I've read a few posts about this, but can't find a clear answer :(
- I have a custom post type called {ondemand}
- Within the custom post, I have three taxonomies {speakers} and {categories} and {season}
- Each taxonomy has 3-4 terms, for example under {speakers} there is one called [joebloggs]
Currently I have a main URL on our site, where the latest post is placed : www.mysite.com/ondemand
When I filter the posts by taxonomy terms the URL defaults to: www.mysite.com/ondemand/{speakers}/[joebloggs] (uses taxonomy.php to display the results)
However I'd like the URL to be like this for any term filtered: www.mysite.com/ondemand/[joebloggs]
Here's the code that I've used in my functions.php - I tried a re-write in each taxonomy (commented out) but that didn't work - they lead to a 404 page.... Any advice or re-code hints would be very much appreciated
/**
