I have an url like: http://domain.com/event/?filter_location=77&location=name_of_location

I want a clean url like http://domain.com/event/name_of_location/77

How do I accomplish this in wordpress?

  • What is "event" here? What are the arguments in the query?

  • @waterschaats So then use my method below... it will work if event is a category like I stated.

  • Event is a custom-post-type not a category and filter_location is the ID of another custom-post-type. It can't be done the way you explained

You can customise the way your links are generated by going to the admin menu of WordPress then settings -> permalinks.

There will be multiple options to choose from or you may construct a 'custom' permalink structure to fit your needs.

So in your case, you may want to use the custom structure option and put something like %category%/%postname% if the event in your URL is a category.

  • (not the downvoter) What you explained is how to set permalinks. What OP needs is redirects. filter_location and location are not part of permalink structure

  • @kero Not by default no, but I'm sure they can be set up to use for that purpose.
