I tried this again on a new db but got the same result. Then I found out why this wasn’t working – the setting 'with_front' => true should be 'with_front' => false giving the following:

'rewrite' => array(
	'slug' => 'case-studies',
	'with_front' => false

And it is imperative to refresh permalinks!
Sounds pretty logical now…

Thanks for your help. I redid the steps just like you did above but I still get the same result – /blog/case-studies. Checked in another browser but still the same. No idea. I may just try a new db and see what happens – the current one has seen a lot of experimentation and may be the cause of this not working.

No problem.

I had refreshed the permalinks already but no dice. Also removed the htaccess file so it would generate a new one, but still no change.

Maybe I should remove the /blog from the permalinks to get the case-studies to show in the root and then do another rewrite specifically for the blog posts to show in /blog?

Thank you, wish me luck! ??

Yes

Sorry, I’m not a developer, just doing my best by trying to understand it all.

I am registering the CPT in my own code because the use of plugins wasn’t getting me where I wanted.

This is the full contents of my funcions.php in my child theme where I declare the CPT and its categories. Maybe you can spot what is wrong with this because the url for case-studies still has /blog in front of it. Thanks for any help!

/*END Custom categories for Case Studies start*/

Thanks FullWorks! Would this best be placed in the functions.php of my child theme? And will it overwrite the blog slug?

Great idea! I have the same request.

Wat ik heb gedaan is de afbeelding die je als Uitgelichte afbeelding gebruikt NIET opnemen in de gallerij. Daardoor is deze maar een keer te zien: https://www.autokopenopcuracao.com/occasions/

Of is dit niet wat je bedoelt? Heb je een voorbeeld URL?

groeten
Arnaud.

Thanks for the info, good to know some background information concerning this issue.

Great! I validated my page and everything looks good.

When I google for the site, the stars still do not appear in the search results. @gowebsol, you state that the rest is up to them, but there must be something I can do to get the stars to appear?
