Your PHP is wrong but what you are doing looks like it should work. $count = $wpdb->get_var( ‘SELECT COUNT(distinct comment_author) FROM ‘ .$wpdb->comments. ‘ WHERE comment_approved = 1 AND comment_post_ID = ‘.$post->ID ); echo $count; Precisely, you were trying to use a variable inside single quotes, which doesn’t work. Variables don’t expand inside single quotes. … Read more
As i see your code in header.php and index.php looking messy (because of many if conditions). If i’m understanding your problem then i do it like this create separate author.php for both authors their name like author-cait.php and author-shannons.php Give link like http://www.yousite.com/author/cait/ to button on static landing page.When user click on this,it takes him … Read more
In my theme with raw codes, Post Meta Data are shown like: <div class=”entry-meta”> <span class=”meta-prep meta-prep-author”><?php _e(‘By ‘, ‘your-theme’); ?></span> <span class=”author vcard”><a class=”url fn n” href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/110649/<?php echo get_author_posts_url( false, $authordata->ID, $authordata->user_nicename ); ?>” title=”<?php printf( __( ‘View all posts by %s’, ‘your-theme’ ), $authordata->display_name ); ?>”><?php the_author(); ?></a></span> </div><!– .entry-meta –> It displays … Read more
You don’t say how you have set up the different adsense. I will assume that in your template there is a folder, called ‘authors-ads’, in it you have some php files, named after your authors ids, e.g.: /authors-ads/author-1.php /authors-ads/author-12.php and so on. after that in your single.php or whatever template you use to display posts … Read more
Have you tried to specify the $userID parameter of get_the_author_meta(), like shown below: echo get_avatar(get_the_author_meta( ‘ID’, $post->post_author ), 150); This uses the post_author key from your secondary query, which has the ID as value, that said you should be able to shorten your code to: echo get_avatar( $post->post_author, 150);
Building URLs to WP resources in this fashion is fragile and shouldn’t be done. You should use appropriate API function to generate the links, in this case probably get_author_posts_url().
You need to move the bulk of your code into the loop proper. This part: $my_query = new WP_Query($args); if( $my_query->have_posts() ) { while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); $ids[]= $post->ID; endwhile; } When the_post() executes, it populates the $post global upon which a number of template functions depend. The problem is that you are running your … Read more
Use get_users function it allows you to query user by role. For contributors, $contributors = get_users(‘role=contributors’); foreach($contributors as $contributors){ // do something with contributors } For Admins, $admins = get_users(‘role=admin’); foreach($admins as $admins){ // do something with admins } replace role=* with your desired roles.
Check if a user is logged in using is_logged_in. If a user is logged in modify the query using pre_get_posts filtering posts by the current author ID. if ( is_user_logged_in() ) : function filter_posts_by_author( $query ) { global $current_user; get_currentuserinfo(); $query->set( ‘author’, $current_user->ID ); } add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘filter_posts_by_author’ ); // … loop else : echo … Read more
Display author’s avatar and name in single page sidebar. Add this code in sidebar.php or single.php if ( is_singular( ‘post’ ) ) { echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( ‘user_email’ ), 75 ); echo get_the_author_meta( ‘display_name’ ); } Here 75 number is the avatar size. I hope it will help you.
