Select Content From Pages Which Are Linked To Category

[Liam88]

Hi All,

New user over at Processwire and have been rebuilding my site based on this CMS.

I have been able to find so many answers through Google but I'm a little stuck on this one.

I have my services page -> services categories -> category children.

An example of those would be - domain -> services -> ppc -> management

I also have a set of tags which have different names - services-tag -> grow-your-traffic

Under these tags I would have multiple links to pages such as ppc, seo, social media and so on.

A second example would be - services-tag -> convert-your-traffic

Under here i would have multiple links to pages such as CRO

Now the set of tags are not visible on-site as they are only created to give overview content to the main services categories.

Using the categories and the tags I am looking to produce a layout such as (i have also attached an image as an example:

Tag_1 headline

Pull all services categories linking to Tag_1

Tag_1 snippet

Tag_2 headline

Pull all services categories linking to Tag_2

Tag_2 snippet

So far I have this snippet which is pulling in the tag content but unable to get the posts to show under each of the tags. 

If i change the if and statement to "tags" instead of "tag" then all posts show under all tags. Where as i want it to show only the posts which are linked to that tag.

<?php namespace ProcessWire;
	
	$tags = $pages->get("/categories-services/")->children(); // Gets the tags
	$posts = $pages->get("/services/")->children(); // Gets the services categories
	$link = $tags->ref_6; // Gets the tags and services categories link - under here you have pages_id (services cat id) and data (tags id)
	
	// Tag header and summary
	
	foreach($tags as $tag) {
	
		// This breaks down the tags into sections
		
		echo '<section id="services">
			<div class="container">
				<div class="row">
					<h2 class="heading-1"><span>'. $tag->headline.'</span></h2>
					<p class="mb-5">'. $tag->summary.'</p>
				</div>
			<div class="row justify-content-around services">';
			
		// Main services categories that link to the above tags
			
			if ($posts->id === $link->pages_id && $tag->id === $link->data){
			
				foreach($posts as $service){
				
					// This pulls in the services categories under the tag header. 
					
					echo '<div class="card flex-card" id="">
							<div class="card-img">
								<a href="/'. $service->name.'" title="'. $service->name .'">
								<img class="card-img-top" src="../assets/files/'. $service->id.'/'. $service->img_1.'" alt="'. $service->img_1.'" title="'. $service->img_1.'"></a>
							</div>
							<div class="card-body">
								<h3 class="card-title">'. $service->headline.'</h3>
								<p class="card-text">'. $service->summary .'</p>
								<div class="card-action">
									<a href="" title="'. $service->name .'" role="link" class="link">View service<span></span></a>
								</div>
							</div>
						</div>
					';
				}
			}
			
		// Grey snippet text
		
		echo '</div>
			</div>
				</section>
					<div class="snip-2 light-grey">
						<div class="container">
							<div class="row text-center">'. $tag->get('grey') .'</div>
						</div>
					</div>';
	}
?>

I appreciate this is a long post but i'm trying to be clear as I appreciate everyone's time.

Any insight into where I am going wrong is greatly appreciated.

I might miss it but how do you add tags and categories to a page?

If you are using a page field (PageReference) you could just find() them.

foreach( $pages->find("tagFieldName=$tag") as $pageWithMyTag ) {
	// whatever you want
}

Thanks for the reply.

Within the page template I have a ref_6 which selects the tag for that page.

Then the aim is to have tag content which can then be pulled into sections and place the associated posts beneath. 

I did try find yesterday but I'll give that route another go today.

Thanks

Just to say huge thanks and your version worked. Really enjoying learning this CMS!
