Show count of specific post of a taxonomy

If I understand correctly, you can use the [sbs_tax_posts] shortcode, for example:

[sbs_tax_posts tax="taxonomy" terms="term-1, term-2, term-3" type="custom-post-type"]

This is explained in the plugin documentation, just fyi.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for responding, however it’s not working. I’ve already seen the documentation before I posted my question here.

My taxonomy is principal_author, and the term would be ernesto-jong-isip-jr. Therefore I used [sbs_tax_posts tax=”principal_author” terms=”ernesto-jong-isip-jr” type=”custom-post-type”] and the output is zero. Am I doing it correctly?

The only thing I can think of is that one (or more) of the attribute values are incorrect. So double-check that the taxonomy, terms, and post type slugs/IDs are spelled correctly.

I just want to show my users the stats of what I encircled in the screenshot.

I just used the right tax name, example:

[sbs_tax_posts tax=”principal_author” terms=”benny-fog-t-abante-iii” type=”custom-post-type”] and still returned zero. I can assure that I spelled this correctly.

I understand but am stumped, not sure what else to try. The shortcode is working fine for my tests on default WordPress 6.2. So maybe there is something interfering with normal functionality, could be another plugin or maybe something the theme is doing. Best advice is to do some basic troubleshooting, I would be glad to provide a guide if it will be useful for you.
