Add class to parent terms. WordPress

Remy answers:

You can use [[LINK href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_term_children"]]get_term_children()[[/LINK]] to check if a term has children, and add a class to it. Here is an example on how to use it


foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
$children = get_term_children ( $term, 'seo_resource_topics' );
if ( !empty( $children ) && !is_wp_error( $children ) ) {
$parent_class = 'class="parent-term"';
}
echo "<li $parent_class><a class=\"scroll\" href=#" . $term->slug . ">" . $term->name . "</a></li>";

}


Here I applied the class to the li element, but you can add it wherever you want.

Fahad Murtaza answers:

Why not use wp_list_categories() where the hierarchical argument is already set (by default) ,


<?php wp_list_categories('taxonomy' => 'your_taxonomy_name'); ?>


Define $args array and use as follow if you want, but above should do the trick for you.


<?php wp_list_categories($args);?>

My code sample using the technique discussed above.



<div class="span3 resourcemenu">

<?php

$args = array(

'taxonomy' => 'seo_resource_topics',
'hierarchical' => true

);

wp_list_categories($args);
?>
</div>


<div class="span9">
<div class="resourcearchive padded">

<?php
$taxonomy = 'seo_resource_topics';

// Gets every "category" (term) in this taxonomy to get the respective posts

$terms = get_terms($taxonomy);

foreach ($terms as $term):
echo '<h3 id="' . $term->slug . '">' . $term->name . '</h3>';

if ($term->parent == 0)
continue;

$resourcequery = new WP_Query(array(

'post_type' => 'seo_resource',

'taxonomy' => $taxonomy,

'term' => $term->slug,

'posts_per_page' => -1

));



if ($resourcequery->have_posts()):
while ($resourcequery->have_posts()):
$resourcequery->the_post();
?>
<article <?php
post_class();
?>>

<header>

<a href="<?php
the_permalink();
?>"><?php
the_title();
?></a>

</header>

<div class="entry-summary">

<?php
the_excerpt();
?>

</div>

</article>

<?php
endwhile;
endif;
endforeach;

?>
