Add specific words to WordPress custom type slug - wordpress

Question

I have a WordPress installation with a custom type (places) wich produces this permalink structure:
http://example.com/places/the-first-site/
And I would like to show all my sites like this:
http://example.com/places/visit-the-first-site-and-enjoy/
where 'visit' and 'and-enjoy' would be always those specific words (constants).
Even better I would like to put a custom taxonomy I have (year) as a metadata
places/visit-the-first-site-and-enjoy-1985/
I can access the DB and modify the post name of all post, but I would have to do for the new post also, and I'm looking for some automated rule, but can't find how to do.
Maybe some rewrite rule, but I don't know how to do it.
Any ideas??

Answer 1

You do not have to edit anything in your database nor any codes in your WordPress installation; you can achieve that directly from your WordPress administration panel.
From your Dashboard, click on the Permalink sub-menu under Settings; there, you will have to select the Custom Structure option and set it as follow in order to achieve your desired effect:
/places/visit-%postname%-and-enjoy-%year%/
Please note: here, we made use of both %postname% and %year% Structure Tags so as to get names of posts with their corresponding year of publication respectively.
Don't forget to click on the Save Changes button on the page in order to effect your changes.
... Read more on Permaklinks (for general knowledge).
For a custom post type and taxonomies as expressed further in comments, you will need a custom solution which will require a little bit of coding and or tweaking, depending on your abilities; you may use this handy plugin (Custom Post Type Permalinks) from the WordPress.org Plugins repository.
This posts should equally be of great help to you, to getting started and understanding further, should you chose to code.

Answer 2

You have différent hook like save_post or pending_to_publish, where you can set or change the "post_name" (that's corresponds to the permalink slug).

Answer 3

To Add specific words to WordPress custom type slug You have to Register custom rewrite rules.
suppose this is Your URL http://example.com/places/the-first-site !
and you have a post type places.
function add_rewrite_rules()
{
$wp_rewrite->add_rewrite_tag('%places%', '([^/]+)', 'places=');
$wp_rewrite->add_rewrite_tag('%state%', '([^/]+)', 'state=');
$wp_rewrite->add_permastruct('places', 'places/visit-%state%-and-enjoy/', false);
}
function permalinks($permalink, $post, $leavename)
{
$no_data = 'no-data';
$post_id = $post->ID;
if($post->post_type != 'story' || empty($permalink) || in_array($post->post_status, array('draft', 'pending', 'auto-draft')))
return $permalink;
$state = get_post_meta($post_id, 'location', true);
if(!$state)
$state = $no_data;
$permalink = str_replace('%state%', $state, $permalink);
return $permalink;
}
add_action('init', 'add_rewrite_rules');
add_filter('post_type_link', 'permalinks', 10, 3);
put this code in your custom post type plugin. and if get page not found error please change your permalink setting. or make a custom template file to show this post.
