the_post();
?>
<?php the_content()?>
<?php endif;?>
But the videos are not showing in my posts.why?
I want to show it in using excert()
You can have a try like this.
Your theme may be using <?php the_excerpt();?> instead of <?php the_content();?> in its index.php template files. Try editing the index.php and replacing <?php the_excerpt();?> with <?php the_content();?>. Or add your video to the option Excerpt field on each Post.
<?php while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endif;?>

I used the following code in my page template:
<?php
while(have_posts()):the_post();
the_content();
?>
But nothing is displayed. The loop is not working. I'm sure that, there is sufficient information as content in my template page.
You should use if condition to check if post exists else skip the loop. Make sure to ON the error log and check the exact error.
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
/**
* Template Name: My Template
*/
the_post();
the_content();
?>
If you save the following code as a page template and call the page template into a page by choosing it, then the page will show the page content without any hassle.
Note: it's THE minimal bit of code.
use the following code
Try using wp_reset_query()
<?php
wp_reset_query();
while(have_posts()):the_post();
the_content();
endwhile;
?>
I'd like my homepage to display my latest posts which are portfolio projects of mine. Beneath these project thumbnails I've got my static content which I'm using the Repeater add-on from Advanced Custom Fields to grab. I cant get it all to work on the same page... either get the blog to work or the ACF stuff to work. Never both because one needs to be a designated static page and one needs to be a posts page. I don't understand how to tie it together and make it appear as one page.
I've experimented with the settings in the reading panel..
I've tried using front-page.php
I've read up on the WP hierarchy etc
I've tried using templates...
I've tried wp_reset_postdata(); which I read about elsewhere on Stack Overflow.
What settings must I use in the reading panel. Do I need to use a template file?
Here's the code I'm working with, I've split the code between templates and different files already, but just for ease of reading its all together here (maybe that's the right way to do it anyway, I wouldn't know..)
<!-- The posts/portfolio items -->
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div>
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<ul>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<li>
<!-- Permalink,title and post thumbnail here (omitted) -->
</li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php else: ?>
<h2>No Posts found</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<!-- Now for the ACF Stuff -->
<?php if(get_field('care_list')): ?>
<?php while(has_sub_field('care_list')): ?>
<div class="grid_2 what-i-care-about gap">
<div class="important-img-container">
<?php the_sub_field('care_list_image'); ?>
</div>
<h3><?php the_sub_field('care_list_title'); ?></h3>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Please help a frustrated learner! Thanks in advance.
It looks like you're going to need to add the post id of your 'home page' (the one with the ACF repeater on it) to the get_field() function like so:
<?php $post_id = **post_id_of_your_homepage_here**; ?>
<?php if(get_field('care_list', $post_id)): ?>
<?php while(has_sub_field('care_list')): ?>
<div class="grid_2 what-i-care-about gap">
<div class="important-img-container">
<?php the_sub_field('care_list_image'); ?>
</div>
<h3><?php the_sub_field('care_list_title'); ?></h3>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
This is because the $post_id parameter defaults to the current post being brought up by wordpress, which means ACF is looking for the repeater on the last Portfolio item/post you are displaying. If you set the $post_id parameter to the ID of your homepage, ACF will instead look for the repeater on that page.

If I'm understanding correctly, you have a bunch of posts and you want to display a list of them with title and post thumbnail on your homepage, and then display a custom field you've assigned to the homepage underneath the list of posts?
Step 1: Create a new page template by copying page.php, changing the name to homepage.php and adding this to the top:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Homepage
*/ ?>
Step 2: Crete a Wordpress page called "Homepage" and in the attributes module in the right sidebar of the page creation tool, select "Homepage" as your page template.
Step 3: In your reading settings, change the front page from posts page to "Homepage." Now your homepage is your page called "Homepage."
Step 4: Make something like this the full code on your new page template homepage.php. It will output your posts list followed by your page custom field:
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if(get_field('repeater_field_name')): ?>
<?php while(has_sub_field('repeater_field_name')): ?>
<?php the_sub_field('sub_field_1'); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
My code:
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="posts" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
<h2>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h2>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content();?>
</div>
</div><!--post end-->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<h3>no content</h3>
<?php endif; ?>
I put the code into my customed wordpress theme file single.php. Why it can't output the post content, it can output the post title. thank you.
You can try the following to see if it works instead of the_content
<?php echo wpautop($post->post_content); ?> // content with p tags
<?php echo $post->post_content; ?> //without p tags
Also an option
<?php echo wpautop( get_the_content() ); ?> // content with p tags
see if that works for you.
When developing Wordpress themes it's advisable for you to switch the debug mode (found on your installation's root in wp-config.php) to true. This will alert you if you have any errors.
In your case, try out the <?php the_excerpt(); ?>.
Also, this may sound a bit dumb, but do you actually have posts? Not pages or rather content in that post?
Many a times i have come across queries from developers or first time theme developers about not able to show the_content() on their custom template page.
The issue is that the_content() function runs inside the WP loop so for example
if (have_posts()) {
while (have_posts()) {
the_post();
the_content();
}
} ?>
This will work, but in some cases you want to call the function outside the loop – the solution for that is:
echo $post->post_content;
Could we hide our full content in wordpress single page ?
Normally; i want to some text for all users instead of full posts on my single.php
Like;
If you read full post Please write your opinion :)
If user commented a post i want to display full posts to commenter is that possible or not ?
any help thanks
Simple Single.php
<?php get_header();?>
<?php the_post(); ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php get_footer();?>
So I have a page called "latest news" and using a custom template t_latest_news.php
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="latest-news" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php edit_post_link('Edit this page','<p class="edit-link">','</p>'); ?>
</div><!-- /.latest-news -->
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
I've created a page item and put some content into that page. Now, I want to show the content on the sidebar. How can I do that please?
I've tried something like:
<?php include(get_query_template('t_latest_news.php')); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . 't_latest_news.php'); ?>
<?php get_query_template('t_latest_news.php') ?>
<?php get_template_part( 't_latest_news.php' ); ?>
But none of them works. HELP!
<?php query_posts('page_id=76'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) { the_post(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
It works with "page_id" but not pagename. any idea?
To query a specific page by name you do this:
<?php
query_posts('pagename=about'); //retrieves the about page only
?>
You should remove the .php at the end so that it reads t_latest_news
I was just showing this as an example, please be advised:
The query_posts function is intended to be used to modify the main page Loop only. It is not intended as a means to create secondary Loops on the page. If you want to create separate Loops outside of the main one, you should use get_posts() instead. Use of query_posts on Loops other than the main one can result in your main Loop becoming incorrect and possibly displaying things that you were not expecting.
