Support › MB Custom Post Type › Custom post type archive not showingResolved
Hi,
I created a custom post type and setup a custom archive slug but I get a "page not found" error. Do I have to create the page manually with this custom slug?
Then, if I try with the default post type slug, I don't get the 404 error, but posts are not shown.
I read other topics saying they're having issues with permalinks. I tried changing it but it didn't work either.
I'm using Oxygen, if that helps. I created a template for the custom post type and a template for the custom post type archive as well.
Thanks,
Forget to say that, when I'm editing the custom post type archive template, I can see the created posts, but when I go to the frontend, nothing is shown.
Hi Ameneses,
Please try to use the option Custom rewrite slug
to change the archive slug. Screenshot https://share.getcloudapp.com/9Zuxywz9.
Let me know how it goes.
Tried that but still not working. I also removed the custom slug and rewrite slug to use the default one, but it still shows a blank page.
I updated to the latest Meta Box version you just released.
Thanks,
This how it looks when editing the Oxygen template.
And this is how it looks in the frontend.
Hi,
Can you please deactivate the plugin Oxygen and re-check the archive page with a theme? And please share all your screen include the page URL.
Hi,
I deactivated Oxygen plugin, and using twenty twenty-one theme, custom post archive is shown. Although, using a custom archive slug shows a 404.
So, Oxygen is not compatible with Meta Box?
Thanks,
Hi,
The plugin MB Custom Post Type just helps you to create the custom post type visually with a few clicks instead of using the code https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/.
You can generate the PHP code that creates the CPT and execute it with Code Snippets plugin to re-check the issue.
If it does not work, I recommend contacting Oxygen support to ask for help in this case.
