Custom Post Type + Categories

Question

I've installed Custom Post Type UI plugin on my client's site. I have registered two new post types called Resources and Case Studies. I've enabled them to have categories and tags support. All of this works fine.

However, I want to be able to show a list of categories for only the case studies in the case studies sidebar and a list of the categories for the resource posts in the resources sidebar. Right now they appear to overlap and share categories and tags. Is there something I am missing?

If you view this page you will see the sidebar shows http://goconcentric.com/resources/resource-2/ case studies as an option when this is a resource post. Similarly case study posts have a link to resources. I want the categories to be separate and only show on the pages in their hierarchy.

Answer 1

You should use not the categories, but two different custom taxonomies (it's like custom categories, if you're not familiar with with WordPress taxonomies).

You can create two separate taxonomies via Custom Post Type UI plugin. screenshot

And select to which of the post types, created taxonomy belongs. Also select that custom taxonomy is hierarchical, so it's displayed like a category , not like tags.
