[Plugin: WP Easy Post Types] How to share taxonomies with posts

  • I understand how to share taxonomies between custom field types. However, how do I share one with basic posts, as well?

    For instance, I have a list of town categories which I would like to apply to businesses and organizations custom types as well as the news updates being posted as basic posts.

    Is there any way to do this with Easy Post Types?

    Hoping there’s an answer to this. The plugin is the best, except for this issue.

    Did you ever figure this out? I’d to also be able to share the default categories/tags with custom types.

    I actually put custom post types on hold until 3.1 when multiple taxonomy queries is baked into core.

    It seems that I did find a plugin that supporte custom taxoomies across basic and custom post types, but I do not recall which one.

    Ok thanks for the response jcollier. I didn’t realize core would be updating this. ??

    I think this particular problem is not limited by core, but the problem I described was simply something that put off my testing and resolution of this issue.

    Yeah, it’s not limited by core.

    I’ve been able to add the default category/tags by adding this to functions.php:

    `function create_custom_taxonomies() {
    //custom post type
    register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘category’, ‘custom-type’);
    register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘post_tag’, ‘custom-type’);
    }
    add_action( ‘init’, ‘create_custom_taxonomies’);

    Of course ideally this will be part of WP Easy Post Types.
