Working on a new theme project and I created a custom post type called products with its own custom taxonomy. I want the URL structure to be:
http://example.com/products/main_category/subcategory1/subcategory2/postname/
I found this solution here:
function filter_post_type_link($link, $post)
{
if ($post->post_type == 'products')
return $link;
if ($cats = get_the_terms($post->ID, 'product_categories'))
$link = str_replace('%product_categories%', array_pop($cats)->slug, $link);
return $link;
}
add_filter('post_type_link', 'filter_post_type_link', 10, 2);
With this solution I was able to create this structure:
http://example.com/products/category/postname/
So subcategories still won't show in the URL...
The other problem is that when I set the taxonomy hierarchical => true the url looks like this when I browse the product categories:
http://example.com/products/category1/subcategory1-category1/subcategory2-subcategory1-category1/
and also when hierarchical => true is present the code I mentioned above stops working.
So what I want to achieve with product urls basically is this: If product belongs to the main category:
http://example.com/products/main_category/postname/
If product belongs to subcategory1:
http://example.com/products/main_category/subcategory1/postname/
If product belongs to subcategory2:
http://example.com/products/main_category/subcategory1/subcategory2/postname/
Of course if I delete post name from the above urls wp should show the appropriate category. This would be a nice hierarchical structure.
Do You know any solutions to make this happen?
