• So i’ve looked all day for this and it doesn’t like permalinks work with custom post type. Here’s what I’m trying.

    I have property-listings custom post type.

    What I want is for the landing like a blog posts page to display 10 properties per page. So I was thinking a shortcode within my post type. So lets say I do that I want this page to live at http://www.mysite.com/listings/

    Then I want to create another for solds and for active listings. I was thinking attributes “active” and “sold” on the shortcode then create the following pages.

    http://www.mysite.com/listings/sold
    http://www.mysite.com/listings/active

    Then I want my actual customs posts under each. for example

    http://www.mysite.com/listings/sold/%5Bpost-title%5D/

    I would do this by selecting the page parent when I write my post (I hacked it so I could choose my page parent)

    But that isn’t possible hey? I have to have a slug and I have to use it in my custom post type?

    Kind of makes for bad urls. Unless someone knows how I can best achieve this.

    Save me! Thanks

    If this is true then that means you can never create a custom post type for your home page could it could never be at / ?
