I’m not away of any expired post status, but you can set the post’s status to draft of trash. First, you need to set up a cron job to run once in a while, and check if the date has come. Finding the proper time is up to you. // Let’s check the scheduled even … Read more
I used this extra query in search.php: $search_string = esc_attr( trim( get_query_var(‘s’) ) ); $wp_user_query = new WP_User_Query( array( ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘relation’ => ‘OR’, array( ‘key’ => ‘first_name’, ‘value’ => $search_string, ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’ ), array( ‘key’ => ‘last_name’, ‘value’ => $search_string, ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’ ) ) ) ); With a custom loop: <?php … Read more
The main culprit is this line $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); As the name “get current user” suggests, it gets you the currently logged in user. That is not what you want. Being in the the_author filter, you can use the global $authordata variable, as the function calling the filter relies on it as well. function add_verification_bagdge_to_authors($display_name) … Read more
Roles and capabilities are used to control access and normally you should use them. For example, capabilities edit_other_posts and edit_published_posts are needed to edit other user’s posts. It’s the same with othe types (pages -> edit_other_pages, edit_published_pages). Since, besides limiting the right to change other user’s posts, you also want them to be invisible, you … Read more
It can be done like this without having to rely on the $post global. if ( is_admin() ) { if( isset( $_GET[‘post’] ) && isset( $_GET[‘action’] ) && $_GET[‘action’] === ‘edit’ ) { $post_id = $_GET[‘post’]; $current_post = get_post($post_id); $author_id = $current_post->post_author; } } The query string variable post is always the post_id you are … Read more
You have added get_current_user_id(); in single quote. please remove quote from ‘get_current_user_id()’;. function get_meta_value_by_meta_key(){ $author_id = get_current_user_id(); // do stuff to get user I $author_posts = get_posts( array(‘author’ => $author_id, ‘numberposts’ => -1 )); // needed to collect the total sum of views $counter = 0; // needed to collect the total sum of views … Read more
Author.php means you are looking at an archive of the author already, so why would you need to display posts by that author? Regardless, you can get the author ID from get_queried_object, which returns the whole user object. <?php $curauth = get_queried_object(); if($curauth && isset($curauth->ID)){ //…trigger ajax to pass ID via the data object } … Read more
Sometimes themes call get_comment_author instead, and bypass the comment_author function. Try using that filter instead.
Have a look here for the solution (code needs optimizing, but it works): Help to condense/optimize some working code
get_the_author_meta() != get_user_meta(). Change to: echo get_the_author_meta(‘address’, $thisauthorID);
