I added a code in my php and i don't know what is wrong, it shows only 2 posts but I got 10 posts in my WordPress can someone check my code?
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'category_name' => 'appetizers',
'post_status' => 'publish'
);
$Loop = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<div class="row">
<?php while ( $Loop->have_posts() ) : $Loop->the_post();?>
<a href="<? the_permalink(); ?>">
<div class="col-sm-3">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php the_field('price'); ?>
</div>
</a>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
add 'posts_per_page' => -1 in $args.
May be it is picking up the number of posts from the 'Setting -> Reading' option in back end.

I have a simple loop on a wordpress homepage that pulls in 3 random articles. It's intermittently rendering the cards inside the other cards instead of 3 separate cards. I feel like it's a timing issue being caused from pulling them in randomly. Is there a way to force them to render separately?
<div class="row">
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'orderby' => 'rand',
'posts_per_page' => '3'
);
$loop = new WP_Query($args); ?>
<?php if ( $loop->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div class="card" data-url="<?php echo the_permalink(); ?>">
<div class="card-body">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('homepage-thumbs', array( 'class' => 'aligncenter' )); ?>
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<span><i class="fal fa-user"></i> by <?php the_author(); ?></span>
<p></p>
<p><?php echo substr(get_the_content(), 0, 128); ?>...</p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
Your code works in my test. However, I would use the wp_trim_words to create your excerpt rather than what you did, which could cut a word in the middle.
<div class="row">
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'orderby' => 'rand',
'posts_per_page' => '3'
);
$loop = new WP_Query($args); ?>
<?php if ( $loop->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div class="card" data-url="<?php echo the_permalink(); ?>">
<div class="card-body">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('homepage-thumbs', array( 'class' => 'aligncenter' )); ?>
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<span><i class="fal fa-user"></i> by <?php the_author(); ?></span>
<p></p>
<p><?php
$theContent = get_the_content();
// strip out any shortcodes from the excerpt
$theContent = strip_shortcodes( $theContent );
// wp_trim_words($content, number_of_words, read_more_text)
echo wp_trim_words( $theContent, 30 , '...' );?></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
Try to add wp_reset_postdata after your loop, like
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
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();
?>
So basically, I'm working on a custom wordpress theme. What i'm trying to do is to set an icon for each category. If the loop starts and the post has a category, It'll show up with the icon that it has assigned. Right now it shows the correct icons, but the title and exerpt of the post keeps changing to the name of the page. Here is an example I have three posts math, english and history all of them have the correct icon, but display the name blog post page instead of math, english, or history.
<?php /* Template Name: News Blog Page */ get_header(); ?>
<div id="blog-post-wrapper" class="section_wrapper">
<div class="column three-fourth">
<?php $currentPage = get_query_var('paged');
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'order' => 'DESC',
'posts_per_page' => 9,
'paged' => $currentPage
);
$the_query = new WP_Query($args);
if($the_query -> have_posts()):
while ($the_query -> have_posts()): $the_query -> the_post();
get_template_part('postloopcontent', get_post_format());
endwhile;
echo "<div class='pagination'>";
echo paginate_links(array(
'total' => $the_query -> max_num_pages
));
echo "</div>";
endif;
?>
</div>
<div class="column one-fourth">
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
the top one is my basic layout and it grabs my loop. the bottom one is my loop
<?php
// Standard Post Format
?>
<?php $bgImage = get_the_post_thumbnail_url(); ?>
<div class="column one-third" style="background-image:url(<?php echo $bgImage; ?>);">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="nws-img">
<?php
// Find the first category the post is in.
$categories = get_the_category();
$category = $categories[ 0 ]->term_id;
$imgargs = array(
'cat' => $category,
'post_status' => 'inherit',
'post_type' => 'attachment',
'posts_per_page' => '1'
);
$imgquery = new WP_Query( $imgargs );
if ( $imgquery->have_posts() ) {
while ( $imgquery->have_posts() ) { $imgquery->the_post(); ?>
<div class="category-featured-image">
<?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $post->ID, 'thumbnail' ); ?>
</div>
<?php
}
}
// Reset postdata to restore ordinal query.
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
</a>
<div id="content-box">
<h1> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" > <?php the_title(); ?> </a> </h1>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
</div>
In your loop file, you're resting post data i.e. wp_reset_postdata(); outside the $imgquery loop/condition. If you could wrap the postdata rest function inside the condition, I think that should work.
