So I'm trying to pull only the latest sticky post from WordPress and only 1. I am using 'showpost=1' but for some reason if I have two posts tagged as sticky both show up?
<h2>Breaking News</h2>
<?php
query_posts('posts_per_page=1');
if (have_posts()) {
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
if ( is_sticky() ) : ?>
<div class="small-12 medium-6 large-4 columns">
<div class="img-holder">
<?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
the_post_thumbnail('sticky-hp-thumbnails');
}
?>
<?php if( get_field('sticky_sub_heading') ): ?>
<div class="tag">
<p>
<?php the_field('sticky_sub_heading'); ?>
</p>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
<div class="small-12 medium-6 large-4 columns">
<h3><a href"<?php the_permalink() ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</a></h3>
<?php if( get_field('sticky_date') ): ?>
<p class="sticky-date">
<?php the_field('sticky_date'); ?>
</p>
<?php endif; ?>
<p>
<?php the_field('sticky_summary'); ?>
</p>
Read More </div>
<?php endif;
endwhile;
}
wp_reset_query();
?>
Where am I going wrong in the above code?
Use posts_per_page instead of "showposts"
i.e.
query_posts( 'posts_per_page=1' );
Source:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts
Updated: Adding WP_QUERY code to fetch latest sticky post:
<?php
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 1,
'post__in' => get_option( 'sticky_posts' ),
'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="post">
<h3><?php echo get_the_title(); ?></h3></a>
<p><?php echo get_the_excerpt(); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
endwhile;
endif;
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
The easiest solution to solve (workaround) your problem is to remove the while loop. This way you'll print only one.
Of course, this is sub-optimal since other pages may be fetched and unused; you could try using posts_per_page=1 or post_limits=1 to see if solve the issue.

I simply have a single loop that's pulling through a CPT, but I would like to hide the whole container div of the loop, if it has no posts...
I'm trying various iterations of this if statement surrounding the container:
<?php if( have_posts() ): ?>
<?php endif; ?>
But I can't seem to get it to work properly... The full code blog is here:
<?php if( have_posts() ): ?>
<div class="container default-strip-section">
<h2><?php the_field('vacancies_title'); ?></h2>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'vacancies',
'posts_per_page' => 9999
// 'orderby' => 'title',
// 'order' => 'ASC'
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="col-md-12">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<p><?php the_title() ?></p>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_postdata(); endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong? I'm sure I'm missing something simple! Thanks for looking!! :)
#rank's answer is nearly correct -- it needs the object instance before the_post() again:
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'vacancies',
'posts_per_page' => 9999, // If you're wanting to show all posts, use -1 here.
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
?>
<div class="container default-strip-section">
<h2><?php the_field('vacancies_title'); ?></h2>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<?php
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
$the_query->the_post();
?>
<div class="col-md-12">
<p><?php the_title(); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
endwhile;
?>
</div>
</div>
<?php
endif;
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
You need to put the html of the container after the if have_posts(), where you check if there are any posts. This way the whole container is not displayed when the if is not true.
But you are using a ACF field of the post where you are showing this list of vacancies. So we save the id into a variable to be able to view the value inside of your custom query called the_query (this is not a self-explanatory / good name). Why not call it vacancies_query to have a more readable code. Putting it together it should look like this:
<?php
$current_post = get_the_ID();
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'vacancies',
'posts_per_page' => 9999
);
$vacancies_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $vacancies_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<div class="container default-strip-section">
<h2><?php the_field('vacancies_title', $current_post); ?></h2>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<?php while ( $vacancies_query->have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="col-md-12">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<p><?php the_title() ?></p>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div> <!-- row -->
</div> <!-- container -->
<?php else :
/* nothing to see here */
endif;
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
I have two wp_query loops.
The first loop looks for a featured post and formats it differently than the rest of the posts.
Then the second loop displays the rest of the posts.
I want to exclude this first, featured post from the rest of the loop.
Right now, the post ID of the first post is saved as a variable.
I want to use that variable in the second loop, with the wp_query exclude argument.
