User Rating

15/15

A 98 out of 100 from 31 ratings is an excellent score, though the small sample size makes it less conclusive than ratings on busier plugins.

What It Does

Admin Slug Column adds a dedicated column to every post type edit screen in wp-admin that displays the URL slug (permalink path) for each item. It works out of the box with posts, pages, custom post types, and WooCommerce products, letting you quickly see and copy slugs without editing each post individually.

Who It's For

This plugin is built for site administrators and content teams managing large libraries of posts, pages, or products who need to audit, copy, or verify slugs in bulk. It is especially useful for SEO specialists, e-commerce managers, and agencies juggling multiple client sites where permalink consistency matters.

Who Should Skip It

If you run a small personal blog with a handful of posts and never think about URL structure, this plugin adds an extra column you will not use. Developers who already rely on Admin Columns or a full permalink manager for their workflow will find this redundant.

The Bottom Line

Admin Slug Column is a focused, well-maintained utility that does one thing well: showing you the slug for every post type entry right in the admin list. Its tiny install base and zero support history mean you are trusting a small developer, but the fresh code, PHP 8.0 requirement, and strong user rating make it a low-risk choice for anyone who needs slug visibility at a glance.
