Pagination blog help, next page shows same post.
-
Hello there! Thanks for reading!
I’m working on a child theme from twentyten theme.
Basically Home page needs to show the latest post in full, and 5 more post excerpts. And following pages would have the next 5 and so on…. Right now I have everything except my next page, always shows the 5 excerpts from the previous page.
I don’t really know if how i set this up is the best way to do this So hopefully someone here could provide me a little much needed guidance. Ha
I created two loops in my loop.php. One that shows only if home and not page. The second that is my additional page excerpts offset by 1.
First loop:
<?php if (is_home() && !is_paged()):?> <?php query_posts( 'posts_per_page=1' ); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'twentyten' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <?php twentyten_posted_on(); ?> </div><!-- .entry-meta --> <?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : // Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> <div class="entry-summary"> <?php the_excerpt(); ?> </div><!-- .entry-summary --> <?php else : ?> <div class="entry-content"> <?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span>', 'twentyten' ) ); ?> <?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-link">' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentyten' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?> </div><!-- .entry-content --> <?php endif; ?> <div class="entry-utility"> <?php if ( count( get_the_category() ) ) : ?> <span class="cat-links"> <?php printf( __( '<span class="%1$s">Posted in</span> %2$s', 'twentyten' ), 'entry-utility-prep entry-utility-prep-cat-links', get_the_category_list( ', ' ) ); ?> </span> <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php endif; ?> <?php $tags_list = get_the_tag_list( '', ', ' ); if ( $tags_list ): ?> <span class="tag-links"> <?php printf( __( '<span class="%1$s">Tagged</span> %2$s', 'twentyten' ), 'entry-utility-prep entry-utility-prep-tag-links', $tags_list ); ?> </span> <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php endif; ?> <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'twentyten' ), __( '1 Comment', 'twentyten' ), __( '% Comments', 'twentyten' ) ); ?></span> <?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'twentyten' ), '<span class="meta-sep">|</span> <span class="edit-link">', '</span>' ); ?> </div><!-- .entry-utility --> </div><!-- #post-## --> <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?> <?php endwhile; // End the loop. Whew. ?> <?php endif; ?> <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
And my second loop is:
<?php $the_query = new WP_Query( 'posts_per_page=5&offset=1' ); //query_posts('posts_per_page=5&offset=1'); while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?> <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'twentyten' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <?php twentyten_posted_on(); ?> </div><!-- .entry-meta --> <?php if ( is_archive() || is_search() ) : // Only display excerpts for archives and search. ?> <div class="entry-summary"> <?php the_excerpt(); ?> </div><!-- .entry-summary --> <?php else : ?> <div class="entry-content"> <?php the_excerpt(); ?> <?php //wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-link">' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentyten' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?> </div><!-- .entry-content --> <?php endif; ?> <div class="entry-utility"> <?php if ( count( get_the_category() ) ) : ?> <span class="cat-links"> <?php printf( __( '<span class="%1$s">Posted in</span> %2$s', 'twentyten' ), 'entry-utility-prep entry-utility-prep-cat-links', get_the_category_list( ', ' ) ); ?> </span> <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php endif; ?> <?php $tags_list = get_the_tag_list( '', ', ' ); if ( $tags_list ): ?> <span class="tag-links"> <?php printf( __( '<span class="%1$s">Tagged</span> %2$s', 'twentyten' ), 'entry-utility-prep entry-utility-prep-tag-links', $tags_list ); ?> </span> <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php endif; ?> <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'twentyten' ), __( '1 Comment', 'twentyten' ), __( '% Comments', 'twentyten' ) ); ?></span> <?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'twentyten' ), '<span class="meta-sep">|</span> <span class="edit-link">', '</span>' ); ?> </div><!-- .entry-utility --> </div><!-- #post-## --> <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?> <?php endwhile; ?>
And my pagination stuff looks like this:
<?php if ( $wp_query->max_num_pages > 1 ) : ?> <div id="nav-below" class="navigation"> <div class="nav-previous"><?php next_posts_link( __( '<span class="meta-nav">←</span> Older posts', 'twentyten' ) ); ?></div> <div class="nav-next"><?php previous_posts_link( __( 'Newer posts <span class="meta-nav">→</span>', 'twentyten' ) ); ?></div> </div><!-- #nav-below --> <?php endif; ?> <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
I know this is a lot of stuff here.. Hopefully this makes sense and this is the proper place to post my question.
Anyway thank you for any help guiding me!
