There isn’t an RSS of the names of the categories specifically otherwise I would have used the XML from the RSS feed with XSLT to display the category list that way. There is a handy function named add_feed(). You can create any feed or other output with it. Should be useful in your case. And … Read more
I found the solution… My functions page now looks like: <?php class dropdown extends Walker_CategoryDropdown { function start_el(&$output, $category, $depth, $args) { $pad = str_repeat(‘ ’, $depth * 3); $cat_name = apply_filters( ‘list_cats’, $category->name, $category ); $output .= “\t<option class=\”level-$depth\” value=\””.$category->slug.”\””; $output .= ‘>’; $output .= $pad.$cat_name; if ( $args[‘show_count’] ) $output .= ‘ (‘. $category->count .’)’; … Read more
You have to explicitly set ‘suppress_filters’ => false in get_posts, otherwise filters are not applied.
The easy way is to just use a PHP based reader and parse/output the results. Maybe your CMS already has one but if not and it’s based on PHP you can use, MagpieRSS SimplePie Simplexml Then you simple point it to your categories /feed, like –> www.example.com/your_category/feed You can easily customize a feed to show … Read more
strangely familiar to this, but it is different, so here’s a modified version add_filter( ‘post_link’, ‘remove_parent_cats_from_link’, 10, 3 ); function remove_parent_cats_from_link( $permalink, $post, $leavename ){ $cats = get_the_category( $post->ID ); if ( $cats ) { // Make sure we use the same start cat as the permalink generator // what happens now actually is the … Read more
The is_single function (used in your excerpt.php file) returns true only when the main query contains one single post. Since you’re calling get_template_part from an archives page, your query contains more than one post, so is_single returns false and your excerpt.php file bails. Remove the check for is_single and you should be good to go. … Read more
There is an argument walker for wp_dropdown_categories(). It accepts an instance of a custom walker, a class extending Walker_CategoryDropdown or the generic Walker. Let’s create such a class. We have to change just one method. class WPSE_Cat_Slug_Walker extends Walker_Category { function start_el( &$output, $category, $depth, $args, $id = 0 ) { $pad = str_repeat(‘ ’, $depth … Read more
To answer your question, it doesn’t matter from where you’re going to player1. HTTP being a stateless protocol, doesn’t care if you’re going from announcements or teams or even if by typing directly to the address bar. So what you’re asking is not possible without some kind of coding Now when we have the same … Read more
Add orderby and order to your arguments: $cat_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘post__not_in’ => get_option( ‘sticky_posts’ ), ‘category__in’ => array($cat->term_id), ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ‘paged’ => $paged, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’ ) ); Update it seems it still takes one category, lists 5 posts and then goes to another, with 5 posts etc. It … Read more
This function is declared in wp-admin/includes/taxonomy.php. This file will be loaded in wp-admin/includes/admin.php. And that now is called in wp-admin/admin.php. So the solution is: Use the hook ‘admin_init’ or require all necessary files manually. But don’t do that on every request.
