Auto Links not working with custom taxonomy

Hi @kdcpelt

Thanks for using TaxoPress. Yes, that’s possible as TaxoPress processes the regular Title and Body area of WordPress posts.

If a 3rd party plugin had made alterations to the Body area, as this plugin appears to, the Auto Links feature may not work.

Hi @stevejburge, I really like Taxopress. I appreciate the info on the possible conflict. I assumed that if Would using the pro version of Taxopress alleviate this issue? Or does Taxopress just not work at all when there is an alteration to the the body or title in a custom post type? If the latter is true, do you recommend any workarounds?

Hi @kdcpelt. We’d need to dig into exactly what this Directorist plugin is doing.

Are other custom post types on your site working OK with Auto Links?

That’s the only one for this site, but I’m working on other sites where I intend on using Taxopress with custom post types (just not there yet).

If I were able to add a class in the template for the directory such that auto links could find the text, would that work? For example, if I added a code snippet that always appended the container class with “taxopress-auto-links”…I wonder if auto links could then find the text. I’m not sure if that is how it works.

@kdcpelt Sorry, it’s not as easy as that because of a choice by the developer of this Directorist plugin.

TaxoPress will process content that is displayed using the_content(), which is the WordPress standard: https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/the_content/.

The developers can use that, or they could run their output via:

$content = apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $post->post_content );
