thanks for the reply. I actually got that part to work. I did have to create a page template. Trying to google what I wanted to accomplish was a pain in the butt.
Anyway, next order of business is getting the actual post to display when clicked on in the archive.
I am using PODS to create my CPT’s and taxonomies if that makes a difference.
I’m guessing it is a rewrite issue, but whatever it is, the permalinks are not working correctly. I need them to display as “Domain/collection/%collection%/%post_title/” where %collection% is the term of the collection taxonomy and %post_title% is the post related to the term
In the pods rewrite form, I have collection/%collection% set thinking that the %collection% would display the actual collection selected (it doesn’t).
I also have the archive page rewrite set to the same thing, but that didnt work either. I also tried just having collection itself.
In addition, the breadcrumbs links for individual products are not displaying the right hierarchy either. It is displaying “Home>product group>(Item) opposed to Home>Collections>%collection%>%product%
Here is the code so far:
page-collection.php – WORKS!
<?php
/*
Template Name: Collections
*/
get_header();
$terms = get_terms( 'collection' );
echo '<ul>';
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
// The $term is an object, so we don't need to specify the $taxonomy.
$term_link = get_term_link( $term );
// If there was an error, continue to the next term.
if ( is_wp_error( $term_link ) ) {
continue;
}
// We successfully got a link. Print it out.
echo '<li><a href="' . esc_url( $term_link ) . '">' . $term->name . '</a></li>';
echo $term->description; // This will return the description of the term
}
echo '</ul>';
?><?php get_footer(); ?>
taxonomy-collection.php — Works from collections, but not from product going up.
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php $term = get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) ); ?>
<div id="container">
<div id="content" >
<h1 class="page-title"><?php echo $term->name; ?> </h1>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
/*Create filter to only display top level product groups if variants exist in any child post type relationship*/
<div >
<h2 class="entry-title">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</a>
</h2>
<div class="entry-summary">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-summary -->
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>
single-pods_product_grps.php — the main part works, but not my custom functions that display product variants
<?php
get_header();
if ( have_posts() ) {
while ( have_posts() ) {
the_post();
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
$large_image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'large' );
echo '<div><a href="' . $large_image_url[0] . '" title="' . the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) . '">';
the_post_thumbnail( 'medium' );
echo '</a></div>';
}
?><div>
<?php
echo "Test if this is working";
the_content();?> </div> <div>
<?php
//determine if child groups exist
/*If product group has child groups
* Loop child groups into drop down selection box :returns group_ID
If no child group: just return parents group ID
*/
do_action('display_products');
echo '</div>';
} // end while
} // end if
?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
