If I get it right you are storing this data in user meta. WP_Query would have no remote idea how to retrieve that, since it’s only aware of post meta. The two are completely separate and there is no native way to involve one in queries for another. Likely you will have to do this … Read more
You’re doing something like this tutorial on categorizing wordpress users, correct? I think you should do your filtering in your theme files, not on a hook. Just add an if statement to your template file (probably author.php) that tests if your custom fields aren’t empty strings, and then do whatever (404, redirect elsewhere, throw a … Read more
Solved I’ve solved the problem and I’m going to share the code I used, so other developers that have this issue too can cope with it. The get_pages()-function accepts the “hierarchical” argument. By default it’s set to 1 (true), which means, that WordPress searches the pages in hierarchical order to find the other parameters. If … Read more
the_author_posts_link() points precisely to your author.php template, and it’s normally used in posts (inside the loop). So to get the author’s posts list, you have two options: 1) Show the author posts in the same author.php template, simply using the normal loop (because this is just the query loaded in this template). By the way, … Read more
You can use the function get_the_author_meta() to get the emailaddress of the author of the current post and the wp_mail()function to send an e-mail <?php $timelimit=1 * 604800; //1 week * seconds per day $post_age = date(‘U’) – get_post_time(‘U’); if ($post_age < $timelimit) : ?> // Current <?php elseif ($post_age > $timelimit) : $email = … Read more
If I am understanding correctly, you want to show only own postings to an user (in the back-end) I would do it with a seperate function as shown below. By changing the capability you can decide which users can see all post and which not. In the function below contributors can’t see other users post … Read more
You cannot make gravatars work offline (they completely rely on remote service), but you can get rid of erorrs and slowdown when offline by overriding them. You can use get_avatar filter for it. There is an Airplane Mode plugin for offline WP dev that does this (among other things). You can use that or just … Read more
Oddly, perhaps, there is no get_user_role function, so not surprising that the earlier answer produced an error. As per my discussion with Rodney Hawk, I still wonder about the point of this exercise – or what security function this operation serves that wouldn’t be better served by other methods – but, if the preferred objective … Read more
Never, never re-query a native archive – use the pre_get_posts hook to alter the main query: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, function ( $wp_query ) { if ( $wp_query->is_main_query() && $wp_query->is_author() ) { $paged = max( 1, ( int ) $wp_query->get( ‘paged’ ) ); if ( $paged === 1 ) { $wp_query->set( ‘posts_per_page’, 10 ); } else { … Read more
If you know the data of the author, you can wrap that box with an if and the function get_the_author if( get_the_author() == “name_of_the_author” ){ // Don’t do it }else{ // Print box } EDIT with the final answer updated: <?php echo $td_mod_single->get_social_sharing_bottom();?> <?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?> <?php $user = get_user_by(“login”, “pknn”); // user object // … Read more
