The “main” query on the page is saved to a global called $wp_query. That global determines a great deal about the page, including both content and which template is used to display that content. Using $wp_query overwrites that main query and can cause some very basic things to fail but get_the_category() is probably not one … Read more
If you’re using the WP-PageNavi plugin, there are several FAQs on using it with a secondary query loop: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-pagenavi/faq/ this code is from one of the pages linked from that FAQ: $my_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘tag’ => ‘foo’, ‘paged’ => get_query_var(‘paged’) ) ); while ( $my_query->have_posts() ) : $my_query->the_post(); the_title(); // more stuff here … Read more
I found my issue was that I was using the term as the taxonomy, which brought me all posts under the taxonomy and not the category(term). This was a quick fix, I just wish I would have caught on to it last night: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘restaurant-menu’, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => … Read more
You haven’t mentioned that you’re trying to filter your taxonomy archives by meta key, but that’s whats happening in your code. The problem is that you’re discarding the taxonomy query prepared for you ( bad! doubling the database work in the process ), and creating your own, but you never tell it which term to … Read more
If you only have two types (directors and none directors and you allready get all of the directors you can simply use the post__not_in parameter, ex: // Get your directors just like you do now // $directors = get_posts(array( … // Then create a simple array with only the post id’s of the directors. $directors_ids … Read more
Not the best solution 😛 but this could help you: select distinct(p.ID) from wp_posts p, wp_term_relationships r, wp_term_taxonomy tt, wp_terms t WHERE p.post_author in (1, 2, 3) and r.object_id = p.ID and tt.term_taxonomy_id = r.term_taxonomy_id and tt.taxonomy = ‘category’ and tt.term_id = t.term_id and t.term_id in (1, 2, 3);
To any one else facing this issue…. I assume your using WP Engine. I only say this because it turns out WP Engine turns off the rand parameter by default. Go to your wp engine dashboard settings, scroll down and enable the random functionality. What a pain.
The obvious first step would be to use get_col instead of get_result. You will get an array returned straightaway so you could skip your foreach and go straight to: $args = array( ‘author__in’ => $following_users_ids, ‘posts_per_page’ => 12, ‘paged’ => $paged, ); Behind the scenes, get_col does much what you are doing but you are … Read more
I see two problems here. One is that the explode() doesn’t actually specify the correct split string, which is ‘, ‘, WITH a space. What is written in the sample: ‘post_type’ => explode( ‘,’, $posttype ), What is written in the example shortcode: [myquery posttype=”cpt_press, cpt_two, cpt_three, cpt_etc”] Note that there is a comma AND … Read more
