We want a simpe CPT called resources, and when creating each entry in this type, we need categories (taxonomies) that should show up as a checkbox list of category on the right hand side in the admin area.
So each resource will actually have a type:
- Health related
- Finance related etc
The URLs will be:
/resources (overall resources page)
/resources/health (resource category/taxonomy listing page)
/resources/health/find-a-clinic (each resource post)
I used the Custom Post Type (CPT) plugin, which kind of worked, but taxonomies created this way did NOT show up like categories, they showed up like tags that I had to manually remember and type in a box on the right hand side. Also, the URL structure was useless--only "resources/find-a-clinic
", there was no taxonomy landing page.
What's a good simple way to do this without using plugins?
Many thanks
