 * Hi.
 * I use the custom post type. I have a problem with the template of the archive,
   while the template of the post (single-customname.php) is ok.
 * I created the file “archive-customname.php”, I reset the permalink many times,
   but the archive template doesn’t function.
 * When I go to “www.example.com/?post_type=customname”, I see all the posts, but
   when I go to “www.example.com/customname/” there is a 404 error page.
 * I use also “has_archive => true”.
 * How can I resolve?

 * I resolved. I wrote **has_archive => ‘true’** instead **has_archive => true**
