Hi,
Who does Flex Loop Builder not include filtering option for filtering with custom taxonomy?
Is there any other block that would use a block template, and be able to filter a CPT with a custom taxonomy?
Hi,
The Flex Block Builder is the correct element to use when you want to manually add taxonomy filters for your Custom Post Types. You can see an example here: https://i.imgur.com/C0reStv.png.
The Flex Loop Builder, on the other hand, works similarly to the Flex Loop and Posts Loop elements. When it’s used within Cloud Templates, it will automatically filter results based on the template context. For example:
– on a Category template, it will automatically filter by the current category.
– on an Author template, it will automatically display posts from the current author.
Let me know if you need help deciding which approach is best for your use case.
Thank you!
I would have to add listings of specific custom taxonomy types to a CPT category templates, along with custom taxonomy filterings… But those custom taxonomies filterings would have been needing to be on the bottom of the page.
This didn’t work out so well with Flex Loop Filters module because changing of taxonomy categories reloads the page, which jumps the page to the top (instead of loading new content async via AJAX and updating the URL programmatically).
For now I have created a separate page with those specific custom taxonomy listings.
I understand the way you wanted to work.
I’m glad you were able to find a workaround for it.
