    Any thoughts on how to change the permalink URL for keywords? For instance, I would like for /my_keywords/ in the URLs to be /glossary/ . I have tried to do this using the redirection plugin but it just comes back with “too many redirects” no matter how I do it.

    Hi @ketoingcom,

    Sorry for the 2 days of delay

    Ok there is an advanced solution for this issue to do for once ( waiting for the easy way in the upcoming versions 🙂 )

    So how to do it (switch from ‘my_keywords’ to ‘glossary’) :

    1. Look fo the tooltipy_post_type_name option in the ‘wp_options’ table in your site DB (wp as your tables prefix) and change ‘my_keywords’ to the new one ‘glossary’ for example (don’t use space or special characters except – or _ and try to not use other used post types slugs to prevent interference with other post types)
    2. Flush your permalinks : Link

    Now it should work 🙂

    Note : when you change the Tooltipy post type name you won’t see your old keywords until you go back to the default ‘my_keywords’, anyways if you added a lot of them there might be a small db script or plugin to convert from the old to the new name (from ‘my_keywords’ to ‘glossary’).

    Let me know if this helps
    Thanks
