Can Somebody Help how to pull alt text from wordpress images in the following code??
<?php $logos = get_field('upload_logos');
$size = 'full';
if( $logos ): ?>
<div>
<div>
<?php foreach( $logos as $logo ): ?>
<div>
<div class="ccrc-logo-box-inner"><img src="<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url( $logo['ID'], $size ); ?>" alt=""></div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
You are using get_field() function, so I guess you have 'Advanced Custom Fields' plugin. You want to get the data of a field with type of image. So looking at the documentation:
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/image/
You can access the alt text from the field object, the same way you already did it with $logo['ID'] before.
<img src="<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url( $logo['ID'], $size ); ?>" alt="<?php echo $logo['alt']; ?>">
You are using the wp_get_attachment_image() function to output your url
Documentation of wordpress tells us you can pass the alt as a parameter to fetch and output it:

I would like to display a few post titles from a specific category on homepage. First one have to be with a small thumbnail and excerpt and rest of them just title. Below this section I would like to have a link clicking on which will show all the posts under this category.
like this http://i.stack.imgur.com/N5jUA.jpg
As arslaan ejaz said, you can use wp_query. But I think that answer is not enough for your question. You want to show first post with thumbnail and others with titles only right?. It can be done by php count. Here is what I am using on my site. check below code, it will show first post with thumbnail, title and excerpt, other three posts with title only from category ID 1.
<div class="main-div">
<div class="thumbnaildiv">
<?php $count=1; $query = new WP_Query('showposts=4&cat=1&offset=0'); if ($query->have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post(); ?>
<?php if($count==1){ ?>
<h2>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_title(); ?></a>
</h2>
<div class="thumb">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail'); ?>
</a>
<p><?php the_excerpt(); ?> ...</p>
</div>
</div><!--div with thumbnail, title, and excerpt end-->
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<div class="without-thumb">
<ul>
<?php } if($count>1){ ?>
<li>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_title(); ?></a>
</li>
<?php } if($count==4){ ?>
</ul>
<?php } ?>
<?php $count++; endwhile; else: endif; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
</div><!--div without thumbnail end-->
</div><!--main div end-->
The div's I have used is for information purpose only. You can change and style it as desired.
Use WP-Query:
<?php
$args = array('cat'=>1);
// The Query
$query = new WP_Query( $args );
// The Loop
if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
$query->the_post();
echo '<li>' . get_the_title() . '</li>';
echo '<li>' . the_permalink() . '</li>';
echo '<li>' . the_excerpt() . '</li>';
}
} else {
// no posts found
}
/* Restore original Post Data */
wp_reset_postdata();
It will list all posts of category 1, with title, permalink, and excerpt
More info: wp_query
I can recommend you to add 'Elementor' plugin. With this plugin, you can add 'read more' and split your text. If you add 'read more' in the beginning of your text then there will be shown only title and under the title a 'read more' link.
Here is the Screenshot
I would like to list out the alphabet on a custom post type archive page, and by clicking on a letter in the alphabet it would link to a url that only displays posts that begin with that particular letter. Not necessarily worried about doing it ajax style or anything. Just a simple url will work.
I have this functionality on a site I developed a couple years ago (http://glenwoodia.com/business-directory/), but that was using a big business directory plugin. With this particular site I'm just using a custom post type with custom fields.
My full loop currently looks like this:
<?php
$temp = $wp_query;
$wp_query= null;
$wp_query = new WP_Query();
$wp_query->query('orderby=title'.'&order=ASC'.'&showposts=15'.'&post_type=businesses'.'&paged='.$paged);
?>
<div class="content">
<div class="main-area-wide">
<div class="internal-wide">
<div class="navigation-top">
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
</div>
<div class="business-wrapper">
<h1>Business Directory</h1>
<?php while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<div class="business">
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<p><?php $key="address"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?><br />
<?php $key="website"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?><br />
<strong><?php $key="phone"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?></strong></p>
<p><?php $key="short_description"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?></p>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
<div class="navigation-btm">
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Sorry, this should be added as a comment, but I don't have the rep to do that. Anyway, I believe this is what you need and best of all it's documented well. I have used it before and found it pretty easy to understand:

Basically the same answer is also posted in Stack Exchange, be sure to scroll down to the EDIT part of the answer as that part explains the using a taxonomy thing that she did in the answer above:

I am trying to tweak NextGen Gallery plugin, and in particular the file nextgen-gallery/view/gallery.php to achieve displaying the gallery description, when I view the gallery.
