Having difficulties with using my custom post types, categories, and custom taxonomies. I have somehow created two sets of categories. "Projects" is native to the theme (Divi).
Initially, I had no problems with "Sales team members" and "Projects." However, when I added "Industry Links," I added the custom taxonomy "Links" as the category list was getting quite long. Now I realize that I want to use Divi's Filterable Portfolio to display the Industry links and I believe it only works with categories.
How can I safely get rid of the extra category list? Or restrict certain categories to certain post types?
You can go to Toolset > Taxonomies and edit the Categories taxonomy to select the post types where it should be applied. I think that's a more practical solution than deactivating or deleting the taxonomy altogether.
