Yes, this can be done, but it’s quite some work, so I’m only going to give you the outline: First, if you look at the last example under taxonomy parameters of wp_query you will see that you can query post formats as a taxonomy. So you would look at something like this (untested) to get … Read more
I think this question might put you in the right direction. In case that link is broken, here’s the answer as provided by Jon Fabry in that thread. $post_link = get_the_permalink(); if ( preg_match(‘/<a (.+?)>/’, get_the_content(), $match) ) { $link = array(); foreach ( wp_kses_hair($match[1], array(‘http’)) as $attr) { $link[$attr[‘name’]] = $attr[‘value’]; } $post_link = … Read more
This may not be the best answer but for the time being, I’ve been able to get what I want through querying again via a WP_REST_Request using the results I’ve got from the WP_Query mentioned earlier. So the full solution looks like this. function get_blog_posts() { $posts = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘posts_per_page’ … Read more
Now I would suggest to do it with Post Formats. Before there were Post Formats, I made sth similar to what you’re looking to do. Although I am not sure whether it is possible to “grab” You Tube Favorites, others should be possible. I actually integrated a lot of social media feeds using the Feed … Read more
You should be able to exclude posts with a specific format using WP_Query’s tax_query parameter. Eg. $q_args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 1, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_format’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array( ‘post-format-link’ ), ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’ ) ) ); $featured->query( $q_args ); Untested, but should do the trick..
This is because of a variable mismatch. Your function accepts $post_ID, but you don’t actually use it. You’re instead trying to reference a global $post object and doing your post format check with $post->ID. With the XML-RPC request, this won’t work. Rewrite your function to use get_post() to fetch a post object from the passed-in … Read more
I am doing something similar, but for member pages. I was able to use the code in my answer linked here which parses the information in the URL which can be manipulated within WordPress. https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/91399/12920 Here’s a snippet of the URL handling portion which perhaps will get you started? Granted you’re doing something different than … Read more
You have to query post that has no post format attached: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_format’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’, ‘terms’ => get_terms(‘post_format’) ) ) ); To improve performance you can hardcoding the post format instead of using get_terms to retrieve them: $args = … Read more
For those coming here because of the title of the question: If you have a look at Post Formats at the Codex you’ll see that […] New formats cannot be introduced by themes or even plugins. […] Which kills you’re option 2. Also have a look at this: Custom Post Formats For your apparent actual … Read more
This isn’t possible in one query. You can’t set posts per page for individual taxonomy queries. You can either query 12 status or aside posts together: array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 12, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_format’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array( ‘post-format-status’, ‘post-format-aside’ ), ), ), ) Or perform separate queries with get_posts() … Read more
