Custom Portfolio page as parent page – child pages create 404 error

[mcsinn]

Hi,

I created a custom page (slug “beispiele-referenzen”) for the portfolio and changed the settings in KLEO theme settings to use this one as the base page for portfolio. After that, i created another page which should be a child page (slug “feste-events”) of the portfolio site. But when I set the “beispiele-referenzen” as the parent of “feste-events” in the page attributes, I always get a 404 error.

What can I do to avoid the 404 error here?

Thanks,
Michael

Did you also resave your permalinks? Theme Options > Settings > Permalinks > click save.

Yes I did that more than once! Did not help in any way.

Do you want to take a look at it yourself?

Sure.

Sorry, I thought you were saying that your portfolios were throwing 404 errors. Anyhow, that’s an expected response. Anything within your custom slug for the portfolio must be a portfolio post type.

What’s your need for having a child page? Just trying to understand.

Okay, thanks for taking care.

Well, I would like to create a submenu for subpages, that only show the content of one portfolio category. Therefore I thought of creating a page for each of them.

Is there another way of doing this with portfolio post types?

[sharmstr]

You can do that. Just dont make them children of the main portfolio page.

Thanks, but I already knew, that I can make pages that work, when I do not make them child pages.

But what would be the way if I did it with portfolio post types? Which links would I have to use then?
I tried to use the slug of the portfolio categories, but they do not work.

sorry for the late intervention. I see the child pages now work. Did you manage to come with a workaround?

Hi Abe,

unfortunately they do not work as expected, as I can not make the pages child pages of the Portfolio main page. But the dirty workaround is to set up pages without making them childpages. So, in the breadcrumbs section those pages are just normal pages but not seen as “portfolio” pages.

Regards,
Michael
