Had to settle for a workaround - this is what i did and it works just fine - if you have a lot of pages to edit, then this could be a problem - i am planning around 20 pages, so this would be fine for me:</p> <p>Install 2 plugins:</p> <p>1) Page Lists Plus<br /> 2) LJ Custom Menu Links</p> <p>1) Page Lists Plus - go into each page and unplug (checkbox) the page from the page menu. Update the page. Correct the parent path on the right menu to indicate no parent. Check your permalink and copy the URL</p> <p>2) LJ Custom Menu Links - Go to Settings and LJ Custom Menu Links, start building your page links manually, it has a parent structure and paste you URL with your chosen link text. </p> <p>Works like a charm on WordPress 2.8+ - You can see it in action on <a href="http://www.profitworx.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.profitworx.com</a> - you can go into complex and in depth menus, i haven't yet but did test it. </p> <p>Hope this helps. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1174269 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 21:47:47 +0000 pixelhub 1174269@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Has any one got a fix to removing the parent slug from child page's permalink without using Page Lists Plus ? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1166399 Fri, 07 Aug 2009 07:58:52 +0000 brentontherefore 1166399@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I found another thread where they were trying to solve this, but were unable to: <a href="http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=1479" rel="nofollow">http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=1479</a></p> <p>Doing the Page Lists Plus thing with redirects isn't really a solution since you have to set it up individually. There should be a simple way to customize the permalink. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1165594 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 18:25:17 +0000 kadix 1165594@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>well, this plugin Page Lists Plus solves the problem:<br /> <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page-lists-plus/">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page-lists-plus/</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1064433 Mon, 04 May 2009 17:02:46 +0000 madmax1404 1064433@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>There must be another solution. No developer here that can fix this?<br /> Should be not a big deal. I have seen many other people searching for a solution of this issue. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1046127 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 01:32:57 +0000 DaoByDesign 1046127@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>This isn't a solution exactly, but it did solve one of the thorns in using solution #1 above:</p> <p>Create the pages you want to use as menu items, but don't make them children of any other page. Then to display them, simply use the wp_list_pages('include=ID1,ID2,ID3') where ID1, ID2 and ID3 are a comma-separated list of the page IDs you want as your menu items.</p> <p>This gets around the issue of not having the "current_page_item" class added to the page you're on (for CSS styling of the menu item).</p> <p>However, it doesn't help organize the pages into a more semantical tree, as they're all just in the main "Pages" bin. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/262076#post-1045465 Tue, 14 Apr 2009 10:52:07 +0000 DaoByDesign 1045465@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi, I've cruised the forum and came up with nil on how to answer this. Hopefully someone knows of a solution.</p> <p>I have a collection of pages (ie. not posts) that are organized as children of a parent page. I then use wp_list_pages() to call the pages and format them into a main navigation menu on the site.</p> <p>This works beautifully, but the pages' permalinks all contain their parent page's slug. ie.:<br /> /mainnav/apples/<br /> /mainnav/oranges/<br /> /mainnav/bananas/</p> <p>Where what I want is:<br /> /apples/<br /> /oranges/<br /> /bananas/</p> <p>The only solutions I've been able to think up are:<br /> 1. Free float all the pages as parent pages, and link to them directly - problem is, when done in this way no CSS is added to allow for separate styling of "current_page_item", and it's pretty fugly in the backend - using child pages keeps everything more organized.</p> <p>2. Change the parent page's slug to something other than "mainnav" - this would work, but I'd much prefer to not have it at all.</p> <p>Anyone have any ideas on how to remove the parent's slug from the child page's permalink? </p>
