Problem: I have taxonomy terms that are formatted like "Last Name, First Name". When I save a post with this term, the original term is split into two terms "Last Name" and "First Name". If I delete the separate terms and try to add the original term again, the terms are split again.
Solution: Don't use commas in term names. WordPress interprets comma-separated terms as separate terms.
Problem: I would like to create a navigation system that shows icons for all the terms in the same hierarchical level. When the User clicks one of the icons, they are redirected to another page with icons for each of the child terms of the current term, and so on.
Solution: Use a combination of a WordPress Archive and a View of child terms to accomplish this navigation system.
- Create a View of this taxonomy. In the popup when you create the new View, choose "show all results".
- Add a term parent Query Filter to this View, where the term parent is set by the current archive.
- Use the Loop Wizard to create an unordered list. Insert the taxonomy archive link in the loop for now, so we can verify everything is working.
- Create a WordPress Archive and assign it to this taxonomy.
- In the Loop Editor area of the WordPress Archive, use the Loop Wizard to create an ordered list. Insert the post title for now.
- Just above the wpv-loop tag, use the Fields and Views button to insert the taxonomy View you created.
- Now go to one of the parent term archive pages and test it out. If the taxonomy is "category" and the parent term slug is "parent-slug", you can go to yoursite.com/category/parent-slug to see the taxonomy archive.
- You should see a list of child term archive links and also a list of posts in the current term. Click one of the child term archive links, and you will go to a similar archive for the grandchild terms.
- Once that is working as expected, you can go back and edit the View of taxonomy terms to show different information for each term, like the custom image field.
