  • Do you mean you have created custom category taxonomy or that you have applied native categories to your CPT?

There is no concept natively of archive for intersection of specific custom post type with specific taxonomy.

There are multiple approaches here, but all will take some tinkering:

  • you can adjust category term archives to include your CPT (via pre_get_posts hook)
  • you can extend custom post type archives with endpoint to filter them by category
  • probably more ways, it gets pretty arbitrary outside of native functionality

In your specific case I find it a little strange that CPT in question is a "Blog", since that's what native posts already are (and likely easier to go with for, well, blog).

  • i think my question is not clear for all. I need to show category wise posts for custom post type in wordpress. I have tried a lot with the code, but yet no result. Is there any way to display posts category wise for custom post type in wp. Normal post can be show easy way by category or tags wise. But how i show in custom post type.
