Generating wordpress menu from custom taxonomies
I've created a custom post type (products) that has some custom taxonomies. One of which is 'category'. I would like to have my menu under Products generated automatically with the custom taxonomy 'category' so that on the menu they can click PRODUCTS -> <category>
and it will take them to a list of that particular products with that category (I've already got a page that displays a single product, and a page that lists ALL the products). Note that some category
taxonomies will have children and I would like to show that in the menu too.
I'm somewhat new to wordpress and the only way I know how to create the menu is through the wp-admin, but I don't want to go in and create a page/menu for each category and subcategory.
Is what I'm talking about even possible? Thank you!
Custom Post Type is here:
add_action( 'init', 'create_product_post_type' );
function create_product_post_type()
{
$labels = array(
'name' => _x('Products', 'post type general name'),
'singular_name' => _x('Product', 'post type singular name'),
'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'product'),
'add_new_item' => __('Add New Product'),
'edit_item' => __('Edit Product'),
'new_item' => __('New Product'),
'view_item' => __('View Product'),
'search_item' => __('Search Products'),
'not_found' => __('No products found'),
'not_found_in_trash' => __('No products found in Trash'),
'parent_item_colon' => '',
'menu_name' => 'Products'
);
$args = array(
'label' => __('Products'),
'labels' => $labels,
'public' => true,
'can_export' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'_builtin' => false,
'capability_type' => 'post',
'menu_icon' => get_bloginfo('template_url').'/functions/images/product.png',
'hierarchical' => false,
'rewrite' => array( "slug" => "product" ),
'supports' => array('title'), //MAYBE add thumbnail later!
'show_in_nav_menus' => true
);
register_post_type( 'product', $args);
}
And here is the taxonomy:
function create_productcategory_taxonomy() {
$labels = array(
'name' => _x( 'Categories', 'taxonomy general name' ),
'singular_name' =>_x( 'Category', 'taxonomy singular name' ),
'search_items' => __( 'Search Categories' ),
'popular_items' => __( 'Popular Categories' ),
'all_items' => __( 'All Categories' ),
'parent_item' => null,
'parent_item_colon' => null,
'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Product Category' ),
'update_item' => __( 'Update Product Category' ),
'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Product Category' ),
'new_item_name' => __( 'New Product Category' ),
'separate_items_with_commas' => __( 'Separate categories with commas' ),
'add_or_remove_items' => __( 'Add or remove product categories' ),
'choose_from_most_used' => __( 'Choose from the most used categories' )
);
register_taxonomy('p开发者_开发知识库roductcategory', 'product', array (
'label' => __('Product Category'),
'labels' => $labels,
'hierarchical' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'query_var' => true,
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'product-category'),
));
}
Try wp_list_categories. It exports the categories from a taxonomy with links to the depth of your choosing. (so as many children categories as you want) formatted as a list (e.g. with <ul>
and <li>
elements).
I would add this where the menu you want to replace would go in your template. Hope that helps, but I'll come back and be more specific if it doesn't.
I forgot to mention that the pages that it links to go to category pages. See here.
