I guess I was misled in to using custom post types to begin with, but I’m still okay with this because I don’t need it to do the things listed in Otto’s explanation:
– show up in “the blog” – No
– show up in the normal feeds – No
– fit with the normal permalink structure – No
I just want the links to work, in any structure. When I query the posts, I want to be able to link to them. Either using the_permalink() or something else. Any ideas on how I might do that? Is there a way to reference the slug-ready title of the post?
Being able to do base_url + “/?event=” + post_title_slug would be fine with me.
I don’t need it to use my custom permalink structure, I just want to be able to point to the post without a 404.
Thanks.
