You are trying to supply an array as part of the string query parameter. You could instead just supply the arguments list as an array like this: $newQuery = new WP_Query( array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ‘cat’ => $cats[0]->term_id, ‘post__not_in’ => array($exclude_post) ) );
category is a valid parameter for get_posts, not for WP_Query. Here are the valid category parameters for WP_Query cat (int) – use category id. category_name (string)– use category slug (NOT name). category__and (array) – use category id. category__in (array) – use category id. category__not_in (array) – use category id. You can use either use cat … Read more
Your code will run five SQL queries in total. When setting no_found_rows => true the first two queries SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.ID FROM wp_posts WHERE 1=1 AND wp_posts.ID IN (1,49,63,249,72,95,259,207,183,225) AND wp_posts.post_type=”post” AND (wp_posts.post_status=”publish”) ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date ASC LIMIT 0, 10 SELECT FOUND_ROWS() will become a single query like SELECT wp_posts.ID FROM wp_posts WHERE 1=1 AND … Read more
Why not use the SELECT INTO OUTFILE syntax: $wpdb->query(“SELECT * INTO OUTFILE ‘/path/to/file’ FIELDS TERMINATED BY ‘\t’ LINES TERMINATED BY ‘\n’ FROM tracking”);
Use this instead. It worked for me ‘sort_column’ => ‘menu_order’
Sticky posts do add to the post count rather than being included in it. You can alter your query to ignore sticky posts though. $allposts = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 20, ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => true ); But you are also missing pagination parameters. $paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1; $allposts = array( ‘post_type’ … Read more
It looks like your syntax is a little off for the tax query. Try this: $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘cat’ => ‘-1’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 2, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘post_format’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array(‘post-format-aside’, ‘post-format-gallery’, ‘post-format-link’, ‘post-format-image’, ‘post-format-quote’, ‘post-format-status’, ‘post-format-audio’, ‘post-format-chat’, ‘post-format-video’), ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’ ) … Read more
Pretty much the solution is to include all mimes except images. WordPress has a nifty little function where it keeps all it’s accepted mime-types called get_allowed_mime_types() ( cleverly named ) which returns an Array() of mimes. All we need to do is get the difference between the returned array and the array of mime-types we … Read more
The following 3 parameters will give you the posts in Ascending order from the date it was published (i.e The older posts will be shown first) ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘orderby’ => ‘publish_date’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ When you change the order to DESC you will get the posts in Descending order from the date it was … Read more
Here’s an idea, however it will require the ability to make custom SQL queries – with $wpdb. Since you want to get posts followed by a user, you can create a view, with the following structure: id user_id post_id post_title post_content … (all other post fields) don’t worry about duplicating posts. When you select, you … Read more
