fixed, was a stupid error, called the taxonomy work instead of work_type. Works a treat now

add_action( 'init', 'cptui_register_my_cpts' );
function cptui_register_my_cpts() {
	$labels = array(
		"name" => "Case Studies",
		"singular_name" => "Case Study",
		);

	$args = array(
		"labels" => $labels,
		"description" => "",
		"public" => true,
		"show_ui" => true,
		"has_archive" => true,
		"show_in_menu" => true,
		"exclude_from_search" => false,
		"capability_type" => "post",
		"hierarchical" => false,
		"rewrite" => array( "slug" => "%work_type%/case_studies", "with_front" => false ),
		"query_var" => true,
		"supports" => array( "title", "thumbnail", "page-attributes" ),
		"taxonomies" => array( "work_type" )
	);
	register_post_type( "case_studies", $args );

// End of cptui_register_my_cpts()
}

add_action( 'init', 'cptui_register_my_taxes' );
function cptui_register_my_taxes() {

	$labels = array(

		"label" => "Work Type",
		);

	$args = array(
		"labels" => $labels,
		"hierarchical" => true,
		"label" => "Work Type",
		"show_ui" => true,
		"query_var" => true,
		"rewrite" => array( 'slug' => 'work_type'),
		"show_admin_column" => true,
	);
	register_taxonomy( "work_type", array( "testimonial", "case_studies" ), $args );

	unset($labels);
	unset($args);

// End cptui_register_my_taxes
}

add_filter('post_type_link', 'work_types_permalink_structure', 10, 4);
function work_types_permalink_structure($post_link, $post, $leavename, $sample) {
    if (false !== strpos($post_link, '%work_type%')) {
        $work_types_type_term = get_the_terms($post->ID, 'work_type');
        if (!empty($work_types_type_term))
            $post_link = str_replace('%work_type%', array_pop($work_types_type_term)->

hi still struggling on this, anybody got any ideas? Think i need to flush the permalinks, but i’m not sure how to get that working

Hi i have managed to get the permalink looking correct now. But when i click it it doesnt show the post. Does anyone have any advice?

Here is the code so far:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘cptui_register_my_cpts’ );
function cptui_register_my_cpts() {

post type
$labels = array(
“name” => “Case Studies”,
“singular_name” => “Case Study”,
);

$args = array(
“labels” => $labels,
“description” => “”,
“public” => true,
“show_ui” => true,
“has_archive” => false,
“show_in_menu” => true,
“exclude_from_search” => false,
“capability_type” => “page”,
“map_meta_cap” => true,
“hierarchical” => false,
“rewrite” => array( “slug” => “%work_type%/case-studies”, “with_front” => true ),
“query_var” => true,

“supports” => array( “title”, “thumbnail”, “page-attributes”, “post-formats” ),
“taxonomies” => array( “work” )
);
register_post_type( “case_studies”, $args );

// End of cptui_register_my_cpts()
}

taxonomy

add_action( ‘init’, ‘cptui_register_my_taxes’ );
function cptui_register_my_taxes() {

$labels = array(
“name” => “Work Type”,
“label” => “Work Type”,
);

$args = array(
“labels” => $labels,
“hierarchical” => false,
“label” => “Work Type”,
“show_ui” => true,
“query_var” => true,
“rewrite” => array( ‘slug’ => ‘%work_type%’, ‘with_front’ => false ),
“show_admin_column” => false,
);
register_taxonomy( “work”, array( “testimonial”, “case_studies” ), $args );

// End cptui_register_my_taxes
}

function to change permalink structure

add_filter(‘post_type_link’, ‘work_permalink_structure’, 10, 4);
function work_permalink_structure($post_link, $post, $leavename, $sample)
{
if ( false !== strpos( $post_link, ‘%work_type%’ ) ) {
$work_type_term = get_the_terms( $post->ID, ‘work’ );
$post_link = str_replace( ‘%work_type%’, array_pop( $work_type_term )->slug, $post_link );
}
return $post_link;
}
