To add a few additional filters in my catalogue (now it has only one atribute as you can see) 2. To connect goods from different categories by using function“ related goods”. (For example, goods from taxonomy “Category” shows as “related goods” goods from taxonomy “Color” in and vice versa) * And maybe you have instruction how have I code it? - This reply was modified 7 years, 3 months ago by [vadim11111](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vadim11111/). * Thread Starter [vadim11111](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vadim11111/) * (@vadim11111) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-custom-taxonomy-2/#post-10997055) * Can anybody help me please? * Plugin Author [ndre](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ndre/) * (@ndre) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-custom-taxonomy-2/#post-10998954) * Hello [@vadim11111](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vadim11111/), * It would be to much coding for a forum post. However I will try to guide you. * The easy way: * 1. To filter the attributes you can use the attributes extension that you can find in catalog extensions menu. * 2. To show products in related categories you can simply assign products to the same categories. It will display products from the same category in the related products section. Or maybe there is a particular reason for a different taxonomy? * The hard way: You can create your custom taxonomies as described here: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies](https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies) * After that you can use the custom template files to display your custom related goods section. The codex also shows [how to query by taxonomy](https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies#Querying_by_taxonomy). You can read [here](https://implecode.com/docs/ecommerce-product-catalog/product-page-template/) about custom templates, also Product Page Customizer extension would be helpful with the templates. * Thread Starter [vadim11111](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vadim11111/) * (@vadim11111) * [7 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-custom-taxonomy-2/#post-11001063) * Hello [@ndre](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ndre/) * Thank You for help. I just tried to make it in hard way, but understand that I don’t have enough knoledge for it.
