Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Multi-Column Taxonomy List

Yes! To use your custom taxonomy that you have registered with register_taxonomy, simply add the taxonomy=custom_taxonomy_name attribute. I'm not seeing any output with my custom taxonomy If you are having problems seeing any output with your custom taxonomy, it's usually one of two things: You set public => false when you registered the taxonomy. It needs to be true: public => true There are no posts assigned to that taxonomy.

If you want to customize the appearance of the lists using your own CSS, here's how to do it: Add this code to your theme's functions.php file: add_filter( 'mctl_css', '__return_false' ); Copy everything from css/multi-column-taxonomy-list.css into your theme's style.css Change the CSS properties in your theme's style.css as needed

All you need to do is add the following property to the shortcode: alpha_grouping=1
