Change Wiki Archive page to list only parent wikis

    I wanted to change the archive page to display only the parent Wikis. The archive page displays when you go to the wiki slug (default is /wiki). Figured out this code so thought I would share. Place this code in a file named archive-incsub_wiki.php and place the php file in your theme folder:

    <?php
//Place this php file in theme folder
$wiki_id = wiki; //Get the wiki you specify, for the root use the wiki slug you set in wiki settings, default is wiki
$post = get_post($wiki_id); //Getting the posts by wiki id
setup_postdata($post); //Sets up global post data and helps to format custom query results for using Template tags

get_header();
?>
    <div id="primary" class="site-content">
        <div id="content" role="main">
        <h1 style="text-decoration: underline;">MY WIKI TITLE</h1> <!-- Display this text as title -->
        </br> <!-- Add a line between the title and Wiki titles -->
            <?php if ( ( have_posts() ) //Check to see if there are any Wikis
                && ( 0 == $post->post_parent ) ) { //If yes then only get the parent posts
                ?><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title( '<h3>', '</h3>' ); ?></a><? //Display the parent post title as a h3 styled hyperlink
                }
                else { //If no Wikis are found print this message on the screen
                echo "No Wikis found, please go add some";
                }
            ?>
        </div><!-- #content -->
    </div><!-- #primary -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php

get_footer();

    OK, ignore the code I have above. I forgot the loop and changed it anyway. So here is the code that WORKS:

    <?php
//Place this php file in theme folder
$args = array(
	'post_type' => 'incsub_wiki',
	'numberposts' => -1,
	'tax_query' => array(
    array(
      'taxonomy' => 'incsub_wiki_category',
      'field' => 'slug',
      'terms' => 'root', // Where slug of Root is "Root".
      'include_children' => TRUE,
      'operator' => 'IN',
    ),
  ),
);

$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );

get_header();

?>
    <div id="primary" class="site-content">
        <div id="content" role="main">
        <h1 style="text-decoration: underline;">My Wikis</h1> <!-- Display this text as title -->
        </br> <!-- Add a line between the title and Wiki titles -->

<!-- Begin the Loop -->
<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
     while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
     $the_query->the_post();
     ?><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title( '<h3>', '</h3>' ); ?></a><?php ;
     }
} else {
     echo wpautop( 'No Wikis were found, please add some' ); // no posts found
}
?>
<!-- End of the Loop -->
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->

<?php wp_reset_postdata() ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    So to get this to work, you need to do 2 things:
    1. Place this code in a file named archive-incsub_wiki.php and place the php file in your theme folder.
    2. Create a Wiki Category of “Root” with a slug of “root” and tag your root Wikis with that category.

    Now the archive page will only show the names root Wikis as hyperlinks.

    Hey CHomko,

    Glad you managed to figure this one out and thanks for sharing the solution.

    Have a nice weekend!

    Cheers,
    Bojan
