Using the SC_EVENTS_SLUG Constant
By default, the slug of the sc_events post type is /events/, resulting in URLs that look like this: http://example.com/events/event-name.
With the PHP constant below, you can change this slug to any name you like.
define( 'SC_EVENTS_SLUG', 'my-events-slug' );
You’ll need to add the code snippet above to your site’s functions.php file to change the slug of this post type. Be sure to replace my-events-slug with the name you’d like to use.

After adding the snippet, return to your site’s admin area and go to Settings » Permalinks. Then click the Save Changes button to update your site with the new slug.
That’s it! You now know how to update the event slug URL in Sugar Calendar.
