You can try to fetch the sticky posts IDs from the sticky_posts option and then modify the main query on the category archives accordingly: /** * Category Archives: Only display sticky posts for each category term */ add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, function( \WP_Query $q ) { if( ! is_admin() && $q->is_category() && $q->is_main_query() ) { $sticky_posts = … Read more
I’m sorry. I didn’t create a single.php file. In my learnings I have discovered that if no single.php file exist then WordPress falls back to index.php. So the link were actually working but just using the same template. Again im sorry for wasting your time.
counting post from a wp-query using sticky_post
I would start by creating an array to put your posts into, to create a counting system of some kind. Dump your list item output into that array, count it, and use the remaining count to call your second query. <?php $term = get_term_by(‘slug’, get_query_var(‘term’), get_query_var(‘taxonomy’)); $sticky = get_option(‘sticky_posts’); // Moved the base arguments into … Read more
I had a similar aproach some days ago //….. ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘relation’ => ‘OR’, array( ‘pin_clause’ = array( ‘meta_key’ => ‘pin_to_top’, ‘meta_type’ => ‘NUMERIC’, ‘meta_value_num’ => ‘1’, ‘compare’ => ‘=’ ) ), array( ‘date_clause’ => array( ‘meta_key’ => ‘_EventStartDate’, ‘meta_type’ => ‘DATETIME’, ‘meta_value’ => ‘$today’, ‘compare’ => ‘>=’ ) ) ), ‘orderby’ => array( … Read more
I see two issues in your code. First, you pass what could be a string into post__not_in, which accepts an array of posts IDs (that’s fine if your option holds an array of IDs, but always good to verify). Second, you seem to be repeating the same thing twice: you modify the query with pre_get_posts … Read more
We all know that ignore_sticky_posts is used to exclude sticky post from your custom query. – No, this assumption is wrong. What ignore_sticky_posts means: Even though in natural English, ignore_sticky_posts sounds like WordPress should ignore all sticky posts from the query, in reality that is not what WordPress does. Instead, you should read ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => … Read more
I found it. <div class=”trending-right”> <?php $sticky = get_option( ‘sticky_posts’ ); // Get all sticky posts rsort( $sticky ); // Sort the stickies, latest first $sticky = array_slice( $sticky, 0, 6 ); // Number of stickies to show query_posts( array( ‘post__in’ => $sticky, ‘caller_get_posts’ => 1 ) ); // The query if (have_posts() ) { … Read more
Ok, I figured it out myself. So maybe I can help someone out with the same question. I made a custom field TRUE / FALSE called “featured”. In facet WP I created this query: <?php return array( ‘post_type’ => ‘custom_post_type’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘is_featured’ => array( ‘key’ => ‘featured’, ‘compare’ => ‘EXISTS’ … Read more
It is not the most elegant solution, but you could sort the results on your search page: At the top of your page, make the wp_query variable available global $wp_query; Later in you code, if there are some results : if ( have_posts() ) { //your desired order $order = array(45, 78, 94); // a … Read more
