In addition to controlling your custom post type permalinks this plugin adds support for using custom taxonomies in your permalink structures as well.
Not only that but you can control the full permalink so the post type slug is not required at the start of the link.
Multiple post types can use the same permalink structure.
<h4>Usage</h4>
There are 2 ways to use this plugin:
Permalink Settings
The plugin adds fields to the permalinks settings page for any public facing custom post types.
In Code
When registering a post type you can add a value to the rewrite property with the key ‘permastruct’ to define your default permalink structure.
eg:
<pre><code><?php

register_post_type( 'my_type', array(
 ...
 'rewrite' => array(
 'permastruct' => '/%custom_taxonomy_name%/%author%/%postname%/'
 ),
 ...
) );

?>
</code></pre>

Debug Bar Rewrite Rules adds information about Rewrite Rules (changed via filters) to a new panel in the Debug Bar. This plugin is an extension for <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/debug-bar/" rel="ugc">Debug Bar</a>, but it is also can work in standalone mode (as admin tools page). Note: this plugin not able to track <code>add_rewrite_rule</code> function calls, for a reason this function is untraceable.

<ul>
<li>Number of existing rewrite rules</li>
<li>List of rewrite rules</li>
<li>List of available filter hooks that can affect rewrite rules.</li>
<li>List of filters that affects rewrite rules.</li>
