Found this useful thread on displaying a category filter on a custom post type in wordpress. Here’s the code:
add_action( 'restrict_manage_posts', 'my_restrict_manage_posts' ); function my_restrict_manage_posts() { global $typenow; $taxonomy = 'your_custom_taxonomy_name'; if( $typenow != "page" && $typenow != "post" ){ $filters = array($taxonomy); foreach ($filters as $tax_slug) { $tax_obj = get_taxonomy($tax_slug); $tax_name = $tax_obj->labels->name; $terms = get_terms($tax_slug); echo "<select name='$tax_slug' id='$tax_slug' class='postform'>"; echo "<option value=''>Show All $tax_name</option>"; foreach ($terms as $term) { echo '<option value='. $term->slug, $_GET[$tax_slug] == $term->slug ? ' selected="selected"' : '','>' . $term->name .' (' . $term->count .')</option>'; } echo "</select>"; } } } |
