count_user_posts() doesn’t support the second parameter ($post_type in your code), according to the docs. There is a function at the bottom of the docs page that allows you do filter by post_type, you could drop in functions.php and use.
I’m not sure this is possible. Why do you need a page template? Why can’t you use a custom post type archive, which is built-in to WordPress ( if you register the post type with has_archive set to true). I’m ignoring all your other possible $args, because I don’t know how you are registering this … Read more
I would highly recommend you to make one of those wp query calls the main query & all others as secondary queries. That will make your life much easier in the long run. If you absolutely want to disable the main query, wordpress doesn’t have a direct filter for that. You can however do a … Read more
Here’s an example using WP_Query‘s meta_query to query posts between two meta key values: $meta_query = array( array( ‘key’ => ‘event_date’, ‘value’ => array( $date_start, $date_end ), ‘compare’ => ‘BETWEEN’ ) ); $args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘meta_key’ => ‘event_date’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’, ‘meta_query’ => $meta_query ); $results = new WP_Query( $args );
You can use WP_Query() with paged array key to pass the current page number: <?php $paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1; $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘articles’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 4, ‘paged’ => $paged ); $articles = new WP_Query($args); //////////////////////////////// $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘news’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 1, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => … Read more
Ok I have figured it out; added the following to functions.php: add_filter( ‘posts_request’, ‘my_request_filter’, 10, 2 ); function my_request_filter($sql, $query) { if($query->is_main_query() && is_search()) { $sql = “SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_content LIKE ‘[smoothslider%’ AND post_parent !=’0′”; } return $sql; } I understand that with no access to the database or being able to … Read more
Multiple homepage layouts as selected by user from theme options
Moving a site from local to live should not effect queries like that one, where there are not hard-coded values like post IDs or post slugs that might have changed with the migration (depending on how you migrate). What could conceivably be happening is that the page/page-template association gets broken. That information is stored in … Read more
I found that I was able to do this by using the Instagrate Pro plugin, which creates individual posts for every image it pulls in from Instagram. The standard loop then just pulls in those posts into the archive.
You can detect where the user comes from (like Google) using HTTP_REFERER. <?php if (strpos($_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’], “google”) == true) { echo “Hello Google User!”; } ?> So for your logged-in user: <?php if ( current_user_can( ‘subscriber’ ) && strpos( $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’], ‘google’ ) ) { ?> [content here] <?php } ?> Important Links wp_get_referer()
