I wonder if a single typo is messing things up for you? Please try this: $args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => ‘-1’, ‘orderby’ => ‘ID’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘category_name’ => ‘documents’ ); $surveys = get_posts($args); where I replaced category-name with category_name. I know there is ways to exclude categories by ID but I need to use … Read more
There’s an example here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_insert_post // Create post object $my_post = array( ‘post_title’ => ‘My post’, ‘post_content’ => ‘This is my post.’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘post_author’ => 1, ‘post_category’ => array(8,39) ); // Insert the post into the database wp_insert_post( $my_post ); ‘post_category’ takes an array so you’d want to send it one.

Under ‘Settings’ click on ‘Permalinks’ In ‘Permalinks’ you can see all of your various options for how to format the permalinks. It sounds like you want to use the … Read more
It certainly is! WordPress has filters called the_excerpt_rss and the_content_feed which filter the posts’ content and excerpts for the RSS feed. The filter is called in the loop, so you can use get_the_ID() and get_the_content() (and other loop functions) to fetch information about the post. add_filter( ‘the_excerpt_rss’, ‘wpse151603_rss_post_excerpt’ ); function wpse151603_rss_post_excerpt( $excerpt ) { $content … Read more
This is probably not the template for a category archive, but for a custom page template because of this: /* Template Name: Categories */ The query variable ‘cat’ is not set in pages. Move get_category_link( $id ); inside the foreach. <li><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/151716/<?php echo esc_url( get_category_link( $cat->term_id ) ); ?>”><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a></li>

You can use custom Permalink in setting. See bellow screenshot..
You can create a custom widget for that. // Widget Class ============================== class WPSE154979_Widget extends WP_Widget { function WPSE154979_Widget() { $widget_ops = array( ‘classname’ => ‘WPSE154979_custom_widget’, ‘description’ => __(‘Post Category Children\’s or Parent Categories’) ); $control_ops = array( ‘width’ => 200, ‘height’ => 400); $this->WP_Widget( ‘WPSE154979_custom’, ‘Custom Categories’, $widget_ops, $control_ops ); $this->alt_option_name=”WPSE154979_custom”; } function widget( … Read more
I think your problem lies in is_category(). This conditional check if you are on a category page, not if a post belongs to a category. To check if a post belongs to a category, you should be using has_category So your conditional statement should be <?php if (has_category(‘Legal Libation Columns’) && has_tag(‘Legal Libation Columns’)): ?> … Read more
There is no filter for the_category. All that the_category does is to echo get_the_category_list. Have a look at the function in wp-includes/category-template.php lines 273 – 275 273 function the_category( $separator=””, $parents=””, $post_id = false ) { 274 echo get_the_category_list( $separator, $parents, $post_id ); 275 } Personally I would say that the_category is incorrect for what … Read more
