Wordpress Custom Post Type - Same Post Name, Different Post Type

Tags:

wordpress

I have 4 Custom Post Types:

Services FAQs Prices Before and After

I want to be able to have the same post names within each of these post types, example:

Services
Skin (example.com/Services/skin)
Cream (example.com/Services/cream)
Body (example.com/Services/body)

FAQs
Skin (example.com/FAQs/skin)
Cream (example.com/FAQs/cream)
Body (example.com/FAQs/body)

Prices
Skin (example.com/Prices/skin)
Cream (example.com/Prices/cream)
Body (example.com/Prices/body)

Before and After
Skin (example.com/before-and-after/skin)
Cream (example.com/before-and-after/cream)
Body (example.com/before-and-after/body)

How can I do this? Right now if I make a new post with the same name as a current one, it adds a "-2" or "-3" to the end of the posts slug:

BAD:

example.com/services/body

example.com/faqs/body-2

example.com/prices/body-3

example.com/before-and-after/body-4

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I wrote a function that can be added to your theme's functions.php file that includes the patch written by mboynes in this ticket: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18962#comment:14

function wp_cpt_unique_post_slug($slug, $post_ID, $post_status, $post_type, $post_parent, $original_slug) {
    if ( in_array( $post_status, array( 'draft', 'pending', 'auto-draft' ) ) )
        return $slug;

    global $wpdb, $wp_rewrite;

    // store slug made by original function
    $wp_slug = $slug;

    // reset slug to original slug
    $slug = $original_slug;

    $feeds = $wp_rewrite->feeds;
    if ( ! is_array( $feeds ) )
        $feeds = array();

    $hierarchical_post_types = get_post_types( array('hierarchical' => true) );
    if ( 'attachment' == $post_type ) {
        // Attachment slugs must be unique across all types.
        $check_sql = "SELECT post_name FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = %s AND ID != %d LIMIT 1";
        $post_name_check = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( $check_sql, $slug, $post_ID ) );

        if ( $post_name_check || in_array( $slug, $feeds ) || apply_filters( 'wp_unique_post_slug_is_bad_attachment_slug', false, $slug ) ) {
            $suffix = 2;
            do {
                $alt_post_name = substr ($slug, 0, (200 - ( strlen( $suffix ) + 1 )) ) . "-$suffix";
                $post_name_check = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare($check_sql, $alt_post_name, $post_ID ) );
                $suffix++;

            return $slug;

        // namespace than posts so page slugs are allowed to overlap post slugs.

        $post_name_check = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( $check_sql, $slug, $post_type, $post_ID, $post_parent ) );
