Display images attached to current post only

  • Hi, after struggling and googling for last 2-3 days I have failed to find solution to my problem. I want to display my post text and images seperately, like in two different columns. As a newbie to wordpress I was not sure how to do that so I followed dew tricks found online. Unfortunatly, they work but not the way I want them to. Now its displayign all the images present in media instead of the images which I inserted in the current post. I found the following snippet in almost every solution related to this topic. As I am not advance on wordpress I am not sure if I am missing something or it is not going to do my job anyway.
    Anyone helping will be really a savior as I need this feature on my curent project which is due to go live very soon.

    Thanks in advance.

    Code:

    <?php
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'post_status' => 'any', 'post_parent' =>  $post->ID );
$attachments = get_post($args);
if ($attachments) {
foreach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {
echo '<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-6">';
the_attachment_link( $attachment->ID , flase );
echo '</div>';
}
}
wp_reset_postdata();
?>

    Hi suparna chowdhury

    In what theme template file are you using this and are you using this inside the loop?

    I’m asking because it seems the $post object is not available from where you are using this.

    Try echoing the $post ID like this in the same theme template file:

    echo 'post ID = ' . $post->ID;

    Hi keesiemeijer
    Thanks for your prompt reply. I am using this for a custom post template and yes I am calling it inside a loop. I tried doing what you suggested with no luck. Right not it is not showing any images at all. But could it be as I installed a lightbox plugin? My coding is not advanced so I can not detect where I am going wrong.
    Here is the full loop where I am calling this.

    <?php
// Apps single post
?>
<?php get_header();?>
<div class="container-fluid content-area">
<?php
if(have_posts()): while(have_posts()): the_post();
?>
	<div id="app">
		<div class="row space">
	    	<div class="col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12">
		        <h4 class="app-title">
		            <?php the_title();?>
		        </h4>
	    	</div>

			<div class="col-md-8 col-sm-8 col-xs-12 app-info">
				<p>
					<?php echo wp_strip_all_tags( get_the_content() );?>
				</p>
				<div class="space app-desc">
					<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'app_desc', true);?>
				</div>
			</div>

			<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-12">
				<div>
					<?php echo 'post ID = ' . $post->ID;?>
					<?php $post_thumbnail_attr = array(
						'class' => 'img-responsive single-post-img',
						'alt' => 'Post featured image',
						'title' => 'Post featured image'
						);

						if(has_post_thumbnail()) :
							the_post_thumbnail('full', $post_thumbnail_attr);
						endif;
					?>
				</div>
				<div>
					<?php $field_name="app_store"; $field_value = get_post_meta($post->ID, $field_name, true);?>
					<a>" title="Visit <?php the_title_attribute();?> at Google Playstore" class="btn get-app-btn">
						Get app now!
					</a>
				</div>
			</div>
		</div>

		<div class="row space" id="app-assets">
			<div class="col-md-6 col-sm-6 col-xs-12">
				<?php echo 'post ID = ' . $post->ID;?>
				<?php
					$args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'post_status' => null, 'post_parent' =>  $post->ID );
					$attachments = get_post($args);
					if ($attachments) {
					foreach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {
						echo '<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-6">';
						the_attachment_link( $attachment->ID , flase );
						echo '</div>';
						}
					}
					wp_reset_postdata();
				?>
			</div>
			<div class="col-md-6 col-sm-6 col-xs-12">
				<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/R8RNC8eOXzA?list=PLwEFOvXTN52CzUt_XUe26Z6Tgz-0laUrp" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>
				</iframe>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>

	<div class="tags">
		<?php wp_tag_cloud( $args ); ?>
	</div>
	<?php endwhile;endif;?>
	<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

	</div>
</div>
<?php get_footer();?>

    Try changing this

    <?php
					$args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'post_status' => null, 'post_parent' =>  $post->ID );
					$attachments = get_post($args);
					if ($attachments) {
					foreach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {
						echo '<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-6">';
						the_attachment_link( $attachment->ID , flase );
						echo '</div>';
						}
					}
					wp_reset_postdata();
				?>

    to this:

    <?php
					$args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'post_status' => null, 'post_parent' =>  $post->ID );
					$attachments = get_posts($args);
					if ($attachments) {
					foreach ( $attachments as $attachment ) {
						echo '<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-4 col-xs-6">';
						the_attachment_link( $attachment->ID , false );
						echo '</div>';
						}
					}
					wp_reset_postdata();
				?>

    Hi thanks for your reply. I tried as you suggested, with no luck :(. So I am dropping the idea for now.
    Thanks
