Hi,
first I’m curious why would you want to do that? to avoid an XY issue 😉
What is the XY Problem and how do you know you’re doing it? http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/66377/what-is-the-xy-problem
Also be sure to understand WordPress Hiearchy of Theme Files: https://wphierarchy.com
Hi @quasel,
using categories not only on posts but as well on other post types like pages or custom post types makes it possible to find all relevant content, which is in the category. What´s wrong with that?
As I wrote, I´m using an old (not further supported) plugin for this and I simply want to use an actual one.
And I don´t understand, what this problem / question has to do with WP hierarchy of theme files??
Hi @bhenselmann
Since categories are basically archive pages, I think @quasel meant that we don’t understand why you need to redirect these URL’s to a page.
But it could be that we misunderstand the function of the plugin you’ve mentioned.
You can assign taxonomies to multiple CPT’s, sure! This can be done in the advanced options.
However, there are limitations to the WordPress core CPT’s and taxonomies like posts, pages and categories. Pods will only extend these so you do not have the extra options available.
For this you’ll need to do some coding (copying):

Thanks a lot! That will help me! So I have not to use the pods plugin for this!
