The thing to remember about get_posts is that is uses a WP_Query object internally. get_posts source: <?php /** * Retrieve list of latest posts or posts matching criteria. * * The defaults are as follows: * ‘numberposts’ – Default is 5. Total number of posts to retrieve. * ‘offset’ – Default is 0. See {@link … Read more
Just use WP_Query() to generate your custom query, using the category parameters. Assuming you know (or know how to get) the ID of the specific category, as $catid: <?php $category_query_args = array( ‘cat’ => $catid ); $category_query = new WP_Query( $category_query_args ); ?> Note: you could also pass the category slug to the query, via … Read more
Make your single.php the following: <?php $post = $wp_query->post; if ( in_category( ‘work’ ) ) { include( TEMPLATEPATH.’/single-work-cat.php’ ); } else { include( TEMPLATEPATH.’/single-generic.php’ ); } ?> and make single-work-cat.php the template you wish to show for single work category posts, and single-generic.php the one you wish to show in all other cases.

If you want to prevent a user with the “Author” role to view other users’ posts in the overview screen (they won’t be able to view the details anyway), you can add an extra filter on the author: add_action( ‘load-edit.php’, ‘wpse14230_load_edit’ ); function wpse14230_load_edit() { add_action( ‘request’, ‘wpse14230_request’ ); } function wpse14230_request( $query_vars ) { … Read more
If you poke through WP_Query the set of queried posts is saved into posts property and current post gets assigned to post one (each time loop iterates). So you could do $connected->posts[0] if you need to just fetch that, but it might be more convenient to do $connected->the_post(); then $connected->post if you need to skip … Read more
Are you sure you need this specific function? Documentation (both Codex and inline) is verrry confusing. And it supposedly fetches things like attachments, which probably aren’t relevant for navigation… Try this: get_posts( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘page’, ‘post_parent’ => $parent->ID, ‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’ ) );
If I remember right count of posts in category is stored persistently in category object. So use get_category() or variation of it and fetch the number out of object. Example code (not tested): $category = get_category($id); $count = $category->category_count; if( $count > $something ) { // stuff }
function change_post_titles() { global $post, $title, $action, $current_screen; $title = “foo<br>bar”; $title = str_replace(‘<br>’, ‘ ‘, $title); } add_action(‘admin_head’, ‘change_post_titles’); Use this this will give the result you want. Please check it let me know for any doubts.
I don’t know what content you want to insert in your archive page, but you can always use the file “archive-friends.php” as you can see in the Template Hierarchy to loop your “friends” post type. Then, to customize the SEO, I recommend you the plugin WordPress SEO by Yoast because it has a strong compatibility … Read more
