I am attempting to create a hierarchical list of products in WordPress 3.5.1. For example if the custom post type product was in the custom taxonomy Outdoor > Garden Tools > Hoses
, these would be the desired permalinks:
/outdoor/garden-tools/hoses/mega-hose/
(loads the single.php template)
/outdoor/garden-tools/hoses/
(loads the archive.php template)
What is the best practice approach to achieving this?
I have generated the permalinks with all multiple levels of parent categories successfully for the posts and terms using the post_type_link
and term_link
filters respectively. There appears to be a problem with the URL rewriting though as the permalinks return 404 responses, I can’t seem to figure out how these requests are functioning (where “xx” can be any string):
/xx/mega-hose/
(returns mega hose page)
/xx/xx/mega-hose/
(redirects to /outdoor/garden-tools/hoses/mega-hose/ and returns a 404)
Any help would be much appreciated!
