I had a plugin doing the same job called "Remove slug from custom post type," but it hasn't been updated for years, so I went looking for a replacement. Installed this plugin, selected my CPT and now everything is working as expected again.

Spent numerous hours searching google for a solution on how to remove a Custom Post Type slug from the url. Most threads were talking about very complex htaccess editing or functions.php code additions. Stumbled across this plugin and it worked right away. Thank you!
