Search Results for 'posts loop'

This is a preview of what we need. I´ve customized the page but I can´t do the same with de post template.
I create a loop-single-14.php but I dont know how to use it in my new posts. Any idea is welcome.
Thanks again

Also, the need to implement the api is still there.
We have painstakingly created a custom “alphabetical letter” taxonomy to display all posts on one page using a keyword, all posts that have keyword A on page A etc etc.

However since we can not select a custom taxonomy on the tagdiv composer when filtering posts (only categories are allowed) we are stuck.

We have implemented this text into the plugin, which gets us the ARTICLE DISPLAY VIEW icons on the theme panel. however when we select them the page reverts back to the default. could you point us in the right direction please ?

            )
        );

    }
}

new td_api_plugin();

the text in module 20 for instance looks like this:

<?php

class td_module_20 extends td_module {

    function __construct($post, $module_atts = array()) {
        //run the parrent constructor
        parent::__construct($post, $module_atts);
    }

    function render() {
        ob_start();
        $title_length = $this->get_shortcode_att('m20_tl');
        ?>

        <div class="<?php echo $this->get_module_classes();?>">
            <div class="td-module-image">
                <?php echo $this->get_image('td_150x150');?>
                <?php if (td_util::get_option('tds_category_module_20') == 'yes') { echo $this->get_category(); }?>
            </div>
            <?php echo $this->get_title($title_length);?>

            <div class="td-module-meta-info">
                <?php echo $this->get_author();?>
                <?php echo $this->get_date();?>
                <?php echo $this->get_comments();?>
            </div>

            <?php echo $this->get_quotes_on_blocks();?>

        </div>

        <?php return ob_get_clean();
    }
}

We have created pages for each letter which each run their specific post template, which looks like this:
<?php
/*
Template Name: archief albumrecensie a
*/

<?php
get_footer();

and finally the loop it uses
<?php
/**
* If you are looking for the loop that's handling the single post page (single.php), check out loop-single.php
**/

echo td_page_generator::no_posts();
}

all of this was working fine since all of the code was directly implemented in the td config php file, which gets overwritten when you update the theme. all I thought I would have to do is implement the said code in the plugin api but clearly this isn’t how it should be done. I’m fearful that weeks of work on this alphabetical archive have been for nought…

Thanks for your answer, Simion:

1) In Theme panel->Template settings->Blog and post template, there is NO template selected (it’s a pitty that this editor doesn’t allow to attach images directly), but there is no module “boxed” (as in your image it’s the M18). In adddition, NO module type (Mx) seems to correspond with the way the default Newspaper blog page displays the articles. SO, I couldn’t select “the same” module/template as the blog page anyway.

2) I don’t want to change the way the blog page shows the posts by selecting a different Mx module AND by selecting later the same module in the categories, EVEN IF the categories showed the same as the blog page then, BECAUSE I REPEAT MY ORIGINAL NEED: that my categories show THE SAME WAY THE PAGE BLOG SHOWS NOW, which seems to correspond to no module the users can reach, as far I can see… If, on the other hand, I am wrong, please tell me which is the module that corresponds to the blog page as shown NOW (“out of the box” Newspaper). By the way, it’s not the M18 module boxed in your image (although I assume that you used that one just as an example, becasue it’s nothing like the way the blog page looks “out of the box” AND because the categories do not look like the blog page when I change them to the M18 module…).

3) Thanks for your additional suggestion, but I currently don’t want/need a static homepage.

4) With respect to the placeholder images shown now in the category pages, I repeat what I said preemptively in my previous comment: if the solution is establishing a feature image for every post and, on top of that, establishing the proper size of its miniatures relative to the module chosen, I don’t want / I can’t do that now. I just want/need that the category pages show/behave IDENTICAL to the blog page, where images are shown perfectly! By the way, that should be the DEFAULT category look/behaviour in ANY theme: if nothing is touched, they should look/behave as the main page/loop but with fewer (only its) posts!

