To expand upon my comment: Top-level page? (q.1) global $post; $x = get_ancestors( $post->ID, ‘page’ ); if( ! $x ) { // there are no ancestors, therefore this is a top-level page } Childless page? (q.2) global $post; $args = array( ‘post_parent’ => $post->ID, ‘post_type’ => ‘page’, ); $x = get_children( $args ); if( ! … Read more
This is possible, but you can only nest one level down, after that the shortcode regexp parser flips out. So your example would be okay, but [item1] would not be able to contain even more nested shortcodes. To enable nesting, just go ahead and do: add_shortcode(‘data’, function($attributes, $content=””) { return do_shortcode($content); } Relevant article: http://www.sitepoint.com/wordpress-nested-shortcodes/
I found out how to solve this problem, and I hope I can help others in future. My goal was to create an url structure like this: landen/land/rondreizen, with the use of multiple custom post types. ‘landen’ and ‘rondreizen’ are both custom post types. The templating structure should wordpress-like, act like this archive/single/archive. After long … Read more
This is not an optimal answer, but it works well enough for the client to have a page that does what they want. Since I cannot seem to find a function that will do the nested loops as described above, I used a series of query objects, one for each year the client would like … Read more
You should use get_the_categories() Returns an array of objects, one object for each category assigned to the post. This tag may be used outside The Loop by passing a post id as the parameter. $categories = get_the_categories(); var_dump( $categories );
Ok I finally notice what is it that I have to do! 😀 The variable was already set in the array in the shortcode atts. All I had to do was set the parent=$category in the before the filter: $terms = get_terms(‘cat_portfolio’, array(‘hide_empty’=> true, ‘parent’=> $category)); For wordpress developers maybe this is very easy but … Read more

I don’t know why that code didn’t work for you. I copy that code and it work exactly as I expected. You should double check your case, did you unset $args variable before, or you can use another name ($agrs2 for example). Another problem in you question is: if pad_counts doesn’t work, you will get … Read more
Your code should work, it might be that your posts per page option in back end is set to 1. It would be beneficial to explicitely set posts_per_page in your query args. You can also make the code faster if you only need to know the amount of grandchild posts, you can just return the … Read more
Because you are echoing the $childcat->cat_name each time a post passes the validation. Remember that you are inside the loop and for each post that matches your condition your are echoing. You seem to be wanting to print a list of categories that are a child of 19 but I don’t see why you’d go … Read more
