 Hi,

 It seems that you cannot use a custom post type's category as a filter
 during a WP Query, see here:


 {{{
 <?php
 $the_query = new
 WP_Query('cat=4&taxonomy=product_categories&posts_per_page=-1&post_type=products&status=publish'
 );

                                                 if (
 $the_query->have_posts() ) {
                                                         echo '<ul>';
                                                         while (
 $the_query->have_posts() ) {
 $the_query->the_post(); ?>
                                                                 <?php
 $queried_objects = get_the_terms($post->ID, 'product_category');
                                                                 foreach (
 $queried_objects as $queried_object ) {
 $current_term = $queried_object->term_id;
                                                                 }
                                                                 ?>
 }}}

 Whenever a category ID is placed in to the query, no results will be
 returned, even though there are items in there.
