Thanks Samuel B

Not quite what I’m after those are related posts, I am looking for posts mentioned in the article

Should anyione be interested the solution is:

if (!empty($full)) {

       $var = apply_filters('the_content', "[embed]" . $full . "[/embed]");

		echo $var;

	}

where $full is the value of the url to be embed (eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLh6F7G7rPA) from a custom field

Thanks Michael

Had a look through media.php but i dont really understand it!

@jkovis

That’s great, how do you then shows posts for the future? I.e. “upcoming” as opposed to past?

Doesnt work im afriad!

I tried it with the following code:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[-embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSA657kxJQw[/embed]'); ?>

and it just echoed the content

remove the echo

<?php do_shortcode('[-embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSA657kxJQw[/embed]'); ?>

rendered nothing

<?php
function formatBytes($bytes, $precision = 2) {
    $units = array('B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB');

    $bytes = max($bytes, 0);
    $pow = floor(($bytes ? log($bytes) : 0) / log(1024));
    $pow = min($pow, count($units) - 1);

    $bytes /= pow(1024, $pow);

    return round($bytes, $precision) . ' ' . $units[$pow];
} 

function getDirectory( $path = '.', $level = 0 ){

    $ignore = array( 'cgi-bin', '.', '..' );
    // Directories to ignore when listing output. Many hosts
    // will deny PHP access to the cgi-bin.

    $dh = @opendir( $path );
    // Open the directory to the handle $dh

    while( false !== ( $file = readdir( $dh ) ) ){
    // Loop through the directory

        if( !in_array( $file, $ignore ) ){
        // Check that this file is not to be ignored

            if( is_dir( "$path/$file" ) ){
            // Its a directory, so we need to keep reading down...

                echo "<h2>" . ucwords($file). "</h2>\n\n";
                echo "<ul>\n";
	                getDirectory( "$path/$file", ($level+1) );
	        	echo "</ul>\n\n";
                // Re-call this same function but on a new directory.
                // this is what makes function recursive.

            } else {
            	$thefile = str_replace("./", "", $path) . "/" . $file;
                echo "<li><a href=\"/" . str_replace("./", "", $path) . "/" . $file . "\">" . $file . "</a> " . formatBytes(filesize($thefile)) . "</li>\n";
                // Just print out the filename

            }

        }

    }

        	    closedir( $dh );
    // Close the directory handle

}

getDirectory( "./download" );

?>

I’m using this function in a template file, just set the directory you want to browse in getDirectory() function

anyone?

OK

I have somewhat of a solution using some code i stole from eric martin it is:

$img = "<img src=\"/image/galleries/" . $catnicename . "/" . $image ."\"  alt=\"" . get_the_title() . "\" />";

		/**
		 * New function that will display the navigation only if a previous or next entry exists
		 * Hint: For entries, next == newer and previous == older
		 */
	function post_navigation() {
			global $checkthelink;
			$older = theme_previous_post_link('%link', '? %title');

			if(strlen($older) > 0) {
				$checkthelink = 1;
			} 

			return $checkthelink;
		}

		/**
		 * Overrides the WordPress previous_posts() function in link-template.php
		 * Modification: Changed echo to return
		 */
		function theme_previous_posts() {
			return clean_url(get_previous_posts_page_link());
		}

		/**
		 * Overrides the WordPress previous_post_link() function in link-template.php
		 * Modification: Changed echo to return
		 */
		function theme_previous_post_link($format='? %link', $link='%title', $in_same_cat = TRUE, $excluded_categories = '') {

				$post = get_previous_post($in_same_cat, $excluded_categories);

			if ( !$post ) {
				return;
			} else {
			$format = 1;

			return $format;
			}
		}

		post_navigation();

	if ($checkthelink != 1) {
		echo $img;
	} else {
		previous_post_link('%link', $img, TRUE);
	}

thats as small as i can get it but im sure it could be more efficient, anyone can they help?

David

Thinking about it could i do another query_posts() with offset within the main loop get the permalink?

Ahhhh

I think i have discovered why (in sort) it because im using /%category%/%postname%/ as my permalink structure. Im not quite sure why that adds attachement and using day and name permalink structure doesnt but im getting closer…

Iridiax i see *sound of penny dropping*

thank you ever so much for your help, i’ll have a rethink.

Im not being clear.

I would like to have urls like:

https://www.example.com/tag/shopping-and-f***ing/

Well i have sen urls with characters like * in
