// nothing, can't get this working :(
} else
$chain .= $name. $separator;
return $chain;
}
In wp-admin shows link “http:/mydomain.com/vehicles/truck/man/a4/”
But it generates real link like “http://mydomain.com/mydomain.com/vehicles/truck/man/ret/” and “http:/mydomain.com/vehicles/truck/man/a4/” gives 404. What I’m doing wrong.

All looks well, but “Error 404 – page not found” stays.
Please help to understand how to solve this issue.
Regards to all who read and reply.
I believe you need to make sure your custom taxonomy does not have a capital letter in the name parameter. It took me quite a while to realize that on a site a few months ago.
edit:
My comment refers to the use of register taxonomy, which in second review it looks like you are using the proper naming convention for the taxonomy name parameter.
