Support › MB Custom Post Type › Query variables to the URLResolved
Hello,
In home page, latest posts from a CPT called 'actualite' are displayed. For each post, a custom field is displayed as a link. This link should filter posts with a meta_query by passing argument in url.
Custom query string variables is registered :
function add_custom_query_var( $vars ){
$vars[] = 'residence';
return $vars;
}
add_filter( 'query_vars', 'add_custom_query_var', 10, 1 );
Url is modified to pass parameters to the template archive-actualite.php :
esc_url( add_query_arg( 'residence', $value, site_url( '/actualite' ) ) )
Wordpress do not find the page (404).
Here is my CPT code in MB post Type :
<?php
add_action( 'init', 'your_prefix_register_post_type' );
function your_prefix_register_post_type() {
$labels = [...];
$args = [
'label' => esc_html__( 'Actualités', 'your-textdomain' ),
'labels' => $labels,
'description' => '',
'public' => true,
'hierarchical' => false,
'exclude_from_search' => false,
'publicly_queryable' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
'show_in_admin_bar' => true,
'show_in_rest' => true,
'query_var' => true,
'can_export' => true,
'delete_with_user' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'rest_base' => '',
'show_in_menu' => true,'menu_position' => 27,
'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-megaphone',
'capability_type' => 'page',
'supports' => ['title', 'editor'],
'taxonomies' => [],
'rewrite' => [
'with_front' => true,
],
];
register_post_type( 'actualite', $args );
}
I read lot of forum posts, it should work...
Url re-writting maybe needs to be configured. Permalink settings are set to /%postname%/
I tried with different template (defaut and custom), wordpress never finds the page.
I need help 🙂
Thank you
Hi,
I'm not sure why this does not work on your site, you can try to use the absolute URL and real value like this
esc_url( add_query_arg( 'residence', 'my-value', 'https://yoursite.com/actualite/' ) )
to check if works. Or add variables directly in the URL and access the page
https://yoursite.com/actualite/?residence=my-value
Hi,
Thank you for tips, i have already tried.
I do not understand, it should be simple, i give up 🙁
I will use a taxo instead.
Have a nice day
