How to include my taxonomy and custom fields

  • Trying to get this working with a new custom post type I just made. I setup the custom post type using the Custom Post Type UI Plugin and added a field using Advanced Custom Fields. I’m trying to add the custom field to the form but it doesn’t show up. I’m also not sure how to include the custom taxonomy for my custom post.

    Looks like my custom field might have showed up, but the taxonomy isn’t. In a “normal” post, you can have a Gravity Field for “Post Category.” I want the equivalent of this for my Custom Post Type – any tips?

    Ya…. this is resolved. I read the manual ??

    HOW TO LINK A FIELD TO A CUSTOM TAXONOMY

    Add the desired field to which the custom taxonomy should be mapped. Drop Down, Multi Select, Radio Buttons and Checkboxes fields are current supported.
    Open the field settings by clicking on the field and click on the “Advanced” tab.
    Check the “Populate with a Taxonomy” checkbox.
    Select the desired taxonomy from the drop down that appears.

    OK …. still got an issue. My custom taxonomy has a parent-> child relationship. Is there a way to get that to show up at all? It lists all the categories in a list without showing that hierarchy.
