The Problem
You are attempting to use WordPress taxonomies to create custom permalinks, and all you get are 404 errors.
To clarify, I was trying to use the taxonomies purely to maniplate custom page types and their permalinks, to create something like http://Domain.com/SummerCrops/Tomatos where SummerCrops is my custom taxonomy, and Tomatos is a page name
The Cause
WordPress is finicky about permalink syntax, specifically the difference between /%PostName%/ and /%PageName%/ – so for example a custom permalink structure of /%content%/%postname%/ would not work ,whereas /%content%/%pagename%/ will. Practically all online documentation refers to posts, not pages.
The Solution
Just use the custom permalink of /%content%/%pagename%/ and everything will be perfect.
