How do I edit archive.php to sort posts by category?

Here’s the deal, I’ve made a copy of Virtue’s archive.php (called archive-supplier_post.php) to display my custom post type Supplier. I used GenerateWP’s custom post type generator to get the code for functions.php.

The ultimate goal is this: Suppliers (CPT) within a specific category should be put inside a div for suppliers of said category. Water suppliers should all be put in the same div called “Water”, and so on.

This is what my archive looks like so far:

<?php global $virtue; ?>

<div id="pageheader" class="titleclass">
  <div class="container">
    <?php get_template_part('templates/page', 'header'); ?>
  </div><!--container-->
</div><!--titleclass-->

<div id="content" class="container">
  <div class="row">

    <div class="main <?php echo esc_attr(kadence_main_class()); ?>  supplierlist" role="main">

		<?php if( have_posts() ) : while (have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
             <?php get_template_part('content', 'suppliers'); ?>
			 	<?php if ( in_category( '32' ) ) : ?>
					<div class="post-water">
				<?php elseif ( in_category( '33' ) ) : ?>
				    <div class="post-sewer">
				<?php elseif ( in_category( '34' ) ) : ?>
				    <div class="post-pump">
				<?php else : ?>
					<div class="post">
				<?php endif; ?>
			  
           <?php endwhile; else :?>
          
          <p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>

		<?php endif; ?>
		    <?php if ($wp_query->max_num_pages > 1) :
            virtue_wp_pagenav();
          endif; ?>
    </div><!-- /.main -->

This creates a div class=”post-category” for every post, which is not what I want. I need the posts to be inserted into a div that holds all posts of the same category.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,
JT
