Is it possible to create a directory on a news website that is already utilizing the Newspaper theme’s demo site? Let’s use Chain News as an example. We have imported its demo and have also created several custom post types (CPT) using CPT UI.
We are currently attempting to establish a directory using one of the newly created post types called “Tools.”
However, when we attempt to filter the flex blocks using content published under the “Tools” category, it doesn’t seem to work. It appears that only content published under WordPress’s default post type is being filtered. Hence it’s not serving our purpose.
As a workaround, I installed the App Find Pro plugin. But when I add content, the URL structure appears to be like this: https://site.com/tdcpt_app_listing/tool-name/, and it redirects to the homepage.
Have I overlooked something in this process?
Hi aashishlowanshi,
Yes, you can utilized the directory with all pro demos, as long as those can be edited using tagDiv Composer the directory can be used – https://forum.tagdiv.com/introduction-cpt-acf-newspaper-theme/
The problem that you faced I think that it was related to the type that needed to be filtered in the flex block, by default the theme blocks are filtering the posts, but you can set the type you need, for example, posts, pages, books ….
Also, you can import from cloud the template, blocks, modules you need. If you want we can take a look together to this situation.
Using the App Find Pro plugin will need to do change to the plugin to change the url and other structures, in my opinion it will be better to use the CPT Ui to can make the cpt and taxonomies like you need.
Thank you!
