README

The Magento 2 Update URL Keys module allows you to update URL keys for products in Magento 2. It provides an easy way to update the URL keys based on the current name.

When the name of a product changes, the URL key associated with that product should be updated accordingly. Changes to the product name happen frequently, and it is important to keep the URL key in sync to ensure consistent and accurate URLs for the product.

The URL key is a unique identifier used in the URL of a product page. It is generated based on the product name and is used to create a user-friendly and search engine-friendly URL. When the product name is modified, the URL key should be updated to reflect the new name.

This process can be automated by implementing a custom functionality that listens for product name changes and automatically updates the URL key. Whenever the name of a product is modified, the system should trigger the update of the URL key to match the new name.

By keeping the URL key up to date with the product name, you ensure that customers can access the product page using a meaningful and relevant URL, and search engines can properly index and rank the product in search results.

Implementing this functionality can help maintain consistency and improve the overall user experience of your online store.

Usage

1. Backend

Log in to your Magento admin panel. Go to Stores > Configuration > Parc Network > Update Url Keys. Select the store views and the desired update method, which can differ between multiple store views. Configure your own cronjob interval and save the configuration

Note: The cronjob functionality is disabled by default.

2. CLI

Inside your Magento2 root, hit bin/magento parc:updateurlkeys

A list of all possible parameters can be found via -h / --help or below:

I would only recommend using the CLI when:

• you don't want to wait until the cron would be executed the next time.
• you want to create an overview via CSV, which changes are made, regarding the url keys
• you want to update the url key for a single product only
