serve products, posts, or CPTs at root level (e.g. <code>/jacket/</code> instead of <code>/product/jacket/</code>) 
– 📄 Full support for hierarchical post types like Pages (e.g. <code>/pages/about/team/</code>) 
– 🛒 WooCommerce compatible — works correctly with the shop page, product archives, <code>is_product()</code>, and all WooCommerce template hooks
Taxonomy URL Control 
– ✏️ Set a custom base for any public taxonomy (e.g. <code>/topics/</code> instead of <code>/category/</code>) 
– 🗑️ Remove the base entirely — serve term archives at root level (e.g. <code>/clothing/</code> instead of <code>/product-category/clothing/</code>) 
– 🌳 Full support for hierarchical taxonomies — sub-terms work correctly (e.g. <code>/clothing/accessories/</code>) 
– ✅ Correct <code>is_tax()</code>, admin bar links, and taxonomy templates when base is removed
Developer Friendly 
– 🔌 Filter hooks: <code>pcplfe_post_type_slug</code>, <code>pcplfe_taxonomy_slug</code>, <code>pcplfe_permalink_structure</code>, <code>pcplfe_remove_post_type_slug</code>, <code>pcplfe_remove_taxonomy_slug</code> 
– 🌐 REST API — read and write settings via <code>/wp-json/pcplfe/v1/</code> 
– 📦 Import / Export — back up and restore all settings as JSON 
– 🧩 PSR-4 autoloaded OOP architecture under the <code>PCPLFE\</code> namespace
Modern Admin UI 
– 🎨 Clean, Tailwind-inspired design with toggle switches 
– 📑 Tabbed settings for Post Types and Taxonomies 
– 🔄 POST → Redirect → GET pattern — no duplicate saves on refresh 
– 💾 Active tab preserved across saves and page refreshes

<h3>Yoast SEO specifics</h3>
If you’re using Yoast SEO plugin, after you change something in the Remove CPT base plugin, you should deactivate Yoast SEO and activate it back again to refresh its yoast_indexable database table, so it will generate correct og:url, canonical url and JSON-LD urls.
