Creating a "custom taxonomy" and use the Display Rules to display Page Header
5 replies · Started by Huy on May 26, 2019
Hi Generatepress team
I want to use Page Headers feature to display a header to some posts automatically. Let me make it clearer
- In my website, there are 3 types of posts with 3 different formats, for example: "Article A", "Article B", "Article C".
- I create 3 Headers which are "Header A", "Header B", "Header C"
- In order "Header A" to display on the type of "Article A", I can assign proper taxonomies like Category & Tag for them and set up in the Display Rules, right?
- However, because I want to use Category and Tag for another purpose, is there anyway to create a "custom taxonomy", assign for each post, and use the Display Rules to display them?
I don't know if I am clear enough, hope to receive the support
Thanks
Hi there,
thats correct - you can use the Post Category or Post Tag display rule.
I am not sure i understand the need for the Custom Taxonomy. If each article type has a unique category or tag then why not use that?
Hi David
Because an article of "Article A" can belong to so many categories, so I can't use the category and tag.
And I want to create a Custom Taxonomy and I can use the Display Rules with those Custom Taxonomies
I don't know if have any solutions with this issue, thanks
There should be no issue if you register a new taxonomy for the post. This article here provides a plugin and a simple code method for doing that:
