You’re using non-existent variables in your function, $post_id, $post, $page. Use get_queried_object to get data from the current page. if( is_single() || is_page() ){ $this_page = get_queried_object(); $excerpt = get_post_field( ‘post_excerpt’, $this_page->ID ); }
Here’s what you can do. At the top of your page, run your first WP_Query. Calculate the number of posts you need for your secondary query by using the number of posts IN query cat_a divided by 3 and using PHP floor() to drop any remainder. This will ensure that your second query only has … Read more
I’ve found the solution. According to https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_content#Overriding_Archive.2FSingle_Page_Behavior, one must add global $more; $more = 0; before the call to the_content(). So now my inner loop reads: <?php $recent_posts_query = new WP_Query(array(‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 5)); while ($recent_posts_query->have_posts()) { $recent_posts_query->the_post(); ?> <div class=”post”> <h3><?php echo the_title(); ?></h3> <p>by <?php the_author(); ?></p> <?php global $more; $more … Read more
You don’t need a custom query to include CPTs in homepage posts in normal cases. Just use pre_get_posts. function wpse215208_include_all_cpt( $query ) { if ( is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) { $query->set(‘post_type’, array( ‘post’, ‘photo’, ‘video’, ‘web’ ) ); } } add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpse215208_include_all_cpt’);
It is quite hard to understand what you need to do here, but you need to look at the following Do not use the global variables as local variables, it breaks the global variables and causes issues with the loop. It is also quite hard to debug when you run into issues. The only global … Read more
There is no $post var local to your function, you need to use global $post first, or get_the_ID(). get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘_cf_address’, true );
I found an older post showing what I was missing from my code, so it seems like I didn’t do a good enough search to begin with. For anyone wondering I was missing ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’ from the query, so the code would look like this: $args_post = array(‘post_type’ => ‘release’, ‘orderby’ => ‘_custom’, ‘order’ … Read more
You want to rethink this code… to begin with, as the number of entries grow, looping them all is a bad idea. Consider adding a meta_query argument to the WP_Query so you are not looping through every single entry in the future, but limiting the database retrieval instead. Mainly you want to get rid of … Read more
Using a variable will make your code a little less repetitive: $case_history_code = get_field( ‘case-history-code’ ); if ( $case_history_code ) { // make the code lowercase $case_history_code_lower = strtolower( $case_history_code ); // use the lowercase inside of `get_posts` $myposts = get_posts( ‘numberposts=3&offset=0&category_name=” . $case_history_code_lower ); foreach ($myposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?> <a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/220489/<?php the_permalink(); … Read more
You can use current_user_can() and is_user_logged_in() to validate current user: <?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can(‘role’) ) : ?> <span style=”font-size:16px”> <strong>Currently reading:</strong> <?php the_field(‘book_name’); ?> (<?php the_field(‘book_year’); ?>)<br/> <strong>Currently seeing:</strong> <?php the_field(‘movie_name’); ?>”><br/> </span> <?php endif; ?> Make sure to change role to your preference and take a look at Codex for more info.
