Very nice use of taxonomies dude. A lot of people don't realise you can and should use taxonomies for more than just grouping posts into categories or tags.
I was just building an archive for a 'Conferences' CPT. The CPT is hierarchical. The child pages are temporary pages, that we remove and redirect to the parent page after the event is over. I wanted the archive to only display the parent pages. The GP query loop has a way to exclude parent pages, but no corresponding way to exclude child pages. I remembered this video, created a taxonomy for 'hierarchy', tagged all the child pages with a 'child' taxonomy term, and excluded that term from the query loop. Works perfectly, and a super quick, no-code solution to the problem! Thank you 🙂
OMG at 1:47 - that's outta control - that's one mess I wouldn't like to inherit lol - you're a better man than me! And such a tidier, simplified solution you setup with the elements in generatepress and custom taxonomy in ACF.
Soooo much information!!! Love it!!! 💖❤ Yes, I am super interested in you going down that rabbit hole 🐰🕳of how to set up membership/access permission! Thank you so much for explaining all this. I have been playing various games using categories, but since they cross between posts and pages as I have it set up, I was confusing myself. This will fix a lot of my confusions. As others said, "Brilliant!"
I do this too. I just finished a simple membership site with different layout templates based on taxonomies so that post content displays differently for members and non-members.
Look into 'text expander' if you're on Mac / Windows or Expanso if using Linux. I take no credit for this I learned it off watching one of Kyles old vids - it will save you a bucket load of time 👍
I use my WebsiteIpsum.com ipsum, which I have different lengths saved in TextExpander so I can use a keyboard shortcut (.wi1, .wi2, .wi3, etc.) to paste in different lengths of placeholder text. Saves me a tiny bit of time multiple times throughout the day!
So am I understanding correctly that for taxonomy terms, I can use the automatically attached class to target them instead of adding data attributes and targeting those? I guess this would allow for simpler code?
If you are already using ACF, wouldn't it be cleaner to use a dropdown to select the "page hero style" , which prevents the confusion of the "Add new Page Extra" button users may be confused by, also we now need to make sure our taxonomies are not indexed! better yet would be to make a custom ACF block with multiple style types setup on the block, you still have 1 click to change your banner but the user gets a preview in the backend.
Hello Kyle, Im looking for a video you did showing how to create the mobile hamburger menu and i can't seem to find it. Also, another video where you recreated a sports website layout. Please, if you could, re-upload those videos. I appreciate your lessons a lot. Thanks.

Thanks, Dave! I had no idea if you "should" do this - but it's fun, so... send it! 😂
Very helpful video, great as always 👍 Yes, I join the group of those who want to look deeper into the rabbit hole 🐰
Yes, please, into the rabbit hole we go!

Yes, please go on down that membership taxonomy rabbit hole!
Nice one Kyle! 👍Please keep going down the taxonomies rabbit hole.
Thanks, man! I appreaciate your support
Thank you for this tutorial. Please go further with the membership taxonomy rabbit hole.

Yeah, it's a huge headache 😂
Very eye-opening. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful 🙌
Thanks for more cool stuff. Definitely would love to see you digging deeper into this :)

Really glad it was helpful 🙌
This is so cool!
Glad you like it!
Brilliant!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so cool, I might use this on a new site I'm building. Where I have multiple hero designs.
Niiiiice! 💪

Love that! CPTs, Taxonomies, Custom Fields... Those are what makes WP fun for me. I get to feel like a ninja (without any ninja skills!)
Excellent. Thanks. OT: What do you use for website ipsum? (I generate it in VS Code and then copy/paste.)
