thanks! that was exactlywhat I was looking for!

As for the problem with internal links: I use a plugin called “Broken Link Checker”. What’s more, when you use pretty permalinks you don’t need to provide hardlinks, for internal (site-) links, relative links are fine and do solve part of the problem. What left are media library links. Not sure if the Broken Link Checker addresses this problem, too long since it last reported a broken link.

Thanks for your comment, I’m running 2 multilingual multisites which I converted to from other solutions.

Qtranslate would be my choice for simple websites, but it is a pain in the a…. when the site is too complex or grows into such. I used to use it before and it caused me a lot of time to clean it up.

I also tested WPML. Might be a good plugin, but it is not free and not very time efficient. I used it once on a project, I spent so much time on it.

I tried babble which was wasn’t all too bad, but I fear backtracking once I went down this road.

In my mind setting up a multisite is the best and cleanest solution and there’s a really good plugin to it, for linking the different language sites: Multilingual Plugin from Marketpress

As for the “KINDA” – no. With the multisite it is much more complicated. To change URLs with a default WP-installation you can hardcode the URL in the functions.php, log back in, change the blog address within the settings, delete it from functions.php and you’re done.

Whereas with a Multisite this doesn’t work, you have to export the db, change it in the export file redo the setup procedure and then re-import the db, as far as my knowledge goes.

duplicate issue.

Thanks denyooo, that did it! You saved my life!!!

A static reference to home page with navigation to its sections.

BTW: I am using the roots theme should this matter.

There is a similar problem posted in the
Roots Theme Google Group, but that doesn’t help as when on the Blog Page the slug is still inserted (for some reason).

What I need would be a static reference such as https://www.example.com/#menu-item , but I don’t want to hardcode it that way, as it doesn’t make sense to query a nameserver to find an internal resource.

Sorry this is not working either. It still puts the slug of the blogpost inbetween.

Yes. Similar to these two. Actually the marshmallowsandgasoline.com is closer to the functionality that i want to implement.

I'm not sure that I get you...

That may well be possible ?? I’ll try to explain it better.

Basically everything is happening on the front page. There are several sections and they are not linked with permalinks but with anchors (href=”#blog” id=”blog” ). The default view of this “blog section” is supposed to consist of a couple of recent posts.

Underneath should be a navigation/pagination.

Now, when a user clicks on a post (the permalink to the post), usually single.php is called to display it. Nothing wrong with that, but currently a new window is opened and the default bloglayout with sidebar is shown. What I want to do is basically display the blogpost in the very same section (the “blog” div container).

Eventually it would be possible to show/hide with jQuery but I’m pretty sure this should be solvable with WP.

Thanks esmi, I’ll chekc that

yes, for now until I’ve come up with a better solution.

I got it working now with the code snippet from here:

basic-query-needed-using-page-id

It works like a charm (except for the aesthetic issue of code duplication in the template file). But that’s fine for now, can take care of this later.

Yes, that’s corrrect.

This would allow better control of content/layout/styling.

I was thinking of something like a custom function in functions.php and then pulling in the output in the respective section, basically like this:

<section id="about">
<?php …. display content of about page … ?>
</section>

<section id="services">
<?php …. display content of services page … ?>
</section>

etc.

Actually differences in page templates for the content pages is not the issue. Let’s treat the template for the content pages as one-for-all. I am wondering how to grab the content from those pages and insert it in the static page in a controlled manner with as little hardcoding than possible.

Ah yeah, sorry. Now I got it! A static frontpage with a page template referencing the respective sections and one or more page templates for the “actual” pages (depending on the their content/layout).

Hey, thank you for your comment.

Problem with a one template solution is that I will have a lot of content & markup on this (the built-in editor is not very good for this, so I would have to copy/paste with an external editor everytime I’d make a signifcant change in the content). This is the main reason why I want to distribute it logically across several pages (home, about, services, projects, blog, contact etc.) to keep the content per page at a manageable level.

Ah, and I thought it might be convenient to use the slug/pagename as the title might differ slightly from the slug. id is inconventient, especially with pretty permalinks.

Found 2 typos in functions.php when trying to localize it:

functions.php (2 hits)
