  • Perfect

    Bulk edit posts and voilà

  • Works flowlessly

    Do a bulk edit and update the required post type. Slugs will be updated.

  • EXCELLENT!

    This app is super-simple to use. The only reason people have downvoted it is because there is no clear tutorial. Using the app is simple. Activate, then update posts or pages. For instance, if you want to update the URL slugs for posts, go to the standard Wordpress Posts page, select some posts (not too many - I did 100 at a time by viewing 100 posts per page and selecting all posts) and click 'Bulk actions' > 'Edit' > 'Apply'. Then simply select update without needing to make any further changes. This will refresh the page and url slugs will be updated to match the post titles. Enjoy!

  • Great plugin

    This plugin is awesome! It helped me a lot. At first, I was confused because I couldn't find it after activating. But then I figured out it just does its thing quietly. You don't have to do anything. When you change your product titles, the slug changes by itself. It's like magic!

  • Amazing, works like a charm

    As Venaxis explained:Select all posts/pages/products that you want to regenerate the slug for and bulk edit them.Then just save and all of them regenerate based on their titles.It works like a charm, highly recommended!

  • Doesnt work

    Installed the plugin and there is no sign of it. No menu item, no notifications, I don't see how to use this plugin. No instructions on the page either so I can only assume this doesn't work anymore.
