List sub categories, and associated posts

  • Hi,

    I created a custom category page template. On this template, I want to list the 3 sub categories. Then, under each sub category, I want to list the posts that are filed under them. So, it would look like:

    Parent
    -Sub Category 1
    –Post 1
    –Post 2

    -Sub Category 2
    –Post 1
    –Post 2

    -Sub Category 3
    –Post 1
    –Post 2

    How can I do this?

    Thanks

  • See if this works for you:

    <?php
//get all child categories for category 15, then for each child category display the posts
$parent_cat = 15;
$taxonomy = 'category';
$cat_children = get_term_children( $parent_cat, $taxonomy );

if ($cat_children) {
  echo '<p>Category 15</p>';
	foreach($cat_children as $category) {
    $args=array(
      'cat' => $category,
      'post_type' => 'post',
      'post_status' => 'publish',
      'posts_per_page' => -1,
      'caller_get_posts'=> 1
    );
    $my_query = null;
    $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
    if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
      echo 'List of Posts belonging to Category ' . $category;
      while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
        <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
        <?php
      endwhile;
    }
  }
}
wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
?>

    *awesome

    How can I do this for custom post type taxonomies?
