[wp-hackers] Querying posts inside hierarchical custom taxonomy

[Jeremy Clarke]

I'm also unclear about what you're asking.

Assuming you want to get all posts in a given term AND its children,
have you checked that it doesn't already do so when you fetch the
term? For categories it already does so, though maybe not for
hierarchical custom taxonomies. The categories part in in
wp-includes/query.php :

1789    $q['category__in'] = array_merge($q['category__in'],
get_term_children($cat, 'category'));

Maybe that's helpful,
