Hoping some one can help me. I have 3 categories used as menus. They function giving the sense of three separate blogs on one parent blog. Is there a way when I search on a specific tag (which may be associated to multiple categories), to have the returned results separated by category? Or, if I’m in a certain category, to have, when clicking a tag, the results just show me the tag related to the specific category? Thanks very much.
i think the simple way is using a function which will display a tags to related category of your choice… :
function get_category_tags($args) {
global $wpdb;
$tags = $wpdb->get_results
("
SELECT DISTINCT terms2.term_id as tag_id, terms2.name as tag_name, null as tag_link
FROM
wp_posts as p1
LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships as r1 ON p1.ID = r1.object_ID
LEFT JOIN wp_term_taxonomy as t1 ON r1.term_taxonomy_id = t1.term_taxonomy_id
LEFT JOIN wp_terms as terms1 ON t1.term_id = terms1.term_id,
wp_posts as p2
LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships as r2 ON p2.ID = r2.object_ID
LEFT JOIN wp_term_taxonomy as t2 ON r2.term_taxonomy_id = t2.term_taxonomy_id
LEFT JOIN wp_terms as terms2 ON t2.term_id = terms2.term_id
WHERE
t1.taxonomy = 'category' AND p1.post_status = 'publish' AND terms1.term_id IN (".$args['categories'].") AND
t2.taxonomy = 'post_tag' AND p2.post_status = 'publish'
AND p1.ID = p2.ID
ORDER by tag_name
");
$count = 0;
foreach ($tags as $tag) {
$tags[$count]->tag_link = get_tag_link($tag->tag_id);
$count++;
}
return $tags;
