The code below can be used to get the post types for a taxonomy in WordPress. This is useful if you know the taxonomy and want to get the post types associated with it.
| <?php | |
| /** | |
| * Get all post types for a taxonomy. | |
| * | |
| * @author Kellen Mace | |
| * @param string $taxonomy The taxonomy slug to get post types for. | |
| * @return array The post types associated with $taxonomy. | |
| */ | |
| function wds_campbell_get_post_types_by_taxonomy( $taxonomy = '' ) { | |
| global $wp_taxonomies; | |
| if ( isset( $wp_taxonomies[ $taxonomy ] ) ) { | |
| return $wp_taxonomies[ $taxonomy ]->object_type; | |
| } | |
| return array(); | |
| } |
To do the opposite of this (get the taxonomies for a post type), see get_object_taxonomies().
