Admin Slug Column

Maelezo

This plugin adds a column to wp-admin “All Posts” and “All Pages” views displaying the URL path and Slug for each one. This will also show the nested path if a page is a child post of a parent. If a post or page is not published we’ll do our best to determine the url path and display that slightly greyed out for quick reference as it’s technically not an official URL path or Slug yet. This should also work for custom post types of type page or post, and furthermore this should now, as of v1.6, also display Multibyte characters in slugs for non-latin languages too.

I initially built this out of necessity to quickly identify pages by their slug/path as sometimes the titles that clients used did’t match up nicely with the URL slug on the front-end of the site; so here’s a fast way to do that. Nothing fancy, just does what it does.

Do you have a feature you’d like or a bug you’ve found? Feel free to make an issue on the github repo.

Installation

  1. Upload the admin-slug-column directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the Admin Slug Column plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Go to Posts or Pages and see the column showing your slug
  4. Choose to hide/show the slug column in “Screen Options” tab up top

This plugin is great – but hasn’t been updated in 2 years. Can you please provide an update so it won’t pose a security threat. Thank you.

Great little product – thank you. Somehow I had the same name for a post and a page – and it was causing problems. this solved it. I would use it all the time if it handled multi-byte characters as a url is spread over 9 lines.
