Possible to replicate economist.com’s debate section in wordpress? [closed]
That section looks extremely feature-rich and very custom. The possibility of just installing several plugins and getting something like that is pretty much zero (in my opinion). WordPress does have building blocks for such functionality: posts and custom post types for information; comments for discussion; scheduling functionality and calendar-related plugins; plugins for relationships between information; … Read more
Create Advanced search with taxonomies (not filter list)
like other times, after posting here i found my own question. Maybe its not the smarter solution but its working for me.

Try this javascript: jQuery(document).ready( function($) { $(“a.getviews”).click( function() { var td = $(this).parent(); /* only fetch results once */ $(this).unbind(‘click’).bind(‘click’, function(){return false;}); // replace button with loader $(td).html(‘<span class=”loader”></span>’); $.ajax({ type: ‘POST’, url: ajaxurl, data: { action: … Read more
