Auto-generate a unique random string and set it to post_name.

Customization with hooks

Use of filter hooks is at your own risk.

  • You can change post_type to be applied by an array. Deafult is ‘post’ only.
add_filter( 'random_post_name_post_types', 'hoge' );
function hoge(){
    return ['post', 'page'];
}
  • You can change the number of characters in the post_name. Deafult is 10.
add_filter( 'random_post_name_digits', 'hoge' );
function hoge(){
    return 20;
}
  • You can change the variation of characters. Deafult is ‘0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz’. Do not include multibyte chars.
add_filter( 'random_post_name_choices', 'hoge' );
function hoge(){
    return '0123456789abcdefghijkmnpqrstuvwxyz_-';
}

Precautions

Too few characters and too few character variations can cause unexpected problems.
