I think the rather simplistic approach would be: copy the whole WP_Widget_Categories from wp-includes/default-widgets.php, and paste it to your functions.php. In there, you could modify the output by customizing this part of the class: class WP_Widget_Recent_Posts extends WP_Widget { … <?php echo $before_widget; ?> <?php if ( $title ) echo $before_title . $title . $after_title; … Read more
$pcount is counting how many posts you’ve gone through in the current loop, it isn’t counting the number of pages. Think for a moment about what the loop is doing, if you’re on page 2, why would you have the posts from page 1? It makes no sense, which is a sign that thinks aren’t … Read more
Query recent posts by author

This seems to work with custom post type : function get_custom_posts( $params ) { extract( shortcode_atts( array ( ‘number’ => ‘1’, ‘excerpt’ => 290, ‘readmore’ => ‘no’, ‘cpt’ => ‘post’, ‘readmoretext’ => ‘Read more’ ), $params ) ); //$latest_posts = get_posts( ‘category=0&numberposts=” . $number . “&suppress_filters=false’); OLD $latest_posts = query_posts( ‘post_type=”.$cpt.”&posts_per_page=” . $number ); wp_reset_query(); … Read more
$args = array( ‘posts_per_page’=>-1, ‘number_posts’=>-1, ‘category’=>9, ‘orderby’=>’post_date’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘post_type’=>’post’, ‘post_status’=>’publish’ ); $posts = get_posts($args); foreach($posts as $post): $id= $post->ID; $permalink = get_permalink( $id ); $title = $post->post_title; $content = $post->post_content; $image = wp_get_attachment_url(get_post_thumbnail_id($id)); endforeach;
You should add wp_reset_postdata after outputting your recent posts.
The issue is not in how your site is coded or operated, but in how Google decides to show their search results. When the homepage is pulled up, sometimes they’ll show recent posts below it, but often won’t show your author information next to it, because the same author has already been shown above. So … Read more
The function get_posts() accepts a parameter ‘post__not_in’, which allows you to specify an array of post IDs to exclude from the query. get_posts() is just a wrapper for WP_Query, so the documentation for this parameter can be found here. When inside the loop (such as inside single-events.php) you can retrieve the current post’s ID with … Read more
You need 2 queries e.g. $query1 = new WP_Query( ‘post_type=post&posts_per_page=1’ ); // The Loop while ( $query1->have_posts() ) { $query1->the_post(); echo ‘<li>’ . get_the_title() . ‘</li>’; } wp_reset_postdata(); $query2 = new WP_Query( ‘post_type=post&posts_per_page=100&offset=1’ ); while( $query2->have_posts() ) { $query2->next_post(); echo ‘<li>’ . get_the_title( $query2->post->ID ) . ‘</li>’; } wp_reset_postdata(); The first query gets the first … Read more