You code must look like this
<?php
// Standard Post Format
?>
<?php $bgImage = get_the_post_thumbnail_url(); ?>
<div class="column one-third" style="background-image:url(<?php echo $bgImage; ?>);">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="nws-img">
<?php
// Find the first category the post is in.
$categories = get_the_category();
$category = $categories[ 0 ]->term_id;
$imgargs = array(
'cat' => $category,
'post_status' => 'inherit',
'post_type' => 'attachment',
'posts_per_page' => '1'
);
$imgquery = new WP_Query( $imgargs );
if ( $imgquery->have_posts() ) {
while ( $imgquery->have_posts() ) { $imgquery->the_post(); ?>
<div class="category-featured-image">
<?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $post->ID, 'thumbnail' ); ?>
</div>
<?php
}
// Reset postdata to restore ordinal query.
wp_reset_postdata();
}
?>
</a>
<div id="content-box">
<h1> <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" > <?php the_title(); ?> </a> </h1>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
</div>
</div>
I'm trying to display 6 posts from a specific custom post type in Wordpress. Everything is working, except for when I remove the line "$wp_query = new WP_Query();". When missing that line, 20 posts gets displayed in alphabetical order and I have no idea why. wp_reset_postdata() or wp_reset_query() don't seem to do anything.
<?php $wp_query = new WP_Query( ); ?>
<div class="blog-footer row margin-top">
<?php
global $post;
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'blog', 'posts_per_page' => 6 );
$myposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach ( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata( $post ); ?>
<div class="col-md-2 col-sm-4">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
<h4><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
</a>
</div>
<?php endforeach;
wp_reset_postdata();?>
</div>
Happy to get any inputs on why this behaves the way it does. Appreciate it!
global $post is a global variable mostly used by wordpress itself and is used to get contents/ attributes of current post or page mostly..
Read details here
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/$post
try below code.
<div class="blog-footer row margin-top">
<?php
wp_reset_query() ;
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'blog', 'posts_per_page' => 6 );
$myposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach ( $myposts as $b_post ) { ?>
<div class="col-md-2 col-sm-4">
<a href="<?php $b_post->post_name; ?>">
<?php
$image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $b_post->ID ), 'single-post-thumbnail' ); ?>
<img src="<?php echo $image[0] ?>"/>
<h4><?php $b_post->post_title; ?></h4>
</a>
</div>
<?php }
wp_reset_postdata();?>
</div>
I want to add a Wordpress loop for a specific category in a post template that exculdes the current post.
I was suggested to use:
<?php
global $wp_query;
$cat_ID = get_the_category($post->ID);
$cat_ID = $cat_ID[0]->cat_ID;
$this_post = $post->ID;
query_posts(array('cat' => $cat_ID, 'post__not_in' => array($this_post), 'posts_per_page' => 14, 'orderby' => 'rand'));
?>
But I'm having trouble getting it to work.
My loops currently looks like this.
<div class="video">
<?php
$catquery = new WP_Query( 'category_name=video&posts_per_page=4' );
while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<div>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<p class="more">M<br>O<br>R<br>E</p>
</div>
Try this code.
$postid = get_the_ID();
$args=array(
'post__not_in'=> array($postid),
'post_type' => 'post',
'category_name'=>'video',
'post_status' => 'publish',
'posts_per_page' => 4
);
<div class="video">
<?php
$catquery = new WP_Query( $args );
while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<div>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<p class="more">M<br>O<br>R<br>E</p>
</div>
Use
'post__not_in' => array($post->ID)
The two code blocks are using two different techniques for a Wordpress custom loop... the first modifies the global query, and the second creates a new custom query. I've outlined both below with your loop template.
Example with suggested code, global query:
Loop through the global $wp_query object in the loop code:
<div class="video">
<?php
global $wp_query;
$cat_ID = get_the_category($post->ID);
$cat_ID = $cat_ID[0]->cat_ID;
$this_post = $post->ID;
query_posts(array('cat' => $cat_ID, 'post__not_in' => array($this_post), 'posts_per_page' => 14, 'orderby' => 'rand'));
?>
<!-- use the global loop here -->
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<div>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<p class="more">M<br>O<br>R<br>E</p
</div>
Example with original code, custom query:
Loop through the custom query, adding 'post__not_in':
<div class="video">
<?php
$catquery = new WP_Query( 'category_name=video&posts_per_page=4&post__not_in=' . $post->ID );
while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>
<div>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<p class="more">M<br>O<br>R<br>E</p>
</div>
Sorry if my original answer was unclear, I initially thought you were combining the two code blocks.
