Changing Custom Post Permalink Structure
-
Hi all,
I’m running a theme which uses custom post types. However, I wish to change the permalinks to my posts to include the PostID.
I have added this code:
add_action('init', 'movies_rewrite'); function movies_rewrite() { global $wp_rewrite; $wp_rewrite->add_permastruct('movies', 'Movies-detail/%postname%-%post_id%', true, 1); add_rewrite_rule('movies/([0-9]{4})/(.+)/?$', 'index.php?movies=$matches[2]', 'top'); $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(); // !!! }
…and it works!
If I go to http://www.example.com/Movies-detail/examplepost-1234/, it comes up with the correct post, and everything’s updated.
Well… not quite.
All of the links on every page still point to the old permalinks, resulting in a 404 error: they’re not updated.
I’ve gone to the Settings>>Permalinks page and saved the settings, changed them and re-saved, cleared my server cache, my local cache, everything, and I’m finally led to assume it’s a problem in the code – or a line or two I’ve missed.
How can I update all the permalinks on my site to direct to the new structure?
Thanks in advance
