I’m suspect it has something to do with the way my post type and custom taxonomy are set up. Here is a solution I came up with. I’m open to suggestions. function custom_template_redirect() { … Read more
Assign your custom queries to something other than $wp_query, that’s the variable that holds the default query for the page and you’re overwriting it with the image slider query.
Turns out that the function above actually works fine. The issue is that the plugin (Simple Terms Meta) doesn’t create tables for each site, only the main site.

While multisite would give you exactly what you wanted via domain mapping, you’ve opted to throw away this option in favour of the much more time consuming and harder method of manual htaccess rewrites etc. The challenges you face include: Telling wordpress to rewrite the permalink URLs it outputs to shop.mysite.com but not for the … Read more
If you need to display the flags of the countries in the post then the best option would be to use custom fields with your own function that will know to translate the value of the custom field in to the right country’s image. You can also create a custom taxonomy for that with a … Read more
This code runs a foreach loop through each value associated with the language taxonomy then runs a query on that value to get the posts associated with it. $taxonomies = get_categories( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘language’ ) ); foreach ( $taxonomies as $tax ) { global $post; $args = array( ‘language’ => $tax->category_nicename, ‘posts_per_page’ => 10 … Read more
