    Hi All

    I am trying to add a message to a custom post type archive page if a taxonomy filter brings no post results.

    This is the code on my custom archive page

    <?php get_header(); ?>
<section id="content" role="main">
<header class="header">
<?php if(function_exists('show_beautiful_filters')) echo show_beautiful_filters('p-showcase'); ?>
</header>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div id="showcases-arch">
<div class="showcase-thumb"><img src="<?php the_field('sho-thumb'); ?>"/></div>
<div class="showcase-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>
<div class="showcase-details"><?php the_excerpt(); ?> <br/><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"> View the full showcase</a></div></div>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'nav', 'below' ); ?>
</section>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    Sorry my php ability is around the copy and paste level. I have tried a few variants using <?php else but they all have syntax errors

    Any help will be appreciated

  • Hi Brad,

    You can just change it to:

    <?php get_header(); ?>

<section id="content" role="main">

	<header class="header">
		<?php if(function_exists('show_beautiful_filters')) echo show_beautiful_filters('p-showcase'); ?>
	</header>

	<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?> 

		<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
			<div id="showcases-arch">
				<div class="showcase-thumb"><img src="<?php the_field('sho-thumb'); ?>"/></div>
				<div class="showcase-title">
					<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
				</div>
				<div class="showcase-details">
					<?php the_excerpt(); ?> <br/><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"> View the full showcase</a>
				</div>
			</div>
		<?php endwhile; ?>

		<?php get_template_part( 'nav', 'below' ); ?>

	<?php else: ?>

		<h1><?php _e('No posts found'); ?></h1>

	<?php endif; ?>

</section>

<?php get_footer(); ?>
