Hi Im trying to make my first wordpress website. i have been trying to bring bat posts from two different categories and display them on the same page. I have it bring the posts back but it keeps putting them in a random order. im wanting a with posts from one categorie and a underneath with posts from another category.
heres what i have got so far
<?php get_head(); ?>
<div id="container">
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_banner(); ?>
<div class=" center content" role="main">
<div id="posts">
<div class="news">
<?php query_posts('catname=news&showposts=3'); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); the_title(); the_content();
endwhile;?>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<div class="msghead">
<?php query_posts('catname=msghead&showposts=1'); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); the_title(); the_content();
endwhile;?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sidebardiv">
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<div class="clear">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
</div>
Have you tried the order and orderby query parameters?

Your code might go something like this which orders by date, descending:
<?php query_posts('cat=news&showposts=3&orderby=date'); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); the_title(); the_content();
endwhile;?>

I want my search results to show an image of the product. Currently the search results only show a text link. My wordpress theme is Intuition Pro and the website is https://heritagecountrypottery.com. I am also using the Ivory search wordpress plugin
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="main" class="main">
<div class="container">
<section id="content" class="content">
<?php do_action('cpotheme_before_content'); ?>
<?php if(have_posts()): while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<article class="search-result" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h4 class="search-title heading">
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h4>
<div class="search-byline">
<?php the_permalink(); ?>
</div>
</article>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php cpotheme_numbered_pagination(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php do_action('cpotheme_after_content'); ?>
</section>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
I have searched online for a solution but have not found one that works with my theme
You can get the post thumbnail like this
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ): ?>
<div class="search-thumbnail">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</a>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
You can add it before the heading, but you need to figure out the CSS rules you have to apply to make it looks good.
I have the following code in my single.php which outputs the following links
<div class="dt"><?php echo get_the_date();?></div>
<div class="cat">
<?php the_category(', ');?>
</div>
<div class="tag">
<?php the_tags();?>
</div>
<div class="arc">
Archives
</div>
both links to category and tag are working producing output via category.php and tag.php, however, I can't figure it out how to link to archive.php where I plan to show post archive
Just to let you know there is no full archive page like you describe created by default.
Refer to this link: https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_an_Archive_Index
<?php
/*
Template Name: Archives
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id="container">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php the_post(); ?>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<?php get_search_form(); ?>
<h2>Archives by Month:</h2>
<ul>
<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
</ul>
<h2>Archives by Subject:</h2>
<ul>
<?php wp_list_categories(); ?>
</ul>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Access the archives like this:
<?php wp_get_archives('type=yearly'); ?>
to learn wordpress development, I'm building a wordpress theme from scratch .
Now i want to add pagination on my category page but the problem is:
when i click on older-post-link the url change from "http://localhost/wordpress4/category/bloc1/" to "http://localhost/wordpress4/category/bloc1/page/2/" but it take me to a blank page instead of showing the other posts.
this is the code on the category.php
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="container">
<?php
$counter = 1; //start counter
$grids = 3; //Grids per row
global $query_string; //Need this to make pagination work
/*Setting up our custom query (In here we are setting it to show 12 posts per page and eliminate all sticky posts) */
query_posts($query_string . '&caller_get_posts=1&posts_per_page=4');
if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
<?php
//Show the left hand side column
if($counter == 1) :
?>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
<?php
elseif($counter == 2) :
?>
<div class="col-md-4 border2">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
<?php
elseif($counter == $grids) :
?>
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php
$counter = 0;
endif;
$counter++;
endwhile;
?>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 text-left">
<?php next_posts_link('<< Older post'); ?>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 text-right">
<?php previous_posts_link('Newer post >>'); ?>
</div>
<?php
endif;
?>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
I noticed that if i add the code below to my index.php the pagination work also on the category page.
but the second category page("http://localhost/wordpress4/category/bloc1/page/2/") will take the markup of index.php so the posts will not be in a grid format like the first category page.
global $query_string; //Need this to make pagination work
/*Setting up our custom query (In here we are setting it to show 12 posts per page and eliminate all sticky posts) */
query_posts($query_string . '&caller_get_posts=1&posts_per_page=4');
also on the category page the older post-link show up between rows instead of showing at the bottom of the pages.
finally this is the code on my index.php
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-8">
<?php
if(have_posts()):
while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<small><?php the_category(); ?></small>
</a>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
<hr/>
<?php endwhile;
endif;
?>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4">
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Thank You.
Use this code, may be it will solve your problem
<?php
// the query to set the posts per page to 3
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array('posts_per_page' => 3, 'paged' => $paged );
query_posts($args); ?>
<!-- the loop -->
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<!-- rest of the loop -->
<!-- the title, the content etc.. -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<!-- pagination -->
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12>"
<div class="col-xs-6 text-left"><?php next_posts_link(); ?></div>
<div class="col-xs-6 text-right"><?php previous_posts_link(); ?></div>
</div>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<!-- No posts found -->
<?php endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>

