v1.0.0

First release.

Permalinks for HivePress puts the category and the region into the web addresses of your listings, vendor profiles and requests, so /listing/my-listing/ can become /listing/bikes/london/my-listing/.

What it does

• A new HivePress URLs section on Settings, Permalinks, with a menu for each type of content on your site. Pick the category, the region, or both in either order; every choice shows an example address beside it.
• Works for listings, vendor profiles and requests, and picks up any future HivePress content type by itself.
• Region segments come from the official HivePress Geolocation extension. They appear as soon as regions are switched on and disappear again if you switch the extension off, with the addresses rebuilding themselves either way.
• Spell out nested terms in full to get country, state and city addresses such as /listing/united-kingdom/england/london/my-listing/.
• Uses whichever base you have set on the Permalinks page, so a site using ads or a theme that uses job is followed automatically.
• An option to keep HivePress addresses at the top level, for sites whose permalink structure has a prefix such as /blog/.

Old addresses keep working

Anything arriving on an old address, an address holding an out-of-date category or region, or the address an object had before it was renamed, is sent to the current address with a permanent redirect. Renaming a listing does not break the links you have already shared or the pages search engines have already indexed.

Notes

• Your settings are kept if you delete the plugin, unless you tick the box asking for them to be removed.
• Objects with no category or region use /other/ in that part of the address, so an address is never left with an empty gap in it.
• Your category and region archive addresses are not changed.
