I love the new Post Types function of ACF, i could stop use other plugins for it.
But the Taxonomies feature is little limited – even if you select e.g. Category taxonomy for a custom post type and you can then set this taxonomy for a post type, it does not mean the post does appear on the category page, unless you update wp_query, like this
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'query_post_type');
function query_post_type($query) {
if( is_category() ) {
$post_type = get_query_var('post_type');
if($post_type)
$post_type = $post_type;
else
$post_type = array('nav_menu_item', 'post', 'movies'); // don't forget nav_menu_item to allow menus to work!
$query->set('post_type',$post_type);
return $query;
}
}
It would be great if users could just allow it in the ACF Post Type admin
