Two issues here. First, you’re not using the loop properly. Instead of the foreach use while ( $query->have_posts() ) { $query->the_post(); //etc. Secondly, in using foreach($posts as $post) you are overwriting the global $post variable, so if you really must use foreach then use a different variable name!
Generically speaking, yes. If your normal output would be to echo at the end, echoing during the loop wouldn’t change much. function get_some_posts($args) { $query = new WP_Query( $args ); if ( $query->have_posts() ) { while ( $query->have_posts() ) { $query->the_post(); the_title(); // the_title() is the same as echo get_the_title(); } } } add_action(‘custom_hook’,’get_some_posts’); The … Read more
Few issues I see here with your code: You have category_name set to upcoming class … category slugs do not have spaces in them, so this is incorrect. If you meant to have all upcoming and class categories, then use upcoming,class https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#category-parameters You have a meta query on company but it sounds like you’re also … Read more
The string you are outputting using print_r() is what is known as a serialized string. When WordPress stores an array of values in 1 custom field, it compresses the array into this string using a function called serialize() What you want to do is to unserialize the string, and then you can access each “associated … Read more
Yes, there are points during the WordPress request life-cycle that provide hooks for you to make modification to the request and other parameters available, more on that in just a moment. Consideration… You can modify superglobals, as you are aware, but in doing so you may be introducing unexpected behaviour into your application especially if … Read more
So I think there’s two solutions to this. Precalculate this value. I would suggest looking in to this if you can. Maybe hook into the post save hook and do a simple operation to save calculated price in a new meta value. This saves the below complicated code. It is possible to do this with … Read more
I think the easiest way would be to create a third meta field for “score” and use the WordPress update_post_meta() function to automatically calculate its value, based on the values of assignment_value and current_grade. Exactly how to do that has been answered well in this response: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/54068/16 Once you have your third “Score” meta field, … Read more
$sticky = get_option( ‘sticky_posts’ ); $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’ , ‘orderby’ => ‘date’ , ‘order’ => ‘DESC’ , ‘posts_per_page’ => 4, ‘cat’ => ‘3’, ‘paged’ => get_query_var(‘paged’), ‘post__in’ => isset( $sticky[0] ) ? $sticky[0] : array(), ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => 1, ); $q = new WP_Query($args); The above code will include only the first sticky … Read more
Looking at your query, I see lots of stuff like wp_posts.post_content LIKE ‘%اهمية%’. You should know that column LIKE ‘%matchstring%’ is a notorious MySQL performance-killer. If you can change your operations to use column LIKE ‘matchstring%’ (with no leading %) this will get better. Or, maybe it makes sense for you to adopt a search … Read more
If you have access to user IDs, you can use the count_user_posts() function. You would get the number of posts by a user like this: //Assume the variable $thisUser is equal to a valid user ID $ThisUserCount = count_user_posts($thisUser, ‘recipe’); EDIT: Where you’re calling the count_user_posts() function, you’re passing it the array $args instead of … Read more
