Can't echo $post

    Hi,

    I love this plugin first of all, It’s been a long time since I’ve last used it (I used it when it was just a git repo). I’ve decided to give the plugin a try but I can’t seem to get $post->ID.

    My Code is:

    <div class="news-grid-item grid">
  <figure class="grid-content effect-layla">
    <div class="img" style="background-image:url(<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) );?>)" alt="thumbnail"></div>
    <figcaption>
      <h2>$post->ID<?php echo wp_trim_words(get_the_title($post->ID), 6); ?></h2>
      <p>Full Article</p>
      <a href="#" data-id="<?php echo $post->ID;?>" data-type="news" class="ajax-get-post" onclick="loadPost(<?php echo $post->ID ?>,'news')"></a>
    </figcaption>
  </figure>
</div>

    this line here get’s the attachment url but if I just try to echo the id I can’t get it.
    wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) );

    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Brook.

    Hi Wizardo,
    Oh nice! That was a couple years back now ??

    All you need to do is define global $post; at the top of your repeater template.

    <div class="news-grid-item grid">
  <?php global $post; ?>
  <figure class="grid-content effect-layla">
    <div class="img" style="background-image:url(<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) );?>)" alt="thumbnail"></div>
    <figcaption>
      <h2>$post->ID<?php echo wp_trim_words(get_the_title($post->ID), 6); ?></h2>
      <p>Full Article</p>
      <a href="#" data-id="<?php echo $post->ID;?>" data-type="news" class="ajax-get-post" onclick="loadPost(<?php echo $post->ID ?>,'news')"></a>
    </figcaption>
  </figure>
</div>
