taxonomy – twentyfifteen-xili

The taxonomy is the basis of categories, keywords (tags) and other rankings in WordPress (like language with xili-language trilogy). Since WP 2.3, all key components are found in the file wp-includes / taxonomy.php. WP 4.4 release announces a big change. The developer will seek information in 3 files:

&lt;?php
/**
 * Core Taxonomy API
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Taxonomy
 * @since 2.3.0
 */

/** Core taxonomy functionality */
require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . &#039;/taxonomy-functions.php&#039; );

/** WP_Term class */
require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . &#039;/class-wp-term.php&#039; );

/** WP_Tax_Query class */
require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . &#039;/class-wp-tax-query.php&#039; );

<?php

/**

* Core Taxonomy API

* @package WordPress

* @subpackage Taxonomy

* @since 2.3.0

/** Core taxonomy functionality */

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/taxonomy-functions.php' );

/** WP_Term class */

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-wp-term.php' );

/** WP_Tax_Query class */

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-wp-tax-query.php' );

including the new wp-term class that strengthens the previous object describing the terms methodically …

Added to this is the new term meta table that will be very useful to supplement the description of a tag, for example.

It is too early to draw conclusions but Xili-language will continue to take advantage of these new classes, functions and tables.

For now, Xili-language still works;-)

Justin Tadlock has published a comprehensive article for developers.

To still follow (closely) …

$faq_args = array(
        'post_type'      =&gt; 'hrf_faq',
        'post_status'    =&gt; 'publish',
        'posts_per_page' =&gt; -1,
        'orderby'        =&gt; 'menu_order',
        'order'          =&gt; 'ASC',
        'lang' =&gt; xili_curlang()
   );

   if( $faq_params['category'] != '' ){
      $faq_args['category_name'] = $faq_params['category'];
   }

   $faq_query = new WP_Query( $faq_args );

   if( $faq_query-&gt;have_posts() ):
      while( $faq_query-&gt;have_posts() ):
         $faq_query-&gt;the_post();

$faq_args = array(

'post_type' => 'hrf_faq',

'post_status' => 'publish',

'posts_per_page' => -1,

'orderby' => 'menu_order',

'order' => 'ASC',

'lang' => xili_curlang()

);

if( $faq_params['category'] != '' ){

$faq_args['category_name'] = $faq_params['category'];

}

$faq_query = new WP_Query( $faq_args );

if( $faq_query->have_posts() ):

while( $faq_query->have_posts() ):

$faq_query->the_post();

In the lines above, the WP_Query is called with query vars as in URI. Currently, the result is good because the request will be now transformed in an array of params (and taxonomy).

TIPS: But it is possible to give a better description with arrays passed as below (remember ‘language’ is a taxonomy since 6 years):

 if ( $faq_params['lang'] ) {
	   		$lang_slug = ( $faq_params['lang'] == 'cur') ? xili_curlang() : $faq_params['lang'] ;

	   		$query = array(
				'numberposts' =&gt; -1,
				'post_type' =&gt; 'hrf_faq',
				'tax_query' =&gt; array(
					'relation' =&gt; 'AND',

					array(
						'field'    =&gt; 'slug',
						'taxonomy' =&gt; 'language',
						'terms'    =&gt; $lang_slug,
					),
				),
			);
			if ($faq_params['category'] != '') {
				$query['tax_query'][] = array(
						'field'    =&gt; 'slug',
						'taxonomy' =&gt; 'category',
						'terms'    =&gt; explode (',', $faq_params['category'])
					);

			}

		} else {
			$query = array(
				'numberposts' =&gt; -1,
				'post_type' =&gt; 'hrf_faq'
				);

			if ($faq_params['category'] != '') {
				$query['tax_query'] = array(
					array(
						'field'    =&gt; 'slug',
						'taxonomy' =&gt; 'category',
						'terms'    =&gt; explode (',', $faq_params['category'])
					));

			}

		}

		$faqs = new WP_Query( $query ) ;
		if ($faqs) {
			while ( $faqs-&gt;have_posts() ) : $faqs-&gt;the_post();

				$ID = get_the_ID();

if ( $faq_params['lang'] ) {

$lang_slug = ( $faq_params['lang'] == 'cur') ? xili_curlang() : $faq_params['lang'] ;

$query = array(

'numberposts' => -1,

'post_type' => 'hrf_faq',

'tax_query' => array(

'relation' => 'AND',

array(

'field' => 'slug',

'taxonomy' => 'language',

'terms' => $lang_slug,

);

if ($faq_params['category'] != '') {

$query['tax_query'][] = array(

'field' => 'slug',

'taxonomy' => 'category',

'terms' => explode (',', $faq_params['category'])

);

}

} else {

$query = array(

'numberposts' => -1,

'post_type' => 'hrf_faq'

);

if ($faq_params['category'] != '') {

$query['tax_query'] = array(

array(

'field' => 'slug',

'taxonomy' => 'category',

'terms' => explode (',', $faq_params['category'])

));

}

$faqs = new WP_Query( $query ) ;

if ($faqs) {

while ( $faqs->have_posts() ) : $faqs->the_post();

$ID = get_the_ID();

For more accurate query, it will be easier to introduce others parameters (taxonomy, custom fields (meta), sorting…)..

How to include language in a query with xili-language ?
