Okay.Ornothischian dinousaurs had bird-like hips - that is, both the ischium and pubis pointed backwards, like birds hips do. These dinosaurs were smaller herbivores.Saurischian dinosaurs had lizard-like hips - the pubis pointed forwards, and the ischium pointed backwards.

Is a caudipteryx a lizard hipped dinosaur or a bird hippedd?

Caudipteryx belonged to the Saurischia ("lizard hipped"). But remember: so do birds. Birds have their pubes pointing backwards, just like the Ornithischia ("bird hipped") but they weren't onithischians themselves. So you can be a saurischian whatever the position of your pubes. As it happened Caudipteryx had forward pointing pubes, as typical for Saurischia - but it is not a decisive feature.
