Hello,
I have to build a calendar page and I use the Repeater Field, this need contain some info like: Title, date, where and when. this par of the while work well, I can see easy all the il for every row I make in the backend.
But.
In the second part I need show last 2 news for the specific event. In my posts I have mark it with different category name. Inside the Repeater Field I have added a Taxonomy Field. How I can integrate the Taxonomy Field inside the while of the Repeater Field?
I know to have wrong using this array 'category_name' => $posts->name, but how I can set up it?
The for foreach work, but I see the post from all category.
Some one can help me. Thank you!
<div class="calendar">
<div class="all-events">
<?php if( have_rows('events_list') ): ?>
<ul class="slides">
<?php while( have_rows('events_list') ): the_row();
// vars
$title = get_sub_field('nome_evento');
$where = get_sub_field('luogo');
$when = get_sub_field('data_e_ora');
$month = get_sub_field('mese');
?>
<li class="event-s">
<div class="info-event">
<p><?php echo $month; ?></p>
<h4 class="nome"><?php echo $title; ?></h4>
<p class="dove"><?php echo $where; ?></p>
<p class="quando"><?php echo $when; ?></p>
</div>
<div class="news-event">
<div class="loop-news">
<?php
$posts = get_field('latest_news');
$posts = get_posts(array(
'posts_per_page' => 2,
'post_type' => 'post',
'category_name' => $posts->name,
));
if( $posts ): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach( $posts as $post ):
setup_postdata( $post );
?>
<li>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<span class="img-post"><?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $p->ID ); ?></span><br>
<span class="title-article"><?php the_title(); ?></span>
<span class="excerpt"><?php echo get_the_excerpt( $p->ID ); ?></span>
</a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
Assuming your field ‘latest_news’ is taxonomy field with single selection and returning the term object.
the ‘category_name’ is actually not name, it’s the slug. (i know… it’s confusing :/)
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Category_Parameters
So, you query should be:
$category = get_field('latest_news'); // change your variable name so it doesn't confuse yourself
$posts = get_posts(array(
'posts_per_page' => 2,
'post_type' => 'post',
'category_name' => $category->slug, // this is using slug, not name
'cat' => $category->term_id // or you can do this instead
));
Cheers
Hi Gummi!
Thank you! You have absolutely right!!!
Now work well.
I have set the variable inside the while, using get_sub_field because it’s inside of one Repeater Field. $category = get_sub_field('latest_news').
Also I have set the Taxonomy Filed inside the post.
And the 'category_name' => $category->slug, work perfectly!
Thank you so much!
