If you want the total count of all the published posts in a particular category you can try this. $all_posts = new WP_Query( array( ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘cat’ => 3 ) ); echo $all_posts->post_count; or $all_posts = new WP_Query( array( ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘category_name’ => ‘uncategorized’ ) ); echo … Read more
The error seams to come from another source, not your query. You don’t use wp_options table. So maybe skipping $wpdb->show_errors(); $wpdb->print_error(); would make things even work. But probably there is an error somewhere else. To get an overview how to create AJAX search helper, you can check here: http://www.wpcodelab.com/archives/create-a-custom-ajax-search-for-wordpress
If you’re using the plugin SEO Ultimate (it’s popular and I recommend using it), it has a component called Slug Optimizer that strips those types of words out of the post-slug, so if the post title is “The Dandy Warhols”, the slug would just be “dandy-warhols”. Perhaps just order by the post-slug?
Try this: <?php get_header(); ?> <div id=”content” class=”clearfix row”> <article id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>” <?php post_class(‘clearfix’); ?> role=”article”> <section id=”work” class=”row”> <div class=”span3″> <h3>Recent Work</h3> <p>Intro Lorem ipsum</p> </div> <?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘portfolio’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 3 ); $query = new WP_Query( $args ); $porfolio_post_ids = array(); if ( $query->have_posts() ) … Read more
I’m not familiar with MultiPostThumbnails, but I suspect your problem is: $flexID = $my_posts->ID; That code appears to be trying to get the ID of the WP_Query object itself. I don’t think that exists. Even if it does, it won’t do you much good. Rather, use this: $flexID = get_the_ID(); That code gets the ID … Read more
You’ll probably need to do one of the following ‘compare’ => ‘=’ (or leave it out, as it’s the default) or… ‘value’ => $wpdb->esc_like( ‘%Boys%’ ) (needs global $wpdb;) or… ‘value’ => $wpdb->esc_like( ‘Boys’ ) (needs global $wpdb;)
Your add_action should be: add_action( “parse_query”, “checkaccess” );
This method uses a counter and 1 query. Only 3 posts from each post type can ever be displayed. $args = array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘type1’, ‘type2’, ‘type3’ ), ‘posts_per_page’ => -1 ); $myquery = new WP_Query( $args ); $type1 = 0; $type2 = 0; $type3 = 0; $count = 0; while ( $myquery->have_posts() ) … Read more
The primary loop query post ID is stored in $current. This variable is equivalent to $post->ID. The secondary loop query post ID is available within the loop as $post->ID. Thus, you just need a simple if statement in side your secondary loop: <?php if ( $current == $post->ID ) { // This post is the … Read more
<?php $timelimit=1 * 86400; //days * seconds per day $post_age = date(‘U’) – get_post_time(‘U’); if ($post_age < $timelimit) { echo ‘this post is within my time limits ‘; //DO SOMETHING } ?>
