Wordpress Custom Post Type - Archive and Landing Page Variations

gistfile1.php

/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *
 * Custom post type and taxonomy with archives. (Preferable URLS)
 * ------------------------------------------------------------------------ */

/**
 * No landing page added to admin.
 * Use archive template hierarchy to create a landing page if requried.
 * No custom wp_query is requried for pagination, it just works.
 * Obviously need to add post_type_link filter for the URLS to include the taxonomy.
 * As there is no landing page harder to add to a menu. https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-archive-links/
 * The posttype-slug in the URL is the first part of $rewrite slug.
 * Thanks to http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/22490
 *
 * URLS
 *
 * /posttype-slug /records
 * archive-$posttype.php, $archive.php and so on)