So, in this file, I have added the following lines:
....
<?php if (!defined ('ABSPATH')) die ('No direct access allowed'); ?>
<?php if (!empty ($gallery)) : ?>
<?php /** Lots of stuff added here by Mpampirina **/ ?>
<p> You are here: <a class="Link" href="<?php echo get_permalink(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?></a> >
<?php $album = nggdb::find_album( get_query_var('album') ); ?>
<?php echo $album->name ?> > <?php echo $gallery->title ?>
</p>
<div class="ngg-description">
<p>Here I want to add the gallery description text. So I try with:
<?php echo $gallery->gallerydesc ?> . Also I try with:
<?php echo $gallery->galdesc ?> .
I get no description, whatsoever...
</p>
</div>
<?php /** End of stuff added by Mpampirina **/ ?>
<div class="ngg-galleryoverview" id="<?php echo $gallery->anchor ?>">
...
And here is the output:
The gallery description of course is not empty. There is text added, in the 'Manage Gallery" menu:
So, is there anybody who can see what I am doing wrong, or maybe point me to another question page that I might have missed? It would be very helpful! :-)
Thank you in advance
I just dealt with the same problem...
$gallery->description
I need to display link after each comment, when you click that link, a new page displays that single coment on a new page.
Is that possible?
I answered your exact question over on WordPress Answers (also a StackExchange site) just yesterday. You can find that answer here. It involved the following four steps:
Setting up the URL Rewriting by adding a query_var, rewrite_tag and a permastruct,
Being sure to flush the rewrite rules in a plugin's activation hook or manually,
Adding a parse_query filter hook to set the query_vars's post to be the comment's post and to disable sticky posts for the query,
Adding a template_include filter hook to filter the template file name to load a template specific template file for a single comment, and lastly
To create the comment template file as /wp-content/themes/%your-theme%/comment.php.
Again, you can find the answer over here.
Hope this helps.

UPDATE:
Below is the full content that I had also posted on WordPress Answers:
There are numerous different ways to accomplish this, some more polished than others and practically all of them with potential for conflict with other plugins, but ignoring all that here's one way that is pretty close to what you asked for. :)
This solution will support a URL format like the following where %comment_id% is the numeric ID of your comment from the wp_comments table:
http://example.com/comments/%comment_id%/
First you'll need to configure your URL rewriting using the following code. Hopefully it is reasonably self-explanitory but don't hesitate to ask:
$wp->add_query_var('comment_id'); // Add the "behind-the-scenes" query variable that WordPress will use
$wp_rewrite->add_rewrite_tag('%comment_id%', '([0-9]+)','comment_id='); // Define a rewrite tag to match that assigns to the query var
$wp_rewrite->add_permastruct('comment-page', 'comments/%comment_id%'); // Define a URL pattern to match the rewrite tag.
You'll also either need to call this code in a plugin activation hook to flush the rules, or if it's your site you can just save permalinks in the admin console's Settings > Permalinks settings area:
global $wp_rewrite;
$wp_rewrite->flush_rules(false);
Next add a parse_query filter hook. This will be called after WordPress has inspected the query. It tests to see if your added comment_id query_var set and if so it tests to see if you are on the desired URL. If yes then it loads the comment array using get_comment() in order to set the 'p' parameter (which should be set to a post ID) to the post that is related to the comment. That way when WordPress runs the query that it is going to run no matter what at least it loads something you'll need in your comment.php theme template file below and you won't have to ran another query later when you need it. This code also tells WordPress to ignore sticky posts using the oddly named caller_get_posts option:
add_filter( 'parse_query', 'my_parse_query' );
function my_parse_query( $query ) {
global $wp;
if (isset($query->query['comment_id']) && substr($wp->request,0,9)=='comments/') {
$comment = get_comment($query->query['comment_id']);
$query->query_vars['p'] = $comment->comment_post_ID; // Causes the comment's post to be loaded by the query.
$query->query_vars['caller_get_posts'] = true; // Keeps sticky posts from invading into the top of our query.
