Custom Taxonomy archive page returns 404 Error
-
Hello
I’m new to CPT UI and I’m still sorting some things out. I’ve successfully implemented a custom post type and a custom taxonomy.
I’m trying to set it up so that the category taxonomy has its own category page
Example: mysite.com/my-custom-post-type-slug/my-custom-taxonomy-category-slugThe “view” link in my custom taxonomy WP control panel page reflects the URL I’m expecting—BUT it’s returning an ERROR 404 page. Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2cyyfmtfpqjr1u4/2019-07-17_DCACU_CPTUI_category-slug.png?dl=0
I thought maybe I needed to use a specific template so I added archive-my-custom-post-type-slug.php but I’m still getting a 404 ERROR.
Screenshots of my settings

I’m not sure what I’m missing and would greatly appreciate some help getting this sorted.
Thank you!

Hi Michael
I found an unresolved support thread regarding the same issue on the Custom Post Type Permalinks support forum.
After more research, I did find a solution that worked for me at Get your custom taxonomy URLs in order.
I also posted a support thread on Custom Post Type Permalinks asking if they found a solution to the issue or would consider incorporating the one I found into their plugin.
Since this seems like an issue that others are experienceing I thought this info might come in handy for you and/or others.
Thank you for your time and attentive responses.
Cheers!

One more thing, in order to get the pretty permalinks to present in Yoast breadcrumbs and as the “view” link under Post Type > Categories > category I had to implement the function outlined in Remove taxonomy slugs (categories, post tags and custom taxonomies) from URL
