perch_blog_post_categories() not working with multiple category sets
I have two category sets: 'Family' and 'Type' and I want to list post categories only from the 'Family' set. How can I do that? Right now I have the following code and nothing gets listed, as if there were no categories on the post.
post.php
— displays a single post:
<?php
include('../global.includes.php'); ?>
<div class="o-list-inline c-card-holder">
<?php
// perch_blog_post(perch_get('s'));
perch_blog_custom([
'filter' => '_id',
'value' => perch_get('id'),
'data' => [
'singlePost' => 'yes',
],
]); ?>
</div>
<div class="c-card-meta c-card-meta--single">
<?php perch_blog_author_for_post(perch_get('id'), [
'template' => 'author.html',
]); ?>
<div class="cats">
<?php perch_blog_post_categories(perch_get('id'); ?>
</div>
<div class="tags">
<?php perch_blog_post_tags(perch_get('id')); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php perch_layout('global.bottom'); ?>
post.html
— post template:

Thank you!
perch_blog_post_categories()
works with the defaultBlog
category set that Blog uses. If you have multiple category sets, use the standardperch_categories()
functions and filtering.Oh I see. But I still don't know how to filter to show only categories applied to a post.
I'm doing this but —unsurprisingly— is not working.
How should I set the filter?
You can use the
<perch:categories>
tags in the post template to do this.This tag is correct I think one tag is missing. By the way, if you are QuickBooks user then try to visit Quickbooks online support and get the best support from them for more detail visit at https://247quickbooks.us/quickbooks-support/
Thanks Drew!
