To get the number of posts you can do it easily without a second query with $adsQuery->post_count; But if there’s some reason (I’d love to know the context!) I can’t grasp that the same query has to be run twice and to the database directly- to answer your question as to why it’s not working: … Read more
You shouldn’t be using custom queries in these templates. The main query (using have_posts();, the_post(); etc. without $loop) is already set up with the correct posts for these templates. Look at the custom query you’re using on the single template: $args = array(‘post_type’ => ‘journal’, ‘showposts’ => 1, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ … Read more
This function use the get_the_posts_navigation() to change the text Older posts and Newer posts you can pass array with the args. See this example with the default values: the_posts_navigation( array( ‘prev_text’ => __(‘Older posts’, ‘theme_textdomain’), ‘next_text’ => __(‘Newer posts’, ‘theme_textdomain’), ‘screen_reader_text’ => __(‘Posts navigation’, ‘theme_textdomain’) ) );
I noticed that siteurl.com/series does not work I get my 404 page This is the correct behaviour. There is no content to display at this URL in WordPress. You need to provide a specific term so that WordPress can retrieve posts with that term. Notice that in a fresh install of WordPress siteurl.com/category/ returns a … Read more
(Revised to improve the wording) Actually, you do not have to set the orderby to post__in for post__in query to work. There’s no such limitation in WordPress and you’d only need to set ‘orderby’ => ‘post__in’ when you want to sort the posts exactly in the same order as the post IDs in the post__in … Read more
I believe you can filter them out in your original WP_Query using Taxonomy Parameters. Then you can delete the for loop altogether. $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘posts_per_page’ =>-1, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_tag’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array(‘fun’,’learning’), ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’, ), ), ); $wpb_all_query = new WP_Query( $args … Read more
Yes, grab the value via get_post_meta, then it’s just a matter of generic PHP loops and string manipulation. Try using the explode function with \n as the separator to create an array you can loop through. You may need to check for empty values since some of your lines are blank, but the get_post_meta part … Read more
Turns out I didn’t follow the instructions in the manual to the letter: I seem to have declared global $post too early. I don’t entirely see through this but it works fine now using this code: $eventsPosts = $wpdb->get_results($querystr, OBJECT); if ($eventsPosts) { global $post; foreach ($eventsPosts as $post) { setup_postdata($post); the_title(); // or whatever … Read more
You’re using query_posts() for your featured-post custom loop. As the Codex says: don’t do that. The query_posts() function is intended to modify the Primary Loop. If you need a custom loop, use e.g. $my_custom_query = new WP_Query( $args ). See here for a good break-down of custom-loop options.
check in your loop that it’s the end of a group of 6 AND the current post isn’t the last post. change: <?php if ($count % 6 == 0){ ?> to: <?php if ($count % 6 == 0 && $count != $our_work1->post_count ){ ?>
