Override Taxonomy Slug

In this example we will take as an example the Coinflip theme. It comes with multiple custom taxonomies for the Casinos, Slots, Bonuses or Bookmakers custom post types. Below it is a list of taxonomies. Each link example represent a taxonomy. The slugs will be written in bold font weight.

Casinos:

• Categories: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/categories/certified-casinos/
• Softwares: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/softwares/blandit/
• Licences: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/licences/convallis/
• Languages: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/languages/english/
• Currencies: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/currencies/aud/
• Payment Methods: https://coinflip.modeltheme.com/payment-methods/cash/

In order to replace or override the slug from a taxonomy link, simply copy and paste this code in your functions.php, in your child theme:

In our example we’ve used the taxonomy Payment Methods:

• Taxonomy name: ‘mt-listing-payment-methods’
• Taxonomy slug: ‘payment-methods’

After adding the code into the site, the taxonomy name will remain the same, the slug (the link) will be changed from ‘payment-methods’ to ‘payment’.

How to get a taxonomy name:

Important: Reset the Permalinks after adding the code, in case you see 404 error when accessing the link.
