I create a loop in Wordpress with the condition like this:
Display a specific post format (example: video)
Limiting the post number. In this case, I only want to display 2 posts.
Here my code:
<?php $i = 1; if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts() && $i < 3) : the_post(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content-video', get_post_format() ); ?>
<?php $i++; endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'none' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
I already have file name content-video.php.
Unfortunately, the loop does not work. Only displayed the first post, not a specific post (video post format) with template from content-video.php.
Appreciate for any help, or alternative code. Thanks in advance.
My remarks about your code:
I think you have bad wrapping for if else while statements. You are missing an endif at the end in the case your approach is correct.
Why use inside your code the i variable since you can customize any query in WP, especially for number of post using the parameter posts_per_page.
Why not to use the loop inside content-video.php and write only:get_template_part('content-video', get_post_format()); Like in single.php and loop-single.php the themes provided with wordpress installation (twenty themes) .
Good luck
the best way would be to get posts of "video" post format from a query, but I'm not sure how:)
As a workaround you could do this inside the loop:
if (!has_post_format('video'))
continue;

I'm racking my brain trying to think why this isn't working. Seems to be right to me but I must be missing something.
<?php
if( have_rows('cta_box') ):
while( have_rows('cta_box') ) : the_row();
echo get_sub_field('cta_header');
echo get_sub_field('cta_content');
endwhile;
endif;
?>
Am I doing something dumb?
Thanks
It's a group field, not repeater. This'd help.
So in your case you'd use it like this.
$cta = get_field('cta_box');
echo $cta['cta_header'];
echo $cta ['cta_content];
your code is proper, i think the issue is where you want to display like in the specific template or any where in the page, you just need to assign with the template or page or post whatever its will display.
Here is the code that got it working. Can someone explain? Is the code above this ACF effecting what is returned?
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
$cta = get_field('state_call_to_action');
echo $cta['call_to_action_heading'];
echo $cta['call_to_action_body'];
endwhile; ?>
Can help somebody. I spent several hours to find solution but without results
I tried to display the list of categories on homepage wordpress blog thru following code
<?php $category = Mage::registry('wordpress_category') ?>
<?php if ($category): ?>
<?php echo $category->getId() ?>: <?php echo $category->getName() ?>
<?php endif; ?>
But the method
Mage::registry('wordpress_category')
always return null.
I found that, i should probably be using the Fishpig_Wordpress_Block_Category_View. But i dont know where i should put it.
The following code will retrieve the current category when viewing a category page in your blog:
<?php Mage::registry('wordpress_category') ?>
This is not what you need. To view a list of categories, you could create a custom collection using the following:
<?php $categories = Mage::getResourceModel('wordpress/post_category_collection') ?>
A better way would be to use the category widget block:
<block type="wordpress/sidebar_widget_categories" name="wp.categories" template="wordpress/sidebar/widget/categories.phtml" />
You can create this in PHP using the following code:
<?php echo Mage::getSingleton('core/layout')
->createBlock('wordpress/sidebar_widget_categories')
->setTemplate('wordpress/sidebar/widget/categories.phtml')
->toHtml() ?>
The above code uses the default template, however, feel free to use your own custom template.
I have a while loop in my wordpress site. How to print its query details ?
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
I tried, but not working:
print_r($GLOBALS['wp_query']->request);
Add this in your functions.php then add ?debug=sql after the url, for example
http://someUrl.com/something?debug=sql
Or
http://localhost/localCopy?debug=sql
Also <?php echo $GLOBALS['wp_query']->request; ?> should work, just put it right after the loop if you didn't it before.
What I need - The code to perform the following:
I am trying to setup a WordPress template that will display all the comments that have been posted to my blog. How do I pull all comments and have all the same formatting that is applied to comments under a single post? Such as the formatting that occurs when comments are displayed using the comments.php template.
Note I want to pull all the comments from my blog to a single page. I still want the comment pagination but instead of having 20 comments under post #1, 20 under post #2, etc. I want to have all 40 show up at one time on one page.
You want to use the get_comments() function.
<?php foreach (get_comments() as $comment): ?>
<div><?php echo $comment->comment_author; ?> said: "<?php echo $comment->comment_content; ?>".</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
See also the apply_filters() function to apply comment output filters to specific fields.
<?php echo apply_filters('comment_text', $comment->comment_content); ?>
EDIT:
For pagination, you can use the offset and number parameters of the get_comments() arguments:
<?php
$args = array(
'number'=>20,
'offset'=>0,
'status'=>'approve',
);
foreach (get_comments($args) as $comment) {
// ...
}
?>
I am trying to create a loop that loads a random image from any posts, whilst also retrieving the excerpt of a specific page. I have done the random post part, but cannot get it to retrieve the page excerpt... I think I may need to query the pages in their own loop but I'm not sure how to do this. I have installed the function to get page excerpt support etc. but I think I am doing something wrong within the loop, any help would be appreciated.
<div class="postimage">
<?php if (have_posts()) :
query_posts('showposts=1&orderby=rand');
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_post_thumbnail('blog-post-image'); ?>
<div class="borderimage"></div>
<div class="tagline"><h1><?php the_excerpt('$page_id=8'); ?> </h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; else : endif; ?>
query_posts replaces the global $wp_query, which you don't want to do since you want to keep that query for your page. Try this instead...
if (have_posts()){
while(have_posts()){
the_post(); //global $post now has the page in it
$args = array("posts_per_page"=>1,"orderby"=>"rand");
$random_posts = get_posts($args); //returns an array
$random_post = $random_posts[0];
//do your stuff...
//$post contains the original page
//$random_post contains the random post
}
}
