IDs are your friends. Get the category list using get_category (i’m assuming we are talking about the in-built WordPress “category” taxonomy, which slug is category). $categories = get_categories( array( ‘hide_empty’ => false // This is optional ) ); Use the obtained category list in the output of your <select> field: <?php // get $selected_term_id from … Read more
If you are only showing one post of each category then in your query_posts() change the &paged=’.$paged to &offset=”.$paged
Not sure if this is exactly what you’re asking, but it sounds like you’re looking for nested loops. This will list the most recent 5 posts in every category on your site: foreach ( get_terms(‘category’) as $category ) { echo ‘<h2>’.$category->name.'</h2>’; echo ‘<ul>’; foreach ( get_posts( ‘cat=”.$category->term_id ) as $post ) { setup_postdata( $post ); … Read more

Once you retrieved your categories, let’s say in $categories, you can do something like this: <?php foreach ($categories as $catgory) { ?> <form id=”cat-button-form-<?php echo $category->ID; ?>” action=”<?php echo $url_to_step_2; ?>” method=”POST”> <input type=”hidden” name=”mycat” value=”<?php echo $category->ID; ?>” /> <input type=”submit” name=”getcat” id=”getcat_<?php echo $category->ID; ?>” class=”btn_catstep” value=”<?php printf(__(‘Select %s & Continue’), $category->name); ?>” … Read more
Sorted this myself! May help some people… $cat = get_query_var(‘cat’); $prod_extras = get_option(Category_Extras); $this_application = $prod_extras[$cat][‘Category_Extras_Applications’]; if(!empty($this_application)) { echo $this_application; } Cheers, Dave
Open the theme index.php (or other theme template file) and look for something like this: <div id=”more_reading”> … </div> replace with: <?php if ( $wp_query->max_num_pages > 1 ) : ?> <div id=”more_reading”> … </div> <?php endif; ?> or just remove “Continue”
I’m pretty sure i missunderstood you… Approach: Categories & Terms (built in taxonomies) You have got categories (hierarchical built in taxonomy) & terms (non-hierarchical built in taxonomy). You can also assign terms to categories. So i’d say, you can take the following approach using the built in taxonomies: shoes (parent category) boots (child category) sneakers … Read more
If you are no afraid of code , take a look at http://www.deluxeblogtips.com/p/taxonomy-meta-script-for-wordpress.html it had a great class to add “meta fields” for taxonomies (including categories) and a very simple way to implement the built in media uploader to a custom field in the edit category screen. Uploaded images’ ID are saved as a field … Read more
Having two separate taxonomies may make sense for you in this case.
