Hello this is my first time with ACF and archives. I try to create a portfolio. First I create a custom post type in “functions.php” (this works). Then I create an archive page “archive-portfolio.php” but i don’t know how check if this works. I try to acces to direction.com/portfolio.php but a 404 error apears.
This is my custom type in functions.php
function create_posttype() {
register_post_type( 'portfolio',
// CPT Options
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __( 'Portfolio' ),
'singular_name' => __( 'Portfolio' )
),
'public' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'portfolio'),
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'create_posttype' );
function custom_post_type() {
// Set UI labels for Custom Post Type
$labels = array(
'name' => _x( 'Portfolio', 'Post Type General Name', 'calduchstudio' ),
'singular_name' => _x( 'Portfolio', 'Post Type Singular Name', 'calduchstudio' ),
'menu_name' => __( 'Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'all_items' => __( 'All Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'view_item' => __( 'View Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'add_new' => __( 'Add New', 'calduchstudio' ),
'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'update_item' => __( 'Update Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'search_items' => __( 'Search Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'not_found' => __( 'Not Found', 'calduchstudio' ),
'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'Not found in Trash', 'calduchstudio' ),
);
// Set other options for Custom Post Type
$args = array(
'label' => __( 'Portfolio', 'calduchstudio' ),
'description' => __( 'Portfolio news and reviews', 'calduchstudio' ),
'labels' => $labels,
// Features this CPT supports in Post Editor
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'revisions', ),
// You can associate this CPT with a taxonomy or custom taxonomy.
'taxonomies' => array( 'genres' ),
/* A hierarchical CPT is like Pages and can have
* Parent and child items. A non-hierarchical CPT
* is like Posts.
*/
'hierarchical' => false,
'public' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_in_menu' => true,
'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
'show_in_admin_bar' => true,
'menu_position' => 5,
'can_export' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'exclude_from_search' => false,
'publicly_queryable' => true,
'capability_type' => 'page',
);
// Registering your Custom Post Type
register_post_type( 'Portfolio', $args );
}
/* Hook into the 'init' action so that the function
* Containing our post type registration is not
* unnecessarily executed.
*/
add_action( 'init', 'custom_post_type', 0 );

//* Template Name: Portfolio
//* The template for displaying the portfolio of our website.
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<main>
<?php
while (have_posts() : the_posts()):
get_template_part("template-parts/content","page");
$args = array( 'post_type' =>portfolio', );
$query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $query->have_posts()) : while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();
?>
<div class="portfolio-item">
<div class="portfolio-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail();>
</div>
<h2>
<a href ="<?php echo( get_post_meta ( get_the_ID(), 'live_url', true))?>" ><?php the_title(); ?></a>

<h3>Date: <?php the_field('date'); ?> || Published At: <?php the_field('publication'); ?> </h3>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?else: ?> <?endif; ?>
</main>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

The URL for the archive page should be direction.com/Portfolio/
it may be with a lower case p
, but you used an upper case letter as the post type so I’m not sure it that matters.
Thanks for your help John.
I put the post type with the p
in lowercase. Then I write the url “direction.com/portfolio/” and the 404 error is there again.
Does an admin menu appear for your post type?
Visit the page Settings => Permalinks, this will reset the rewrite rules on the site and may fix the problem.
