I have a SEO problem as the structure of the site on WordPress is squad.
The site has ordinary cutters and are custom. They are structurally interested in information, but not in the URL. The task of tie them. The solution has never been found on the Internet.
Example:
Page
https://website.com/page1
https://website.com/page2
Custom Post Type
https://website.com/custom/page1/post1
https://website.com/custom/page2/post2
I need cut /custom/ and put this post1 under page1 of that page and another posts under another pages.
In register_post_type I was made rewrite
`
'rewrite' => [
'slug' => '/',
'with_front' => false
],
`
so this remove my /custom/. Can any say me where I can find guide how to transfer this custom_post_type under /page*/?
I tried change permalinks via permalinks plugin, but it doesn't solve my issue.

I'm struggling with this, despite being okay at WordPress dev.
I've created a custom post type called links
I've also created a custom taxonomy called link-type
All works fine when using archive.php in the root of the theme.
However I want links to be a child page of resources so:
example.com/links/ would become example.com/resources/links/
And clicking on a taxonomy term link for example downloads would take you to example.com/resources/links/downloads/
I'm aware of has_archive and rewrite and with_front and slug but can't understand how to use these to achieve the aforementioned structure.
As always, expert help is much appreciated.
When you register your post type, just add whatever you want to the slug in the rewrite argument, forward slashes are acceptable in slugs.
$args = array(
'labels' => $labels,
...
'rewrite' => array(
'slug' => 'resources/links',
'with_front' => true
),
);
This will give you https://example.com/resources/links/, even if you have a page already at https://example.com/resources/.
I almost forgot, you'll need to make sure your flush your rewrite rules (this can be done programatically when the CPT is registered, or you can just go to your Settings > Permalinks option page and click Save Changes to accomplish the same thing one time.
I have a custom post with post-type "podcast" and now my podcast post single URL is http://localhost/sitename/blog/podcast/post-name. But I want to show post-type "podcast" URL like: http://localhost/sitename/test/podcast/post-name.
Currently site permalink is set to custom structure with /blog/%postname%. So blog is showing with each custom post type. And I want to keep permalink structure same but blog will not show in "podcast" post URL.
I have already created a new file for single podcast with copied single.php and changed name to single-podcast.php. It's working fine with http://localhost/xyz/blog/podcast/post-name but I want to show different name in URL.
Can you please suggest a solution for this?
Have you tried rewrite options?
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type#Parameters
Example:
[
'rewrite' => [
'slug' => 'your/custom/post/slug/here',
'with_front' => false,
],
]
I have created a custom post type and it permalink shows blog/ into the single page,
For eg : www.example.com/blog/event/wine-tasting/
I need this blog/ to be removed from the single page URL and it should come like,
www.example.com/event/wine-tasting/
I did some research and came up with this post:
When you register the custom post type, you have to specify that the
rewrite rule shouldn't be prepended with the existing URL structure.
In short, this means that this line in your register_post_type call:
'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'projects'), should turn into this:
'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'projects','with_front' => false), For
more info, check out the rewrite argument from the codex entry on
register_post_type
edit: just make sure that, after updating the code, you flush the
rewrite rules by visiting Settings > Permalinks. Otherwise you'll
still see the old links. - andreiio

Another Question
Overview
I have a Custom Post Type called Locations. When the user visits /locations, I would like them to see some general information about all the locations. When the user visits /location/{a-location}, I would like them to see specific information about "a-location". Sounds easy enough.
1st Solution Attempt
I created a Locations page in the Wordpress dashboard to hold the content for the /locations url. I then created an archive-locations.php file and a single-location.php. archive-locations.php pulls info out of the Locations page and it lists all of the custom post type Locations. When the user clicks on a link for a location, the user gets redirected to /locations/{a-location} and single-location.php gets called. This almost does the trick, but it just doesn't feel right and it's creating some other problems.
The Problem
When a user visits /locations I would prefer to be working with a page template for the Locations page (instead of the archive-locations.php page). I'm using the Yoast plugin to specify a custom meta title and description for each page. Since archive-locations.php is being used, all of this meta gets ignored.
2nd Solution Attempt
So I created a page-locations.php template for the Locations page and I was hoping that it would get called instead of the archive-locations.php. Unfortunately, it does not. I then tried removing the archive-locations.php thinking that maybe it was taking precedence. That didn't help either; Wordpress simply renders index.php. If I disable the Custom Post type and visit /locations, then my page template is called correctly. It looks like naming a custom post type the same name as a page causes Wordpress some issues. However, I need to be somewhat similar for the URL structures to work out. /locations needs to pull from a page template; /locations/{a-location} needs to pull from another php pfile.
Question
Is there any way to get page templates and custom post types with similar slugs to work together? If not, I guess my only option is to enhance my header.php and be smarter about determining the title and description when I'm on /locations.
Here's the code that registers my custom post type in case I'm doing something wrong:
$args = array(
'labels' => $labels,
'description' => 'Holds our location specific data',
'public' => true,
'menu_position' => 20,
'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'page-attributes' ),
'hierarchical' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'rewrite' => array('with_front' => false, 'slug' => 'locations') //remove /news/ from the permalink when displaying a custom post type
);
register_post_type( 'locations', $args );
(I also tried changing has_archive to false, but it didn't help.)
What you are trying to do, I once managed to get done easily. I mean having custom post type and use its slug with cusotm page.
Did you try to flush rewrite rules? (just visit Permalink page and save the rules as they are)
So I created a page-locations.php template for the Locations page and I was hoping that it would get called instead of the archive-locations.php. Unfortunately, it does not.

You do not write, how do you load your page template. Do you rely on automatic WP connection of pageslug and page-pageslug.php or you set page template through Page attributes menu?
I registered custom post type named e-books in wordpress and have also registered a taxonomy for that as well here goes the code
register_taxonomy('ebookgenre', 'ebooks',
array(
'label' => __( 'Categories' ),
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'category' ),
'hierarchical' => true,
)
);
But when i am listing all taxonomy from ebookgenre and linking them it is going to 404. please tell me which file or temlate should i use.
Thanks
See WordPress' template hierarchy documentation.
You must create a file called taxonomy-ebookgenre.php in your theme directory (or have one of taxonomy.php, archive.php, or index.php files).
Also, you should go to the WordPress Admin > Settings > Permalinks page. Simple visit the page, and WordPress will regenerate your rewrite rules. Your taxonomy will not work until you do this first. This is due to WordPress caching URL rewrite rules, so if you added your taxonomy after these were cached, the URLs won't work. Whenever you visit the permalink settings page, the rewrite rules are flushed and re-cached.
