It is a bit of a hack on the back-end but it renders fine on the front end. Add my vote to the feature request!
The only unexpected byproduct of switching to category pages is that my URLs are not falling in line. I'm not sure if I should ask this question in this ticket or start a new one as it is a different (yet related issue) - I will ask here for expediency - just let me know if you want me to move it to a new ticket.
URL Issue
Just as a refresher here is my structure in Toolset:
Post Type = Brides
Taxonomy = Location
My locations have 2 levels (Region ie, Asian, Latin, African, Euro) and Country (ie, Colombia, Cuba etc)
My hierarchey is like this: Brides - Region - Country - Entry Title
I am using Yoast Breadcrumbs - which is creating the correct hierarchy as you can see on an entry page like this one: hidden link
I am happy with the url structure for the entry pages as shown above - the problem is with the Region and Country pages which appear like this: hidden link hidden link
Is there any way to get rid of "locations" in the url so they would render as: hidden link hidden link
I know there are plugins for wordpress that will rewrite urls on an individual basis - but I am trying to stay away from too many hacks on my site.
I could probably live with: hidden link hidden link
I tried adding "brides" as a rewrite base in the location taxonomy settings but it just threw up 404 errors - I assume because it was conflicting with the brides post type.
WordPress doesn't support removing the taxonomy slug, and so is not an option with Toolset.
A slug is required to avoid ambiguity when determining what to display at a given URL (e.g. a post or a taxonomy archive).
The WordPress way, supported by Toolset, allows you to use an alternative string than the taxonomy slug which you can specify when editing the taxonomy settings in the options panel.
In your example you changed location to brides, but brides is already used as the slug of the custom post type. You could try an alternate string (e.g. "ladies"), or...
