 * Alright, is it just me, or does the my_qmt_url function not do anything at all?

 * Hi,
 * Still unsolved and I am considering backing up my entire site and re-installing
   it to try to get this working.
 * I did add ‘revisions’ to my supports array.

 * Not yet. I am consistently able to get the function to change the front of the
   url I generate, such as adding “people” to “example.com/people/?topics=studios”
 * What I want to do is to add “/?post_type=people&” to the front of my urls. I’ll
   let everyone know if there are any developments.

 * Um, actually, in what I just typed out the post didn’t collate properly. Here’s
   what I meant:
 * Studios:
    -Columbia Pictures -Hanna Barbera Studios -Paramount Studios –Fleischer
   Studios -Universal Studios -Walt Disney Studios –Pixar Animation Studios -Warner
   Bros.

 * Well, in my case I have a taxonomy which sorts a great deal of my site into
 * -Animation Types
    -Animation Series -Countries -Research Subjects -Studios -Timeline
 * Lower level taxonomies might look like
 * -Studios
    – Columbia Pictures – Hanna Barbera Studios – Paramount Studios – Fleischer
   Studios – Universal Studios – Walt Disney Studios – Pixar Animation Studios –
   Warner Bros.
 * In this case, and in others, I don’t want the top-level of the taxonomy, “Studios,”
   to be navigable. I don’t want people to be able to see all posts that have any
   studio associated with them because it isn’t a useful query. I would, however,
   like them to view all posts associated with child and grandchild terms – some
   posts might only be attached to “paramount studios” and not as a lower level 
   term.
 * In other areas this is even more important – I have a timeline which breaks up
   everything into decades (1890s, 1900s, 1910s, etc) and then has lower level taxonomies
   for years (1890, 1891, 1892, etc). I want people to be able to browse by decade
   or year but not by the “Timeline” taxonomy itself.
 * Thanks so much for the reply. If there is a way I can achieve this than that 
   would be preferable – even if I could introduce a class for top-level taxonomies
   and unlink them through CSS or JS? Otherwise I may just add more taxonomies –
   so Paramount would have a subtaxonomy of “All Paramount,” 1890s would have a 
   subtaxonomy of “All 1890s”. It would of course be preferable to index from the
   child terms themselves though.

 * Amazing!! Works perfectly!!
 * I was under the impression that a PHP function couldn’t be run straight out of
   an HTML link without a separate script or AJAX, but I guess I was mistaken! This
   is much cleaner (and more functional) than what I was attempting!

 * keesiemeijer, thanks for responding! What I am trying to do is to make links 
   in my sidebar which add a post_type argument to the existing query string of 
   an archive page.
 * I didn’t know about these functions, hence why I was using the other ones. But
   I will definitely try them out. They look like they might do exactly what I was
   hoping for.

 * Hi all,
 * I’ve rewritten this a bit to see if I can get it to work, following jquery ajax
   tutorials.
 * I have moved the PHP function I want to execute to my functions.php file. My 
   sidebar now looks like this:
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js">
       </script>
       <h2>Show... </h2>
       <script type="text/javascript">
       function showAll() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"" });
           return false;
       }
       function showAnimation() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"animation" });
           return false;
       }
       function showPeople() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"people" });
           return false;
       }
       function showResources() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"resources" });
           return false;
       }
       function showStudios() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"studios" });
           return false;
       }
       function showWiki() {
           $.get("addquery.php", { value:"wiki" });
           return false;
       }
       </script>
       <a href="#" onclick="showAll();">All</a>
       <a href="#" onclick="showAnimation();">Animation</a>
       <a href="#" onclick="showPeople();">People</a>
       <a href="#" onclick="showStudios();">Studios</a>
       <a href="#" onclick="showResources();">Resources</a>
       <a href="#" onclick="showWiki();">Wiki</a><br /><br />
       <h2>Browse by topic... </h2>
       <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar(7) ) : else : ?>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * My “Addquery.php” file which I am using to execute the function looks like this:
 *     ```
       <?php
       $_GET['value'] = $value;
       add_querystring_var($url, 'post_type', $value);
       ?>
       ```
   
 * But when I run the functions, nothing happens. I can see in chrome that the browser
   is trying to access “mysite.com/addquery.php?value=wiki” correctly and that it
   is receiving an error. The error is “Failed to load resource: the server responded
   with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)”
 * Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might proceed?

 * Does anyone have any experience doing this? I’m willing coding strategy if I 
   can accomplish this another way. I don’t really know AJAX but it seems to me 
   like this piece of code here is doing nothing:
 *     ```
       if (isset($_GET['run'])) $linkchoice=$_GET['run'];
       else $linkchoice='';
       ```

 * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-empty-queries-filter-automatically-by-custom-post-type-of-archive/#post-3223788)
 * I’ve tried arranging the code in a number of different ways… currently:
 *     ```
       function my_qmt_base_url( $url, $CPTquery ) {
       	if ( is_post_type_archive ()) {
       		$CPTquery = get_post_type( $post->slug );
       }
       $url = '?post_type='.$CPTquery.'&';
           return $url;
       }
       add_filter( 'qmt_base_url', 'my_qmt_base_url' );
       ```
   
 * The results are the same and I don’t see “?post_type=whatever” in my query string.
   I’m not sure this is a problem with calling the name of the post type, because
   I can set up the above code with $url = ‘TEST?post_type=’ and I will get a URL
   which looks like “example.com/TEST?resource_type=&topics=&timeline=”. If I set
   $url as a fixed value, like ‘?post_type=resource’, it does not affect the URL
   at all. The code seems to refuse to relay anything after the question mark before
   post_type. Any ideas?

 * Still struggling but after a few hours I think that the code looks closer to 
   what it should:
 *     ```
       function my_qmt_base_url() {
       	if (is_post_type_archive()) {
       		$CPTquery = get_post_type( $post->name );
       }
           return add_query_arg( 'post_type', $CPTquery );
       }
       add_filter( 'qmt_base_url', 'my_qmt_base_url' );
       ```
   
 * I’ve started a new thread so not to monopolize this one: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-empty-queries-filter-automatically-by-custom-post-type-of-archive?replies=1#post-3453695](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-empty-queries-filter-automatically-by-custom-post-type-of-archive?replies=1#post-3453695)

 * Yeah, I’m using version 1.62 of QMT.
 * I want to query ‘resource’, ‘people’, ‘animation’, ‘studios’ and ‘wiki’, depending
   on if I’m in the resource, people, animation, studios, or wiki archives, respectively.
 * Following this ([http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-query-multiple-taxonomies-base-url-problem?replies=6#post-3452905](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-query-multiple-taxonomies-base-url-problem?replies=6#post-3452905))
   I’ve come up with the following code… though it doesn’t seem to actually affect
   my queries.
 *     ```
       if ( is_post_type_archive() ) {
   
           $CPTquery = get_post_type( $post->name );
       }
   
       function my_qmt_base_url() {
       	return '../?post_type=' . $CPTquery;
       }
       add_filter( 'qmt_base_url', 'my_qmt_base_url' );
       ```
