Taxonomy Url with Custom post type prefix re-write rule

by

I have a taxonomy called Section and a Custom post type called Developments.

What i need to achieve is a permalink on the taxonomy with custom post type prefixed: e.g:

  1. custom post type: development <- More than one custom post type so needs to be dynamic
  2. taxonomy: section
  3. term: casting

http://site.com/development/section/casting

What i have at the moment:

  1. taxonomy: section
  2. term: casting

http://site.com/section/casting

Permalink Structure:
Post name

PS* Any help will be much appreciated:

// Register Section taxonomy for Development, Pre-Production, Shooting & Post-Production

Try changing the $args you are passing into the register_taxonomy method so that rewrite -> slug includes the development tag

$args = array(
        'labels' => $labels,
        'public' => true,
        'show_in_nav_menus' => false,
        'show_ui' => true,
        'hierarchical' => true,
        'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'excerpt', 'thumbnail'),
        'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'development/section', 'with_front' => true, 'hierarchical' => true),
        'query_var' => true
    );
