Query for getting pages within same category

  • I have added a custom category to my pages: ‘sidekategori’

    I will be using this to group pages together and to show related pages.

    I’m using Elementor for layout and I’ve hit a wall trying to make a query that only includes pages with the same taxonomy ‘sidekategori’ as the current one.

    To use it as a filter in Elementor I have to create it as an action – so far so good. I’ve two other filters running that shows siblings and direct siblings, they’re working fine.

    But I can’t figure out how to filter by this custom category.

    This is my code:

    // Getting same sidekategori of current page
add_action( 'elementor/query/pages_same_cpt_cat_filter', function( $query ) {
	//get ID of current page
	$id = get_queried_object_id();
	// get current taxonomy
	$tax = get_the_terms( $id, 'sidekategori');

	$query->set( 'taxonomy', 'sidekategori');
	$query->set( 'field', 'slug');
	$query->set( 'slug', $tax[0]->slug );
} );

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Took me awhile to wrap my head around, but as always the answer came to me just as I asked the question. Or at least one way to do it:

    // Getting same sidekategori of current page
add_action( 'elementor/query/pages_same_cpt_cat_filter', function( $query ) {
	//get ID of current page
	$id = get_queried_object_id();
	// get current taxonomy
	$tax = get_the_terms( $id, 'sidekategori');

	$tax_query = array(
		array(
			'taxonomy' => 'sidekategori',
			'field' => 'slug',
			'terms' => $tax[0]->slug,
		),
	);

	$query->set( 'tax_query', $tax_query );

} );
