Stuck with some Custom Taxonomy templating
3 replies · Started by Henry on August 26, 2020
This snippet works great to create a two-column layout for Custom Taxonomy.
add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns','tax_country_portfolio_columns' );
function tax_country_portfolio_columns( $columns ) {
if ( is_tax( 'country' ) ) {
return true;
}
return $columns;
}However, the issue is that I'd like to NOT have a two-column layout on some of the "country" taxonomy pages. Is there a way to do this?
Is the approach to use an ELSE statement?
I tried this but it didn't work because I've misued the way WordPress and the "tax" slug work (I think).
If there's anyone good at PHP can you please take a look and advise please?
Here's my attempt:
add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns','cpt_archive_portfolio_columns' );
function cpt_archive_portfolio_columns( $columns ) {
$cats = array('term-3','term-4','term-16','term-1','term-9');
foreach($cats as $cid) {
if ( is_tax( $cid ) ) {
return false;
}
else
return true;
}
return $columns;
}An example of a page I am trying to prevent from having two columns has a slug, like this:
"country/united-kingdom"
And the body tag is like this:
<body class="archive tax-country term-austria term-249 wp-custom-logo wp-embed-responsive cookies-not-set post-image-above-header post-image-aligned-center generate-columns-activated wp-schema-pro-2.1.2 no-sidebar nav-float-right fluid-header separate-containers active-footer-widgets-0 header-aligned-left dropdown-hover" itemtype="https://schema.org/Blog" itemscope>
All help gratefully received - thanks!
Hi there,
the is_tax() conditional tag is made up of two arguments, first is the $taxonomy, then the optional $term
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_tax/
Try this, it will first check if it is 'country' and the check if the $term exists
add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns','cpt_archive_portfolio_columns' );
function tax_country_portfolio_columns( $columns ) {
// Check if country taxonomy
if ( is_tax( 'country') ) {
// Check terms are in array
if ( is_tax( 'country', array('term-3','term-4','term-16','term-1','term-9') ) ) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
return $columns;
}Thanks, David, really appreciate your help. I tried (via PHP Snippets) and I get this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{', expecting '(' on line 8
Ooops.... updated code above:
