Using 1 taxonomy for multiple post types?

April 6, 20231 Views

I previously declared the taxonomy ” artist ” for a profile post type.

Now i am creating a CD post type and would like to use the same artist list from the profile post type

That is one example if i get a solution i will be using this to share a number of other taxonomies among-st post types 😀

Thanks in Advance.

You can use an array of post types in register_taxonomy()

$object_type (array/string) (required) Name of the object type for the
taxonomy object. Object-types can be built-in Post Type or any Custom
Post Type that may be registered.

Example:
```
register_taxonomy( 'artist', array( 'profile', 'cd' ), $args );
```

You can easily use register_taxonomy_for_object_type() to link existing taxonomies to existing post types.
