  Hi,

  I’ve created a CPT, lets say “Services” and registered it as “services”. It works well, I can access service posts at /services/post_slug.

  I want to update the plugin so that “services” in the slug is replaced with “solutions”. So I’ve added in the following code to the args array for the CPT registration:

  ‘rewrite’ => array(‘slug’ => ‘post_type’)

  Now links are automatically generated like this “/solutions/post_slug” which is perfect, however when followed I get a 404.

  Can anyone tell me why posts aren’t loading after having added in the slug rewrite?

  Hi, have you tried refreshing the permalink options, saving it again?

  Hi lillyeffect, thanks so much for the reply, worked instantly. Can’t believe I didn’t think of this, now that you mention it I recall other people having this issue in the past.

  Thanks again!!
