I have installed the plugin "related posts by taxonomy". And I want the right side bar to display the related pages of the same parent. I have added "related posts by taxonomy" Widget to the right side bar in the wordpress generatepress background. But there are only posts type (post_type=post) in the background, how to add page type (post_type=page). How do I achieve it, do I need to add functions to the theme or customize it? Please give guidance or code.
Sample as below & please check the attactments:
The goal achievement result is: when accessing "Page A-1" (Domain.com/page-a/page-a-1/), the right column will display "Page A-2" and "Page A-3" under the same parent category, and others will not be displayed.
Similarly, when accessing "Page B-2" (Domain.com/page-b/page-b-1/), the right column will display "Page B-2" and "Page B-3" under the same parent category, and others will not be displayed.
Hi there,
Have you checked with the plugin support for this?
Hi,
Yes, but not very helpful. Please give some guidance.
Hi there,
by default Pages do not have categories - so how have you added Categories to pages ?
Hi,
Thanks.
No category is added. But page can have parent page, how to display pages under the same parent category.
Looking forward to your reply.
Try the Page List plugin - it has a siblings option:
Hi,
Thanks!
But, I still use the "related posts by taxonomy" plugin. I don't want to change other plugins. How can I switch the post-type and switch "post-type=post" to "post-type=page" display?
There is not much we can do about a 3rd party plugins options. The theme has no control over that. You would need to have that custom developed or accept that another plugin is not a bad thing if it provides what you need.
