You can’t specify OR or AND on arbitrary WP_Query arguments. Meta and Taxonomy queries let you specify OR or AND for those queries, but other arguments are all combined (post_type is a property of the post, not meta, so a meta query won’t help).

Simply put, the WordPress template hierarchy reserves home.php for the homepage, but if you set a Front Page post, it will display that instead. If WordPress core developers reserved it for the homepage, I do not believe it would cause issues with any servers, because they would be putting everyone at risk. Hope that explains … Read more
Indeed, get_active_blog_for_user should work. $blog = get_active_blog_for_user( get_current_user_id() ); $blog_url = $blog->domain… /* or $blog->path, together with $blog->siteurl */ Alternatively: $blog_id = get_active_blog_for_user( get_current_user_id() )->blog_id; // note: changed “->userblog_id” to “->blog_id” in row above to make it work. switch_to_blog( $blog_id ); /* switch context */ $home_url = home_url(); restore_current_blog(); /* back */
If you have: register_post_type( ‘my_custom_post_type’, $args ); And you need a custom page to displays all entries from this custom post type, you have to create: archive-my_custom_post_type.php. But if you don’t need a custom page, wordpress will use archive.php to display you custom post type archive. If you only need to customize the entry page, … Read more
For me I’d used a little different approach: use an endpoint to create an url like http://example.com/no-formats/ hooking pre_get_posts to set the proper query if needed filter template_include to force WP to use home.php instead of duplicating it No more. add_action(‘init’, ‘add_no_format_endpoint’); function add_no_format_endpoint() { add_rewrite_endpoint( ‘no-formats’, EP_ROOT ); } add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘handle_no_format’); function handle_no_format( $q … Read more
Use is_front_page() and bail at the start of the function if true: function wpb_last_updated_date( $content ) { if ( is_front_page() ) { return $content; } // Rest of your function }
I would avoid the use of query_posts — it forces another database hit. There are plenty of other ways to hook in and change the query before posts are fetches. pre_get_posts is one of them. To display multiple post types on the home page (pages and posts in this example): <?php add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpse70606_pre_posts’); /** * … Read more

Changing the word count on the home page is easy: if( is_home() ) add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’, create_function( ”, ‘return 300;’ ) ); Just replicate that code and change the conditional check to add this to other pages. The other option is to just insert the code on the template page (home.php, tag.php, etc.), so you know … Read more
