I don’t know what’s greater: the speed at which you replied or my embarrassment for such a silly mistake ha ha…

Thanks for that, however the issue still persists after correction:

add_filter('piklist_taxonomies', 'package_type_tax');
function package_type_tax($taxonomies) {

Not sure what else I’m doing wrong?

Drats, no luck… I’ve tried 'post_type' => 'post', checked Screen Options, nothing is showing in my cpt or in the default posts screen. Really stumped on this one!

It’s in /wp-content/plugins/custom-pklist/custom.php. This is the full file:

Hi there Steve,

Thanks so much for your assistance. I discovered that I still needed to add the following to my parts file:

piklist('field', array(
  'type' => 'select'
  ,'scope' => 'taxonomy'
  ,'field' => 'category'
  ,'label' => 'Categories'
  ,'description' => 'Terms will appear when they are added to this taxonomy.'
  ,'choices' => array(
      '' => 'Choose Term'
    )
    + piklist(get_terms(array(
      'taxonomy' => 'package_type'
      ,'hide_empty' => false
    ))
    ,array(
      'term_id'
      ,'name'
    )
  )
));

I was expecting the taxonomy section to show up in the right sidebar, which was what threw me off. It’s all working correctly now though 🙂

Thanks so much again for your help, it’s greatly appreciated!!

Ah ok! 🙂 I see it’s showing up now in the sidebar – yesss!! What is the difference though with that, and then adding them as I did in the previous post (piklist(‘field’, array(‘type’ => ‘select’…)? I see if I add a duplicate taxonomy to the taxonomy field in the right sidebar, it doesn’t reflect in the taxonomy selection in the Piklist main section – although I’d think they’d be the same thing?…I’ll add a picture to explain what I mean:

Sorry if that’s a silly question, just trying to understand how this all fits together.

Ah, ok! Yes, I see how that could be very useful – especially if combining with something like Chosen. Piklist is really such a good addition to WordPress, really keen to learn about everything it can do 🙂

Thanks once again for your absolute stellar support!!!

Have a fantastic week 🙂
