Customizing the URL for portfolio and products

[Roger Henriksen]

That sounds great! I will backup functions.php to my local files if I want to edit this file later.

Thanks for superb help!

Hi
We have tested the site thoroughly and found that there are problems with the translation of product related pages. Example: The text “Showing all 11 products” on this page http://www.taga.no/wp2013/produkter/ and “Description”, “Additional information” etc. on http://www.taga.no/wp2013/produkt/taga-chistorra/ (all product pages)

I have translated it in WPML, but changes doesn’t show. Do you think this may be related to the changes? The translations worked fine until we updated functions.php

Best regards,
Roger

Hi,
This is not related to the changes and please contact to plugin developer about this issue .
Thanks

I have the same request. I want to edit my portfolio items URLs. I also have the WPML plugin. WPML is not active yet though.

In other words, I need a solution that will work both for my Swedish version of the site and also later the English one.

This thread doesn’t show what you guys did to edit the URLs. Please let me know too.

Also, I believe the ability to change URL on porfolio items is basic SEO that really should be there in the next update of Neighborhood.

Cheers!

Another vote for the URLs. Im not using the portfolio option as much as id like because of he URLs.

[lobsterass]

OK. But just to make it clear, do you guys mean that we can’t edit the portfolio URL:s even in the main language (without the WPML plugin being involved)?

Hi @lobsterass,

Not sure if I’m following what you mean? Do you mean the item name in the URL, or the base “/portfolio”?

Hi!

I don’t necessarily need the base. The most important thing for me is to be able to create SEO-friendly URL:s that somewhat corresponds to my H1 on that page.

For example, for a portfolio item with lets say a book cover design I made, I want to be able to call it something like:

http://monroedesign.se/graphic-design-bookcover-italy-book/

SEO and ‘pretty’.

For me.

This is what it is- http://kastylephotography.net/?portfolio=wedding

Id like- http://kastylephotography.net/portfolio/wedding

My last couple themes generated URLs like above url/portfolio/name.

Hi,

@kastyles –
Please open to edit portfolio-type.php at /themes/neighborhood/includes/custom-post-types

Find this code at line 49
'rewrite' => false,
Replace with 
'rewrite' => array('slug'=>'portfolio'),

———————- OR ———————————

Please put this code at your functions.php under child theme directory
remove_action( 'init', 'portfolio_register' );
add_action('init', 'portfolio_register_new');  
  
function portfolio_register_new() {  

    $labels = array(
        'name' => _x('Portfolio', 'post type general name', "swiftframework"),
        'singular_name' => _x('Portfolio Item', 'post type singular name', "swiftframework"),
        'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'portfolio item', "swiftframework"),
        'add_new_item' => __('Add New Portfolio Item', "swiftframework"),
        'edit_item' => __('Edit Portfolio Item', "swiftframework"),
        'new_item' => __('New Portfolio Item', "swiftframework"),
        'view_item' => __('View Portfolio Item', "swiftframework"),
        'search_items' => __('Search Portfolio', "swiftframework"),
        'not_found' =>  __('No portfolio items have been added yet', "swiftframework"),
        'not_found_in_trash' => __('Nothing found in Trash', "swiftframework"),
        'parent_item_colon' => ''
    );

    $args = array(  
        'labels' => $labels,  
        'public' => true,  
        'show_ui' => true,
        'show_in_menu' => true,
        'show_in_nav_menus' => false,
        'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-format-image',
        'rewrite' => array('slug'=>'portfolio'),,
        'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail'),
        'has_archive' => true,
        'taxonomies' => array('portfolio-category')
       );  
  
    register_post_type( 'portfolio' , $args );  
}  

Thanks 🙂

Hi Kyle and Mohammad,

I’ve spent 2 hours trying to do this. Please provide all the info needed.

I edited portfolio-type.php at /themes/neighborhood/includes/custom-post-types
and I found line 49
‘rewrite’ => false,
and I replaced with
‘rewrite’ => array(‘slug’=>’portfolio’),

Then my portfolio links obviously stopped working. Where do I edit the portfolio item URL:s?

I also tried the functions.php but I have no clue where to edit what in where? There’s no headline for CHILD THEME there…and when I search for ( ‘init’, ‘portfolio_register’ ); nothing comes up.

Very frustrating. I had to change back the portfolio-type.php now as my site is live.

Please help.
