Directory name update causes 404 errors

[Sandra Resnick]

Per https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/relabeling-the-venue-organizer-sections-in-event-meta/

Changed “organizer” to band

Works great *but*

All existing ‘organizer’ pages basically 404 now that the sub directory has changed to ‘band’ — the pages *do* still exist at /organizer/

How can I globally update pages so that I can reference them correctly?

Thank you

Hey Grant,

Thanks for reaching out! I’ll help you getting the URLs right 🙂

The following snippet changes the organizer slug, just past it in your functions.php file:


/**
* Change organizer slug
*/
function tribe_modify_organizer_slug ( $args ) {
$args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'bands';
return $args;
}

add_filter( 'tribe_events_register_organizer_type_args', 'tribe_modify_organizer_slug');


Please give this a try and let me know about it,
Best,
Nico

Added the code, still having issues

Please take a look here:

All Bands

Clicking on a band takes the user to (e.g.)

http://www.bandsnearme.com/bands/24seven/ = 404

Replacing with organizer

http://www.bandsnearme.com/organizer/24seven/ = works

In admin the slugs are created (when a new band is created) as ‘bands’ but also results in a 404 when viewed

Any help appreciated

Thanks for following up Grant!

I forgot to mention you need to flush permalinks after adding the snippet – my bad!

To do so just go to WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks > Save Changes.

Best,
Nico
