Hi 🙂

Could it be possible to handle tags like %category%/ when using URL Rewrite for Custom Post Types ?

Let’s say I create a post type named “Artists” and I use taxonomy to have musicians, painters, writers, etc.

I’d like to have URLs like this :
http://mysite.tld/musicians/Name
or maybe is it not possible (or harder) to display only one “category” and it would be like this :
http://mysite.tld/artists/musicians/Name

What do you think of that ?

Hi Oliver,

it’s not really impossible, put I’d prefer to avoid adding all the necessary fields/functionality to the plugin.

So far, when working with WordPress rewrites, I’ve always had issues and I’m not confident enough that this will always work and never miss. Also, things will easily get ugly if an artist is contained within multiple terms.

There are many copy-paste solutions for that, including https://wordpress.org/support/topic/insert-category-of-taxonomy-between-custom-post-type-and-post?replies=21 .

If you need me to, I would happily help you with coding if for a particular set of post types/taxonomies, but I’m not willing to include it in the plugin. Sorry.

Best Regards,
Radoslav
