Yes, there is such way. To be precise, there are many ways to accomplish that. You can add ‘Category’ page. Make sure that its slug is set to ‘category’. If you go to example.com/category/ then this page will be shown. If there were no custom changes to rewrite rules, then WordPress will first try to … Read more
Rather than trying to force an implementation as you’ve described it, doesn’t it make more sense to change the WP_Query on the front page, to only show one post, regardless of how many posts are in the given taxonomy term?
Presumably you want to output term data, so you can use get_terms with the child_of argument, then iterate over returned terms and check that the parent of each term is your main term id: $parent_id = 42; $children = get_terms( ‘product_category’, array( ‘child_of’ => $parent_id ) ); foreach( $children as $child ) { if( $parent_id … Read more
Better to use get_posts. This is how you can use “rand” <?php $args = array( ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ ); $rand_posts = get_posts( $args ); foreach ( $rand_posts as $post ) : setup_postdata( $post ); ?> <!– Do the things here… –> <?php endforeach; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
You can use get_ancestors for this: get_ancestors( $term_id, ‘taxonomy’ ); Of course this will only work on hierarchical elements. Additionally, this will only work reasonably well if only one term per level is assigned, take a look at my comment here and my answer here to get a little bit deeper insight into that.
My Media Categories plugin lets you categorize images, and in the latest update I’ve added to ability to pass a ‘category’ parameter to the standard gallery shortcode. So perhaps you could use the gallery shortcode to present your images on your front page. My next release will include the ability to filter the taxonomy that … Read more

Add or replace this to your register_taxonomy (in functions.php): ‘query_var’ => ‘city’, ‘rewrite’ => true Then append this to your functions.php add_filter(‘post_link’, ‘city_permalink’, 10, 3); add_filter(‘post_type_link’, ‘city_permalink’, 10, 3); function city_permalink($permalink, $post_id, $leavename) { if (strpos($permalink, ‘%city%’) === FALSE) return $permalink; // Get post $post = get_post($post_id); if (!$post) return $permalink; // Get taxonomy terms … Read more
