update post category in a new table on frequent change of category
You could use an Action Hook ‘save_post‘ to implement the requirement and this way categories will stay synced with your custom table and default tables. Example : function post_updated_sync_category( $post_id ) { //Here you get postid of the post being updated //You can put your code to update in custom table here } add_action( ‘save_post’, … Read more
Admin is showing all posts on page 1
so it was $wp_query->set(‘nopaging’, true); Which was set in a pre_get_posts function. I never thought of searching for this. I’ve added if(!is_admin()){ // code } So it doesn’t run in the admin.
Show short text of content
One potential issue I see with that is if the content contains Shortcodes. You can strip Shortcodes before passing it to wp_trim_words if you want them removed, or alternately, if you want to maintain them you can apply the Shortcodes beforehand. You may also want to check that $news_item[“post_excerpt”] is not empty, in case a … Read more
How to show content of specific item on the same page?
If you don’t care about the URL of this page, you can do it without Ajax, using $_GET parameters. Take a look: // If we have $_GET parameter in URL, we save it in $page variable. Otherwise $page will be empty. ( isset( $_GET[‘page’] ) ) ? $page = ( int ) $_GET[‘page’] : $page=””; … Read more
Send Newsletter-Email when post changes
You can use a hook developed for such kind of purposes: post_updated Use this hook whenever you need to compare values before and after the post update.

Display WordPress Post By Date
i think your question has been answered in here $args = array(‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’ ); $myQuery = new WP_Query($args); $date=””; if ( $myQuery->have_posts() ) : while ( $myQuery->have_posts() ) : $myQuery->the_post(); if ( $date != get_the_date() ) { echo $date; echo ‘<hr />’; $date = get_the_date(); } the_title(); // or whatever you … Read more
WordPress The Next Posts
You can use the wordpress plugin ‘Ajax Load More‘ which facilitates you with the features of loading more posts on the same page.
How can I set and update the the_date according to a custom field of the post
Normally you would write a function that gets called by the save_post hook, and use wp_update_post to update the post. The problem is, when you call wp_update_post it calls save_post, which will cause an infinite loop. To get around that, we will unhook our function before calling wp_update_post, then re-hook it afterward. I have not … Read more
