get posts from 2 categories. (2 posts)

Question

I have a custom post (it's called "items") and 2 categories there.
1. on category page, I need to get posts which belong to 2 categories.

get posts from category1="Food" and category2="featured"

How can I get these posts from 2 categories?

This is what I have been doing is....

I just got posts from "FOOD" like this. at the same time, I also need to get "featured" from "cate-type2".

I am new here so I have no idea how to put html, php codes.. :)

global $post;
$tmp_post = $post;
$args = array(
    'posts_per_page'  => 5,
    'post_type' => 'item',
    'tax_query' => array(
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'cate-type1',
            'field' => 'id',
            'terms' => 39 // Food taxonomy id
        )
    )
);

$myposts = get_posts( $args );

foreach( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata($post); ?>

ADDITION CODE: relation and AND

so I need to get posts from
tax1 : item-special (cate id: 6)
tax2 : item-category (cate id: 39)

---

` $custom_terms = get_terms('item-special'); $other_custom_terms = get_terms('item-category');

foreach ($custom_terms as $custom_term) { foreach ($other_custom_terms as $other_custom_term) { wp_reset_query(); $args = array('post_type' => 'item', 'tax_query' => array( 'relation' => 'AND', array( 'taxonomy' => 'item-category', 'field' => 'id', 'terms' => 6 ), array( 'taxonomy' => 'item-special', 'field' => 'id', 'terms' => 39 ), ), );

 $loop = new WP_Query($args);
 if($loop->have_posts()) {
    echo '<h1 style="margin-top:10px;">'.$custom_term->name.'</h1>';

    while($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post();
        echo '<h2><a href="'.get_permalink().'">'.get_the_title().'</a></h2>';
    endwhile;
 }

} }

`

I think I have little problems with this code. it shows but duplicated and all item posts. how should I fix it?

Thanks,

Answer 1

Now try this, surely it will work

query_posts("cat=1, 2&showposts=5&post_type=item");

while(have_posts()) : the_post();

echo $title = get_the_title();
echo $content = get_the_content();

endwhile;

You can use AND relation between tax_query

$posts = get_posts(  array( 'numberposts'   => -1,
                            'post_type'     => 'post_type',
                            'tax_query'     => array('relation'=> 'AND',
                                                        array(  'taxonomy'  => 'taxonomy_1',
                                                                'field'     => 'id',
                                                                'terms'     => 'taxonomy_id_1'
                                                                )),
                                                        array(  'taxonomy'  => 'taxonomy_id_2',
                                                                'field'     => 'id',
                                                                'terms'     => 'taxonomy_id_2'
                                                                )),
                            'meta_query'    => array(array( 'key' => 'meta_key',
                                                            'value' => 'meta_value'
                                                            ))
                                            )
                                    );
