How can I use a WP Custom Rewrite to remove part of a slug, like how php's explode() works?
I want to have these URLs:
/reports/biotech/deals/
/reports/retail/deals/
/reports/finance/deals/
where
- "reports" is my Custom Post Type rewrite slug,
- the industries ("biotech", "retai", and "finance") are terms of my Custom Taxonomy (I already have a function to add them to the permalink),
- "deals" is the re-written slug that I'm asking about now.
But since slugs must be unique, I can't just type in "deals" for all three posts. I'd need something like:
- deals-1
- deals-2
- deals-3
So I'm looking for a way to remove the suffixes (the "-1", "-2", and "-3" parts) from each slug, as displayed to the user in the url. In php, I would say
$slug_array = explode('-',$slug);
$slug = $slug_array[0] . "/" ;
But I don't know how to accomplish this with Rewrites.
Any help much appreciated!
