Drop-down Filters Not Showing Up

Hi Dap,

My guess is that you’re using CPT UI and recently updated your plugins.
There was an issue with 1.0.0 and 1.0.1 where taxonomies would loose their connection to the CPT.
Have a look at the support threads over there ??

Unless you’re trying to use WordPress builtin categories which is not yet supported:

Hey Jonathan. Thanks for your reply. I am not using CPT UI. I’m using WCK https://www.ads-software.com/support/view/plugin-reviews/wck-custom-fields-and-custom-post-types-creator

I’ve read the FAQ and nothing there helped me in this situation.

Hey,

Okay. I’ll help you troubleshoot it.

1. Are you using your own custom taxonomies (wordpress builtin wont work)?
2. Have you visited the settings page and setup the plugin to work towards your cpt and not disabled the taxonomies you want to use?

Thanks for you help Jonathan. I decided to move to categories instead of custom taxonomies. You can close this ticket.

Alright so you issue was with using categories rather than taxonomies?

I’m using categories for custom post type and they doesn’t show up in filter.
CPT is hardcoded.

Hi Slams.

First off you should always create a topic of your own ??

But it’s fine for the moment!
This plugin currently does not support any builtin posttypes or categories. There’s more information here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/beautiful-taxonomy-filters/faq/
and here are some other support tickets regarding the subject:
