Usage

There are several ways to display Custom Post Types (CPT) and custom taxonomies in a WordPress theme. Here are some basic examples:

• Single Template (single-prjcts.php): When you create a CPT, you can create a specific template to display individual posts of that type by using a single-{post_type}.php file.
• Archive Template (archive-prjcts.php): To display a list of all posts of a particular CPT, you can create an archive-{post_type}.php file.
• Custom Taxonomy Template (taxonomy-prjcts_category.php): To display terms of a custom taxonomy associated with the CPT, you can create a file like taxonomy-{taxonomy}.php, where ‘prjcts_category’ is the name of the taxonomy.

• You can use WP_Query to create custom queries anywhere in your theme. For example, if you want to display posts from a CPT on a specific page, you can create a new query:

      <?php
  
      $args = array(
          'post_type' => 'prjcts',
          'posts_per_page' => 10,
      );
  
      $the_query = new WP_Query($args);
  
      if ($the_query->have_posts()) :
          while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post();
  
              // YOUR MARKUP HERE
  
          endwhile;
          wp_reset_postdata();
      else :
          echo 'No posts found';
      endif;
  
      ?>
