I'm using the Drupal views module to create an overview of nodes. In the view i created i configured the Title. But now when the page is rendered the title isn't shown. It is shown in the breadcrumb etc. But not in the grid template, also if i use another template it still doesn't show. Any idea what this can be? I tried looking for it, but my experience with Drupal is very limited.
I checked the drupal_get_title etc. and it is always returning the title, i think something goes wrong in the views module, but i don't know what :s
Kind regards,
Daan
The problem is most likely how you print the page title. If you want it to happen globally, you should print it in the page.tpl.php. Have you inspected the $title variable in the page template? That is what it's usually called.
i idd removed the title from page.tpl.php, but i did this because i thought it should be printed in the views template. When you check views-view-unformatted.tpl.php etc you see this:
<?php if (!empty($title)): ?>
<h3><?php print $title; ?></h3>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php foreach ($rows as $id => $row): ?>
<div class="<?php print $classes[$id]; ?>">
<?php print $row; ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
so i thought $title would print the title, but it is fixed just by adding it in my page.tpl.php

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 am quite new to Wordpress and try to customize my Wordpress theme. My posts are always different. But basically there is a title, a text and a NivoSlider/Image/Vimeo Video.
If I use the basic the_content function it displays the post like that:
<h2>Title of the Post</h2>
<p><div class="slider-wrapper">Slider</div>Text</p>
It always includes the Slider/Image/Video in the Tag. How can I split the_content object?
I would like to have my posts display like that e.g. for the NivoSlider:
<div class="slider-wrapper">Slider</div>
<h2>Title of the Post</h2>
<p><Text</p>
It would be really great if somebody could tell me the easiest way to do for all the different kinds of posts.
I hope you understand my explanation, if you need more details, just tell me.
Thanks in advanced.
Best,

Personally, I would take the shortcode out from your Content Body altogether, and place it in a Custom Field (named something like "postSlider"). Then you can structure your template like so:
<?php
do_shortcode(get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'postSlider'));
?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
You needs to create a custom page template for your posts. In that page template you can define your slider. Then just put your text in the content section.
Before doing serious coding refer this: Stepping Into Templates
Thanks again for your answer. Finally I used the Types plugin for Wordpress. You can easily customize your own field and use it in your index.php file with the following code:
Custom Field Image:
<?php echo(types_render_field("field-slug-image", array("alt"=>"Product image", "width"=>"600","height"=>"300","proportional"=>"true"))); ?>
Shortcode Custom Field for the Slider:
<?php echo apply_filters('the_content', get_post_meta($post->ID, 'field-slug-slider', true)); ?>
Shortcode Custom Field for the Vimeo video:
<?php echo apply_filters('the_content', get_post_meta($post->ID, 'field-slug-video', true)); ?>
Title and Content:
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_content('Read the full post',true);?>
Just came across an issue with my Wordpress template that I can't figure out. I am using a custom built menu (done simply with a quick query_posts() call), but when searching for certain terms, my query is affected. Not a clue as to why.
Here's my menu code:
<?php $main_cats=explode(",",$options['main_cats']); ?>
<?php $myargs = array('post_type' => 'page', 'post__in'=>$main_cats,'order'=>'ASC'); ?>
<?php query_posts($myargs);
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<li><?php the_title(); ?></li>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query();?>
This should end up with 4 menu items. However, when searching for a few "job" related items, it seems that the Job Manager plugin steps in (http://pento.net/projects/wordpress-job-manager-plugin/) and I get one menu result stating "This job doesn't exist". However, I don't understand how that plugin could possible affect my query.
Any thoughts?
This code assume that $main_cats has the right data, before testing this, check that the variable is correct:
<?php
$main_cats=explode(",",$options['main_cats']);
$menu_items=get_posts(array('post_type' => 'page', 'post__in'=>$main_cats,'order'=>'ASC'));
foreach($menu_items as $menu_item){ ?>
<li><?php echo $menu_item->post_title; ?></li>
<?php } ?>
Maybe Use native menu function to to create menu's, http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu
Don't use query_posts($myargs), query_posts() is meant for altering the main loop.
Use WP QUERY http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query (or get_posts).
Try wp_reset_query(); before your query as well as after, like you have. I think that the plugin query is happening before your yours. There may be some carry over from that. Reseting before your query might give you a clean slate.
I am working on a drupal 6 site and I am dealing with a views template file which overrides views-view-table.tpl.php. The first few lines of code are:
<table class="<?php print $class; ?>">
<?php if (!empty($title)) : ?>
<caption><?php print $title; ?></caption>
<?php endif; ?>
Where is $title set and what is it? It doesn't seem to be the node id. In the site I am working one, its displaying one of the fields!
It's the title of the View Display (not the machine name of the View!)
See left top corner of the Views Admin UI.
In Drupal 6, I added a custom field to a custom content type.
The name is: "field_publishedin"
I then added data into that field for some sample articles.
In the view for it, I added that field as well.
On the page that renders it I added the code to show the field as well:
<div class="press-content">
<div class="family-news">
<?php foreach($rows as $row): ?>
<div class="news">
<div class="data">Posted on <?php print $row['created'] ?> </div><!--DATA-->
<h4><?php print $row['title'] ?><span><?php print $row['field_publishedin_value']; ?></span></h4>
</div><!--NEWS-->
<?php endforeach ?>
</div>
</div>
So the code I added is <span><?php print $row['field_publishedin_value']; ?></span> since according to the view when using in a template you are suppose to add "_value".
However, I clicked rescan templates, emptied the drupal cache but that new code still does not render on the page.
When I add this to the page: <?php print '<pre>' . htmlentities(print_r($rows, 1)) . '</pre>'; ?> and it outputs the possible array values it does not show, "field_publishedin_value" so it seems like the template doesnt know that field exists even though its in the view. Help?
install the devel module, and in to *.tpl.php, place:
<?php
dpm($fields); // if views
// or dpm($node); if it's a node or page.tpl.php
// of if you don't know, dpm(get_defined_vars());
?>
Also, if this is views, the template you should be using is the views-view-fields.tpl.php. Note the PLURAL fields.
