   Hi,

   I have set up a custom post type of "Products"

   I have also set up a Page called "Products" - which shows an introduction to products etc

   However, I have also added a page called Portfolio and set it to the parent of the Products page, which will display all post types of "product"

   However, because the url is products/portfolio - I am guessing WP is thinking that this must be an existing product rather than the page that has been set up?

   Will also be adding other pages such as products/promotions etc

   Any help would be much appreciated

   Some people having trouble understanding my problem, hope this can clarify:

   Basically:

   http://localhost/products/product-name = post type

   http://localhost/products = page

   http://localhost/products/portfolio = product child page

   but it thinks that portfolio is a post type, which doesn't exist and so renders 404, which makes logical sense.

   However, wondered if its possible to make wordpress check if a page exists first?

   A bit of a hack, but this code worked for us: http://wordpress.pastebin.com/y5bicgum