}
}
Still next you'll need to hook the code in /wp-includes/template-loader.php using the template_include filter. This will be called after WordPress has both inspected the query and loaded the post for the comment. Here you'll first check again for comment_id in the query_var and also for the URL being the one you want. If so we replace the /index.php template page with /comment.php which is a theme template file you will need to create:
add_filter( 'template_include', 'my_template_include' );
function my_template_include( $template ) {
global $wp,$wp_query;
if (isset($wp_query->query['comment_id']) && substr($wp->request,0,9)=='comments/') {
$template = str_replace('/index.php','/comment.php',$template);
}
return $template;
}
Lastly now you need to create your theme template file which I've chosen to call /comment.php. Since it's your theme you'll want to make it look like you want but here is an example to get you started:
<?php
/*
* File: /wp-content/themes/my-theme/comment.php
*/
global $wp_query,$post;
$comment_id = $wp_query->query['comment_id'];
$comment = get_comment($comment_id);
$permalink = get_permalink($post->ID);
get_header();
?>
<div id="container">
<div id="comment-<?php echo $comment_id; ?>" class="comment">
<p>Comment by: <span class="comment-author">
<?php echo $comment->comment_author; ?></span>
on <span class="comment-date"><?php echo date("D M jS Y", strtotime($comment->comment_date)); ?></span>
at <span class="comment-time"><?php echo date("h:ia", strtotime($comment->comment_date)); ?></span>
</p>
<p>About: <?php echo $post->post_title; ?></p>
<blockquote><?php echo $comment->comment_content; ?></blockquote>
</div>
</div>
<?php
get_sidebar();
get_footer();
Any questions? Just ask.
Hope this helps.
P.S. All of the code I describing above can either go in your theme's functions.php file and/or in a plugin of your own. A caveat is for the URL rewrite flushing rules that should go in a plugin activation hook if you are going to include it instead us just flushing them manually in the permalinks section of the admin console. I didn't show how to register an activation hook do but if you want to learn more you can read about it here.
(New edited version after OP's comments)
There are many ways to do this. In theory this is the simplest, but maybe not 'most appropriate according to WordPress' way. Take this as a starting point. I haven't tested it, so you may encounter an error or two that should be solvable with some minor tweaks. Let me know if you get stumped and I'll do my best. So conceptually...
You should copy the page.php template file and rename it to 'comments_page.php' (or whatever you like). Open this file in your code editor and find where the following appears: (or create it if it does not exist)
/*Template Name: page*/
and change it to
/*Template Name: comments_page*/
Now open your WordPress admin area and create a new page. Call it whatever you want but don't add any content. In the right hand column, select the template that the page uses from the "Page Template" drop down menu. Select 'comments_page' (or whatever you listed as the template name). This tells WordPress to use your file to show this specific page instead of the default page template. Save the page and note the page_id that WordPress generates.
Now, find your theme's comments template, usually 'comments.php'. Find the function wp_list_comments();. We are going to add the name of a custom function that will control the display of your comments as an argument to this function. For an example, go to the twenty-ten theme's files, open comments.php and you'll see what that looks like:
wp_list_comments( array( 'callback' => 'twentyten_comment' ) );
Open the twenty-ten theme's functions.php and find
function twentyten_comment()
Copy that entire function and paste it into your theme's functions file. Change the name to' my_comment()', and add that to the wp_list_comments function call like this:
wp_list_comments( array('callback'=>'my_comment'));
In your newly-created 'my_comment()' function in your functions.php file, add a link where you want to the separate page of comments (comments_page.php) using get_page_link() and a query var named 'commentID' and the comments ID.
View this comment
Now to inappropriately add php logic to a template file. Once you understand how this works, you can create a function in your functions.php file and then call it in the theme file...
On comments_page.php ,use $_GET['commentID'] to retrieve the comment's id value from the url, and pass it to get_comment($commentID) to retrieve the single comment and display it on a single page.
if(isset($_GET['commentID'])){$commentID = $_GET['commentID'];}
$comment = get_comment($commentID);
Now you have all the single comments information in the $comment variable as an object.
You can decide how to display the comment, but to start, I recommend copying the contents of your theme's comments template to keep things consistent. It will show exactly the same thing the post page shows, but it sounds like this page is intended more for the permalink to a single comment that you link to from somewhere else.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you run into a snag.
