How to loop through categories of only custom post types?

  • I want to display only the custom post type categories in an unordered list. I’ve tried several different solutions I found on Google and on here, on this forum, but none of them seem to work.

    How would I do this?

  • This code works for me (taken from my theme): 

    <?php
$args = array(
    'type'                     => 'childrenscakes',
    'taxonomy'            => 'childrenscakes-category',
 );

$categories = get_categories( $args );
foreach($categories as $cat){ ?>
    <span class="ref"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></span>
 <?php } ?>

    I hope this helps!

    Could I make custom taxonomies and then display them?

    wp_list_categories( array(
    'taxonomy' => 'customtaxonomy'
) )
