"Group By" Category with multiple categories

  • I’m back with a better understanding of the plugin and a new question! I have the list sorting by category successfully except if multiple posts share a category.

    Example:
    Post 1 is in “Category A”
    Post 2 is in “Category B”
    Post 3 is in “Category A” and “Category B”

    My list displays:
    “Category A”
    Post 1
    Post 3
    “Category B”
    Post 2

    It doesn’t display Post 3 in the second category. Seems like it is not looking beyond a single post for each category. Is it possible to get Post 3 to show up under both categories in the list? I hope that makes sense. Thanks!!

    Hi,
    There is a difference in two list, 1. Category -> Posts, 2. Posts, grouped by category.

    1. Category -> Posts: Display x number of post under each category. You can limit what categories to display, and how many posts under it.

    2. Posts, grouped by category: Based on your settings, if you are showing 10 posts, then it display all of those 10 posts, and group them based on its first category. It does not look for what are the other posts for that category outside of those 10.

    I assume you will need to use first scenario.

    Thanks.

    I’m sorry, I messed up in my example. My list is set up as List Type: Posts, Orderby: Category with Posts: Tax Query of a Tag that is shared between posts.

    Current Example:
    A Post is in “Category A” and “Category B” with “TAG 1”

    My list displays:
    “Category A”
    Post 1

    “Category B”
    – not showing up here –

    Sorry for the confusion, is there any way to get the list to show the same post under both categories when based on a Tag? Thanks again!!
