How to get the other posts on a current post page

I have custom post type called services which have taxonomies named service-categories.

Lets say I have added a taxonomy called A which has posts x,y,z . The single CPT pages must have a sidebar which displays other posts from the category.

For Eg: If we are on the post X page the sidebar needs to display Contents of Y,Z . If we are Post Y page, the sidebar needs ti display Contents of X and Z and so on.

How can this be achieved?

Solution

  • You need to make use of wp_reset_query() - so in your sidebar:

    query_posts('your_query_here');

if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post();

  // Your code

endwhile; endif;

wp_reset_query();

    The function resets the page's query. Check out the wp_reset_query() Codex Page for more info.
