Goal : To add a div wrapper for the fields so as to group the fields per result.
So views is displaying all the results as fields and I need to theme it as per each result. So each result will have the name, image ....
You can see the current results view here : http://www.iamvishal.com/dev/prosearch/%20/%20/%20/%20/%20
I tried to theme it using views-view-unformatted.tpl.php file but It won't do anything. I did change the tpl to suit my view such as views-view-unformatted--properityresults--page.tpl.php.
It won't work. Any clues what is going wrong ?
Below is the code:
<?php if (!empty($title)): ?>
<h3><?php print $title; ?></h3>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php foreach ($rows as $id => $row): ?>
<div class="<?php print $classes_array[$id]; ?>">
<?php print $row; ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
The correct template file was views-view--properityresults--page.tpl.php
and not views-view-unformatted--properityresults--page.tpl.php.
cheers,
Vishal
I will mark is solved after a day as per the system settings.

i'm trying to build a navigation for a website, and i'm struggling with it. I'm trying to make a foldable navigation that shows only categories at first, when clicked, they link to the category, and show current category posts only.
I came this far:
<?php
// get all the categories from the database
$cats = get_categories();
// loop through the categries
foreach ($cats as $cat) {
// setup the cateogory ID
$cat_id= $cat->term_id;
// Make a header for the cateogry
echo '<h2><a href="./?cat='.$cat->term_id.'">'.$cat->name.'</h2>';
// create a custom wordpress query
query_posts("cat=$cat_id");
// start the wordpress loop!
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php // create our link now that the post is setup ?>
<?php the_title(); ?><br>
<?php endwhile; ?> <?php endif; // done our wordpress loop. Will start again for each category ?>
<?php } // done the foreach statement ?>
The problem with this is: when i fill in the query so that it only takes the current cat, it displays current cat posts on both my categories.
this is what i want for the nav actually:
graphic design
Other Projects
when clicked on graphic design:
graphic design
Project 1
Project 2
Other Projects
when clicking on Other projects:
graphic design
Other Projects
Project 1
Project 2
so basically:
- when clicking from Index page to a category, only that category should expand
- when clicking the other category, the current category changes, so the previous category collapses and the other one expands.
and a bonus: is it possible, that when on a single post, there expands another level of info? for example, a few custom fields per post. like this:
graphic design
Other Projects
Project 1
custom field 1
custom field 2
…
Project 2
thank you very much
Try this code
<?php $article_categories = get_categories(array(
'child_of' => get_category_by_slug('graphic design')->term_id
));
$talentChildren = get_categories(array('child_of' => get_category_by_slug('Project 1')->term_id));
?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn" role="main">
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<div class="post-list">
<?php foreach($talentChildren as $talent): ?>
<?php
$talentSubChildren = new WP_Query();
$talentSubChildren->query(array('category_name' => $talent->slug));
?>
<h2><?php echo $talent->name; ?></h2>
<ul>
<?php while ($talentSubChildren->have_posts()) : $talentSubChildren->the_post(); ?>
<li>
<?php talent_thumbnail(); ?>
<h4>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</h4>
<p><?php the_excerpt(); ?></p>
read on »
</li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php if($wp_query->max_num_pages!=1):?>
<div class="pagination">
<?php previous_posts_link('« prev') ?>
<span class="current"><?php echo $wp_query->query['paged']; ?></span>
of <span class="total"><?php echo $wp_query->max_num_pages; ?></span>
<?php next_posts_link('next »') ?>
</div><!-- .pagination -->
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
<?php get_search_form(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
Ive gotten a bit further, but i need some help now.
<?php
// get all the categories from the database
$cats = get_categories();
// loop through the categries
foreach ($cats as $cat) {
// setup the cateogory ID
$cat_id= $cat->term_id;
// Make a header for the cateogry
echo '<h2><a href="./?cat='.$cat->term_id.'">'.$cat->name.'</h2>';
// create a custom wordpress query
query_posts("cat=$cat_id"); ?>
<?php if (in_category($cat_id)) { ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php // create our link now that the post is setup ?>
<?php the_title(); ?><br>
<?php endwhile; ?> <?php endif; // done our wordpress loop. Will start again for each category ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } // done the foreach statement ?>
So this is working now: it lists the posts per category, if in the current category, else it doesnt show anything.
now what i still want: i want to add something extra within the loop IF i'm on a single page. I have this code:
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php if (is_single('84')) { ?>
Yes
<?php } else { ?>
no
<?php } ?>
But that would mean i have to break a query in the middle of a loop. and the is_single thing does not work inside a loop / without the query reset.
I want it looking like this with above code:
Graphic Design
project 1 (for example id=84)
Yes
project 2 (for example id=101)
No
thanks
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(); ?>
I am trying to pull latest posts from a specific category.
I am currently able to pull all latest posts and display them the way I want using the code below but I am unable to do the same thing from a specific category.
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div id="content"><div id="circle"><div id="circle_text1"><p><?php the_time('M') ?></p></div>
<div id="circle_text2"><p><?php the_time('dS') ?></p></div></div>
<div id="text"><div id="title"><p><?php the_title(); ?></p></div>
<div id="name"><p>By <?php the_author(); ?></p></div>
<div id="blurb"><p><?php the_content('<br />Read More'); ?></p></div></div>
<div id="line_rule"><p> </p><hr /></div></div>
<?php endwhile; ?><?php else : ?><h2>Not Found</h2><?php endif; ?>
Thanks in advance
This is a basic WP query that resets itself and can be used multiple times in a template. You can add your html to it. showposts is the number of posts to show; -1 shows all posts.
