All Posts are shown even when querying only a certain post taxonomy

  • Hi! Can someone tell me what’s wrong with my code? I’m trying to call posts that belong to a certain post taxonomy only but all the other posts are displayed:

    <?php $args = array(
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'post_taxomony',
'field' => 'id',
'terms' => '7'
)
)
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="testimonialImg"><div class="testimonialImgBorder">
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
the_post_thumbnail( array(100,100) );
	}
?></div></div>
<div class="testimonialTxt"><?php the_content(); ?></div>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('No posts found.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

    Thanks! ??

    Try changing this:

    $query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

    to this:

    query_posts( $args ); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

    Thank you so much! That worked! Do you happen to know what should be the right code if I want to call up pages in a certain page taxonomy? I originally wanted this to be a page taxonomy but instead of the pages, the posts show up so I decided to make it a post taxonomy instead. Thanks. ??

    By default Pages don’t have categories or tags so I don’t know what you want. maybe this: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/get_pages
