If you created your cpt correctly and just want it do be displayed like any other post, there is nothing else you need to do. WordPress will use the single.php from the theme and display the single versions of your post type as a normal post. If you want to add additional meta, you could … Read more
You can use locate_template() first. If this returns anything but an empty string ” then the template exists either in parent or child theme. if( ” === locate_template( ‘custom-single.php’ ) ) { // Replace given template with your template path. }
Have you flushed your permalinks? If not, visit your permalinks page in your dashboard, then, refresh the page you are trying to view. Let us know if that helps. Edit: Upon re-reading your question, actually, no – just because you create a single-post_type.php file does not mean WordPress will use that file with regards to … Read more
Got it. I had tried to use flush_rewrite_rules() on plugin activation/deactivation, as so: function creativeworks_activate() { // register taxonomies/post types here flush_rewrite_rules(); } function creativeworks_deactivate() { flush_rewrite_rules(); } register_activation_hook( __FILE__, ‘creativeworks_activate’ ); register_deactivation_hook( __FILE__, ‘creativeworks_deactivate’ ); …but that didn’t seem to do anything. However, when I changed the site-wide permalink options arbitrarily and saved them, … Read more
I would tend not to go with wp_get_recent_posts or even get_posts for custom queries like this. By default, template tags like the_excerpt() is not available to these functions, and you have to make use of setup_postdata($post) to have access to these template tags. I would personally use WP_Query in a case like this which is … Read more
When you look at the source code, the tag template is loaded as follow in template hierarchy elseif ( is_tag() && $template = get_tag_template() ) : in wp-includes/template-loader.php get_tag_template() uses get_query_template() which uses locate_template() which loads the tag template according to hierarchy from the theme root folder So, moving your templates to a sub-folder will … Read more
You can use below code for translating strings: add_filter(‘gettext’, ‘translate_text’); add_filter(‘ngettext’, ‘translate_text’); function translate_text($translated) { $translated = str_ireplace(‘Choose an option’, ‘Select’, $translated); $translated = str_ireplace(‘Original Text’, ‘Your Replacment Text’, $translated); return $translated; } But I have no idea for translating complex contents. I know you don’t want to use plugins but as my research, we … Read more
You could filter the include paths returned by get_included_files by removing any files from the list that are not in your theme (and/or child theme) directory: function get_theme_includes() { $includedfiles = get_included_files(); // normalize theme paths for matching $styledir = str_replace(“\\”,”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”,get_stylesheet_directory()); $templatedir = str_replace(“\\”,”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”,get_template_directory()); $i = 0; // loop included files foreach ($includedfiles as $includedfile) … Read more
The conditional you use to output get_template_part(‘content’, ‘none’); is only triggered if there is no post in the main loop, for example, when a category has no posts in it: if (have_posts()){ while(have_posts()) { the_post(); // If the category has a post and we are on a category page, then show the posts get_template_part(‘content’, ‘archive’); … Read more
I don’t see any reason to redirect index.php. Let’s say you only have a Front Page, no blog or post types with archives. You would assign the Front Page in Settings -> Reading and WordPress will do the template redirect for you. At that point, nothing uses index.php and there’s no need to redirect it. … Read more
