Duplicate Portions of Permalinks in Hierarchical Taxonomies

Resolved jhoysi

5 years ago

I’m using this plugin on a site (currently in dev) that has a hierarchical custom taxonomy (product-category) applied to a custom post type (products). The page URLs themselves, for the most part, are working extremely well. There are two outlying issues, both seeming to do with our hierarchical taxonomy and duplicate portions of the permalink structure:

1. There are a couple of archive URLs that force redirect to a path that duplicates. Example: http://ecpwr.sinsightsdev.com/products/cooling/inrow-cooling/ redirects to http://ecpwr.sinsightsdev.com/products/cooling/cooling/inrow-cooling/

2. The breadcrumbs have a similar thing happening when the page viewed is either an archive of a child term, or a single product page that has a child term applied to it.

If you look at this URL (http://ecpwr.sinsightsdev.com/products/power/double-conversion-ups/three-phase/eaton-9395/) and take a look at the breadcrumb closest to the page name (Three Phase), you’ll see that the full URL repeats a part of the path: /products/power/double-conversion-ups/power/double-conversion-ups/three-phase/. The same thing happens when you look at the next breadcrumb in the chain – /products/power/power/double-conversion-ups/

Both versions of each URL (with and without the repeating segment) get the user where they’re going, but for consistency and cleanliness is it possible to remove the duplicating segments?

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi! I’m also having trouble with a custom post type / taxonomy.

It seems that on taxonomy pages with a child taxonomy, the slugs are being duplicated.

See the following, which should be Housing > Homeslessness Prevention:
https://camba.jilla.sg-host.com/programs/housing/housing/homelessnessprevention/

The Housing slug shows up twice. This happens on all the child taxonomies such as:

https://camba.jilla.sg-host.com/programs/educationyouthdevelopment/educationyouthdevelopment/educationcenter/
https://camba.jilla.sg-host.com/programs/health/health/nutritionalservices/

And, the URLs on my child program pages are out of order. For example:

https://camba.jilla.sg-host.com/programs/project-aly/health/hivaidsprevention/stories-of-acceptance/

This should be:

https://camba.jilla.sg-host.com/programs/health/hivaidsprevention/project-aly/stories-of-acceptance/

Try to remove and reinstall plugin. I tested subordinate taxonomies and I have no problems.

Can you create a test environment for testing?

Thanks for the reply! I removed and reinstalled plugin and I have the same issue.

Also, the site in a staging site, so it is for testing.

Do you use any other plugins or your own themes?

Jill Anderson

Yes, both. Do you want a list of the plugins? The theme is custom.

Just did as suggested the problem is still there. I also flushed permalinks and resaved the WP Better Permalink settings.

Can you give me database dump and files from FTP?

It is important that the default view and the least plugins can be there.

Please delete all personal data. I need a test environment to discover the error and try to fix it.

Yep, I’ve included a database dump + files in the link below. It’s from my local version of the site which mirrors what’s up on staging.

@jillbalkus, thanks. Please delete the link. I downloaded the files.

In a few days I will try to take care of it. Forgive for the waiting time.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled and the problem is persisting for me as well. It’s exactly as Jill states above – child taxonomies have the parent repeat on their archive pages.

I understand you’re working to find and resolve the issue. I will wait to hear the result. Thank you for your time and attention!

As the OP of the issue, would it be OK if I recreated the issue I’m having?
