I am trying to: Create 'Single' page templates for my different post types. I believe the main issue is the custom permalinks base "/cannabis-black-book/". Archive pages are working properly however once you click on a post, the single page does not display. I will upload screenshots of settings using as an example my 'businesses' custom post types.

The current settings on the attached word document allow the archive pages to display properly, however single pages are not displaying... for example you can view:

hidden link (Businesses Archive Page - Displaying properly)
hidden link (Business Single Page - Not Displaying)

FYI: Both Archive and Single page templates are created with Elementor

Sorry to be impatient, but I really need some assistance with this. This item is holding up a ton of activity that needs to be completed. Thank you for your attention.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - what if you set your permalink back to /%postname%/ and save the permalink settings and then edit your post type and under rewrite section select "User custom URL format" and add your custom url format "/cannabis-black-book/ there and save the settings.

Does that help?

When I set it up that way which makes perfect sense to me it ends up breaking the archive page as well as the single page.

What if you try to set custom archive slug under section has archive? (at the textbox just below has archive section)?

Attempted entering in the custom archive slug box:
- /cannabis-black-book/
- /cannabis-black-book/businesses/
- /businesses/

No Archive Page, No Single Page.

Also Attempted all three changing the "rewrite" to use wordpress URL logic.... No Archive Page, No Single Page.

There is only one way (so far) that I have found the site will display both the archive and the single page and its without the wanted slug "cannabis-black-book". I've set it up that way now for you to see... screenshots attached and you can visit:
hidden link (Businesses Archive Page - Displaying properly)
hidden link (Business Single Page - Displaying properly)

Something is wrong deeper in I believe. We are not receiving expected results with proper setups.

Sorry had an extra 'slash' in those addresses:
hidden link (Businesses Archive Page - Displaying properly)
hidden link (Business Single Page - Displaying properly)

Could you please share access details so I can check whats going wrong there.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

Well - I checked with minimum installation (only Toolset plugins installed) and I applied the slug businesses/cannabis-black-book to rewirte section and has_archive section and it just works fine so the issue looks link specific to your install.

Any customizations with URL using place-holders, you need to add rewrite rules and that needs custom programming. Either you should check by deactivating all your plugins and check with minimum install or following are a few links, which may help you achieve this, please have a look:
