Content Types / The Loop

  • I’ve figured out how to create custom content types but how can I get them to display in the loop? I’d like to customize the loop to work the same way as Tumblr. A photo type shows a photo, a link just posts a list – custom code in the loop for each type.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    They don’t. Custom post types are separate from the loop, IIRC.

    Right, but I’d like the display of each type of content displayed differently on the home page….

    Just add something like this within The Loop.

    <?php query_posts(array('post_type' => array('post', 'content_type_1','content_type_2'))); ?>

    And change your the content_type_$n stuff to your content type names. You can use multiple loops on the same page to display different things.
