Counting posts
-
Hi,
First off, I am fairly new to WordPress and PHP.
I’ve done quite well so far on this theme I am creating but hit a block with a certain page. As far as I can tell I need to customise the loop to get what I need.
Basically I have a page with 4 images on top, cleared and separated then on the bottom another 4 images all taken from the same custom post type.
If I just do the standard loop, it works fine but of course I want the top 4 images separated from the bottom and then some pagination onto other pages. Harder than I thought..
I’ve done some digging and from this i’ve learned I will need to create an increment variable. I’m only just learning PHP so this idea scares me!
I’d rather not use a plugin and if possible try and understand how to do this myself.
Hope some of this makes sense!
This is what I have without customising the loop:
