I have a custom taxonomy called campaign
and a custom post type called asset
. For assets, I want to have the following permalink structure: mysite.com/<campaign_name>/<asset_name>
. I have achieved this by the following code, but now if I go to any normal page with the url structure mysite.com/<pagename>
it gives a 404. And when I comment out the rewrite slug part in the function for registering the custom post type, or add this instead ams/%campaign%
, it works but that's not the URL structure I want for my custom post type.
Code for registering custom taxonomy:
...
'rewrite' => array(
'slug' => '',
'with_front' => true,
),
...
Code for registering custom post type:
...
rewrite' => array(
'slug' => '%campaign%',
'with_front' => true,
),
...
Functions for rewrite rules:
function ams_asset_add_rewrite_rules( $rules ) {
global $post;
if ($post->post_type == 'asset' ) {
$new = array();
$new['([^/]+)/(.+)/?$'] = 'index.php?asset=$matches[2]';
$new['(.+)/?$'] = 'index.php?campaign=$matches[1]';
return array_merge( $new, $rules );
}
return $rules;
}
add_filter( 'rewrite_rules_array', 'ams_asset_add_rewrite_rules' );
// Handle the '%campaign%' URL placeholder
function ams_asset_filter_post_type_link( $link, $post = 0 ) {
if ( $post->post_type == 'asset' ) {
$cats = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'campaign' );
if ( $cats ) {
$link = str_replace( '%campaign%', $cats[0]->slug, $link );
}
}
return $link;
}
add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'ams_asset_filter_post_type_link', 10, 2 );
First, register your taxonomy and set the slug argument of rewrite to shows:
register_taxonomy(
'campaign',
'asset',
array(
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'shows', 'with_front' => false ),
// your other args...
)
);
Next, register your post type and set the slug to shows/%show_category%, and set has_archive argument to shows:
register_post_type(
'show',
array(
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'campaign/%asset%', 'with_front' => false ),
'has_archive' => 'asset',
// your other args...
)
);
Last, add a filter to post_type_link to substitute the show category in individual show permalinks:
function wpa_show_permalinks( $post_link, $post ){
if ( is_object( $post ) && $post->post_type == 'asset' ){
$terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'campaign' );
if( $terms ){
return str_replace( '%campaign%' , $terms[0]->slug , $post_link );
}
}
return $post_link;
}
add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'wpa_show_permalinks', 1, 2 );
