I inherited a Druapl5 site and it's showing content when published is not checked in the Publishing Options section of the Edit Content Form.
I confirmed that the status is 0 in the DB for the node. So it should be not visible.
My first guess was that I was logged in and that's why I could see it, but I logged out and I could still see it. I tried a different browser and the same thing so it's not that.
Also, the unpublished nodes are coming up in the search results which I originally thought was an out of date search cache, but may be something different.
Ever seen anything like this? Any ideas?
You mentioned in a comment that Content Access is installed on the site. This module (as well as several others, e.g. ACL) overrides the default Drupal node access mechanism in order to provide additional/more fine grained permission settings.
So my guess is that the permission configurations in that Module are configured wrong for your desired results. As far as I recall, it allows separate permission sets per content type (defined for authors and roles). You should look at your content type edit/definition pages - there should be a tab added by that module to configure the permissions. Also check the readme.txt of the module, as it might give some additional hints.
If that does not help, you should check if other node access modules are installed as well. As mentioned, there are quite a few of them, and their interactions are not easy to determine (One should aim to use only one, if possible).
Are you using Views? If so, make sure you have a filter set to show Published only.
I ran in to a similar problem with comments, which lead to some excellent spamming opportunities until I discovered it.
Rather strange. No answers, only guesses:
Try accessing admin/content/node-settings and click on Rebuild permissions.
And maybe clear the cache admin/settings/performance
Check your permissions for anonymous users. Seems like somewhere they have the wrong permisions.
All access modules override the default settings while using hook_node_access(). Most likely this is the problem. So you need to tweak those settings in the content access portion.
And this is not the best solution. But if you need something in the interim you can always put this code in the node.tpl.php file:
if(!$node->status && $user->uid != 1){
with code added:
<div id="node-<?php print $node->nid; ?>" class="node<?php if ($sticky) { print ' sticky'; } ?><?php if (!$status) { print ' node-unpublished'; } ?> clear-block">
<?php print $picture ?>
<?php
if(!$node->status && $user->uid != 1){
?>
<?php if ($page == 0): ?>
<h2><?php print $title ?></h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="meta">
<?php if ($submitted): ?>
<span class="submitted"><?php print $submitted ?></span>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if ($terms): ?>
<span class="terms"><?php print $terms ?></span>
<?php endif;?>
</div>
<div class="content">
<?php print $content ?>
</div>
<?php
if ($links) {
print $links;
}
}//if for published node
?>
</div>

So I have a home page with a number of button links on, but I need certain ones to be hidden depending on who is logged in.
My initial thought was to save several different copies of my home page and then send the user to the appropriate one when they log in.
Can anyone suggest a neater way to do this?
I would not recommend to have different sites if it's only about changing some buttons and not the complete context.
Since code examples are missing i'll have some assumptions.
Let's say if your use is logged in you have set
$_SESSION['logged_in'] === true
Then just write your html like this
<!-- ... -->
<p>This is visible to everyone</p>
<?php if ( isset($_SESSION['logged_in']) && $_SESSION['logged_in'] === true ) { ?>
<p>Only logged in users see this</p>
<?php } ?>
<?php if ( !isset($_SESSION['logged_in]) ) {?>
<p>Only not logged in users see this</p>
<?php }?>
EDIT
This of course requires you to run not html but php pages. Don't forget to call session_start(); before using sessions.
I have a question, and i hope i am posting in the right place, if this topic belongs to another forum, please guide me where to post it.
the question is: i have a website created with WordPress and i am using the Jupiter theme, i need to hide some content (like hiding the last half of the article in a page) and disable the photos to be enlarged unless the visitor is a registered user, i need to know how to do that, and if there is a plugin to do that, i have tried "layered-popups-for-wordpress" and "optin-content-locker-layered-popups-addon" but they didn't work properly.
It might request a lot of effort for you to edit the theme on your own...You can use the_excerpt() insetead of the_content() for display info, and add a rule that only registered members can see, something like
if(is_user_logged_in()) {
the_content();
} else {
the_excerpt();
}
Do this while in the loop, of course...
These plugins might help you though
https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/paid-content
If you're using WPMU might try this one
https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/pay-per-view/
I don't know of a plugin that does this automatically, but you can do it yourself if you are willing/able to do some minor theme development. Make a child theme of your Jupiter theme, and copy over the file content.php. There will probably be some part of the code that looks like this:
<?php if ( is_search() ) : ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
...
Or something like that. The point is, the theme should already be set up to serve excerpted content for a search. You could either simply add code like this:
<?php if ( is_search() || !is_user_logged_in() ) : ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
...
Or you could customize what non logged in users are seeing like this:
<?php if ( is_search() ) : ?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php else if (!is_user_logged_in()) : ?>
<!-- Your custom code display here -->
<?php endif; ?>
Hope that's helpful!