But as far as I understand, that variable dies when my first loop ends. It's then a null variable in the second loop and so nothing is excluded.
<!-- Here's the query for the featured post -->
<?php
// the arguments
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => '1',
'orderby' => '',
'meta_key' => 'featured_post',
'meta_value' => '1'
); ?>
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query($args); ?>
<?php if ($the_query->have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<!-- I'm storing the ID so I can exclude it from the rest of the loop, but I know this doens't work right now -->
<?php $postid = get_the_ID(); ?>
<div class="small-12 columns entry" >
<div class="text-center" id="featured-thumbnail">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('featured'); ?>
</a>
<h2>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h2>
<p>
<?php
$content = get_the_content();
echo wp_trim_words($content, '75');
?>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<!-- If there is no featured post, pull in the most recent post and make it big -->
<?php else: ?>
<?php
// the arguments
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => '1',
'orderby' => '',
); ?>
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query($args); ?>
<?php if ($the_query->have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<!-- I'm storing the ID so I can exclude it from the rest of the loop, but I know this doens't work right now -->
<?php $postid = get_the_ID(); ?>
<div class="small-12 columns entry" >
<div class="text-center" id="featured-thumbnail">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('featured'); ?>
</a>
<h2>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h2>
<p>
<?php
$content = get_the_content();
echo wp_trim_words($content, '75');
?>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<!-- End of the nested loop (most recent posts) -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<!-- End of the featred post query loop-->
<?php endif; ?>
And here's the main loop:
<?php get_template_part('parts/content', 'featured-post'); ?>
<!-- This ends the logic for the featured post. Now we show the rest of the posts, excluding the first one we showed -->
<?php get_template_part('parts/content', 'category-filter'); ?>
<?php
// the arguments
$args=array(
'paged' => $paged,
'posts_per_page' => 9,
'post__not_in' => array($postid)
); ?>
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<!-- Start row that holds blocks -->
<div class="row small-up-1 medium-up-2 large-up-3">
<?php while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="column entry" >
<?php if( get_the_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('blog'); ?>
</a>
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<h5><?php the_title(); ?></h5>
<?php
$excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
echo wp_trim_words( $excerpt , '10', '');
?>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no more posts.</p>
<?php endif; ?>
How exactly do I set up a variable to use in the second loop?
I'm trying to use a image as a conditional to show different post types. I have one post with images and another one without images. So I built a If else statement and a while loop that calls the post. At the end I have a page number code. But the loop is infinite, I'm not finding where to close it. Some one can help me?
<?php if (have_posts()): while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="texto-longo">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); endif; ?>
<div class="row-2 w-row">
<?php
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 3,
'paged' => $paged,
'cat' => '3',
);
$wp_query = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<?php if ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="_w-image container-novidades">
<?php if( get_field('imagem_do_evento') ): ?>
<div class="w-row">
<div class="column w-col w-col-4"><img class="<?php the_field('imagem_do_evento');?>">
</div>
<div class="colomn-text-novidades w-col w-col-8">
<h1 class="txt-blue"><?php the_title();?></h1>
<h3 class="txt-blue"><?php the_field('imagem_do_evento');?></h3>
<p><?php get_the_date('d/m/Y'); ?></p>
<p><?php the_field('imagem_do_evento');?></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php wp_reset_query(); else : ?>
<p>Ainda não temos novidades :(</p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php if ($wp_query->max_num_pages > 1) { // check if the max number of pages is greater than 1 ?>
<nav class="navegacao-paginas">
<div class="paginacao twisted w-inline-block">
<div class="seta-text"><?php echo get_previous_posts_link( '⟶' ); // display newer posts link ?></div>
</div>
<div class="paginacao w-inline-block">
<div class="seta-text"><?php echo get_next_posts_link( '⟶', $wp_query->max_num_pages ); // display older posts link ?></div>
</div>
</nav>
<?php } ?>
</div>
<?php wp_reset_query(); else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
Try to put the endwhile and edn if in the same row like this
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); endif; ?>
I Figured it Out. It was a div opening outside the if statement. And I wasn't closing all if else properly. Check out the final code.
