I can’t access the pages for my custom taxonomy

2 Views

I’m working on a recipe site that has a custom post type, recipes, with two custom taxonomies for handling recipe categories and tags. The custom post type works and so does the custom taxonomy for the categories, i.e. i can access individual posts and category pages. However, when I try to access a custom taxonomy tag page, I get the wordpress 404 page.

I don’t really know how to troubleshoot this since wordpress isn’t giving me any useful error codes. Any suggestions?

  1. I’ve run into this issues too, two time, two differents errors, first time I just go to permalink structure in the wordpress options and hit save, that was a problem witht my htaccess files, and the second time it was the way I register the slug,

    Here is a complete working exemple :

    /* Post type : offre_emploi */
register_post_type(
    "offre_emploi", /*Take this in note you'll need it*/
    ...

/* Register Taxonomy */
$labelsEmploisCat = array(
    'name' => _x( 'Catégories', 'post type general name' ),
    'singular_name' => _x( 'Catégorie', 'post type singular name' ),
    'add_new' => _x( 'Ajouter une catégorie', 'client' ),
    'add_new_item' => __( 'Ajouter une catégorie' ),
    'edit_item' => __( 'Modifier une catégorie' ),
    'new_item' => __( 'Modifier une catégorie' ),
    'view_item' => __( 'Voir une catégorie' ),
    'search_items' => __( 'Rechercher une catégorie' ),
    'not_found' =>  __( 'Aucune catégorie' ),
    'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'Aucune catégorie' ),
    'parent_item_colon' => ''
);

register_taxonomy(
    "proprietaires_pieces",
    array("offre_emploi"), //here goes the post type 
    array(
        "hierarchical" => true,
        "labels" => $labelsEmploisCat,
        "rewrite" => true
    )
);

    Hope it’s help you

  2. I’ve run into odd issues with 404’s around custom post types/taxonomies. Try hitting save again on the blog permalinks settings page. Strange as it sounds that cleared up my issues.
