How to Use “Permalink Settings” of CartFlows?
Do you want to modify or change the cartflows mentioned in the slug of CartFlows steps and flows?
For the same, we have introduced the “Permalink Settings” section in the WordPress Dashboard > CartFlows > Settings.
Note: Just to clarify the WordPress Permalink & CartFlows Permalink Settings both are different.
The difference between these settings is that the WordPress Permalink can be changed from the Settings > Permalink and the CartFlows Permalink Settings can be changed from the CartFlows > Settings.
The WordPress Permalink will change the URL structure for the whole website including the CartFlows pages.
Now, if you have selected the WordPress permalink structure to any other option except the “Post Name” then this will add the cartflows_step to the CartFlows step.
What is cartflows_step?

To change this cartflows_step from the URL from the CartFlows pages you can use this setting. As you can see in the below image that strings for both the Flow & Step are changed.
In the CartFlows Permalink Setting We have provided four options and they are as follows.
- Default: This option will set the default URL slug for the CartFlows i:e cartflows_flow & cartflows_step. This is similar to the restore to default.
- Flow & Step Slug: This option will change the URL slug for flow and the step at the same time and the changed slug will be displayed in the URL of all the flows.
- Flow Slug: This option will change the flow slug in the URL only and the changed slug will be displayed in the URL of all the flows.
- Step Slug: This option will change the step slug in the URL only and the changed slug will be displayed in the URL of all the flows.
Best Permalinks Settings
On your WordPress install, if you go to Settings > Permalinks, you will have several options on how the link format for your website works.
A general rule of thumb is to always set it to post name.
For CartFlows users this would generate clean permalinks for CartFlows steps.
Otherwise, they can be like:

cartflows_step is in between.
