I can query and display all custom post types, but when trying to query them based on taxonomy as well it will not work. Somebody please help!
Taxonomy function
add_action( 'init', 'create_project_type_taxonomies', 0 );
function create_project_type_taxonomies() {
// Add new taxonomy, make it hierarchical (like categories)
$labels = array(
'name' => _x( 'Project Types', 'taxonomy general name' ),
'singular_name' => _x( 'Project Type', 'taxonomy singular name' ),
'search_items' => __( 'Search Project Types' ),
'all_items' => __( 'All Project Types' ),
'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Project Type' ),
'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Project Type:' ),
'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Project Type' ),
'update_item' => __( 'Update Project Type' ),
'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Project Type' ),
'new_item_name' => __( 'New Project Type' ),
'menu_name' => __( 'Project Type' ),
);
$args = array(
'hierarchical' => true,
'labels' => $labels,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_admin_column' => true,
'query_var' => true,
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'project_type' ),
);
register_taxonomy( 'project_type', array( 'project' ), $args );
}
Query - which works without the taxonomy line
<?php
$projects = new WP_Query(
array(
'post_type' => 'project',
'project_type' => 'music_videos',
)
);
?>
<?php if($projects->have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while($projects->have_posts()) : $projects->the_post(); ?>
<!--some query stuff which works-->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
You have to use tax_query parameter, like described here
Hope it helps :)
