We all know that ignore_sticky_posts is used to exclude sticky post from your custom query. – No, this assumption is wrong. What ignore_sticky_posts means: Even though in natural English, ignore_sticky_posts sounds like WordPress should ignore all sticky posts from the query, in reality that is not what WordPress does. Instead, you should read ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => … Read more
$wp_query hold main loop of page and should not be used to create multiple loops. If you are using new WP_Query object then your variable that holds it will have according count: $my_query = new WP_Query(); // stuff $count = $my_query->post_count; If you are using get_posts() then WP_Query object is not accessible and you should … Read more
The answer below is simplified, and could be extended to check if any posts have 3 matching tags before outputting the list. Using one query and assuming you have at least one post with 3 matching tags: //List of tag slugs $tags = array(‘foo’, ‘bar’, ‘chocolate’, ‘mango’, ‘hammock’, ‘leaf’); $args = array( ‘tag_slug__in’ => $tags … Read more
A single query Thought about this a bit more and there’s a chance that you can go with a single/the main query. Or in other words: No need for two additional queries when you can work with the default one. And in case you can’t work with a default one, you won’t need more than … Read more
The Problem I think there’s a typo in there: The name of the filter is posts_fields not post_fields. That could explain why the title2 field is unknown, because it’s definition isn’t added to the generated SQL string. Alternative – Single filter We can rewrite it to use only a single filter: add_filter( ‘posts_orderby’, function( $orderby, … Read more
I’m using two loops. First loop is to show the page content, and the second loop is to show the queried post contents. I commented into the codes where necessary. I emphasized into the loops, as Deckster0 said in WordPress support that, the_content() works only inside a WordPress Loop. I’m placing these code into a … Read more
I think the WP function you are looking for is add_rewrite_tag. It aims to add custom GET params to your URL and include it automatically in query_vars. For example, you can add the following to the init hook : add_rewrite_tag(‘%person%’,'([^&]+)’); For a url like http://example.com?person=joe, the global $wp_query will have $wp_query->query_vars[‘person’] = ‘joe’ You can … Read more
Why not just use get_pages()? e.g. <?php // Determine parent page ID $parent_page_id = ( ‘0’ != $post->post_parent ? $post->post_parent : $post->ID ); // Get child pages as array $page_tree_array = get_pages( array( ‘child_of’ => $parent_page_id; ) ); ?> But if it really must be as a WP_Query() object, use a similar method: <?php // … Read more
When running the importer, you must check the checkbox to download and import all media/attachments. If you do not, the posts will still have a featured image set, but the attachment they refer to will be invalid, and any attempt to call the_post_thumbnail will fail. Using your code you would get just the post title, … Read more
There’s no easy way to search serialized values in a meta query. If the list of values isn’t crazy long, potentially you could set up multiple meta queries: ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘relation’ => ‘OR’, array( ‘key’ => ‘system_power_supply’, ‘value’ => ‘single’, ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’, ), array( ‘key’ => ‘system_power_supply’, ‘value’ => ‘redundant’, ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’, … Read more
