    I just purchased the plugin and would like to change the permalinks to something more SEO friendly.

    Right now they look like: site.com/?mx_collection=collection-name etc…

    It would be great if that could change to:

    site.com/collection/collection-name

    …and in my case because collections are only going to be full albums:

    site.com/album/collection-name

    … would be the ideal permalink.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Yes, of course. The Songs and Collections are other type of posts, but posts ultimately. So, you simply should go to the menu option: “Settings/Permalinks”, and use the permalink structure more adequate to your website.

    Best regards.

    Hi, my permalinks are already set to “Post name”, and even after updating permalinks the Music Store permalinks still do not look good. I also switched to the default theme to make sure there wasn’t any theme issue stopping permalinks settings from effecting Music Store links.

    Could you please advise further?

    Thanks.

    I looked at the way custom post types are created in music-store.php and rewrite is set to false:

    'rewrite' => false

    If you set rewrite like this:

    'rewrite' => array('slug'=>'song')

    or:

    'rewrite' => array('slug'=>'collection')

    Then the plugin will be able to use WordPress permalink settings.

    Could you update the pro version of the plugin with this code?

    I can modify the core files of the plugin to make these changes, but then those changes will be lost on update.

    Even better would be to add a settings option into the plugin to customize the permalinks. For example:

    Set the permalink slug for song:__________
    Set the permalink slug for collection:__________

    Thank you.

    PS: I’m going to request this on the pro support area.
