I am making an attempt to customise the permalink of some youngster pages.
I’ve this construction:
instance.com/story/story-name-slug/chapter-slug/page-slug
And I am making an attempt to reworking that construction into this:
instance.com/part/page-slug
But additionally I wish to preserve the opposite hyperlinks energetic, so in the long run I ought to have the next:
instance.com/story
-> archive of all story;
instance.com/story/story-name-slug
-> record of all chapters;
instance.com/part/page-slug
-> web page with personalized url.
Needless to say instance.com/story/story-name-slug/chapter-slug
isn’t a web page that may be visited by customers. It is solely used to archive the hierarchical relation between pages.
In the meanwhile I bought the url construction working with the next code in capabilities.php:
add_filter('page_link', 'custom_permalink', 10, 3);
add_filter('page_type_link', 'custom_permalink', 10, 3);
operate custom_permalink($permalink, $post_id) {
$publish = get_post($post_id);
$post_name = $post->post_name;
$id_chapter = $post->post_parent;
$id_story = wp_get_post_parent_id($id_chapter);
$id_stories = wp_get_post_parent_id($id_story);
if ($id_chapter !== 0 && $id_story !== 0 && $id_stories ) {
// the static base url is only for testing
$permalink = 'instance.com/part/' . $post_name ;
} else {
$permalink = $permalink;
}
return $permalink;
}
This works however not because it shoudl, I get the appropriate URLs on the appropriate pages however once I go to these pages I get a 404 Error not discovered.
After some digging within the sql queris that get executed I feel that the issue is that WP is deciding on wp_posts.post_type="attachment"
as an alternative of wp_posts.post_type="web page"
.
I feel {that a} rewrite rule is required someplace to specify within the sql question what to pick, however this goes over my present capabilities.
If it is wanted I can present all of the queries that get executed on the web page with and with out the filter that I added.
Thanks!
