I Would Like To Modify The Listings Permalinks
First off....AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL THEME.
I see the settings to modify the listings permalinks, however, I am stumped by this one. I need to modify the permalink structure on listings to include the category which it is in.
For example:
A roofer in miami would look like this:
mydomain.com/listing/roofer/miami/mikes-roofing
I'm trying to figure out what the 'listing category' is actually called in the theme and the taxonomy/custom field name is for the city designations.
I'm assuming that I would do something like this:
mydomain.com/listing/%listing_category%/%va_city%/%postname%/
Unfortunately, that doesn't work. I looked in the functions.php of my parent theme to find what the 'listing category' is actually labeled as and it was 'listing_category'. I have no idea what it is, as that didn't trigger properly.
I also noticed that adding /%postname%/ triggers the call of the post name in the url twice, which leads me to believe that the permalinks are hardcoded to auto-generate a portion of themselves automatically i.e. the postname portion of the permalink.
So, of course, I tried this as well:
mydomain.com/listing/%listing_category%/%va_city%
It didn't work either...obviously. I'm sure this is an easy one for the theme devs, so I'm hoping for a good solid solution.
All in all, for
SEO, this is a huge must and I really need help with this. I have not yet found any threads that give a solution to this, and so I'm hoping with by explaining it with as much detail as I have, someone who has the answers will understand what I'm looking for and be able to deliver a solution.
Thanks in advance for your help, I appreciate your time.
