I have a custom post type called Career at http://localhost/career/career-test/. I also have lots of meta boxes for it (using Meta Box Tabs), like Skills, Tasks, Tools, etc, that are filled with HTML.

Is it possible to have http://localhost/career/career-test/ show the post content like normal, but have http://localhost/career/career-test/skills/ show the Skills meta box HTML, and http://localhost/career/career-test/tasks/ shows the Tasks meta box HTML, and so on?

I have created single-career.php in my child theme and it loads a single Career using that, but I'm not sure how to work with the URL and meta boxes and if that's been done before.

Thanks!

Hello Andrew,

Meta Box doesn't have an option to add the custom field to the URL. You can try to use a third-party plugin that supports this feature, for example https://permalinkmanager.pro/docs/tutorials/how-to-use-custom-fields-inside-wordpress-permalinks/
