I want to display latest news/alerts post on my homepage and I need some help.
I am currently only displaying news with post
post-type using below code. This is working perfectly. The problem occurs when I want to use more than one post-type. once I modify as 'post_type' => array('post','blog')
, nothing appears. The reason why it does not show is $term = get_the_category();
. Once I remove this whole section for color with <a></a>
. It works perfectly.
So I believe I have to specify the taxonomies. Because in Post
I have tax as category
and in Blog
I have tax as blog-category
. I could not get these two in same time.
So how can I call two taxonomies in $term = get_the_category();
Thank you from now
