 * Hopefully these two links help you out more. These are topics not exclusive to
   our plugin here.

 * Hi there,
    I added a template for the posts, but when I add a template for my
   custom taxonomy, It leads me to a 404 error page, I only can see the terms, for
   example:
 * [http://www.page.com/customtaxonomy](http://www.page.com/customtaxonomy) = Error
   404
    [http://www.page.com/customtaxonomy/term1](http://www.page.com/customtaxonomy/term1)
   = Display content (with its template taxonomy-customtaxonomy.php)
 * So I hope you could help me please.
 * Thanks in advance

 * I don’t believe there’s any WP-core native way for an archive listing of all 
   of the terms in a taxonomy. You’d have to do some custom querying on specific
   urls and using specific templates to achieve that. So this is something outside
   the scope of the plugin as well.

 * Hi can you add a page template on a new post type? Keep up the good work.

 * No out of the box way similar to how pages have that select dropdown along the
   right in the post editor. I made one using template_include and post meta, but
   that’s still a custom solution.
