Hm hm. WordPress might be good at making this work, but isn’t too good at making it convenient to work with. Typically get_queried_object() is a good way to access such context, but in this case it will merely hold the first term and ignore the rest. You will probably have to scrape this information out … Read more
You can do this couple of ways. By checking depth of the category/sub-category. If we are browsing main/parent categories then show a custom template, if we are on sub-categories then show another template and this goes on. We can check if a category is ending category of not. Ending category means if a category does … Read more
You can use categories with pages by registering the category taxonomy for the page object type: function categories_for_pages(){ register_taxonomy_for_object_type( ‘category’, ‘page’ ); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘categories_for_pages’ ); If you want to use a separate taxonomy for this, you can register your own taxonomy for pages.

You can wrap the output within a form with form action to the same page and upon user submitting the form, you can get the category id value and query for the posts within that category. Or you can use jQuery so that you don’t need any form at … Read more
Don’t let the fields be set to null or unset altogether. The queries needed to get that data are not efficient. Set your field to “no” or some other value. function save_details(){ global $post; if (defined(‘DOING_AUTOSAVE’) && DOING_AUTOSAVE) { return $post->ID; } $valid = array( ‘yes’ => ‘yes’, ‘no’ => ‘no’ ); if ( isset … Read more