<?php if (have_posts()): while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="texto-longo">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); endif; ?>

<?php
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 3,
'paged' => $paged,
'cat' => '4',
);
$wp_query = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<?php if ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php if( get_field('foto_novidades') ): ?>

I have no idea why this code is not working. I am trying to create a conditional statement where if this custom post type has posts then display customer-section div. if post does not exist then print no post statement. I did everything I thought I am suppose to but I must be doing something silly wrong because I can still see the customer-section div even though there are no posts.
here is what I have:
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="customer-section case-study">
<div class="case-study-container">
<h2>Case Studies</h2>
<?php $loop = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'case_study', 'posts_per_page' => 9 ) ); ?>
<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?>>
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<div class="press-featured-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('', array('class' => 'th')); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="blog-post">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<div class="entry-summery">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
<footer>
<?php $tag = get_the_tags(); if (!$tag) { } else { ?><p><?php the_tags(); ?></p><?php } ?>
</footer>
</div>
<hr />
</div>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; else : ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
What you are currently doing is checking if your initial have_posts() (the default query) condition is true and if this is a page template it is always true. Actually (for page templates) you don't need that check at all, since WordPress will return 404 if the page is not found.
You need a check for posts for your custom query:
<?php the_post(); ?>
<div class="customer-section case-study">
<div class="case-study-container">
<h2>Case Studies</h2>
<?php $loop = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'case_study', 'posts_per_page' => 9 ) );
if ( $loop->have_posts() ):
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?>>
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<div class="press-featured-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('', array('class' => 'th')); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="blog-post">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<div class="entry-summery">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
<footer>
<?php $tag = get_the_tags(); if (!$tag) { } else { ?><p><?php the_tags(); ?></p><?php } ?>
</footer>
</div>
<hr />
</div>
<?php endwhile;
else: ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif;
wp_reset_query();
?>
</div>
</div>
I believe the issue is your syntax with the two loops.
You're missing the if statement before the while condition
You're trying to load your $loop loop inside the standard page or post loop.
Try this instead:
<?php
$case_studies = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'case_study', 'posts_per_page' => 9 ) );
if ( $case_studies->have_posts() ) : ?>
<div class="customer-section case-study">
<div class="case-study-container">
<h2>Case Studies</h2>
<?php while ( $case_studies->have_posts() ) : $case_studies->the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?>>
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<div class="press-featured-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('', array('class' => 'th')); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="blog-post">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<div class="entry-summary">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
<footer>
<?php if (get_the_tags()) { ?>
<p><?php the_tags(); ?></p>
<?php } ?>
</footer>
</div>
<hr />
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
this is what worked for me. You don't need to end the while loop if it's inside the WP_Query. All you have to do is close the if statement for the main div you want to show, add the while for the repeating section and if it doesn't work, I'd try deleting the conditions you have set on your footer.
<?php $loop = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'case_study', 'posts_per_page' => 9 ) ); if($loop->have_posts()): ?>
<div class="customer-section case-study">
<div class="case-study-container">
<h2>Case Studies</h2>
<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class(); ?>>
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<div class="press-featured-image">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('', array('class' => 'th')); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="blog-post">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<div class="entry-summery">
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
<footer>
<?php $tag = get_the_tags(); if (!$tag) { } else { ?><p><?php the_tags(); ?></p><?php } ?>
</footer>
</div>
<hr />
</div>
<?php } wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
after adding the function of pagination to Functions.php and recall it in template-product-listing.php
there is nothing shown in result.
I have a big problom with this...
could you find and resolve the problem?

if your sure there is a post_type called products and there is posts in it...
try:
<div id="portfolio-items" class="row">
<?php $ci_product_query = new WP_Query(array('post_type'=>'product', 'posts_per_page'=> 4); ?>
<?php if ( $ci_product_query-> have_posts() ) : while ( $ci_product_query->have_posts() ) : $ci_product_query->the_post(); ?>
You know you are starting a new wp_query for every post in have_posts() ? you might want to rethink what you are trying to achieve!
