Can you be more specific?do you mean custom post type
or custom query
?
AFAIK when using custom post type you cannot directly use category_name
since your post are treated in different way. You have to add custom taxonomies in register_post_type and then register them with register_taxonomy()
note: please correct me if my statement above is wrong, I’m not go deep with custom post type, at least for now.
say you have custom post type named portfolio
, custom taxonomy named toolkit
with following categories:
- preparation
- assessment
- leadership
- innovation
and you want to show all post in preparation
:
beware lurker, this code is severely outdated
<?php
query_posts( array( 'post_type' => 'portfolio', 'toolkit' => 'preparation' ) );
//the loop start here
if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
?>
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
