This is probably more a question about PHP rather than WordPress, and as such may be closed as off-topic for this site. That said, you can usort() to sort an array using a custom comparison function: usort( $listings->loop[‘cats’], function( $a, $b ){ return strlen( $a->name ) – strlen( $b->name ); } ); After the call … Read more
I found a solution to my question. I used the following code: global $wpdb; if($t_query->have_posts()){ while($t_query->have_posts()){ $t_query->the_post(); echo $wpdb->last_query.”\r\n”; } } and it showed there was an action somewhere hooked to the_post hook, sending requests to update some meta every time a post was processed. So, the answer to my question is: I should have … Read more
Solution found by counting! It counts if there are any posts and if not then skips. <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?> <?php $types = array(‘product’ => 0, ‘post’ => 0, ‘page’ => 0); while ( have_posts() ) { the_post(); if (array_key_exists(get_post_type(), $types)) { $types[get_post_type()]++; } } ?> <?php foreach ($types AS $type => … Read more
This is more of a general PHP question than a WordPress one. Use an array with the county as a key to group up your results. $groups = array(); foreach( $results as $result ) { $groups[$result->county][] = $result; } var_dump or print_r on $groups to see how this groups up your results. You can then … Read more
Yes, using ‘posts_per_page’ => -1 is a bad practice as it loads every matching post from the database, which can mean hundreds, thousands or millions of entries in the worst case. And it looks like you only need post ID’s in your code, not the whole post objects. This means you can slim down the … Read more
You can create new template php file. //Template Name : Single Page Template get_header(); if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); the_content(); the_permalink();//this is for the <a> bunch you are looking for endwhile; endif; get_footer(); Here , you can use “//” or “/** **/” to set the Template name , it … Read more
It is not entirely clear what you are trying to do but sticky posts should be at the top– that is, the first posts displayed– already unless you have made an effort to prevent that. That is the default. I just tested this with your query, changing only the category ID to something that exists … Read more
The Side Eye post is a sticky. See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Sticky_Posts In the Publish meta box (top right of Edit Post page), under Visibility it has “Stick this post to the front page” checked.
When you use “static front page” are you selecting the actual page you want displayed on the home page? It sounds like you want the “Splash” page as the home page. You should create the Splash page in the Page Edit Screen, select a custom page template if that is what you’re wanting to use … Read more
so I turn to you guys to help me see what I am doing wrong here. First thing your doing wrong is over complicating a simple effective API. Your code makes no sense. Your mixing functions that echo output with arbitrary html mark up that gets assigned to a non existing class property that nothing … Read more
