Just to clarify: the lightbox function works fine elsewhere (where it is not called up via an included page).

I seem to have found a way around this with get_post_custom_values('incr_number');

However, I’m still wondering, is there a way to reverse the enumeration i.e. call the *newest* post 1, the next 2 etc.?

Hi.

I’m in a similar situation. I’m using custom post-types with WordPress 3.01. Using moarghorgh’s solution I’ve changed the code that goes into functions.php and have managed to get the custom field working; the numbers adjust themselves automatically when I add/delete a new post.

However, I can’t for the life of me get the line of code below to work; and therefore can’t actually display the numbers!

<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID,'incr_number',true); ?>

The custom post type is named ‘gallery’.

Hi there – I noticed you published a solution to this – although I’ve tried implementing it and it seems to cause problems with pagination for me.

I’ve used the usual query_posts pagination fix and adapted your code like this:

<?php
$authors = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT ID
FROM $wpdb->users
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT post_author
FROM $wpdb->posts
WHERE $wpdb->users.ID = $wpdb->posts.post_author
AND $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'publish'
AND $wpdb->posts.post_type = 'blog')
ORDER BY display_name");

foreach($authors as $author) {
	$curauth = get_userdata(intval($author->ID));
?>

<h2>Author Profile for <span style="color:#560000;"><?php echo $curauth->first_name; ?> <?php echo $curauth->last_name; ?></span></h2>
<p><?php echo $curauth->user_description; ?></p>
<div style="height:8px;"></div>
<h2 style="font-size:15pt;"><?php echo $curauth->first_name; ?>’s Posts</h2>
    <!-- Posts Loop -->
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
     <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("post_type=any&paged=$paged&author=$author->ID&orderby=date&showposts=2"); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div style="padding-left:20px; padding-right:20px;">
<div id="smallerheaders"><h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2></div>
<?php the_content(__('(Click for more...)')); ?></div>
<div id="nextentry"></div>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('No posts by this author.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php } ?>

<div class="clear"></div>
<div style="width:400px; padding-left:20px; padding-bottom:20px; margin-top:1px; overflow:hidden; font-size:10pt; font-family:Georgia;"><?php wp_pagenavi(); ?></div>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
  </div>
  </div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

But it still seems to cause me trouble (the second page and any after that just create a 404).

Found the solution

It’s the query_posts line I was using that caused it.

Hi there,

Has anyone found a definitive solution to this? I’m using wp-pagenavi, and have tried to implement nathanrice’s solution but it doesn’t seem to work…

Just to clarify – I’m using home.php to return a specific category of posts here

but at the moment /?paged=2 (i’m not using permalinks for now) just doesn’t do anything, returning the same results as before…
