Update page creation code in main plugin file 2. Create URL mapping helper functions 3. Update login redirection logic 4. Add backward compatibility redirects ### Phase 2: Navigation (HIGH Priority) 5. Update dashboard navigation links 6. Update authentication redirect URLs 7. Update template hardcoded links ### Phase 3: Features (MEDIUM Priority) 8. Update shortcode references 9. Update help system links 10. Update asset loading checks ### Phase 4: Testing & Documentation (LOW Priority) 11. Update test files 12. Update documentation 13. Comprehensive testing ## Backward Compatibility Plan ### 301 Redirects Required All old URLs must redirect to new URLs using WordPress redirect functions: ```php // Example redirect mapping $legacy_redirects = [ 'community-login' => 'training-login', 'hvac-dashboard' => 'trainer/dashboard', 'master-dashboard' => 'master-trainer/dashboard', 'manage-event' => 'trainer/event/manage', 'trainer-profile' => 'trainer/my-profile', 'certificate-fix' => 'master-trainer/certificate-fix', // ... etc ]; ``` ### Implementation Notes - Use WordPress `wp_redirect()` with 301 status - Preserve query parameters during redirects - Implement in `template_redirect` hook - Log redirects for monitoring ## Security Considerations ### Access Control Updates - **Certificate Fix**: Move to `/master-trainer/` hierarchy requires permission check updates - **Role-based URLs**: Ensure URL structure matches permission model - **Capability Checks**: Update template redirect logic for new URLs ## Testing Checklist ### Functional Testing - [ ] All new URLs load correctly - [ ] All old URLs redirect properly - [ ] Login redirects to correct dashboard - [ ] Navigation between trainer/master trainer dashboards works - [ ] Certificate fix page restricted to master trainers only ### Technical Testing - [ ] No 404 errors on any URL - [ ] Query parameters preserved in redirects - [ ] Assets load correctly on all pages - [ ] Help system links work - [ ] Test suite passes with new URLs ## Deployment Plan ### Pre-deployment 1. Create database backup 2. Test in staging environment 3. Verify all redirects work 4. Update user documentation ### Deployment 1. Deploy plugin with URL changes 2. Clear all caches 3. Test key user journeys 4. Monitor for 404 errors ### Post-deployment 1. Monitor redirect usage 2. Update external documentation 3. Communicate changes to users 4. Plan to remove redirects after transition period ## Files to Modify ### Core Files (16 files) - `hvac-community-events.php` - `includes/class-hvac-community-events.php` - `includes/community/class-login-handler.php` - `includes/class-hvac-dashboard.php` - `includes/class-hvac-manage-event.php` - `includes/class-hvac-registration.php` - `includes/class-hvac-settings.php` - `includes/class-hvac-help-system.php` - `templates/template-hvac-dashboard.php` - `templates/template-hvac-master-dashboard.php` - `templates/template-trainer-profile.php` - `templates/template-event-summary.php` - Multiple certificate template files - Test files (50+ files) ### Estimated Effort - **Planning/Analysis**: ✅ Complete - **Core Implementation**: 4-6 hours - **Template Updates**: 2-3 hours - **Testing**: 2-3 hours - **Documentation**: 1-2 hours - **Total**: 10-15 hours
