Instead of excluding child categories, try to get only categories that have no parents (0) $cats = wp_list_categories( array( ‘parent’ => 0 ) ); That should work with no issues. EDIT: get_the_category_list() does not support advanced arguments. Your best bet is wp_get_post_categories($post_id, array(‘parent=>0’)). That will return an array of objects, you have to do the … Read more
Does your theme have a search.php to display the results? And if not then create one based on the codex examples or default theme or post the source to your index.php for troubleshooting. Edit: Your search.php is difficult to debug, try following the structure of a default theme, and put something like this in your … Read more
It’s been broken since 3.1, see: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/16622 and also http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-31-breaks-rss-customization-via-exclude_category NOTE: Otto’s suggested fix in that thread doesn’t work for me. Ticket suggests patch will go in for 3.1.1 and i can confirm that currently filters on pre_get_posts or parse_query fail for feeds(unfortunately).
wp_list_pages has limited functionality, and would be difficult to inject Categories into the mix without rewriting the function itself. Using the built in Menu functionality is likely the best way to go, because you can at least set individual item classes, allowing you to create Menu headers for your top level categories (having the header … Read more
function __add_global_categories( $term_id ) { if ( get_current_blog_id() !== BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE || ( !$term = get_term( $term_id, ‘category’ ) ) ) return $term_id; // bail if ( !$term->parent || ( !$parent = get_term( $term->parent, ‘category’ ) ) ) $parent = null; global $wpdb; $blogs = $wpdb->get_col( “SELECT blog_id FROM {$wpdb->blogs} WHERE site_id = ‘{$wpdb->siteid}'” ); foreach … Read more
The only possible way I can think to achieve this would be through getting neck deep in rewrite rules. You would have to flip your actual category structure around so that ‘exotic’ is the parent category, with two subcategories, ‘design’ and ‘travel’. Obviously you would put any posts you wanted in /design/exotic, into /exotic/design, same … Read more
Best way to programmatically link to multiple categories (union/intersection) [closed]
The following code is to display the subcategory instead of parent . I am not sure this is the one as you are trying too. <ul> <?php $catsy = get_the_category(); $myCat = $catsy->cat_ID; wp_list_categories(‘orderby=id&child_of=”.$myCat); ?> </ul>
Assuming the context here is filtering out posts from category C when viewing the category B posts archive, you could accomplish this by using the query_posts keyword category__in (which does not include posts from child categories) instead of cat (which does include posts from child categories). Just add it in archive.php or category.php depending on … Read more
To wrap your titles in h2 just change echo $ban_titles; to echo ‘<h2>’. $ban_titles . ‘</h2>’;. If you want to limit number of titles displayed to 2 change for($i=0; $i<count($pages); $i++) to for($i=0; $i<2; $i++). Hope it helps, PHP is not so scary after all 🙂 [edit] How about that? //This is the loop that … Read more