In order to hide certain parts of your content with just a simple shortcode you may give "Restrict Anonymous Access" plugin a try:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/restrict-anonymous-access/
Examples:
[member]My restricted content …[/member]
This shortcode can be placed wherever you need to hide something from logged-out users or even users of a certain user role can be addressed:
[member role="author"]My restricted content to users below author role …[/member]
I'm tuning up a website made with Wordpress and I'm facing a small inconvenient:
I want to use a custom template for the posts in a specific category, so I have a single-4.php file that gets me a custom php file for any post in cat.id 4. That works great, now for the problem...
PROBLEM -->
I want to display a custom sidebar as well, so at the end of the single-4.php I add:
<?php get_sidebar( $evento ); ?>
As instructed in the Wordpress Codex, expecting to get my sidebar-evento.php file used istead of the default sidebar.php. But it doesn't work, instead it will just use the default behaviour instead. I have also tried "'single-evento'" instead. I know that the code line is being used because if I remove it, the sidebar area breaks ( dissapears and the page breaks).
My suspicion is that the Custom Sidebars plug-in is catching up right after I call for any sidebar and regardless of which one I'm requesting, it gets replaced. But it doesn't make much sense really. Because as you can see in my sidebar-evento.php:
<div id="right">
<h3>LINE TO CHECK IF SIDEBAR-EVENTO.PHP IS SHOWN</h3>
<?php if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ) ) : ?>
<?php endif; // end sidebar widget area ?>
<?php if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-3' ) ) : ?>
<?php endif; // end sidebar widget area ?>
</div></div>
Both things should happen: A) I get my custom text, then B) I get the other custom thingies as determined by the plug-in.
I hope I've been clear about what my problem is. Please bear in mind for your response that I have no PHP knowledge, I only do HTML and this is a sort of -charity- project, so I try to learn as I go. Meaning: step-by-step might be necessary! heh. Sorry!
Thank you very much in advance.
Try:
<?php get_sidebar( 'evento' ); ?>
This should pull in sidebar-evento.php
I have followed all instructions on installing Disqus commenting system on my website but the old comment form is still visible.
My question is: is <?php comment_form(); ?> enough to display the comments or there needs to be something else on the single.php page.
What else should I be taking care?
I don't have any other commenting engine installed.
Thank you
OK I found it.
Instead of using the <?php comment_form(); ?> I had to use <?php comments_template(); ?>.
That did the trick
install woody snippets on your site
insert a new php snippet:
comments_template(); ?>
go in widget select custom html and place the code:
<div id="disqus_thread">
[wbcr_php_snippet id="THE ID WHAT WOODY GAVE YOU"]
</div>
and place the widget where you want
obviously don't forget to enable comments site-wide
I'd like to implement a custom post retrieval page in wordpress. Basically, I'm using AJAX to call this page that will be passed a post ID and retrieve certain data from that post.
Note: please don't mistake this as a template question. I do not want a template for one single page -- I am looking to make this page query multiple different posts based on postID and return certain data from that post.
So I tried creating a page
<?php
$args=array(
'p'=>'77'
);
$friends = new WP_Query($args);
?>
<?php if ($friends->have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts are available.</p>
<?php endif; ?>
But this does not work since it is not loading in the wp functions to handle the query.
Thanks in advance for any help!
You have to include the wp-blog-header.php file. If the page you are creating is in your theme's folder then you would put something like this at the top of your code
<?php require_once ('../../../wp-blog-header.php');?>
I think I guess what you are trying to do, and it sounds like you are going about it the wrong way. Do not make a 'new page' in the admin interface. What you want to do is serve up a file (JSON, XHTML fragment, whatever) to your Javascript and include in it WP data, right? I know that problem, having used it in some of my plugins.
There are two techniques:
(1) This is what you need to do: make a new plugin (just a loose php file in wp-plugins with the same format header as the other plugins in there). Write your function along these lines:
function mydatapage(){
if (...$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == the one I am using ...) {
$args=array(
'p'=>'77'
);
$friends = new WP_Query($args);
if ($friends->have_posts()) :
the_post();
the_title();
the_content();
else:>?
<p>Sorry, no posts are available.</p>
<?php endif;
die();
} //else do nothing and leave WP to serve the page normally
}
//Crucially:
add_action('init', 'mydatapage');
What that does is do a lookup when pages are loaded to see if the url matches the one you want to hijack and use to send your custom data. If it is, you send the data/file/whatever you feel like and exit (die).
Give a shout if you want more detailed syntax. It is a bit messy, but works well.
(2) Directly call your plugin file. WP will only handle files that do not already exist, and leave the rest to Apache. That means you can make a plugin file and call that directly using the .../wp-plugin/myfile.php url. You would need to include some of the WP core files to get things like WP_Query to work. It is marginally more fragile a method.
