   I have registered a custom post type of 'directory' and in my loop i have something like this:

   <?php if ( in_category( _x('gallery', 'gallery category slug') ) ) : ?>
   
       XXX - this is what i expect for gallery posts
   
   <?php elseif ( $post_type = 'directory' ) : ?>
   
   	YYY - this is what i expect for directory (custom) posts
   
   <?php else : ?>
   
   	ZZZ - this is what i expect for regular posts
   
   <?php endif;  ?>

   however, even thou a regular post is not $post_type = 'directory' I'm getting YYY - this is what i expect for directory (custom) posts when I'm expecting ZZZ - this is what i expect for regular posts

   help! (please)

   this was solved on trac

   Looks like you are always setting your $post_type = 'directory'; To do a check you would need to use == rather than =.

   Check the code below, it should do the trick.
   

   <?php if ( in_category( _x('gallery', 'gallery category slug') ) ) : ?>
   
       XXX - this is what i expect for gallery posts
   
   <?php elseif ( $post_type == 'directory' ) : ?>
   
   	YYY - this is what i expect for directory (custom) posts
   
   <?php else : ?>
   
   	ZZZ - this is what i expect for regular posts
   
   <?php endif;  ?>
