    Hello! I love the plugin! But, I’m a bit confused as to how to use the taxonomy parameter on a loop. Here’s how I’m approaching it:

    [loop type="listing" taxonomy="property-type" value="commercial"]

[content field="title"]

[content field="thumbnail"]

[content field="author"]

[/loop]

    Am i missing something?

    Actually, I have figured this out!

    I was filtering by the wrong taxonomy; because the theme was using custom taxonomies, I couldn’t be sure what slug/name to enter.. I solved this by using the Ultimate Taxonomy Manager Plugin to figure out the correct slug. Thanks for the great plugin!

    Yes, when the parameter is not set right, there are no errors – so it might be hard to track down the reason why it doesn’t display what you intended.

    Regarding taxonomy slugs, that gives me an idea to add in the reference section a dynamic list of available post types, categories, taxonomies, and custom fields. Could be useful.

    Yes.. very much so. I spend a few minutes just trying to figure things out.. In fact.. I’m doing that now! Would be nice to list content field as well! Beautiful plugin my friend. Very nice!
