Syntax for requiring multiple categories in post-loop taxonomy

Hello,

We are attempting to set up a post loop where the loop only pulls posts which have all of the specified categories. When just added the taxonomies look like

category:tennis,category:success-stories,category:featured

We have tried these variations without success:

category:sportfit & category:success-stories & category:featured

category:sportfit && category:success-stories && category:featured

category:sportfit and category:success-stories and category:featured

We do find that if we go to trouble of locating category IDs we can specify under Additional like so

‘category__and’ => array(1486,102)

But my editors would be much happier if we could just do the cat look up by name.

Possible?

    Hi Jerry

    Thanks for posting.

    Unfortunately, the Additional field would need to be used for the ‘category__and’ selection. I’ll chat to the team about how we could make this easier in the future. Sorry I don’t have anything to offer at the moment.

    For sure. Sorry, we can’t assist with a solution right away. I’ve raised this with the team and logged an issue on Github now.

    Cheers for now :)
