Rename content type administration paths

Created on 26 December 2013, over 11 years ago
Updated 13 April 2023, about 2 years ago

Node type list currently has path 'admin/structure/types' in node.routing.yml.
Since the Node module now is optional, the default path should reflect what these types are. Something like 'admin/structure/nodetypes'.

    admin/structure/content is too vague IMO, if we follow the pattern of other modules in the admin/structure menu we have:

    * Block - admin/structure/block
    * Block content - admin/structure/block-content
    * Comment - admin/structure/comment
    * Contact - admin/structure/contact
    * Media - admin/structure/media
    * Menus - admin/structure/menu
    * Taxonomy - admin/structure/taxonomy

    Therefore, I think this should be admin/structure/node

    However, given we're changing 8 hardcoded routes and many more for field_ui paths I'm not sure if this is worth the trouble? It's going to cause serious disruption and require a huge number of redirects and route deprecations. Just look at how many test changes we have (700+ lines changed as of 10.1.x according to the MR). The disruption to contrib and custom projects will be quite substantial.

    This would simply too disruptive for the benefit it would provide.
