Archive output as list of page titles only

    In a different theme (Penscratch 2) I used this in order to display category archives as a list of page titles (below any category description content). How can I have the same results with generatepress? Its archives.php seems quite different.

    <?php
get_header(); ?>

	<section id="primary" class="content-area">
		<main id="main" class="site-main" role="main">

		<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

			<header class="page-header">
				<?php
					the_archive_title( '<h1 class="page-title">', '</h1>' );
					the_archive_description( '<div class="archive-description">', '</div>' );
				?>
			</header><!-- .page-header -->
<ol>
			<?php
        // Start the Loop.
        while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
?> 
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ol>
		<?php else : ?>
			<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'none' ); ?>
		<?php endif; ?>
		</main><!-- #main -->
	</section><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi there,

    just to confirm – you simply want to display the Post Titles, and nothing else for the individual posts in the archive ( ie. no featured image, no excerpt, no meta ) ?

    yes, and of course maintain any added category content on top.

    If you check the code I posted, it just outputs the loop in an ordered list like this:

    <ol>
<?php
        // Start the Loop.
        while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
?> 
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ol>

    For your needs it may be easiest to copy the archive.php and swap out just the GP loop without own ie. replace these lines with your :

    https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/a3ce1712ab1cc705fed577fad8fa9ea8c04d5d20/archive.php#L43-L49

    <ol>
<?php
        // Start the Loop.
        while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
?> 
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ol>

    Thanks, I tried with the code and I get a critical error no matter what changes I make

    do_action( 'generate_archive_title' );

/**
* generate_before_loop hook.
*
* @since 3.1.0
*/
do_action( 'generate_before_loop', 'archive' );
<ol>
        while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
endwhile;
</ol>

/**
* generate_after_loop hook.
*
* @since 2.3
*/
do_action( 'generate_after_loop', 'archive' );

else :

generate_do_template_part( 'none' );

endif;
			}

    Try replace the original code of the theme file with the code David provided, as your current code is missing some <?php and ?>.

    Yes, I had tried originally with those, and had the same error.

    Try this:

    
?><ol>
<?php
        // Start the Loop.
        while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
?> 
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ol> 
<?php
