Considering @Mayeenul Islam comment: I’ve just tested in a blank theme with dummy data, search with 0 (zero) fired an empty search – that means all: SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.ID FROM wp_posts WHERE 1=1 AND wp_posts.post_type IN (‘post’, ‘page’, ‘attachment’) AND (wp_posts.post_status=”publish”) ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC LIMIT 0, 10 and the fact that wp-includes/query.php contains if … Read more
If you look ate the source code where stickies are included, we find the following condition before WP_Query carries on to include sticky posts if ( $this->is_home && $page <= 1 && is_array($sticky_posts) && !empty($sticky_posts) && !$q[‘ignore_sticky_posts’] ) { The big game player is the is_home condition. Conditionals inside WP_Query is set according to the … Read more
The Automatic Sponsor Posts Injector: Here’s one idea based on my answer for the question: How to show Y number of custom posts after every X normal posts? I hopefully made it a little bit more useful here on Github, but it may be refined much more (future work). The SponsorPostsInjector class will help you … Read more
Stricktly speaking, you don’t need the loop in single post pages, you only need the call to the_post(). The reason for the_post() is that the_post() sets the $post global value to the single post post object
Yes, the loop and a specific category template should be used even if you want to customize the query. Why?: Even with a custom page, the main query will run. So with a custom page, you are not actually avoiding the main query, you are only replacing it with a different query. The main query … Read more
Easiest way to display single post on front page would be: global $wp_query; $wp_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘p’ => ‘POST ID HERE’ ) ); include( ‘single-POSTTYPE.php’ );
You could do something like : $related_posts_query = new WP_Query( $related_posts_args ); if( $related_posts_query->found_posts < 10 ){ $args = array(/* new wp_query args*/); $newquery = new WP_Query( $args ); } # merge the two results $related_posts_query->posts = array_merge( $related_posts_query->posts, $newquery->posts ); $related_posts_query->post_count = count( $related_posts_query->posts ); # do your loop here
One way is to have a single front-page.php and then using get_template_part(), to show different content based on user choice. Rough code: get_header(); $layout = get_option( ‘front_page_layout’, ‘default’ ); get_template_part( ‘front-page’, $layout ); get_footer(); After that you need to create a file for every layout, they should be called, something like: front-page-one.php front-page-two.php front-page-three.php front-page-default.php … Read more
When I look at WP::handle_404(), I think that the 404.php template will not be loaded, even if there are no posts, if: We are on the homepage It is a search It is a taxonomy term that exists, but has no posts attached to it (and it’s not paged) It is an author that exists, … Read more
assuming you’re using post_class(): add_filter(‘post_class’, function($classes){ global $wp_query; if(($wp_query->current_post + 1) == $wp_query->post_count) $classes[] = ‘last’; return $classes; });
