How do I create a CPT archive page that lists all my CPTS like archive.php does for my categories?
My CPT is called “profile” and so I copied the archive.php file into my child theme and renamed it archive-profile.php but it ain’t doin’ nutin’.WP says this…
archive-{post_type}.php
If your custom post type were ‘product’, and/or query_var = “product”, WordPress would look for archive-product.php to display the archive of posts.But when I go to mydomain.com/profile it doesn’t list them like mydomain.com/category lists my normal posts. Instead I get a 404.
I’m guessing I’m missing something important!
I think I have to add this piece of code… but i’m not sure where or how?
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'profile', 'posts_per_page' => 10 ); $loop = new WP_Query( $args ); while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); the_title(); echo '<div class="entry-content">'; the_content(); echo '</div>'; endwhile;All I want to do is have a separate archive.php and single.php for my custom post type so I can customise different from the normal posts.

Naming it like that should work (
archive-{post_type}.php).If going to the page is giving you a 404, rebuild your permalinks by going to “Settings > Permalinks” and clicking the save button.
