Categories Fro Custom Post Types

  • In my WordPress install, I created a custom post type but chose to use the existing taxonomy structure for that post type.

    My custom post types (products) are therefore categorised and tagged just the same as normal posts.

    However, my custom post types do not show in category pages where normal posts show up. I think custom post types we designed to work like this?

    How can I create a custom category page that displays custom post types filed in a certain category?

    Thank you!

  • <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts(array(
	'post_type' => 've_products', // custom post type
         'paged'=>$paged,
        ));
?>

    this query before your loop will call in custom post types (ve_products for me), you can add to the query to do more stuff…
    for instance adding:
    'category_name'=>'clothing',
    would show posts in the custom post type categorized as clothing

    you could also add post into the post type I’m sure to display posts from custom post type and normal posts…..
