A template is not a page you can load directly. A template is used for the formatting (‘building’) of a ‘page’ (created via Page, Add) or ‘post’ (created via Post, Add). On that page/post editing page, there is a place to specify the template that the WP will use when the page is output. There … Read more
You can hook into template_redirect like this: function custom_template_redirect() { global $wp; if ($wp->query_vars[‘pagename’] == ‘my-page-slug’) { // check the page slug status_header(200); // a 404 code will not be returned in the HTTP headers if the page does not exists include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/test.php”); // include the corresponding template die(); } } add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘custom_template_redirect’ … Read more
I see my name in the title when viewing author pages. wp_title() runs this code during execution.. // If there’s an author if ( is_author() ) { $author = get_queried_object(); $title = $author->display_name; } Perhaps your author(s) don’t have a display name set? Additionally be sure to try disabling plugins that may be hooking a … Read more
You would need to create a page template and query those pages directly. $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘page’, ‘post__in’ => array(430,436,433), //The Page IDs you want to query ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ); $page_query = new WP_Query($args); If you wanted to do this automatically and get the child pages of the current page you could … Read more
if you can use template_redirect hook and a simple function to set the template to use add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘category_set_redirect’ ); function category_set_redirect(){ //create the sets of categories $first_set= array(“1″,”2″,”3″,”4″,”5″,”6”); $second_set= array(“7″,”8″,”9″,”10″,”11″,”12”); if (is_category()){ if (in_array(get_query_var(‘cat’),$first_set)){ include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/first_category.php”); // include the corresponding template die(); } if (in_array(get_query_var(‘cat’),$second_set)){ include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/second_category.php”); // include the corresponding template … Read more
I have got it working by the following code: add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘ft_job_cpt_template’ ); function ft_job_cpt_template() { global $wp, $wp_query; if ( isset( $wp->query_vars[‘post_type’] ) && $wp->query_vars[‘post_type’] == ‘job’ ) { if ( have_posts() ) { add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘ft_job_cpt_template_filter’ ); } else { $wp_query->is_404 = true; } } } function ft_job_cpt_template_filter( $content ) { global $wp_query; … Read more
What about putting styles before the function get_header(); <style type=”text/css”>#header { display: none; }</style> <?php get_header();?> <div class=”main-container-of-my-template”></div> <?php get_footer(); ?> However this is not recommended as it loads the styles even before the <html> not within the <head> section of your website, but as per your requirement this could be the only way to … Read more
Rather than defining them as custom page templates, you have an alternative. Use the page specific templates, e.g. for a profile page, with the slug profile you could create a page-profile.php in your theme, or you can use page-21.php where 21 is the ID of that page/post.
Conditional Tags The is_front_page() Conditional Tag returns true if you’re on the Front Page (index.php as fallback or front-page.php). The is_home() Conditional Tag returns true if you’re on the Front Page, when you got no static page set as front page, or when you got a static front page and display the Posts Page (home.php … Read more
Your problem is that you didn’t wrap it in a callback, but executed it immediately when functions.php was loaded by core. By then the global $wp_query object isn’t initialized fully and the is_category() etc. wrappers can’t deliver what you are expecting them to do. So your if/else checks should be moved inside the callback like … Read more
