   Hi there,

   I have created a custom post type (named project) and a custom taxonomy (named work) to group these projects by medium - 3d design, graphic design, etc.

   On my portfolio index I am trying to get it to list the 3 most recent posts from each custom taxonomy term. Eg. 3 posts from 3d design, 3 posts from graphic design and so on.

   Is there any way I can do this without having to hard-code the terms in?

   So far I use this loop to query all posts from all 'work' taxonomy:

   <?php
   				$loop = new WP_Query( array(
   				'post_type' => 'project',
   				'taxonomy' => 'work',
   				'term' => '',
   				'posts_per_page' => 9
   				) );
   				$postcount = 1;
   				$row = 1;
   
   				while ( $loop->have_posts() ) :  $loop->the_post();
   				echo '<div class="project row-' . $row;
   				if ( $postcount == 1 ) { echo ' first'; }
   				echo '">';
   				if ( $postcount == 3 ) { $row++; $postcount = 0; }
   				$postcount++;
   				?>
   
   				<?php
   					if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) : ?>
   					<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>" >
   					<?php the_post_thumbnail('project-thumb'); ?>
   					</a>
   					<?php endif; ?>
   				<?php the_title( '<h2 class="entry-title"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="' . the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) . '" rel="bookmark">', '</a></h2>' ); ?>
   
   					<div class="entry-content">	
   
   						<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   					</div>
   					</div>
   				<?php endwhile;

   Appreciate any help.. I am trying, but I feel this is above me and I'm not sure where to start.
