Here’s a rough function I use to handle this, it should work well for anyone out there wanting to do this quick and easy. Add this this your functions.php file and then visit your site with ?template_report added onto the URL to display a report for every custom theme template. It’s rough, I’d suggest commenting/uncommenting … Read more
You can use get_comments. Function Reference/get comments $args = array(‘cat’ => ‘home’,’post_type’ => ‘post’)); $post_obj = new WP_Query($args); while($post_obj->have_posts() ) : $post_obj->the_post(); //display comments $comments = get_comments(array( ‘post_id’ => $post->ID, ‘number’ => ‘2’ )); foreach($comments as $comment) { //format comments } endwhile;
You can paste this block of code in your currently active WordPress theme functions.php file: function wpse_footer_db_queries(){ echo ‘<!– ‘.get_num_queries().’ queries in ‘.timer_stop(0).’ seconds. –>’.PHP_EOL; } add_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘wpse_footer_db_queries’); The above block of code, will render an HTML comment in the footer of your theme (before </body> and </html>, containing the number of database queries and … Read more
View this section of the Codex to learn how to create a custom query: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query Your query will be something like: $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘meta_key’ => ‘post_views_count’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 5 ) ); By default, the ordering will be highest to lowest, thus giving you the “top” 5.
$latest_cpt = get_posts(“post_type=yourcpt&numberposts=1”); echo $latest_cpt[0]->ID The only cheaper way than above, I can think of, would be to write your own SQL query to just return the one post and only the column ID.
There is no build in function to achieve what you want, at least not for complicated meta queries like this. If you need to use build in functions for this, the best will be to make use of WP_Query. To make the query faster and to skip the unwanted returned array of WP_Post properties, and … Read more
Why not just use get_pages()? e.g. <?php // Determine parent page ID $parent_page_id = ( ‘0’ != $post->post_parent ? $post->post_parent : $post->ID ); // Get child pages as array $page_tree_array = get_pages( array( ‘child_of’ => $parent_page_id; ) ); ?> But if it really must be as a WP_Query() object, use a similar method: <?php // … Read more
global $wpdb; $result = $wpdb->get_results ( ” SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type=”page” ” ); foreach ( $result as $page ) { echo $page->ID.'<br/>’; echo $page->post_title.'<br/>’; }
Have you tried using the WP_Query class? You might find it’s easier to use the built-in tools for this instead of a custom query from scratch. Something similar to the following should work for you: <?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘recipe_cpt’, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘recipe_tx’, ‘field’ => ‘term_id’, ‘terms’ => 37 … Read more
I believe the best way to do this in a plugin is to run the following sample function when the pre_get_posts action hook is encountered. The $wp_query object is available, meaning your conditional tags are available, but before WordPress gets the posts, which means you are changing query vars prior to the first query being … Read more
