# Patch to add "rewrite=>with_front" functionality

 * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/patch-to-add-rewritewith_front-functionality/)
 * I needed this feature in my version of CPT UI. Here’s a simple patch to add it.
   Hopefully it will be added to the released version, I don’t see a reason not 
   to.
 * Cheerios

 * Thanks Brad for a great plugin. I agree with MarcGuay as I needed that option
   too and I found lot of posts and questions about how to add “rewrite=>with_front”
   functionality and even a fork of this plugin [http://stephennomura.com/blog/enhanced-version-of-custom-post-types-ui](http://stephennomura.com/blog/enhanced-version-of-custom-post-types-ui)
   but I would rather that it was in original plugin as its already installed and
   being used on the site.
 * MarcGuay Can you provide some details on how to apply this patch?
 * Thanks.

 * Making parameters for all of the options available to the register functions 
   will be a priority for the next release. Not sure why it wasn’t part of the original.

 * Thanks for this excellent plugin!
 * I’m using version 0.8 and see that “rewrite=>with_front” is supported for custom
   post types.
 * Can I inquire as to why support was not added for setting with_front on custom
   taxonomies? I’ve temporarily patched the version on my site.
