Problem: The Product Category filter in a Product Category archive only contains the current Product Category. I would like to let my Users browse other Product Category archives.
Solution: If you go to a product-category archive, then try to filter by another archive term...it's no longer the same archive. So you won't see other product-category terms appear in this filter, by design. If you'd like to change that behavior, you have two options:
- Create a custom search View filtered by this taxonomy, and place this View in the Loop Output editor of your WordPress Archive, just above the wpv-loop tags. Remove everything from inside the wpv-loop tags of the WP Archive. This option has its own challenges, because it's not simple to select the correct filter option when the page first loads.
- Use custom code to build a select element that includes options for each category, and use custom JavaScript to navigate to another product category archive when the user selects something in the select field. It's not a true filter, it's just a navigation element. Another ticket describes how this might be created: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/create-a-category-jump-menu/#post-347585
Problem:
I'm using Buddypress and the Mediapress plugin to allow users to create their own image galleries and upload photos to those galleries. I created a custom taxonomy for the galleries so that I can create views that are filtered by that taxonomy. The only issue is that I need to add a taxonomy input field (radio buttons) to the gallery creation page (template) so that users can select the appropriate taxonomy term when they create a gallery. Is this possible?
Solution:
If it is created/setup by the plugin "mpp-gallery", then it depends on plugin "mpp-gallery", I suggest you ask help from the author of plugin "mpp-gallery", check if it supports custom taxonomies.
