    Hello!

    I have some Custom Post Types with custom taxonomies. I’m trying to build a query for two of the taxonomies… to filter Location (tax) results by Job Title (tax). I am at a loss why I can’t get the basic query to even begin. Do you see what’s wrong??

    Thanks in advance!

    
 <?php 

	$args = array(
		'relation' => 'AND',
		array(
			'taxonomy' => 'location',
			'field'    => 'slug',
			'terms'    => 'Denver',
		),
		array(
			'taxonomy' => 'job_title',
			'field'    => 'slug',
			'terms'    => 'photographer',
		),
	);

    echo "line after args declaration....<br>";
    
    
    
	// Custom query.
    $query = new WP_Query( $args );
    
    echo "line after query declaration....<br>";
    
    
     
    // Check that we have query results.
    if ( $query-> have_posts() ) {
     
        // Start looping over the query results.
        while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
     
            $query->the_post();
     
            echo "Success <br>";
     
        }
     
    } else {
        echo "FAIL <br>";
    };
    
    echo "End of line";
     
    // Restore original post data.
   wp_reset_postdata();
 
?>

    Take a look at documentation for taxonomy parameters in WP_Query:

    https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#taxonomy-parameters

    For example displaying posts from several taxonomies:

    
$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'tax_query' => array(
        'relation' => 'AND',
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'movie_genre',
            'field'    => 'slug',
            'terms'    => array( 'action', 'comedy' ),
        ),
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'actor',
            'field'    => 'term_id',
            'terms'    => array( 103, 115, 206 ),
            'operator' => 'NOT IN',
        ),
    ),
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args );

    Looking at your code example, it does not seem to use tax_query parameter.
