Title: Permalink using Location Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Permalink using Location * Resolved [kuboris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kuboris/) * (@kuboris) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/) * Hi I’m trying to follow [this](https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink/) tutorial * And my goal is to create permalinks – website.com/jobs/location/id/name Tutorial in documentation is pretty well written but with my limited knowledge of PHP I haven’t been able to make it work. * I used this part of code to add jobs is to the base url. But I struggle with adding location. * ``` function job_listing_post_type_link( $permalink, $post ) { // Abort if post is not a job if ( $post->post_type !== 'job_listing' ) return $permalink; // Abort early if the placeholder rewrite tag isn't in the generated URL if ( false === strpos( $permalink, '%' ) ) return $permalink; $find = array( '%post_id%' ); $replace = array( $post->ID ); $replace = array_map( 'sanitize_title', $replace ); $permalink = str_replace( $find, $replace, $permalink ); return $permalink; } add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'job_listing_post_type_link', 10, 2 ); function change_job_listing_slug( $args ) { $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'job/%post_id%'; return $args; } add_filter( 'register_post_type_job_listing', 'change_job_listing_slug' ); ``` * How would you create website.com/job/location/id/job-title structure ? All help is appreciated. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager/) Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) * Plugin Author [Mike Jolley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikejolley/) * (@mikejolley) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/#post-5336901) * I’m not sure you’ll be able to get that exact structure because meta data cannot be part of the structure (i.e separated by slashes). Meta data includes things like location, company name etc * You could get something like /job/id/title-location for example though (by default it places the location next to the job title if you submit the job from the frontend). * Thread Starter [kuboris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kuboris/) * (@kuboris) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/#post-5336910) * Is it possible to not use metadata and create this permalink structure using WP Job Manager – Predefined Regions plugin ? * Plugin Author [Mike Jolley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikejolley/) * (@mikejolley) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/#post-5336915) * Possibly, if the jobs have terms for the location yes. It is a little more complex to set that up and you would need to ensure each job has a location set. It may require some dev customisation to get it working flawlessly. * [Stescovich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stescovich/) * (@stescovich) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/#post-5337109) * Hello, * I need some help here… How can I achieve website.com/job/region/category/postname? * I’ve followed instructions ([https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink](https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink)) and placed this on my theme’s functions file: * ``` function job_listing_post_type_link( $permalink, $post ) { // Abort if post is not a job if ( $post->post_type !== 'job_listing' ) { return $permalink; } // Abort early if the placeholder rewrite tag isn't in the generated URL if ( false === strpos( $permalink, '%' ) ) { return $permalink; } // Get the custom taxonomy terms in use by this post $categories = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, 'job_listing_category', array( 'orderby' => 'parent', 'order' => 'ASC' ) ); $regions = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, 'job_listing_region', array( 'orderby' => 'parent', 'order' => 'ASC' ) ); if ( empty( $categories ) ) { // If no terms are assigned to this post, use a string instead (can't leave the placeholder there) $job_listing_category = _x( 'uncategorized', 'slug' ); } else { // Replace the placeholder rewrite tag with the first term's slug $first_term = array_shift( $categories ); $job_listing_category = $first_term->slug; } if ( empty( $regions ) ) { // If no terms are assigned to this post, use a string instead (can't leave the placeholder there) $job_listing_region = _x( 'anywhere', 'slug' ); } else { // Replace the placeholder rewrite tag with the first term's slug $first_term = array_shift( $regions ); $job_listing_region = $first_term->slug; } $find = array( '%category%', '%region%' ); $replace = array( $job_listing_category, $job_listing_region ); $replace = array_map( 'sanitize_title', $replace ); $permalink = str_replace( $find, $replace, $permalink ); return $permalink; } add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'job_listing_post_type_link', 10, 2 ); function change_job_listing_slug( $args ) { $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'job/%region%/%category%'; return $args; } add_filter( 'register_post_type_job_listing', 'change_job_listing_slug' ); function add_category_endpoint_tag() { add_rewrite_tag( '%category%', '([^/]*)' ); } add_action( 'init', 'add_category_endpoint_tag' ); ``` * All works perfect but when I click a link to visit any wp job post it gives me 404 error. * Hope you can help Mike * Greetings Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) The topic ‘Permalink using Location’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/wp-job-manager/assets/icon-256x256.gif?rev=2975257) * [WP Job Manager](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-job-manager/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-job-manager/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-job-manager/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-job-manager/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-job-manager/reviews/) ## Tags * [permalink](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/permalink/) * 4 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Stescovich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stescovich/) * Last activity: [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-using-location/#post-5337109) * Status: resolved
