Grouped taxonomy term query while excluding empty groups WordPress
- SOLVED
Hi all,
I'm having some trouble thinking through a solution for this. I'm running a query to output products tagged within a product category and group them accordingly. This all works fine, with the only issue being that categories without products in them are still showing the group header. (See screenshot - Specialty). The issue is that this loop is actually running on a single post page (within a CPT). Both the page and the products SHARE a taxonomy -- so essentially, it is pulling in matching products (and these are then grouped into a product category) that belong to the same term as the page the user is on. Because of this, terms are not actually empty as far as wordpress is concerned (which is why hide empty has no affect on the query).
Here is the code currently in use:

You can move lines from 13 to 30 of your code, before line 9. Then output the h3 header only if the query has one or more results.

Awesome thank you! Knew it was something that was probably pretty obvious that I was overlooking.

Hello
Please take a look to this

You will can show the terms by post_type

Please check this code
<?php $term_listx = wp_get_post_terms($post->ID, 'odclass', array("fields" => "ids")); ?>
<?php $terms = get_terms( array(
'taxonomy' => 'odprodcat',
'hide_empty' => true,
));
$count = count($terms);
if ( $count > 0 ){
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
$loop = new WP_Query( array(
'post_type' => 'odproducts',
