Tagged: child terms, Taxonomies
Ross.
I have a taxonomy called “tools” with three main categories (nailers, staplers, specialty) and multiple child categories of each. I want to create a check box field that includes one parent category and all children. I know I can do this manually using the “include” option for that taxonomy, but I need it to dynamically add children of a parent category. I want the client to be able to add new child categories without having to worry about changing the search form.
Hi Todd
Sorry for the delay on this – I thought I had replied.
Unfortunately this is not possible – although I will be adding in an option to filter all fields so you could control this yourself at a later date.
Alternatively, you could break each of your top level items into their own taxonomies, this way you would not need to worry about updating the search form.
Thanks
