Add Category Titles and their posts within a higher category

[ywoolf]

I’m trying to have a page that will have a list of categories with their related posts.

For example on this one page it will have this:

SOUP
pumpkin barley
pea soup

DESSERTS
chocolate dream cake
peanut butter cookies

Hi @ywoolf,

Thanks for reaching out.
If you want to show the Category Name and the post just under that, you need to follow the below steps.

1. Add a Looper Provider with All Terms and set the Looper Consumer to that.
2. Use {{dc:term:name}} to show the Term Name in the Text element.
3. Add a DIV element under it with the Looper Provider set to Query String and set the Looper Consumer too.
4. The Query String is to show the category_name={{dc:term:name}}
5. And add the The Title element to show the post title.

I went ahead and tested the same and it shows the output.

Thanks

Hi @tristup - thanks this is perfect.

Can you also show me how to exclude a parent category (and all it’s children categories) from this page?

Thank you

Hi @ywoolf,

What you are expecting, is that requires little complex customization with the Looper Provider and the Query Strings. I would suggest you hire a developer who can assist you to do the customization or you can avail of our newly launched service called One, where we answer the questions beyond normal theme support.
Alternatively, you can go through the following thread which may help you with this.

Query String with __not_in

Hi @Regnalf, If you want to exclude and include categories, you need to use the Query String only. I have checked your website and found that the category name KIT is associated with the posts but the 93 category id is associated with any posts. I would suggest you go through the following article on the category parameter of WordPress main query. I would also request you specify where we can find the category 93, for further investigation. Thanks

Thanks
