Add region/city to slug

It would be added to this snippet https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-changing-the-job-slugpermalink/#section-4 You’d need to add a %region% permalink and query region terms.

The bottom part of the snippet would change to:

$args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'job/%region%/%category%';

Hi. Looking to solve the same issue. Could you specify how to query the terms for regions. I’ve tried adding job_listing_regions but so far unable to make it work.

job_listing_region is the taxonomy – its not plural

Yeah. Sorry. Typo.
Do I copy the entire from “$terms = get_the_terms…” and place it before the last function?

If you don’t need category too, just replace all job_listing_category with job_listing_region in the snippet.

Im looking for https://mysite.com/region/category/listing
Alright. added this

function job_listing_post_type_link( $permalink, $post ) {
    // Abort if post is not a job
    if ( $post->post_type !== 'job_listing' )
    	return $permalink;

    // Abort early if the placeholder rewrite tag isn't in the generated URL
    if ( false === strpos( $permalink, '%' ) )
    	return $permalink;

    // Get the custom taxonomy terms in use by this post
	$terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'job_listing_category' );
	$terms_region = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'job_listing_region' );

	if ( empty( $terms ) ) {
		// If no terms are assigned to this post, use a string instead (can't leave the placeholder there)
		$job_listing_category = _x( 'uncat', 'slug' );
	} else {
		// Replace the placeholder rewrite tag with the first term's slug
		$first_term = array_shift( $terms );
		$job_listing_category = $first_term->slug;
	}

	if ( empty( $terms_region ) ) {
		// If no terms are assigned to this post, use a string instead (can't leave the placeholder there)
		$job_listing_region = _x( 'uncat', 'slug' );
	} else {
		// Replace the placeholder rewrite tag with the first term's slug
		$first_term = array_shift( $terms_region );
		$job_listing_region = $first_term->slug;
	}

    $find = array(
    	'%region%',
    	'%category%'
    );

    $replace = array(
    	$job_listing_region,
    	$job_listing_category
    );

    $replace = array_map( 'sanitize_title', $replace );

    $permalink = str_replace( $find, $replace, $permalink );

    return $permalink;
}
add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'job_listing_post_type_link', 10, 2 );

it generates the url but it returns a 404

After doing this, go to settings >permalinks and save.

still not working. what the hell am I missing here….

Have you tried just using region and not category as well? That may be confusing WP.

Actually its not working with region in the slug at all. I’ve tried – just to test – to replace the code with category to region: so that the url reads …mysite.com/region/listing but that also returns a 404 even though the same code with category does in fact work.

And to double double check, you are saving permalinks after changing the code? Thats v important ??

I’m having exactly the same issue, used the above snippet in my functions.php, the url is created as it should but the page isn’t found! estuarydirect.tv

works fine:

function change_job_listing_slug( $args ) {
  $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'listing/%category%';
  return $args;
}
add_filter( 'register_post_type_job_listing', 'change_job_listing_slug' );

doesn’t work:

function change_job_listing_slug( $args ) {
  $args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'listing/%category%/%region%';
  return $args;
}
add_filter( 'register_post_type_job_listing', 'change_job_listing_slug' );

anyone got any ideas what we’re doing wrong? and to clarify, definitely saving permalink structure after modifying file.

Thanks

@robinhind I’ve not been able to do it either. I think there is something in WP core preventing it working. %category% works, but no other custom names.

I have experienced the exact same problems as fancony.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
