I have the file taxonomy-project.php and am trying to view results for some of my terms.
I keep getting a result of NO even though I have a post applied to that particular term.

Reset to default 1I've found the problem, and now I realise I had this exact same problem years ago on a different project:
This:
'exclude_from_search' => true
Needed changing to:
'exclude_from_search' => false
'has_archive' => true,
I don't get why excluding a post type from search should affect archive templates, but at least it's fixed now.
$wp_queryshow? Have you resaved permalinks? – Howdy_McGee ♦ Commented Nov 3, 2020 at 21:03pre_get_posts( checking if it'sis_tax( 'project' )does it then appear? – Howdy_McGee ♦ Commented Nov 3, 2020 at 21:39pre_get_postssorry! – user39214 Commented Nov 3, 2020 at 22:27
