## Description

This plugin allows you to create SEO-friendly URLs by removing taxonomy slugs, making
URLs cleaner and more attractive to search engines. It’s simple to use, even for
those with minimal technical knowledge.

With this plugin, you can:
 – Remove slugs from custom taxonomies by adjusting plugin
settings. – Access the settings in your WordPress admin dashboard under **Remove
Taxonomy Slug Settings**. – Select the taxonomies you wish to modify and save your
preferences.

### Developer Note

For advanced customization, a filter is provided:
 `add_filter('remove_taxonomy_slug_filter',
function($slug_list) { return $slug_list; }); Ensure the slug names are accurate
in the array.

Compatible functions:
 – `term_link` – `get_category_link` – `get_term_link` – `
category_link`

This plugin also works seamlessly with Custom Post Type UI.