<?php $my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=mycategoryname&showposts=10'); ?>
<?php while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endwhile; ?>
if you are getting posts from database then use order by ID desc that will show latest post on the top. if ID is auto-incremented. like
select * from posts order by ID desc
I do this all the time. This will work:
Change the cat= number to whatever category ID you want to use.
Add html markup as you please and whatever other content you want to pull.
<?php query_posts('cat=4&order=ASC');
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
In the example I am only grabbing the post content, but you could put in the title, meta-data, etc. The important parts are all here.
Try it out.
Add this line of code above your opening IF statement.
<?php query_posts( 'cat=1' ); ?>
And then change the 1 to match the ID of the category you are trying to display.
:)
You can do that by simply by adding this first line to your code:
<?php query_posts( 'category_name=slug_of_your_category&posts_per_page=10' ); ?>
Replace "slug_of_your_category" with the slug of your category, and "10" with the amount of posts you need.
I just installed Views module for Drupal 7 and am trying to find out how to customize it.
So far, I have done the following things.
Created a content type specified views and named it as 'videotest'.
Created a custom theme as 'views-view-list--videotest.tpl.php'
The page is working without a problem.
Here is the custom template code I used (this is the default template from Views):
<?php print $wrapper_prefix; ?>
<?php if (!empty($title)) : ?>
<h3><?php print $title; ?></h3>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php print $list_type_prefix; ?>
<?php foreach ($rows as $id => $row): ?>
<li class="<?php print $classes_array[$id]; ?>"><?php print $row; ?></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php print $list_type_suffix; ?>
<?php print $wrapper_suffix; ?>
How do I prevent Views to format $row for me? I like to format each values in a node myself using foreach.
I tried to set the view style as 'unformatted' with unformatted custom template, but it also style each value for me.
You should to use fields templates not 'Display', 'Style', or 'Row'.
Or you can use both fields in 'Row' template. Ex:
print $fields['you_field_value']->raw;
Name of 'you_field_value' show as part of link in fields list of view display.
Or to get the value of field:
print $fields['field_pretitle_front']->content;
print $fields['your_field_value']->raw;
did not work for me, however the following did in my case.
$row->field_YOUR_FIELD[0]['rendered']['#markup'];
I am trying to set my WordPress homepage to a category but it only allows me to set it to either the latest posts or a static page.
Is it possible to set your homepage as a post category?
I am hoping that you know about how to set static page. So first create an empty .php file and name it whatever you like and put it along the other files (index.php, arhive.php etc).
and then enter following code
<?php
/*
* Template Name: Category based Homepage
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div class="main">
<?php
$cat_ID = '1'; //it should be your category ID, you can get the id of the category by going to categories and edit and then in url you can find the tag_ID.
$posts_to_show = '10'; // number of posts from the category you want to show on homepage
//query_posts("cat=$cat_ID&showposts=$posts_to_show");
$category_posts = new WP_Query("cat=$cat_ID&showposts=$posts_to_show");
//if (have_posts())
if ($category_posts->have_posts())
: $first = true;
?>
<ul class="post-list">
<?php
//while (have_posts()) : the_post();
while ($category_posts->have_posts()) : $category_posts->the_post();
if ($first)
$class = "first-in-row";
else
$class = "";
$first = !$first;
?>
<!-- Start: Post -->
<li <?php post_class($class); ?>>
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<p class="categories"><?php the_category(", "); ?></p>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?> <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit', 'your_theme_text_domain'), '', ''); ?></h2>
<p class="post-meta"><span class="date"><?php the_time(get_option('date_format')) ?></span> <?php if (comments_open()) : ?>, <span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link(_x('0', 'comments number', 'your_theme_text_domain'), _x('1', 'comments number', 'your_theme_text_domain'), _x('%', 'comments number', 'your_theme_text_domain')); ?></span> <?php endif; ?> <span class="author"><?php the_author() ?></span></p>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<p class="more"><?php _e('Read More »» ', 'your_theme_text_domain'); ?></p>
<?php if (has_tag()): ?><p class="tags"><span><?php the_tags(""); ?></span></p><?php endif; ?>
</li>
<!-- End: Post -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php else : ?>
<h2 class="center"><?php _e('Not found', 'your_theme_text_domain'); ?></h2>
<p class="center"><?php _e('Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn\'t here.', 'your_theme_text_domain'); ?></p>
<?php
endif;
//wp_reset_query();
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); //optional?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
and replace $cat_ID and $posts_to_show to your liking. And I have used both query methods adjust it to your needs.
Hope it helps somebody who is looking for similar solution.
You can create a custom template that mimics a category page using get_posts and set a page using that template to home, but it won't be perfectly dynamic in the sense that you have to hard code the category slug or ID into that query. Assuming that you don't want to change that category often, that shouldn't be an issue. Alternatively, you could use wp_safe_redirect in a template to redirect to the category page - that would be if you want the user to be put directly on the real category page, URL and all.
I'm not sure what you mean by having your home page as a category, you mean that in your home page posts that will be displayed will be only from a certain category ?
You only need to perform a WP_Query before the loop;
$query = new WP_Query("cat=10, paged=".get_query_var('paged'));
Then use use the WP_Query object to perform the loop;
if($the_query->have_posts()):
while($the_query->have_posts()):
the_title();
the_content();
//Use all the loop function normally
endwhile;
endif;
The paged parameter is used to determine in which page you are, if you need paginantion.
Instead of using the category id, it is good to retrieve the id by the slug.
$home = get_category_by_slug('home-category-slug');
Then your query will be like this
$the_query = new WP_Query("cat=".$home->cat_ID.", paged=".get_query_var('paged'));
Yes this is possible Go to dashboard>>Setting>>Reading>>Static page Choose page from drop down and SAVE. On that page you can create your own stuff...
