I am trying to show some posts on a template based on their custom taxonomy.
Here is my template code:
<?php $field = get_field('newsletter_date'); ?>
<?php
$args = array (
'orderby' => 'rand',
'taxonomy' => 'newsdates',
'field' => 'id',
'terms' => "$field",
'post_type' => 'post',
);
$queryarticles = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php while ($queryarticles -> have_posts()) : $queryarticles -> the_post(); ?>
<h4 class="homerssfeed"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="nound"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4>
<span class="dcecright">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</span>
<?php endwhile;?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
and here is what is in my function.php:
// Register Custom Taxonomy
function newsdates_taxonomy() {
$labels = array(
'name' => _x( 'Newsletter Dates', 'Taxonomy General Name', 'text_domain' ),
'singular_name' => _x( 'Newsletter Date', 'Taxonomy Singular Name', 'text_domain' ),
'menu_name' => __( 'Newsletter Date', 'text_domain' ),
'all_items' => __( 'All Newsletter Dates', 'text_domain' ),
'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Date', 'text_domain' ),
'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Date:', 'text_domain' ),
'new_item_name' => __( 'New Date', 'text_domain' ),
'add_new_item' => __( 'Add Newsletter Date', 'text_domain' ),
'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Date', 'text_domain' ),
'update_item' => __( 'Update Date', 'text_domain' ),
'separate_items_with_commas' => __( 'Separate dates with commas', 'text_domain' ),
'search_items' => __( 'Search dates', 'text_domain' ),
'add_or_remove_items' => __( 'Add or remove dates', 'text_domain' ),
'choose_from_most_used' => __( 'Choose from the most used dates', 'text_domain' ),
);
$args = array(
'labels' => $labels,
'hierarchical' => false,
'public' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_admin_column' => true,
'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
'show_tagcloud' => true,
);
register_taxonomy( 'newsdates', 'post', $args );
}
// Hook into the 'init' action
add_action( 'init', 'newsdates_taxonomy', 0 );
}
