The problem with your approach is that woocommerces product category is a custom taxonomy called product_cat. But with cat you are addressing the built-in category. Taxonomies can be addressed with a tax query, simplified example below: function wpse188669_pre_get_posts( $query ) { if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && $query->is_search() ) { $query->set( ‘post_type’, array( ‘product’ … Read more
The callback you need for non-hierarchical taxonomies is post_tags_meta_box. The callback you need for hierarchical taxonomies is post_categories_meta_box. For your example, the code would be: /* Remove movies metabox from sidepanel */ function hide_metabox(){ remove_meta_box( ‘tagsdiv-movies’, ‘your-post-type’ , ‘side’ ); } add_action( ‘admin_menu’ , ‘hide_metabox’ ); /* Add back movies metabox, but in post area … Read more
Background & Core Functionality Why a Taxonomy Path Slug Alone Produces a 404 However this slug doesnt work. mysite.com/wiki/help-topics throws a 404. WordPress does not provide a mechanism for “an archive of taxonomy terms” out of the box – that is, neither the template hierarchy nor the WP_Query/WP_Tax_Query logic support a direct display of terms … Read more
Use: $tax = $wp_query->get_queried_object(); printf( __( ‘Posts classified under: %s’, ‘textdomain’ ), ‘<span>’ . $tax->name . ‘</span>’ );
The latest edition should always be the term in that taxonomy with the highest term_id, right? Query get_terms and find the latest edition, then use that term to build the rest of your query… $edition = get_terms(‘edition’,’orderby=none&order=DESC&number=1′); $latest_edition = $edition[0]->slug; Then you can either modify the current query, if that’s what you want to do: … Read more
Post format for the post is term of native post_format taxonomy. It can be set for the post by set_post_format() function. As with any taxonomy you can also use some deeper level function, but really there is no need. And I definitely don’t recommend to try and deal with terms and taxonomies directly in database … Read more
The 0 = 1 happens when the terms don’t exist. You’re creating a query for some set of terms. Before it can add the SQL to that main query, it first does a secondary query to get the term_id’s for the relevant terms. If none are found, then it returns 0 = 1 instead, to … Read more
After reading your revised question it was easier to comprehend what you are trying to do. My new solution looks like the thing you wanted to do in the first place: it just excludes all posts which are of your custom type but don’t have the “yes”-term associated with it: $custom_query = array(); $custom_query[‘post_type’] = … Read more
I suggest creating 3 files 1) regiontemplate-country.php 2) regiontemplate-city.php These 2 will contain the templates for country & city, then 3) taxonomy-region.php In this file, add the code to load the appropriate template <?php $term = get_term_by(‘slug’, get_query_var(‘term’), ‘region’); if((int)$term->parent) get_template_part(‘regiontemplate’, ‘city’); else get_template_part(‘regiontemplate’, ‘country’);
EDIT From your comments, I have reworked the entire solution. I’m keeping the original answer just for reference If I have 3 sticky posts, shouldn’t they be the first 3 posts on the first page, regardless of their post date? What’s happening is that only the sticky posts that happen to be in that first … Read more
