## Àpèjúwe

Slash Edit saves you time by adding a simple admin shortcut to WordPress that lets
you edit posts and pages quickly by adding `/edit` to almost any URL.

Instead of navigating through wp-admin or relying on the admin bar, just append `/
edit` and go straight to the edit screen.

> https://yoursite.com/about/edit

This makes it easy to:

 * Edit posts quickly
 * Edit pages quickly
 * Use a reliable quick edit shortcut
 * Access a clean admin shortcut to edit content
 * Securely share admin edit links with clients

### A True WordPress Shortcut for Editing Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – /edit

Slash Edit is built for speed. Whether youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re a developer, editor,
or site owner, it gives you a consistent shortcut to edit posts and pages without
relying on the admin bar.

 * No more searching through the dashboard
 * No more long admin URLs
 * Just a fast and predictable edit shortcut that is there when you need it

### Replace Complex Admin URLs

Stop sharing links like:

> `https://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=123&action=edit`

Instead, send a clean edit page shortcut:

> `https://yourdomain.com/about/edit`

Perfect for clients and teams who need a simple way to quick edit content or for
email senders who mangle URLs.

### What You Can Edit

Slash Edit works across your entire site:

 * Posts and pages
 * Custom post types
 * Users
 * Categories and tags
 * Taxonomies
 * Author archives
 * Front page (if assigned)
 * Blog page (if assigned)

If you are not logged in, you will be prompted to log in and then redirected to 
the correct edit screen.

### Why Use This Edit Shortcut?

 * You want to edit posts and pages quickly
 * You need a reliable admin shortcut without the admin bar
 * You want to send clients a simple edit page link
 * You prefer a fast quick edit workflow

### Slash Edit is Perfect for WordPress Plugin and Theme Demos

When a WordPress Playground or demo site is generated, you donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t 
always know the final ID or URL of an item. With Slash Edit installed, give them
a relative link such as:

    ```
    /about/edit
    ```

If you have theme demos you can **take your users right to the customizer or Full
Site Editor** with a shortcut: `/theme/edit`

### Examples of Slash Edit in Use

**Content Editing**

 * Homepage: `https://yourdomain.com/edit`
 * Page: `https://yourdomain.com/about/edit`
 * Post: `https://yourdomain.com/blog/your-blog-post/edit`
 * Custom Post Type: `https://yourdomain.com/resources/my-resource/edit`
 * Deeply Nested Post Type (example: lessons): `https://yourdomain.com/courses/new-
   course/lessons/new-lesson/edit`
 * WooCommerce: `https://yourdomain.com/product/product-123/edit

**Post Types Archives**

 * Custom Post Type (example: articles): `https://yourdomain.com/articles/edit`
 * WooCommerce Products: `https://yourdomain.com/product/edit` or `https://yourdomain.
   com/shop/edit`

 * Users list:
    - `https://yourdomain.com/users/edit`
    - `https://yourdomain.com/author/edit`
    - `https://yourdomain.com/authors/edit`

**Taxonomies**

 * Category: `https://yourdomain.com/category/category-one/edit`
 * Tag: `https://yourdomain.com/tag/new-tag/edit`
 * Custom Taxonomy: `https://yourdomain.com/topics/hosting/edit`
 * Nested Taxonomy Within Post Type: `https://yourdomain.com/how-tos/topics/hosting/
   edit`

**Theme Editing**

 * Full Site Editor / Customizer: `https://yourdomain.com/theme/edit`

**Multisite**

 * Go to a SiteÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s edit screen: `https://mymultisite.com/site/edit`
 * Go to all sites in the network admin: `https://mymultisite.com/sites/edit`

**Example: Changing the Endpoint**

Changes `/edit` to `/editar`. Make sure to flush permalinks after any endpoint changes.

    ```
    <?php
    add_filter( 'slash_edit_endpoint', function( $endpoint ) ) {
        return 'editar';
    }
    ```

### Security

Only users with Editor capabilities (or higher) can access edit screens.

Developers can customize access using filters:

 * `slash_edit_capability_check`
 * `slash_edit_can_edit`

### Developer Friendly

 * Filter the `/edit` endpoint if needed
 * Extend redirect behavior
 * Lightweight and no settings required

 1. Just unzip and upload the “slash-edit” folder to your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

## FAQ

### How do I use the plugin?

Navigate to any post, page, or archive and add `/edit` to the end of the URL.

Example (editing a page):

    ```
    https://example.com/about/edit
    ```

Example (editing the homepage):

    ```
    https://example.com/edit
    ```

Example (editing a user):

    ```
    https://example.com/author/myuser/edit
    ```

### Do I need pretty permalinks enabled?

Yes. Slash Edit requires pretty permalinks to work. Please flush permalinks if any`/
edit` URLs 404 when they shouldnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t.

### Who can access edit links?

Only users with Editor permissions or higher by default. For security, final edit
URLs arenÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t revealed until a permissions check through wp-admin.

The way it works is:

 1. The `/edit` rule is captured and parsed.
 2. One-time token is generated, saved as a transient.
 3. Token is passed via the WordPress admin, which checks the token and userÌtumọ̀ 
    Yorùbá: ’s permissions.
 4. If a user has the right permissions, the user is redirected to the appropriate 
    admin area.

Developers can override this using the provided filters.

### What happens if I am not logged in?

You will be redirected to the login screen and then back to the correct edit page.

### Does this work with custom post types and taxonomies?

Yes. Slash Edit supports custom post types, taxonomies, and most archives.

### What happens on archive pages?

Most CPT archives should redirect you to the post typeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s list view
in the admin.

All term and author archives work.

Blog archives redirect to Settings > Reading.

Special archives like WooCommerce allow for `/product/edit` or `/shop/edit`.

### Can I change `/edit` to something else?

Yes. You can use the provided filter `slash_edit_endpoint` and then flush permalinks.

**Example: Creating a Custom Endpoint**

Changes `/edit` to `/editar`. Make sure to flush permalinks after any endpoint changes.

    ```
    <?php
    add_filter( 'slash_edit_endpoint', function( $endpoint ) ) {
        return 'editar';
    }
    ```

### Are there any settings?

No. The plugin works out of the box with no configuration required.

### Does this plugin work with WordPress Multisite?

Yes, this plugin works wonderfully with Multisite.

### What happens if a /edit URL 404Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s?

Try flushing permalinks and/or setting pretty permalinks if they are not already
enabled.

Proof that sometimes the simplest things can make a profound difference. It's making
its way into every Wordpress install I touch. Thank you!
