Hey,

When i have those kind of errors i usually that i messed up the code. Check to see that the code in functions ends with ?> And also, if you have any empty lines below the ?> remove them!

About thematic, I have used both and i have to say that thematic is ways better. You find everything you need in the forums and if you build a lot of web with thematic you can reuse the code so that you hardly have to write anything. Of course you can do this with Genesis. But Thematic is free and free is cool.

Ok, since i don’t get any responses here i have made my own solution that i gladly share.

First thing, i’m using Thematic with a child theme, and the plugin Magic Fields. But i guess that does not matter.

I have created two page templates. One called login and one called logged in page.

The login page is the page where i login. It goes a bit backwards but but i take it from top to bottom anyway.

<?php
/**
 * Template Name: Custom Login Page
 *
 */
 //get the url from the current user
 	global $current_user;
      get_currentuserinfo();
      $address = $current_user->user_url;
      //when the page relodes direct the user to the user url address..
 if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { header( 'Location:' . $address ) ; } 

wp_login_form();

When you visits it and is not logged in, you will see the form. when you log in and the page reloads you will get directed to the your user url.

Then to the “logged in page”, you have to create this. Set a custom field to have the same value as the user name. Then the code goes like this:

//Check if the user is logged in
	   global $current_user;
      get_currentuserinfo();
      //get the current username of the logged in user.
      $username = $current_user->user_login;
      // get the custom value user name of the page
		 $user = get('restricted_to_user');
		 //check if the username for the page and the username is the same. And always let the admin see the page..
 if (($username == $user) || (current_user_can('manage_options'))) {

then go on the way you want with the page and in the end of the page:

<?php } else {

   header( 'Location: https://localhost:8888/?page_id=XXX' ) ;
}
?>

so that if you are not logged in you get directed to the login page.

This is quite manual, but still, i don’t have to mess with plugins, roles and stuff. It feels great.

If anyone have any doubts about this regarding security, searchbots or anything please tell me, because i don’t know much about it..

I made some tests with custom fields. I set a name in a custom field in the page, the name of the user who should be able to see the page. Then i compare this with the logged in user and also i make so the admin always can see the page.

Someone that has any thoughts about this and security. Is it a safe way of doing it?

<?php global $current_user;
      get_currentuserinfo();
      $username = $current_user->user_login;
		 $user = get('user_for_page');
 if (($username == $user) || (current_user_can('manage_options'))) { ?>

Thanks!

Hey!

I’m also after the same thing! Did you do it?

that is perfectly the answer to my questions! thanx!

it works when i change in reading settings to only show one post, but that messes up my other category posts.. disturbing!

i tried the code, it works to show only one post from category 9, but the navigation don’t work. is it something that is missing in my code?

<?php
/**
 * Template: Category.php
 *
 * @package WPFramework
 * @subpackage Template
 */

get_header();
?>

			<!--BEGIN #primary-->
			<div id="primary" class="hfeed" >

<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts('cat=9&posts_per_page=1&paged=' . $paged);
?>

            <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

                <h1 class="page-title archive-title">Category Archives: <span id="category-title"><?php single_cat_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();  ?>

<?php if (in_category(array(8, 18, 19, 20, 22, 9, 10, 11, 12))) { get_sidebar(); } else {} ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thanks!

But i dont think it works for me..

I list a lot of attachments from several post in my category.php.. every post got at least three attachments.. now when i put it in i just get the same attachment id on everything.

the reason why i need unique id’s is because i use quicksand to filter my attachments..

Was a bit too fast!

Found the solution here:

Bruno!

Could you explain a little bit more how you did this?

Can’t get it right..

thank you very much!

Well, i found one solution. Maybe not the best but i keep it in wordpress..

First i installed the plugin “Members”. Then i made it possible for everyone to sign up to the blog. When they signed up i choosed in the members plugin that new people are pending with no access to special pages.

In my case there are different companys that will sign up so that they can write requests and order different stuff. So i created a page that i called login and that every company can see when logged in. I defined the settings in members. At the page wich every logged in user can see, a created a list of companys, and there respective pages. And in member changed the access to them so that the right person got access to them.

This is one way of doing it. It’s a bit manual (or very) but it works for me.

try it out!

Cool, i’m gonna check it out!

Thank you very much for the answer!

But i don’t get it to work. Do you use the FormBuilder plugin?

Where should i put this code? I try to put it in the value field. but it does not seems right to put this there, all i get in the e-mail that is sent to me is the whole code.

Can i put this in the page and then call something in the value field?

thank you!
