 * Why is the option to edit slugs/permalinks eliminated when using classic editor(
   but works with Block editor) requiring manual editing of the actions.php file
   to delete these lines:
 * if ($post_type == SG_POPUP_POST_TYPE && is_admin()) {
    // hide permalink for 
   popupbuilder post type return ”; }
 * and then have that change undone with each update?

 * Dear [@ajparedes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajparedes/) ,
 * Thanks for getting in touch.
    Actually, the link to Popup’s post types are useless
   and that’s why we hide it from the editor. I will check with the development 
   team why it’s still visible for Gutenberg editor. And in this case could you 
   please let us know why it’s important for you to use popup’s permalinks?
 * Looking ahead to hearing from you soon.

 * Well, regardless of whether or not they are useless, why eliminate options? I
   also don’t like knowing that when I clone them one is called terms, then terms-
   1, then terms 1-2, etc.

 * Dear [@ajparedes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajparedes/) ,
 * Thanks for getting back to us!
    We don’t show permalink because the popup post
   page doesn’t contain any content and for SEO purposes we have decided not to 
   show the permalink and access to popup post pages. If you clone your original
   popup the calculations will be different. Seems, you are cloning the one you 
   have cloned and so on. We will check the permalinks with Gutenberg editor as 
   well and will include the fix in our upcoming update.

 * What do you mean by the fix? There is no harm in including them vs eliminating
   them also im Guttenberg.

 * Dear [@ajparedes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajparedes/) ,
 * Thanks for the message 🙂
    The reason why we decided to remove the permalinks,
   was that many of our users had issues with them and that is why we did our best
   to satisfy our customers. In case you have any other questions, we will be glad
   to assist.

 * No point in punishing everyone if other plugins do provide the functionality.

    There is no intention to punish any other plugin. We
   are sorry if the reply made you feel that way.

 * Punishing users. We feel we need the option instead of having to edit the code
   for each version as per your instructions, which is riskier but which we hace
   been doing each time.

 * Also, some payment gateway processors require the slug to be submitted when applying.
