Thank you for your quick reply. I tried what you suggested and it worked. I then narrowed it down and found that the problem in the child theme was with some of the code I added in the functions.php to add the SKU at the end of the URL. It worked but caused the issue with editing HTML blocks with Elementor. The code is below. Do you have any suggestions on why it would conflict or is there a way to exclude the HTML Block post type from it?
/**
* WooCommerce – adds SKU in product URL from wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3507/custom-field-values-in-permalink/3517#3517
*/
function lbb_custom_meta_permalink( $link, $post ){
$post_meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ”, true );
if( empty( $post_meta ) || !is_string( $post_meta ) )
$post_meta = ”;
$link = str_replace( ‘!!custom_field_placeholder!!’, $post_meta, $link );
return $link;
}
add_filter( ‘post_link’, ‘lbb_custom_meta_permalink’, 10, 2 );
function append_sku_string( $link, $post ) {
$post_meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_sku’, true );
if ( ‘product’ == get_post_type( $post ) ) {
$link = $link . ‘#’ .$post_meta;
return $link;
}
}
add_filter( ‘post_type_link’, ‘append_sku_string’, 1, 2 );
.
