    hey mitchko, i’m sorry… problem solved…

    i went only through the exact posts for which their related posts didn’t have the custom field that i was looking for.

    thanks anyway… still one of the best wp-plugins out there ??

    No errors, the metadata field just “isn’t retrieved”.

    Let me know if you have a solution for this, meanwhile i’m leaving the titles only ??

    Well, I researched the way it works on the Arthemia Premium theme and other themes around there. It uses this great script: JCarousel
    https://sorgalla.com/jcarousel/

    As someone else pointed out in a related forum topic, getting it to work with wordpress requires to move all CSS and JS imports from the <head> to the <body>.

    With that in mind, I just copy pasted the code from the examples, changed the paths of my imports and wraped my posts on an
    “ul” as required by the script. More info about that: here.

    Thanks anyway…

    A similar effect is used here ond the featured section:
    https://demo.colorlabsproject.com/arthemia/

    I’m guessing they query all the posts they show on the sidebar “carousel”. So I can query my three different loops. It wouldn’t be a “standard paged” navigation, this solution wouldn’t use the previous_posts_link and next_posts_link

    I wonder if there is a plugin ready for this.

    My mistake… It’s a typo: I want to be able to navigate through one of my group of posts without lEAving the page. I mean, having the last 20 posts of each group loaded and being able to cycle through them using the arrows below each group (next and previous buttons).

    I don’t have a live version yet…

    But: what happens now is
    1- navigation makes me jump page…
    from https://www.server.com to https://www.server.com/page/2

    2- My navigation buttons only seem to recognize the first group of posts. When I jump to previous or next pages, only the first group goes back and forward, I’d like to move back and forward separetly within each group. Here’s a more complete version of the code above:

    <!-- First group of posts... this displays the number of posts I specify in my Reading Tab of the Options Panel -->
         <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
 <!-- Display some stuff using normal tags like the_author and the_content -->

	<?php endwhile; ?>

  		  <div class="entry navigation fix">
  		    <br class="clear" />

        <ul class="home-nextprev fix">
  		<li class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
 		 <li class="previous"><?php next_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
	</ul>

    		</div>
  		  <?php else : ?>
  		  <!-- Don't have posts to display -->
  		<?php endif; ?>

<!-- Second group of posts -->
<?php query_posts('category_name=articulos&amp;showposts=4'); ?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <!-- All the stuff I do to display the posts -->             

   <?php endwhile;?>
<ul class="home-nextprev fix">
  		<li class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
 		<li class="previous"><?php next_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

<!-- Third group of posts -->
<?php query_posts('category_name=noticias&amp;showposts=3'); ?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <!-- All the stuff I do to display the posts -->             

   <?php endwhile;?>
<ul class="home-nextprev fix">
  		<li class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
 		 <li class="previous"><?php next_posts_link('%link') ?></li>
	</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

    are there plugins that manage multiple loops with ajax?

    Here’s an image:

    Image!

    Two of the loops are shown (Featured Articles and News). As you can see, below each group of posts, there are two arrows, they allow me to cycle through the last 10-15 posts in each category. It would be best to do it without living the current page…

    I’m using query_posts() 2 times, exactly the same code except for category_name and showposts number:

    <?php query_posts('category_name=articulos&amp;showposts=4'); ?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <!-- All the stuff I do to display the posts -->             

   <?php endwhile;?>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php query_posts('category_name=noticias&amp;showposts=3'); ?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

            <!-- All the stuff I do to display the posts -->             

   <?php endwhile;?>
<?php endif; ?>

    yeah, i was afraid so…

    i’m trying to include one more post on the rest of the index pages than the number on the first index page. i even tried to get one less post, since that would also let me with an even number of posts…. no luck thou

    Thanks!

    I’ve managed to get this done by getting another query that will always get me the last post i’ve written as No. 1. (this is from The Loop Codex page)

    <?php $my_query = new WP_Query('showposts=1');
    while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
        $my_first = $post->ID;?>
        <!-- Do stuff... -->
    <?php endwhile; ?>

    Does that plugin allow me to set different number of posts for my first page and another number of posts for the rest of the pages? I’m talking about pagination and not Pages.

    Thanks again!!

    ok, thanks for the replies…

    i’ve been doing some thinking and i have one further question:

    if you are a company that sells services, how good is for the user (and your sales) that my homepage displays my blog instead of some static info and the blog is left to a second place in my site?

    i hope this is understandable
