The following code provided by Mike Schinkel, creates a custom post type and a custom taxonomy. It makes the taxonomy to show up in the custom post type's column. Finally, it inserts some default terms.

I would like to insert a second taxonomy for the custom post type (Page Content) called: Locations.

(this second custom taxonomy should also show up in the column of the custom post type)

How can I modify the code to archive that?

<?php

/**
 * Create the Page Content custom post type and the Page Section custom taxonomy
 */
add_action('init', 'my_init_method');

if (!class_exists('YourSite_PageContent')) {
 class YourSite_PageContent {

     add_filter('manage_posts_custom_column',
         array(__CLASS__,'manage_posts_custom_column'),10,2);
     add_action('restrict_manage_posts',
         array(__CLASS__,'restrict_manage_posts'));
     add_filter('parse_query',
         array(__CLASS__,'parse_query'));
   }

EDIT (What I've done so far with no PHP skills):

By modyfing the code this is what I've done so far:

I'm still struggling with this line:

   function manage_page_content_posts_columns($columns){
     $new = array();
     foreach($columns as $key => $title) {
       if ($key=='author') // Put the Page Sections column before the Author column
         $new['locations_column'] = 'Locations';
         $new['cb'] = '<input type="checkbox">';
         $new['title'] = 'Title';
         $new['page_sections_column'] = 'Page Sections';
       $new[$key] = $title;
     }
     return $new;
   }

I can't manage to place Page Sections before Locations.

How to solve this?

  • why are some WPSE members encouraging the use of classes like this? Thiswill just make it even harder for PHP beginners to understand OOP.

I use the following in my filter hook manage_edit-<post-type>_columns

add_filter( 'manage_edit-visitor_columns', array( &$this, '_wp_filter_visitor_columns' ) );

public function _wp_filter_visitor_columns( $columns )
{
    $columns = array(
            'cb' => '<input type="checkbox" />',
            'title' => 'Name',
            'type' => 'Type',
            //'state' => 'Current State',
            'id' => 'Visitor ID',
            'acct' => 'Using Account',
        );

    return $columns;
}

And to filter the column view, I use the following:

add_action( 'manage_posts_custom_column', array( &$this, '_wp_filter_visitor_column_view' ) );

public function _wp_filter_visitor_column_view( $column )
{
    global $post;
    if ( $column == "type" )
    {
        //$terms = get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'v_types', '', ', ', '' );
        //echo strip_tags( $terms );

        $terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'v_types' );
        echo $terms[0]->name;
    }
    elseif ( $column == "state" OR $column == "workstation" )
    {
        $workstation = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'v_workstation', true );
        if ( $column == "workstation" ) echo $workstation;
        elseif ( $column == "state" ) echo 'Not coded....';
    }
    elseif ( $column == "id" )
    {
        echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'v_id', true );
    }
    elseif ( $column == "acct" )
    {
        $terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'v_accounts' );
        echo $terms[0]->name;
    }
}

I hope this helps you.
