Thanks, worked like a charm! I could see the plugin wasn’t pulling the the class .simple-social-icons but didn’t know how to fix it. Your explanation worked helped perfectly fix the issue.

Thanks!

@charvan,

Can you explain this in a little more detail, please? I don’t understand your initial suggestion or your second one either. Where does the .simple-social-icons class need to go?

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Yeah. It’s 1.5. The WordPress install is new so there wants any content in there before.

Here is a screenshot of my settings:

Any fixed on this?

I’d like to know the same thing. Can this be done?

Yup, I ended up using

$slides = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'post', 'category_name' => 'slider', 'order' => 'ASC', 'orderby' => 'menu_order' ) );

works great. Codex is here:

Thanks for the help!

Solution was my loop started before my row. Code should like like:

<div class="row">
    <?php
    $query = new WP_Query(array('post_type'=>'services','posts_per_page'=>'5'));
    while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post(); ?>

    <!-- Post Start -->
    <div class="span2">
        <?php the_post_thumbnail(array(150,150), array('class'=>'service-image')); ?>
        <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
        <?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
        <div><?php the_content(); ?></div>
        <p><a class="btn" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">View details &raquo;</a></p>
    </div>
    <!-- Post End -->

    <?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>
</div>

Works like a charm. Solved.

yup, just as I suspected:

function my_login_logo() { ?>
    <style type="text/css">
        body.login div#login h1 a {
            background-image: url(<?php echo get_bloginfo( 'template_directory' ) ?>/images/your-logo-path-in-template-folder);
            padding-bottom: 30px;
        }
        body.login {
	        background: #FBFBFB;
	        min-width: 0;
	        height: 1200px;
        }
    </style>

hmm… I wonder if I can add this to my function.php so it won’t get lost in an update.

perfect ” title=”<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?> is exactly what I needed, thanks!

I don’t really understand what you are trying to do… Are you trying to create a new template page for your posts/pages?

Ok, for anyone else that might be looking for the same thing, here is the solution that worked for me.

from Max at stockflow:
I’d recommend using a custom post type for that. Others would argue to use widgets, others would say keep it simple and use a category in posts, while others still would say to just add admin panel options to change it.

With my personal option, you’d install a plugin called Custom Press. Configure a new post type (call it services or something, and make sure Title, Editor, and Thumbnail are checked under “Supports”.

Now in your home page (i plug it into a custom page template) you’d query the custom posts (limiting it to 5), the image would be the post’s featured image, the description would be the post’s content, and the post’s title would be the service’s name.

Create the five posts in the newly created section (should show up right under Comments in the admin panel).

To query the posts on your home page (I used a custom page template), try something like:

<?php
$query = new WP_Query(array(‘post_type’=>’services’,’posts_per_page’=>’5′));
while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post();
?>
<!– Post Start –>
<?php the_post_thumbnail(array(150,150), array(“class”=>”service-image”)); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>

<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>
What that does is query the five newest posts in the post type ‘services’ (that is what you set in custom press) and loops through each one printing out first the image, then the title, then the content. You’ll need to style this and change it’s structure to match yours.

I hope this helps anyone looking to add columns to their theme.

Jan,

Gotcha, I just thought there was some kind of error because my post kept getting deleted. I see that was an intentional delete now. I just got off the phone with my host and we are hashing it out now.

Definitely a server error.

Thanks!
