You can try to fetch posts, that don’t have a featured image, with: $ppp = 5; // posts per page /** * Fetch $ppp posts, without thumbnails, in a given category: */ $args = array( ‘cat’ => 1, ‘posts_per_page’ => $ppp, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘_thumbnail_id’, ‘compare’ => ‘NOT EXISTS’, ), ), ); … Read more
Give this a try. It replaces query_posts(), which you should never use (it kills unicorns) with WP_Query. Basically it first queries your sticky posts and then, if there were less than your required 3 posts, it will perform another query for the relavent number of posts. /** Grab the sticky post ID’s */ $sticky = … Read more
A better method for what you are trying to achieve This answer is not about the php error you are getting. You need these classes for styling your website right? Put the following code in your functions.php // A better body class function condensed_body_class($classes) { global $post; // add a class for the name of … Read more
Don’t run a custom query to get the post count. This is already done by the main query. What you are doing is the same as eating the same piece of meat twice. 🙂 As said, the main query already return the amount of posts found via the $found_posts property. You can access and display … Read more
There are quite a number of ways to achieve this and to optimize this to make it efficient as well. Here is just a basic idea to achieve this by using the offset parameter in WP_Query and using the php function date() to get the current week number. First, you should get the current week … Read more
As explained in Codex post__not_in (array) – use post ids. Specify post NOT to retrieve. post__not_in argument have to be passed as array. Change your query to: $the_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘category__in’ => $project_category, ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘post__not_in’ => array( $postid ), ) ); And it should work.
I solve this problem as below. We should compare each meta value instead of passing array in the meta value. Array( [post_type] => post [posts_per_page] => 3 [order] => DESC [meta_query] => Array( [relation] => AND [0] => Array( [key] => argomento [value] => Array([0] => 2875 ) [compare] => like ) [1] => Array( … Read more
You have a syntax error in your query. According to the documentation for WP_Query, tax_query is an array of arrays of parameters, which is to say that it should probably look like this: ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘semester’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => $getterm, ‘include_children’ => true, ‘operator’ => ‘IN’ ), ),
Your code is being executed too early before the “base” query was evaluated. As a thumb rule, in a plugin always hook your code to an appropriate hook, probably wp_loaded is best if there is nothing more specific
There should be no reason why you should get results with query_posts and not with WP_Query. query_posts uses WP_Query, so both should work the same. Your code is really messy and you are using miltiple syntaxes which makes your code hard to debug. This leads hiding obvious bugs and really send you on unnecessary wild … Read more
