is it possible to create zone logins and redirect them to respective links?
]]>I would like to be able to see the Zones a post is assigned to in the post edit screen, and be able to assign the post to Zones there too.
I have written the code to do this. May I commit it to SVN?

]]>When I look at the screenshot, the layout looks like the image below.
. Presumably this is how it should look.
When I install Zoninator by downloading here and add three items, it looks like this:
Wondered if this is something that has come up before, and if so if it is being addressed.
Thanks.
]]>Google Editor’s Picks doesn’t accept our feeds created by Zones Plugin. Google Support said Feeds must be validated by
https://www.feedvalidator.org/
https://validator.w3.org/
First we create feeds by Zones Plugin then submit them to Google FeedBurner then submit them to Google News Dashboard – Editor’s Picks.
Zones Plugin feeds are not validated by Google. It will be great if you can fix them. Here is an example:
]]>Hi, I’m trying to include a zone on a page of mine, but the content is only being ordered by the date, and not the order that the zone has my posts in. Do I have to add something else to the query? Also, is it possible to query using WP_Query or is querying zones only possible through custom functions?
Here’s my code so far:
<?php $query_articles = z_get_zone_query('front-page-main');
if ($query_articles->have_posts()) : while ($query_articles->have_posts()) : $query_articles->the_post();
if (is_array($do_not_duplicate) && in_array($post->ID, $do_not_duplicate)) continue;
get_template_part('content', 'front-grid');
endwhile; else:
echo "No articles to show.";
endif; $query_articles = null; //Reset ?>
]]>
Is there a way of getting an RSS feed of the posts in a specific Zone? Something like:
https://domain.com/feed/?taxonomy=zoninator_zones&term=zone-name
?
Need to be able to get a feed for an external partner site to grab.
]]>As of today and last night, the Zoninator won’t load any new content. Usually, I can select a story from the drop down menu and it will go right into the zone I am working on. Today, when I select a story from the menu it doesn’t drop down into the zone, making it impossible to add any content.
Any help is appreciated!
]]>I love the idea behind this, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to use it. Call me a complete rookie, but I could really use a little guidance.
I see the widgets, but that just puts them on the sidebar or footer. And every single page mentioning Zoninator merely parrots the same phrase, “Then use the handy API functions to retrieve and display your content.”
I can create zones. That’s easy.
I can park zones in widgets. That’s easy, too.
What are these “handy API functions,” where do I find them, and how do I use Zoninator to curate specific content on my home page?
Thanks.
EDIT: I suspect this has to do with the code on the “Usage Notes” tab on the plugin page, but am not sure. Any clarification would be appreciated.
]]>You forgot the colon in the WP_Query example.
The
while ( $zone_query->have_posts() ) $zone_query->the_post();
should be
while ( $zone_query->have_posts() ): $zone_query->the_post();
Thanks for your work.
]]>I was wondering if it were possible to add category and post dropdowns.
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/88143/a-category-dropdown-and-post-select
This plugin seems to be extremely useful in subdividing news content on a section by section basis. One of things I’m curious about is structuring content both horizontally and vertically. Right now it appears that this plugin is largely based around organizing posts vertically. I was curious if there might be an easy way to split zones up into sections to be displayed in a horizontal fashion.
For example, consider this part of the bangordailynews.com. It would seem to be easier to make that entire section a zone that could be divided into subzones “A,” “B” and “C.” Stories could be dragged both vertically and horizontally from one subzone to another.
Right now it looks like the sortable function used in this plugin does not connect lists together to share items horizontally. But that’s just after taking a quick glance around the code. So I’m curious if there’s a way to do this with the code as is, or if it would need adjusting or if there’s another way entirely to do what I’m looking for that I’m not thinking about.
Awesome plugin. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
]]>Hi there! Thanks for producing Zoninator! It’s very useful indeed. I was just wondering if it would be possible to have it link to categories in addition to posts? Right now, as far as I can see, it just links to posts.
]]>After the update on a couple of installation I found that I lost my impagination: posts weren’t showing up.
That was because I was using
$posts = z_get_posts_in_zone('example');
but this new 0.4 prepend ‘zone’ to the slug of the zone.
So I changed ‘example’ to ‘zone-example’ and it worked again.
I suggest that you write that on the changelog.
Thanks for your plugin,

Zoninator 0.2 has improved support for custom post types. However you need to do something to add specific custom post types. Please let me know if this is the right approach. I’d add the following to something like the theme functions.php to enable public custom post types in zoninator:
function mf_add_zoninator_post_types () {
global $zoninator;
$available_post_types = array_values(get_post_types(array('public' => true, '_builtin' => false), 'names'));
$zoninator->default_post_types = array_merge($zoninator->default_post_types, $available_post_types);
}
add_action('zoninator_pre_init', 'mf_add_zoninator_post_types');

Can anyone refer me to sites where this plugin is being used?