5) Saying it, again, in other words: my category pages should look as mere FILTERS of the blog page, showing just the proper/latest/all/whatever CATEGORY articles, but in exactly the same way/look/style/design as the out-of-the-box Newspaper blog page looks now, in which case there would be no need to establish feature images (which it’s my main goal), because I DID NOT established any of them in the posts that are currently displayed pefectly in the blog page which it’s using their main images just fine, as it was in my old theme!

6) Of course there is A way of doing this in ANY theme, but I just didn’t buy a theme to begin to work in something like this right from the beginning touching/cloning PHPs, etc. What is the BEST way of doing this in Newspaper?

Thanks again, Simion.

Please, advise which loop-single should I choose – https://www.screencast.com/t/C3c5M9Tph6 – if I use Cloud Templates for posts – http://prntscr.com/k0r0s1, http://prntscr.com/k0r13l, http://prntscr.com/k0r1f6

Also where should I put the code – http://prntscr.com/k0r1xd – if I want the rating stars to be displayed below the post end – http://prntscr.com/k0r2or
http://prntscr.com/k0r3zc – Here?

Many thanks in advance for your reply!

Hello Bogdan B.

Thanks but I think there is a mistake: There is no “infinite loading+load more” option / I can’t see that option in this template cloud (loop block).

https://fotos.subefotos.com/6b50aa9762389bb03f9808b329f21b7bo.jpg

If I select “normal pagination”, “read more” never appears.

If I select “no paging”, even if I put a maximum number of posts, “read more” never appears.

I mean, I can’t get the “read infinity” with this boton?, am I setting something up wrong?

cheers

But I still would prefer if the tagdiv team also introduced the full-width template as part of the 13 default theme post templates (loop single and single template). I have done several customizations to the theme with regard to speed (example for a single post with 25 comments http://prntscr.com/js1nz8) and have managed to keep all my posts and pages below 1mb. I am not sure if that is a priority for now, but is it possible? (I am only using the cloud plugin for the full width feature only).

Find the 404.php file inside the Newspaper theme and remove this code (preferably in a child theme not to lose the changes with the theme update).

<h4 class="block-title"><span><?php echo __td('OUR LATEST POSTS', TD_THEME_NAME)?></span></h4> <?php

                $args = array(
                    'post_type'=> 'post',
                    'showposts' => 6
                );
                query_posts($args);

                $td_loop_block_module = td_util::get_option('tds_404_page_layout');
                //$td_loop_block_module

                locate_template('loop.php', true);
                //get_template_part('category', 'slider');
                wp_reset_query();

                ?>

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll drop the sub categories.

The tags can be omitted from the “Posts Loop” on the homepage, so that gets us there. The only issue I have is that these are tags for layout, not content, and would still be visible on the front end to site visitors. They don’t have IDs or anything for me to hide them. I suppose I could do something with string matching in JS.

Is there a way to hide specific tags from the front end that I’m not aware of?

Thanks for the support!

Normally yes, but I’ve made custom loops etc that cause the tagdiv composer to not work…

So, I take it creating a new page using tagdiv might be an option.
Is it possible to show posts from a certain category, with a certain taxonomy ?

The point is that we are trying to make the posts appear from category musicreviews, which have the taxonomy alphabetical letter A on one page.

And later on posts from category livereviews, which are also in the taxonomy alphabetical letter A on a different page…

Hi again,

I finally change the code in loop-single.php to:

<?php if ( has_excerpt() ) : // Only show custom excerpts not autoexcerpts ?>
<span class=”td-post-sub-title”><?php echo get_the_excerpt(); ?></span>
<?php endif; ?>

And is showing excerpt instead of subtitle and I can customize fonts via ‘subtitles’ in Theme options. But the meta data of posts (name of author, date) is too close to subtitle (now, excerpt). How could I change padding?

I attach a screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hqnszg3zcs3op2q/Captura%20de%20pantalla%202018-04-27%20a%20las%200.01.45.png?dl=0

Best wishes,

Спасибо. Нашел. Написал в loop.php
query_posts($query_string .’&cat=-**’); Заработало!
О комментариях вопрос еще актуальный

Thanks. I’ve found it. Written in the loop.php –
“query_posts ($query_string .’&cat= -**’);” Earned!
On review the question is still relevant
