You can always override the template that will be called with the template_include or a related filter, but this might hide deeper problems with custom archives. As I understand it, you want to use the following structure: /glossary/ should be an archive page for all sumo-glossary-term posts /glossary/[letter]/ should be an archive page for posts … Read more
Use Justin Tadlock’s plugin “Members“. It gives you the ability to create new roles and edit existing roles, as well as add custom capabilities. All that work that you’d have to do can be taken down to a few clicks. I know you said in your comment on ZaMoose’s answer that you are ‘looking to … Read more
Yes, this is possible, but if the plugin is creating a custom post type using the rewrite => array(‘slug’ => ‘post_type’) parameter, then it’s not likely that you’re going to be able to replace the slug. Whenever custom post types are created, URL rewrite rules are written to the database. Depending on which action triggers … Read more
Try this $custom_terms = get_terms(‘custom_taxonomy’); foreach($custom_terms as $custom_term) { wp_reset_query(); $args = array(‘post_type’ => ‘custom_post_type’, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘custom_taxonomy’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => $custom_term->slug, ), ), ); $loop = new WP_Query($args); if($loop->have_posts()) { echo ‘<h2>’.$custom_term->name.'</h2>’; while($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post(); echo ‘<a href=”‘.get_permalink().'”>’.get_the_title().'</a><br>’; endwhile; } } We get all the terms of a … Read more
SQL query for renaming the posts: UPDATE `wp_posts` SET `post_type` = ‘<new post type name>’ WHERE `post_type` = ‘<old post type name>’; SQL query for renaming taxonomy: UPDATE `wp_term_taxonomy` SET `taxonomy` = ‘<new taxonomy name>’ WHERE `taxonomy` = ‘<old taxonomy name>’; That should take care of all of the database areas. Just remember to match … Read more
First of all, if you want to show taxonomy metabox only to your custom post type, then register the taxonomy to only that custom post type by passing the custom post type name as argument in the register_taxonomy() function. By doing this, the taxonomy metabox appears only to custom post type. If you don’t want … Read more
Is this function really for modifying post types Yes. and if so, can you simply redeclare a couple arguments and leave the rest alone? No. If you want to modify arguments to a post type, you need to use get_post_type_object to get the post type object, modify what you want in it, then re-register it … Read more
I wound up working on the exact same thing and this post was very helpful. I used Custom Fields and here is the code that I used to create a list of all events greater than the current date. Note the extra taxonomy based filters. <?php // Let’s get the data we need to loop … Read more
Understanding the internals The “sort” order of adjacent (next/prev) posts is not really a sort “order”. It’s a separate query on each request/page, but it sorts the query by the post_date – or the post parent if you have a hierarchical post as currently displayed object. When you take a look at the internals of … Read more
After a quick chat with Magicroundabout who pointed out a useful resource from Justin Tadlock, it turns out that capabilities for custom post types don’t actually exist unless you use add_cap to the role, for example for the following custom post type: add_action( ‘init’, ‘register_cpt_gallery’ ); function register_cpt_gallery() { $labels = array( ‘name’ => __( … Read more
