Welcome to Archive Pages Pro

Welcome to Archive Pages Pro

Archives Pages Pro allows you to customize your archives by mapping them to pages. It provides the ability to map post-type archives, term archives, author archives, and 404 pages. Additional features include post-type overrides and the ability to add custom fields to the REST API.

Here are the major features:

Map a Post Type to a Page

Map a Post Type Archive to a Page

Create a page, layout it exactly how you like it, and then map it to a post-type archive.

Just head to Settings > Reading to set the post type archive page.

Map a 404 Page to a Page

Map a 404 Page to a Page

Don't settle for a boring 404 page. Create a page, layout how you like it, and then map the page to a 404 page.

Just head to Settings > Reading to set the 404 page.

Map a Term Archive to a Page

Map a Term Archive to a PAge

You can map term archives to a page. Just visit the term in the admin and you're able to map its archive to a page.

This provides you better control over what goes on your term archives.

Map an Author Archive to a Page and Change the Author Slug

Map an Author Archive to a Page

You're able to create a page layout how the author page will look, and then map the author archive to that page.

You're also able to change the author slug in the same section.

With custom author archives, you can give your authors a nice design and even allow them to edit their own archive pages.

Disable Archive Mapping

Disable Archive Mapping Options

In the admin settings, you'll find that you can disable the mapping features you are not using.

You can disable archive mapping for:

• Post type archives

• Term archives

• 404 archives

Change the Author Base and Disable Mapping of Authors

Disable Author Mapping and Change the Author Base

You can change the author base in this admin section so your author archives have a custom endpoint.

You are also able to disable author mapping in this section.

Add Custom Fields to the REST API

Custom Field Support in Archive Pages Pro

Some plugins that interact with custom fields require that the custom fields be available with WordPress's REST API.

This admin tool lets you make those custom fields appear in REST dropdowns or searches.

Add the custom field key, set a post type, and give it a variable type. This field will then be registered in REST, which you can access from your custom tool.
