Auto-Generated Pages
Last updated: October 5, 2018
Every FareHarbor Site has a set of auto-generated pages. This doc reviews all the auto-generated pages and how to edit and override them.
All Activities Page
When you create a site, our template automatically generates an all activities page with the slug /activities/. By default, this page becomes the parent page of any activity page you publish.
- For example, if I publish an activity page with the slug /denver-beer-tour/, it will automatically become /activities/denver-beer-tour/.
How to remove the /activities/ page
- To override this feature, navigate to Settings > Activity Settings > Display in the WordPress dashboard (/edit/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=activity-settings).
- In that section of the dashboard, you’ll see an Activities Slug field. Change this slug to “/,” which will get rid of /activities/ as a page as well as remove it from your permalink structure.
- After you make this update, be sure to navigate to Settings > Permalinks (/edit/wp-admin/options-permalink.php) and Save Changes at the bottom.
- Additionally you may need to clear your sites cache
How to make a custom /activities/ page
- If you would like to set up a custom /activities/ page, you can create a single page with the same URL as the page you want to replace.
- You can then nest specific or all items under this page
Activity Taxonomy & Term Pages
When using taxonomies, the template automatically creates pages for taxonomies and their terms. You can customize the layout on Taxonomy/Term Pages.
This functions similarly to custom layouts on activities. If you do nothing it will look like an auto generated page. Do NOT leave it as is.
- You can access the custom layouts by navigating to Settings > Activity Settings > Taxonomies and scroll down to custom layout. This functions as all other block editing within the template.
- You need to also fill out the SEO content for this taxonomy if you use taxonomies
The only exception to this is if you are using the categories as a URL nesting mechanism and the taxonomies become duplicate. Then you need to non-index them and not use the pre generated pages. This is because an activity can belong to several taxonomies and we don’t want it to nest under several URLs and therefore become duplicate.
Privacy Policy and Terms of Service
The privacy policy and terms of service pages were written by FareHarbor lawyers to cover most situations a FareHarbor client could have come up. If the client would like to customize these pages, you can do so by creating a single page with the same slug as the page you need to customize.
