Just change the $args array to this: //Let’s say you’re searching the posts with the title ‘The searched post’: $pages = array(); $args1 = array( ‘s’ => ‘The searched post’, ‘post_type’ => ‘course-manager’, ‘posts_per_page’ => -1 ); query_posts( $args1 ); Your query_posts will return all the posts with the title alike ‘The searched post’.
Your original code has a typo – the ampersand is used to separate arguments, so it should be: ‘posts_per_page=10&category_name=” . $post->post_title However, since this is a new query in addition to the default, a new instance of WP_Query should be used instead of query_posts: $args = array( “posts_per_page’ => 10, ‘category_name’ => $post->post_title ); $related … Read more
Firstly, avoid query_posts, instead use WP_Query or hook into pre_get_posts. query_posts is bad practice, a performance hit/slowdown, and a source of many troubles. As a fulltime developer I wouldn’t very strongly recommend against all use of that function, and many prominent WordPress developers and WordPress Core devs would say and do say the same. The … Read more
When you use wp_list_pluck on $terms what you get is an array where the key is the same as the value. If you dump the contents of $term_ids you’ll see something like: array( [42] => 42, [56] => 56 } The code in query.php tries to reference the zero index of the term_ids array, but … Read more
the_views() is not a built in function of WordPress. In fact, WordPress does not, by default, log the number of views of posts. There are probably several plug-ins that exist which add this functionality. The only one I have ever used (and its one I’ve never had any problems with) is WP-Postviews http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-postviews/.
Multiple nested if statements can create a mess you might look into using a switch for this case. Something like: //your $args $the_switch_query = new WP_Query($args); while ( $the_switch_query ->have_posts() ) : $the_switch_query ->the_post(); $query_number = $the_switch_query->current_post + 1; //count them switch ($query_number){ case 1; echo “post one”; break; case 5; echo “post five”; break; … Read more
$args = array( ‘meta_key’ => ‘home_post_id’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘home_post_id’, ‘value’ => 0, ‘compare’ => ‘>’, ‘type’ => ‘numeric’, ) ) ); query_posts($args); Something like this should work but I haven’t tested it .) Let me know if it works.. Reference: WP_Query – Custom Field Parameters
In order to provide more-specific help, we’ll need to know greater detail regarding exactly what’s happening that you don’t expect, or what’s not happening that you expect to happen, or what is happening differently from what you expect. That said, there are at least two things that will likely help you: Use descriptive and unique … Read more
I’ve finally found the solution thanks to a friend of mine: exploiting get_queried_object() we can set the object name in the script as follows: <?php $obj=$wp_query->get_queried_object(); $args=array( ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘areas’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => $obj->name ) ), ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ ); query_posts($args); ?> Hope this can help. Enjoy! 🙂
query_posts will clobber the main query. You’ve overwritten the original set of posts. Don’t use query_posts Instead create a new WP_Query object for your second set of posts, and another Loop. It sounds like what you are trying to do is overly complicated. “Mixing” two queries is not likely to be worth the effort. It … Read more
