Client Portal version v.10 has been released! Today's update has been consistently requested from the very beginning and, despite it not being the sexiest update, we think it's going to be really useful.
 

Custom slugs: All you need to know

So now you can change this to anything you like. Here's how:

1. From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Settings -> Permalinks.
2. Scroll down to Client Portal Permalinks.
3. Change your permalink to anything you like!

That's it from us! We hope you enjoy this new update and please don't hesitate to give us your feedback on how we can improve it or any other features you'd like to see in a future release.
