I am working on a website for a show that I am producing called Puppet Playlist. I am trying to find a way to display the categories that each team member is added into on their own individual pages.
Think of it this way, each artist will work on specific shows. Each show is it's own category. I have on each show page (portfolio posts) a team-member display which shows whatever team members are in that specific category.
What I'm hoping for, is a way to display the shows that the team member has worked on (meaning I want to display a list of the categories that the team member has been added to).
I've seen all of the get_the_categories and get_the_terms, but none seem to be working on my site, and it might partially be because I have no idea where to post them to. I'm using the Joyn Theme by Swift Ideas.
I would like a clear explanation of what to add and where to add it to in order to get the categories to display properly. I'm familiar with code, but am definitely not a coder/developer.
Thanks!

So I have a website where I have companies listed. I have a category section where I put some categories who I may think are popular, you can see a picture of it below. When people are searching for a company on the website or click one of these categories, that data is saved in a database. So the search history is saved. What I am trying to achieve is to know which category is more popular based on the values that are saved in the database and sort the category section. For example if restaurants is more popular in the database it should come first in the category section. I searched for this on google but I couldn’t find an answer. How can I achieve this in PHP?
I've spent some hours trying to understand how to sort out my categories: I'd like to start from checking categories with 0 or 1 article inside.
So I've tried to visualize only the most important categories of my wiki but I found out that it's not trivial. I tried to set the content of some categories to HIDDENCAT but they still get listed in the Categories Special page (click to check on my Wiki).
I understood that the functionality is not working as I was expecting so I am trying to look for some help.
How can I implement (develop) a filter to the shown categories?
I want to redesign my website using WordPress (as CMS) and Bootstrap (as front-end).
Now, I've been pretty successful at doing so, but I have one specific problem.
I have a tutorial website and I want the navigation structure to look like this :
If the user is on my 'website-name/tutorials' then display to him all of the tutorial series titles in an unordered list (so for example C++, XHTML and CSS - but not individual tutorials in each series)...
If the user clicks on some specific serie, then display an ordered list of the elements (so, if he clicks C++, then URL will be 'website-name/tutorials/cplusplus' and he will be able to see all of the tutorial in an ordered list).
If the clicks on one specific tutorial, then the URL goes (for example) 'website-name/tutorials/cplusplus/installing-the-program' and user gets all the content related to the tutorial.
Now, I have been experimenting with this and concluded that the best solution is to create custom post type named "Tutorial" and then make every single tutorial that post type.
However, since on 'website-name/tutorials/cplusplus' I want to display the list of tutorials in "C++" tutorial series and on 'website-name/tutorials' I want to display only the tutorial names, I don't know how to do that.
I tried to do that using Hiearchical posts (so, for example, I made a parent post named "C++" and it's children were all of the tutorials in the C++ serie).
However, I have a problem with that, because my C++ tutorial series has 100 tutorials, but it shows me 101 list elements (I made the website display all the custom post types in an ordered list), with the first one on the list being C++ (the parent post).
So, I'd like to echo the series name only on the 'website-name/tutorials' not on the beginning of the list.
I researched and people seem to use archive in custom post types, rather than parent/child system for this kind of navigation.
I just wanted some of the WP experienced users here to tell me, which is the better solution for my problem? Dealing with these parent/child problems or switching from parent/child posts to archive posts?
If I understand fully perhaps using standard posts and categories will do the trick? Your '/tutorials/' page can display the full list of all posts and when a user clicks on a specific category (e.g. C++) only the relevant posts will display.
You can use the following code to list posts of a specific category:
<?php query_posts( 'cat=20' ); ?>
Changing "20" with the chosen category ID.
Hope this helps!
Hi I have been trying for a few hours now but I can't seem to figure it out for myself, I'm using the fish pig word-press plugin and I want to display word press blog post Associated with Magento category. There is a tab in the magento back end for doing so but I can't get it to display in the front-end
<action method="setEntity"><type><![CDATA[cms_page]]></type></action>
I think the key to getting it to display is the "set Entity" but I can't get it right.
I have tried to change it to many things but it still ain't working
If you're trying to display associated blog posts on the Magento category page, this isn't possible. At the time of writing, associating a blog post with a Magento category is just a quick way to associate that post with all of the products in the category.
I will be working on an update in the future that will allow you to show associations on the category page, but currently this would require some custom development on your part. To do this, you would need to query the database to extract the post/category relationships and then load a post collection based on that.
I am trying to include categories in search results I've been google-ing for hours now with no solution.
Now by including categories i dont mean search in a certain category, i mean lets say i have a bicycle store and have many companies included in the site. A user searched for BMX mountain cross.. for example. it will return the category BMX first(by clicking you'll be sent to category page) and the posts related to the search term like wordpress normally does.
Anyone has any clue or could point me to the right direction?
This plugin should do the trick
