Slug-collision detection
Health Check audit tab
Features default to OFF on upgrade

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Remove Taxonomy URL

Save your permalinks twice at Dashboard → Settings → Permalinks. WordPress regenerates rewrite rules on the second save.

Enable the 301 redirect old URLs option in Settings → Remove Taxonomy URL. Old /taxonomy/term/ URLs will redirect to the new /term/ so search engines and bookmarks keep working.

Yes — enable the Hierarchical term URLs option in 3.0. Nested terms (e.g. rock/punk) resolve correctly.

Enable Conflict detection on save (default ON). You'll see a warning when a colliding slug is detected. The Health Check tab can audit every selected taxonomy at once.

No. No analytics, no remote calls, no tracking. Links GitHub Repository
