So I need to have page slug Blog before post title I used rewrite rule to achieve this but doing this resulting me in 404 errors for paginations the below is the code I used to rewrite.

add_action( 'init', 'my_new_default_post_type', 1 );
function my_new_default_post_type() {

    register_post_type( 'post', array(
        'labels' => array(
            'name_admin_bar' => _x( 'Post', 'add new on admin bar' ),
        ),
        'public'  => true,
        '_builtin' => false, 
        '_edit_link' => 'post.php?post=%d', 
        'capability_type' => 'post',
        'map_meta_cap' => true,
        'hierarchical' => false,
        'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'blog' ),
        'query_var' => false,
        'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'trackbacks', 'custom-fields', 'comments', 'revisions', 'post-formats' ),

  • You're trying to use a built in post type name "post". That won't go well. Aug 10, 2016 at 12:27

There are a number of reserved post type names in WordPress that you can't overwrite. They can be found on the codex:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type

'post' is one of them.

  • @dh47 you can't create your own post type named 'post'
