This is a little “hacky”, but when you call get_permalink and you need the permalink for a draft, provide a clone of your post object with the details filled in: global $post; if ( in_array( $post->post_status, array( ‘draft’, ‘pending’, ‘auto-draft’ ) ) ) { $my_post = clone $post; $my_post->post_status=”publish”; $my_post->post_name = sanitize_title( $my_post->post_name ? $my_post->post_name … Read more
Extend the ‘rewrite’ argument to suppress the first URL part: ‘rewrite’ => array( ‘with_front’ => false, ‘slug’ => ‘product’ ) But using just %postname% for different post types is really tricky and error prone. Avoid it.
There is a plugin for wordpress which allows you to handle 404 errors and redirect to specific pages. So if wordpress calls your post /events/2013/june/fishing-trip-2, you could go into the plugin and add a rule so that /events/2013/june/fishing-trip points to /events/2013/june/fishing-trip-2. It’s not a perfect solution, as you’d have to manually enter each duplicate post … Read more
These types of URLs are supported since WP 3.1: register_taxonomy( ‘types’, ‘post’, array( ‘hierarchical’ => true, ‘rewrite’ => array( ‘hierarchical’ => true ), … ); Remember to flush the rewrite rules after making the change. The template you would use for both parent and child terms is taxonomy-types.php: $current_term = get_queried_object(); if ( 0 == … Read more
That happens because WordPress reads your old post name as category name now – and it cannot find that category. Solution: filter 404_template and try to find the post and its permalink. Then redirect. <?php # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- /* Plugin Name: Redirect to category */ add_filter( ‘404_template’, ‘t5_redirect_to_category’ ); function t5_redirect_to_category( $template ) … Read more
I’ve just done a project where two Custom Post Types needed to share the same slug. The trick is to overwrite the query vars via the request filter. Let’s call the post types ‘foo’ and ‘bar’, and they will share slug ‘foo’. The following code is rough and from memory for example only. Salt to … Read more
This by default is not possible, and using the CPT and Custom Tax registration APIs, is not possible. And for good reason. It’s all to do with permalink and slug clashes, and removing ambiguity. Admittedly there are cases where unique URLs that never overlap are not allowed by the system for this reason ( false … Read more
Step 1, add the rewrite tags for custom event year and month query vars, then register the event post type with those tags in the slug argument of the rewrite argument: function wpa83531_register_event_post_type(){ add_rewrite_tag(‘%event_year%’,'(\d+)’); add_rewrite_tag(‘%event_month%’,'(.+)’); register_post_type( ‘event’, array( ‘public’ => true, ‘rewrite’ => array( ‘slug’ => ‘events/%event_year%/%event_month%’ ), ‘has_archive’ => false, ‘hierarchical’ => false, ‘supports’ … Read more
Remove the ‘fastcgi_intercept_errors’ argument from you configuration. It’s unnecessary since ‘error_page’ declares 404 errors, which should be handled by index.php, which will trigger PHP-FPM to handle it, and WordPress to present your theme’s 404 page. It seems counter-intuitive, but ‘fastcgi_intercept_errors’ is actually causing PHP not to handle the error page.
Suppose articles is slug of the category. 1. Add a custom rewrite rule: add_action(‘init’, function() { add_rewrite_rule(‘^articles/([^/]+)/?$’, ‘index.php?name=$matches[1]’, ‘top’); }, 10, 0); 2. Filter the post link: add_filter(‘post_link’, function($post_link, $post, $leave_name = false, $sample = false) { if ( has_category(‘articles’, $post) ) { $post_link = str_replace(“https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” . $post->post_name, ‘/articles/’ . $post->post_name, $post_link); } return $post_link; … Read more
