[Resolved] Taxonomy from WP recipe maker & GP blog compatibility

[Christine]

Hi! I have WP recipe maker on my site and when I ask it to make an archive page for one of the taxonomies it has created, it picks up my GP element for the content template, but it doesn’t pick up the message that it’s supposed to be a grid with three columns and spacing. It’s all on one column and no space inbetween.

I’ve posted privately the link where you can see this. Is there a way to fix it to look like the others?

Thanks!

P.S. Not sure if it’s relevant here but I have some css customization of the blog page already to make it compatible with facetwp. https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/facet-wp-with-blog-archive/#post-2118241

Hi Cristine,

The reason why the columns functionality isn’t woking is because the Archive page created by your plugin is a Custom Post type archive.

To make the column settings take effect in Custom Post Type Archives as well, you’ll need to add a Custom PHP snippet.

Specifically, this:

add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $columns ) {
    if ( 'CPT_SLUG' === get_post_type() && ! is_singular() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return $columns;
} );

Kindly replace CPT_SLUG with the slug name of the CPT created by the plugin. Please reach out to the plugin support of WP recipe maker for assistance with regards to the slug name.

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/#code-snippets

Adding it through Code Snippets should work.

Hope this helps. 🙂
