Component or Validation link doesn't work after updating the type name

There is a known issue which happens when changing the type name of a element type, for example changing "Components" to "Tools".

This problem is expected to be solved on an next version of this plugin, but for now there is a well known workaround to overcome this issue.

Reproducing the problem

  • Change the Component singular and plural name to "Tool" and "Tools" respectively.
  • Click save and wait.

Change component to tool

  • Try to open a "Tool"

  • Scroll down and click "Save Changes"
