remove permalink "front part" for custom post type

Question

Let's suppose I have CPT "event". In register_post_type, I've set

'slug' => 'event'

Then, in Wordpress settings I've set following Permalink structure

Custom: http://www.domain.tld/news/%postname%/

The problem is, URL for my "Event" CPT is

www.domain.tld/news/event/<event-name>

and I want

www.domain.tld/event/<event-name>

how can I achieve that?

Thanks

Answer 1

Use the argument:

'rewrite' => array(
    'slug' => 'event',
    'with_front' => false,
)

The 'with_front' flag controls whether to use the front part you've defined.
