get_pagination_links is looking at $wp_query, whereas you want pagination for your query object named $loop. So instead, use paginate_links Something similar to this code, which is based on get_pagination_links, alebit with wp-query swapped out for your loop query object: $endsize = $midsize = 1; $type=”plain”; $loop->query_vars[‘paged’] > 1 ? $current = $loop->query_vars[‘paged’] : $current = … Read more
Use pages for pages and posts for posts. Both post types are specialized for their use case. They use different permalink settings and list tables. The number of pages is not limited. I have seen site with more than 50.000 pages running smooth. In earlier days, the permalink parsing for pages was slow under some … Read more
All posts have to be associated with at least one category. It might be possible to bypass this requirement but probably doesn’t worth the effort. If you really need to be able to have content without categories then you should create and use a custom post type, with which you can create and use custom … Read more
function wpse80148_filter_post_class( $classes ) { if( is_home() || is_front_page() ) $classes[] = ‘span4’; return $classes; } add_filter( ‘post_class’, ‘wpse80148_filter_post_class’ );

See the Template Hierarchy to learn how WordPress selects a template based on the requested page. This behavior also extends to Conditional Tags. is_page() will return false on … Read more
You shouldn’t inject postinfo() in the <head> section (that’s what happens when you use the wp_head hook). If you do not want to edit templates, I’d suggest you use the wp_footer hook instead, and append the postinfo to your header div with jQuery, e.g.: $(‘.post-info’).appendTo(‘#header’);
You can use the Conditional Tag in_category() within the loop: if( in_category( ‘events’ ) ): // output stuff for events category post else: // not in events category endif; Another option for single posts is to load a different template with a filter based on the category: function wpa8176_category_single_template( $template=”” ){ $categories = get_the_category(); foreach( … Read more
If you’re on a singular page, sometime after init and all the query variables have all ben set up you can use get_queried_object_id or get_queried_object. <?php if (is_singular()) { $post_id = get_queried_object_id(); // or get the whole object $post = get_queried_object(); // or do the first one differently $post_id = get_queried_object()->ID; } You can also … Read more
Check out the Codex page about creating your own page templates. The files defining each Page Template are found in your Themes directory under /wp-content. To create a new Custom Page Template for a Page you must create a file using a plain text editor (e.g Notepad or TextWrangler). Basically, create a php file, and … Read more
