We can’t figure out why the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th level category (we didn’t check 5th, 6th) not showing 404 and only first level:
An example:
Shown: https://parentsontheyard.com/parenting/
404: https://parentsontheyard.com/parenting/family/
404 https://parentsontheyard.com/parenting/dynamics/gay-parents/

any advice? Do we need to add a template? or setting?

Hello,

For https://parentsontheyard.com/parenting/family/ works fine, did you make some changes? => https://i.imgur.com/cepvQaF.png
Also, for https://parentsontheyard.com/parenting/dynamics/gay-parents/ please make sure the gay-parents is set in the parent category dynamics => https://i.imgur.com/hfvLSCr.png
Also, please make sure you don’t have a plugin conflict.

Thank you!

After many tests, we found the main reason why its happened.
It is related to permalink setup. If you don’t want to show Category base in WordPress, replace it with “.” that works fantastic on the first level but 2nd,3rd, or 4th level with the theme and mega menu not working.

As soon as we remove the “.” we manage to fix most of our problems, but it creates a different situation.

we still want the site to map:
/parenting/
/level1
/level1/level-1
/level1/level-1/ /level1/level-1-1-2

One solution is to create a CPT:
Following the documents on:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/custom-post-type-support/
1. Test plugin can’t be downloaded.
2. How do you set up a mega menu for CPT / taxonomy?

Please advise what the best approach to solving this issue using a newsletter theme is.
