Redirect Duplicated URL in WordPress Customized Permalinks

i want to ask you about something that i really confuse to solve. I have a problem with my wordpress site, it has duplicated URL with the same result.

  1. www.site.com/some-blog-post
  2. www.site.com/news/some-blog-post

I got the number 2, when i modified my themes functions :

add_action( 'init', 'add_news_slug_permalink', 1 );
function add_news_slug_permalink() {
    register_post_type( 'post', array(
        'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'news'    ),
    ) );
}

The question is, how to redirect or disabled URL without news slug to URL with news slug?
Thanks.

  1. I got the solution, in this case, i add an action in my function.php , it’s like :

    add_action('template_redirect', 'redirect_to_news_slug', 20);
    
    function redirect_to_news_slug() {
    
        global $post;
    
        /**
         * Check if the page is single Post
         */
        if ($post->post_type == 'post' && (is_category() == false) &&
            (is_single() == true) && (is_home() == false)) {
    
            $currentUrl = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
    
            /**
             * Remove slash from URL, and get the first slug
             */
            $partOfUrl = array_filter(explode('/', $currentUrl));
    
            /**
             * Check if URL doesn't have 'news'
             */
            if ($partOfUrl[1] !== 'news') {
    
                /**
                 * set new URL with 'news' slug
                 */
                $newUrl = home_url().'/news/' . $partOfUrl[1];
    
                /**
                 * Redirect to new URL
                 */
                wp_redirect( $newUrl,301 );
                exit;
            }
        }
    }
