This is the source of all your problems: <?php if(is_home() && !is_paged()) { ?> <?php query_posts(array(‘post__in’=>get_option(‘sticky_posts’))); ?> This takes the current query, and puts it to one side, and places a new query in its place. Here you’re saying that you want to show the first page of sticky posts. You said nothing about tags … Read more
As already said, your query arguments are slightly off – meta_query should be an array of arrays: $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘category_name’ => ‘events’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘start_date’, ‘value’ => strtotime( ‘today’ ), ‘compare’ => ‘>=’, ‘type’ => ‘UNSIGNED’, // Ensure MySQL treats the value … Read more
@Xroad, here’s the simplest way. Things can get a bit more complicated depending on the specifics, but this is the most straightforward way: $query = get_posts(array(‘post_type’ => ‘lexique’,’posts_per_page’ => -1)); $by_letter = array(); while( $query->have_posts() ) { $query->the_post(); global $post; $letter = substr($post->post_name, 0, 1); if ( ! isset($by_letter[$letter]) ) $by_letter[$letter] = array(); $by_letter[$letter][] = … Read more
It’s highly recommended NOT to use query_posts() function as this can affect a LOT of different things. While this question is especially difficult to answer when you don’t specify how it’s not working and the source of your variables, the better way to formulate this query would be by using the filter entitled ‘pre_get_posts’. Example: … Read more
You must change $paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1; To the following : $paged = (get_query_var(‘page’)) ? get_query_var(‘page’) : 1; There is a difference in page and paged for a static front page, You may find your Answer here : https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#pagination-parameters Keep Posted
Your syntax is wrong, change: query_posts( array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘post’, $include_reviews, $include_screenshots, $include_videos ), ‘paged’ => $paged ) ); to: query_posts( array( ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘category’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array( $include_reviews, $include_screenshots, $include_videos ) )), ‘paged’ => $paged, ‘post_type’ => ‘post’) );
Delete post/page revisions and that will reduce queries as well as the overall size of the DB. Run this in phpmyadmin (backup the DB first): DELETE a,b,c FROM wp_posts a LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships b ON (a.ID = b.object_id) LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta c ON (a.ID = c.post_id) WHERE a.post_type=”revision” Change table prefix above if needed. And … Read more
To pre-populate the post if it’s empty hook the the_editor_content filter — this allows you to check if the post has any content. If not, then you can call the Wikipedia API and pull it in – -this will delay the post editor load, so a simple cache is implemented – depending on your use … Read more
WP_Query supports multiple values for the orderby argument (see the example from that link on the Codex. I don’t know if query_posts() does as well, but I suspect the pre_get_posts filter does, in which case you can replace query_posts() with that (which is the new “best practice” anyway).
so I am thinking your $arg would be: $args = array( ‘numberposts’ => $portfolio_items, ‘order’ => $portfolio_sort, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘post_type’ => array(‘portfolios’), ‘offset’ => $offset, ‘exclude’ => ‘1,2’, ); And that would exclude post 1 and 2. But a better option that you should do, is to just create a featured category for your … Read more
