I'm trying to create specific templates based on custom taxonomy subcategory slugs. Custom taxonomy is registered with CPT UI plugin.
An example explaining the problem:
Registered custom taxonomy: Fruits
Fruits has a category: Apples
Apples has a subcategories with slugs: red-apple, green-apple, yellow-apple
My goal is to use specific template for each subcategory: red-apple, green-apple and yellow-apple
What I have tried so far:
I created a files such as
taxonomy-fruits-red-apple.php, taxonomy-apples-red-apple.phpetc - none worked.Used the following code:
function wpd_subcategory_template( $template ) {
$cat = get_queried_object();
if ( isset( $cat ) && $cat->category_parent ) {
$template = locate_template( 'my-template.php' );
}
return $template;
}
add_filter( 'category_template', 'wpd_subcategory_template' );
None of these methods worked.
Any ideas?
Thx in advance!
