There is earlier post with similar title, but it does not look in to the WordPress 3.3, and that is important as 3.3 advertises interestingly: “Use the postname permalink structure without a performance penalty”
I’ve seen a lot of posts out there in the Webiverse about assigning a page as a parent of a custom post type. After four hours I can’t find a solution and need some help. I’ve create an “About” page that is the parent of an “Our People” page. I’ve also create a custom post type called “People”. And I’ve created a custom page template for the “Our People” page. The Permalink structure looks fine until you get to the single “people” page. For Example: John Smith’s Page, the permalink isn’t correct.
I have a client that strongly prefers to disable .htaccess files because they like to set the Apache configurations themselves. However, they still want SEO-friendly URLs.
I’m making a custom theme. It’s a highly specialized theme to make WordPress into like an application rather than a CMS system or blog. For instance, a Dental Office Scheduling System (with CMS and widget capabilities), as an example.
I am trying to create a SILO structure on one of my WordPress site.
I’ve dug through every question here on custom post type permalinks, but most seem to be either problems with custom taxonomy rewrites, or the obvious missing of flush_rewrite_rules(). But in my case, I’m only using a custom post type (no taxonomy), set to be hierarchical (so I can assign parent-child relationships), with the proper “support” for the attributes metabox, etc, etc. I’ve flushed rewrite rules a thousand different ways. I’ve tried different permalink structures. But child URLs always result in 404!
I’m registering my CPT like so:
I have been trying to find a solution. but I can’t..
I have done a lot of googling on this so I sincerely apologize if there is a codex entry for this but for the life of me I can not find a hard and fast rule about what characters are acceptable in a “slug” ( any slug really, but more specifically for a custom post type in this instance).
I have read the discussion on the performance of different permalinks on the wp hackers mailinglist, THIS forum and around Google.
