    How do I configure the plugin after installation?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    After activating the plugin:\n1. Go to Settings \u2192 Simple Regenerate Slug in your WordPress admin\n2. Enable the plugin with the checkbox\n3. Select which post types should have automatic slug regeneration\n4. Save your settings<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Which post types are supported?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    The plugin works with all public post types including:\n- Posts\n- Pages
    \n- Custom post types (WooCommerce products, portfolios, events, etc.)\n- Any custom post type registered as public<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Does this work with existing posts?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    Yes! You can update existing posts in two ways:\n1. Edit individual posts - the slug updates when you save\n2. Use bulk edit - select multiple posts, use bulk actions \u2192 edit \u2192 update<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Can I disable the plugin for specific post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    Yes, in the plugin settings you can select exactly which post types should have automatic slug regeneration. Uncheck any post types you want to exclude.<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Is there a way for developers to customize the post types programmatically?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    Yes! Use the simpleregenerateslug_post_types<\/code> filter:\n    php\nadd_filter( 'simpleregenerateslug_post_types', function( $post_types ) {\n    \/\/ Add custom post type\n    $post_types[] = 'product';\n    return $post_types;\n} );<\/code><\/p><\/dd>\n
    Will this break my existing URLs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    The plugin only regenerates slugs when you update posts. If you have established URLs with good SEO rankings, be cautious about bulk updating. Consider using redirects if you change URLs on published content.<\/p><\/dd>\n
    Does this work with multilingual sites?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
    Yes, the plugin works with multilingual sites and is translation-ready. The slug generation uses WordPress's built-in sanitize_title()<\/code> function which handles various character sets.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
