Good evening everyone, I have a CPT where each post has its child, when listing this with Wp_query, on the page is shown all posts (father and son), but I want to show only the posts 'father', how can I do this?

Thank you very much!

follows the code used: 

 <!-- primeiro Loop -->
      <?php
       $args = array(
           'post_type' => 'novellist'                
       );
       $novels = new WP_Query( $args );

       if( $novels->have_posts() ):
          while( $novels->have_posts() ): $novels->the_post();
       ?>
       <!-- Post -->
       <div class="col-12 post1">
           <?php get_template_part('template_parts/content', 'archive-novel'); ?>
       </div>
       <!-- End Post -->
       <?php
            endwhile;
            wp_reset_postdata();

    In the title you say post dad, in the body of the question you say * category father and daughter*. Who has children is the CPT or the category? They’re very different things.

  • I apologize for the mistake, I have a CPT called 'Novels List" and I have a taxomany called 'Novels' attached to the CPT. No CPT tenho o post pai (receiving the parent category) e o post filho( que recebe a categoria filho). I edited the post including

For this, you can use the parameter post_parent. When a post has "0" as Parent, it means it has no father, so it is not post son.

 $args = array(
   'post_type' => 'novellist',
   'post_parent' => 0    
 );

  • I think I did something wrong, all the posts are gone when I use this argument

  • I apologize for my mistake, I ended up confusing the taxomanias with the posts, thank you very much for the help!