After a lot of searching i was able to find a solution .
The problem was that the The "Blog pages show at most" in the wordpress reading settings was interfering with the "posts_per_page=4" that i declared through the query_posts().
The solution :
I deleted the "query_posts()" because it is best to use the WP_Query() or the pre_get_posts filter.
for me even with using wp_query i couldnt get the pagination to work so i tried using the pre_get_posts filter and it worked .
so in the category.php i deleted the query_posts and used just the normal loop.
this is my new code in the category.php
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="container">
<?php
$counter = 1; //start counter
$grids = 3; //Grids per row
if(have_posts()) :
while(have_posts()) : the_post();
?>
<?php
//Show the left hand side column
if($counter == 1) :
?>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(' '); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
<?php
elseif($counter == 2) :
?>
<div class="col-md-4 border2">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(' '); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
<?php
elseif($counter == $grids) :
?>
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="center">
<div class="postimage">
<?php the_custom_logo(); ?>
</div>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<h4><?php the_category(' '); ?></h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php
$counter = 0;
endif;
?>
<?php
$counter++;
endwhile;
?>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 text-left ">
<?php next_posts_link('<< Older post'); ?>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 text-right ">
<?php previous_posts_link('Newer post >>'); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php
endif;
?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Then I added the pre_get_posts action on my function.php
this is the code:
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', function ( $q )
{
if ( !is_admin() // Very important, otherwise back end queries will be affected as well
&& $q->is_main_query() // Very important, we just need to modify the main query
&& $q->is_category() // Only target category pages
) {
$q->set( 'posts_per_page', 2 );
}
});
I hope my answer will help someone who have the same problem i had even if my answer is not so well explained.
for more info search for something like this:
using pagination with the wp_query
using pre_get_posts to set pagination for a custom page.
It will be so nice if a developer could explain my solution in more details and give us more information about using pre_get_posts to set pagination for a custom page.
I created my own template in WordPress, but the loop entries does not work. I would like to entries work on one of the subpages. I also added entries.
This is my code of my subpage. Please help me. I don't know what is wrong. I added a picture under the code.
<?php include 'header.php'; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

The problem is that:
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
is using the current page's have_posts query.. That means that it probably will just show whatever that current page template's content would be.
Instead, you'll want to create an entirely new query object and call these functions on it like so:
<?php
$the_query = new WP_Query( array('posts_per_page' => 10 ) ); //Create our new custom query
if ($the_query->have_posts()) : while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="news-box">
<div class="news-list-content">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<?php the_content('czytaj dalej'); ?>
</div>
<!-- all your other markup goes here.... -->
</div>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); //Restore the original postdata for this page, if needed later ?>
Good morning, I have found myself in a bit of a dilemma! I am creating a Wordpress theme using Twitter Bootstrap and I am generating the members for the "Meet the Team" page via Wordpress "Posts" I can only fit 3 entries in 1 row... I.E
<div class="row">
<div class="span4"></div>
<div class="span4"></div>
<div class="span4"></div>
</div>
But anymore than 3 entries per a row will break the row, so I need to generate a new row for every 3 entries. How can I do this?
Here is my PHP code for outputting the entries.
<?php query_posts('category_name=members&orderby=date'); ?>
<div class="row-fluid">
<ul class="thumbnails">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<li class="span4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<?php // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.the_post_thumbnail();
?>
<div class="pad">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
Try this
<?php query_posts('category_name=members&orderby=date'); ?>
<div class="row-fluid">
<ul class="thumbnails">
<?php
$cnt =0;
if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
if($cnt%3==0){
echo "</ul></div><div class='row-fluid'><ul clsas='thumbnails'>";
}
?>
<li class="span4">
<div class="thumbnail">
<?php // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.the_post_thumbnail();
?>
<div class="pad">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<?php
$cnt++;
endwhile; ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
