The WordPress admin area uses capabilities to determine which user role can see what pages etc. You can use custom written code or several plugins to control to capabilities by each user. I’d suggest using the Members plugin for some easy control.
Try this code <div class=”container”> <!– Example row of columns –> <div class=”row front-posts”> <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?> <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <div class=”line2″></div> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php endif; ?> <?php wp_reset_query(); ?> <!– Start latest post –> <div class=”line2″> <?php $paged = get_query_var(‘paged’) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1; … Read more
Answering my own question here, for anyone who might encounter this problem in the future. The cause for the right templates not loading was having uppercase letters in my template filename. Changing all characters in the filename to lowercase resolved the problem, and the templates are now being applied as they should. I’m still unsure … Read more
First remove the category metabox from the post edit screen for this particular role, let’s name it onecat-author: if (current_user_can(‘onecat-author’)) { remove_meta_box (‘category’, ‘post’, ‘normal’); } Next, when the post is saved use the available hook to assign the category: if (current_user_can(‘onecat-author’)) { add_action (‘save_post’, ‘wpse_231846_save_cat’, 10, 1 ); } function wpse_231846_save_cat ($post_id) { wp_set_post_categories … Read more
In general page URL are “last resort” match when nothing else fully matches the URL. This means that you can have something like example.com/category/cat1 be a URL of a category and example.com/category/cat1/page1 be a URL of a page. For the last to work you obviously need a grandpa page with slug “category” and a father … Read more
You can and should do it in a more simple way: In this example you can see the $tags variable, it get the tags of the post compare them and shows 7 posts (the showposts parameter) also makes sure that it won’t show the original post (post__not_in parameter). <?php // related posts based on first … Read more
Correct. post__in requires an array but the id parameter in [video-course limit=8 id=”418, 1186″] is passed in as a string, so in your shortcode, you would have to parse it into an array in order to use it: if ( !is_array($id) ) { // If $id is not an array (not your default value in … Read more
Just realised what the problem is, the code should basically be: <?php $catergory = get_the_category(); ?> <?php echo $catergory[0]->name; ?> I think the different versions of PHP from localhost / server were different which is why it was working on one but not the other (feel free to correct me if I’m wrong)
I have found a solution, using $query->get(‘cat’): when restricted users select “all categories” $query->get(‘cat’) will return ‘0’, so in this case I will apply filtering, otherwise my code won’t run, allowing user-selected filter (in a restricted range) to be applied /********** post & media lists filtered by user role & category **************** function posts_for_current_role($query) { … Read more
I found the solution. I remove this $paged = (get_query_var(‘page’)) ? get_query_var(‘page’) : 1; from the query now its working fine without repeating the posts.
