# Custom Post Type Permalink Problem

 * So I’ve been trying to edit the permalinks for one of my custom post types that
   I’ve created through types. I see the following option when I edit the custom
   post type
 * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/EYzAA)
 * My normal wordpress URL logic, or at least what I’ve defined in wordpress permalinks
   is to use /%post_id%/%postname%/
 * So I thought that would be used for my custom post type, but instead the following
   is being used
 * /slug-of-the-customposttype/post-title
 * so my custompost type name is mirror it would look something like the following
 * /mirror/post-title
 * But I want something of this sort
 * /mirror/post-id/post-title/
 * So I switched the option from Use WordPress URL logic to use custom url logic.

 * But I don’t know exactly what type of syntax to put in that field.
 * I’ve tried putting in what I put in for the custom url format for wordpress in
   the settings > permalinks
 * /slug/%post_id%/%postname%/
 * but that doesn’t work.
 * Could someone tell me the syntax that I’m suppose to use in that field?
 * If possible give me the value I need to put in to get my custom post type permalinks
   to look like the following
 * /slug/post-id/post-title/
 * Thanks again for reading 🙂

 * This is not work possible right now.
    We already have this is task as part of
   complex update in one of next version.
 * Right now you can only change slug to custom.

 * Alright, any guess on when this next version will be coming out?
 * I was able to find another plugin that just edits the custom post type permalink
   structure here
 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-post-type-permalinks/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-post-type-permalinks/)
 * But I can’t get it to work, and I believe that’s because of the fact that types
   is enabled and is not letting the other plugin get access to the custom post 
   types it’s made.

 * We’re not sure. This sort of change requires deep testing. We have it on our 
   list of new features, but haven’t started on it.
 * I’m writing in our blog when new versions are available and describing all new
   features. You can subscribe to the blog and get these updates directly:
