List categories with Posts (Using custom post types and custom taxonomies)

by Joseph on the 23rd Nov 2015

 

$custom_terms = get_terms('custom_taxonomy');

foreach($custom_terms as $custom_term) {
    wp_reset_query();
    $args = array('post_type' => 'custom_post_type',
        'tax_query' => array(
            array(
                'taxonomy' => 'custom_taxonomy',
                'field' => 'slug',
                'terms' => $custom_term->slug,
            ),
        ),
     );

     $loop = new WP_Query($args);
     if($loop->have_posts()) {
        echo '<h2>'.$custom_term->name.'</h2>';

        while($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post();
            echo '<a href="'.get_permalink().'">'.get_the_title().'</a>';
        endwhile;
     }
}

It took me a few hours to figure this out till I came across the answer listed by GhostToast on the following form http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/66219/list-all-posts-in-custom-post-type-by-taxonomy
