Add 'virtual' sub-pages to a custom post type

    HI –

    I’ve looked for an answer/direction for this, but I’m not sure what to start with/where to look.

    I have a custom post type of ‘expeditions’ – this post type contains a whole bunch of custom information (set up with advanced custom fields) which I would like to split up into individual pages, so, for ‘expedition-1’ I’d like to be able to use the following sort of navigation structure:

    Landing page: site.com/expeditions/expedition-1
    Sub page 1: site.com/expeditions/expedition-1/overview
    Sub page 2: site.com/expeditions/expedition-1/itinerary
    Sub page 3: site.com/expeditions/expedition-1/map
    …And so on…

    At the moment, I’m using single-expeditions.php to serve up the main landing page, but does anyone have a good plan to implement the other pages?

    I’m happy to use htaccess, or whatever else to get this working.

    Please forgive my terminology – I’m not sure if I’ve expressed this question in the right way, so please let me know if there is any extra information needed and I can edit the question!

    I guess my fallback solution would be to change the expeditions from being custom post types into pages, but I like the fact that the functionality is compartmentalised and isolated.

    Hope someone can assist.

    Thanks,

    Toby
