You could use usort(). Your callback function would need to determine the last names and sort by them. So, for instance: $args = array( ‘post_type’ = ‘Employees’, ); $employees = get_posts( $args ); usort( $employees, ‘wp91501_sort_employees’ ); and then your callback might be: function wp91501_sort_employees( $a, $b ) { // split the names into arrays … Read more
First, exclude the featured image (= post thumbnail) from the query, then set up the posts array as combination of the featured image and the other images. Put this directly below $args = … and above $attachments = …: if (has_post_thumbnail($post->ID)) { $featured_image = get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID); $args[‘exclude’] = $featured_image; $attachments = array(get_post($featured_image)) + get_posts($args); } else

All you need to do is create an array, which is what you want, and skip the string completely. function post_page_options(){ $post_page_options = get_posts(‘category=orderby=title&order=asc&numberposts=”); foreach( $post_page_options as $value ) : $str[$value->ID] = $value->post_title; endforeach; return $str; }
Here’s a sample code to get you started – basically it intercepts the creation of a new post by the user-submitted posts plugin(well at least it tries to, but in general there shouldn’t be any other posts created during that request). If a post with that name already exists, we add the content as a … Read more

get_posts() has some defaults set, including numberposts equal to 5. Since it’s not considered to be a loop by itself those are independent and not affected by admin settings.
