GegH1,
could you provide more details on how you’ve set up the plugin, what WP version is, what the plugin version is, list of plugins enabled?

jbdeciga,
well, it looks like it’s working now. At least, there’s a list of posts being displayed on that page. Could you clarify the problem you have or let me know if you’ve been successful at setting up your blog?

Hi WinniethePo0h,
could you do the same as what I asked Grafikz to do, so that I could find the problem and give you a solution?

wanos,

thanks for commenting, I’ve created a task for myself to improve the functionality

Hi,
for now, no. Plugin outputs posts in the descending order (putting first those that are dated recently). However, if you need different sort order regardless of what the current functionality is, you can modify your plugin installation, as it uses WP_Query class for posts retrieval.

Hi,
everything should be okay, but let’s test it.
Could you try to setup all the things using the plugin settings page? Also, please reset your shortcode to it’s default state ([wppf])

Hi pbm160,

.entry-title and .entry-content style classes are not set in WP Posts Filter. .entry-content is a class for twentyeleven and twentytwelve themes. For twentytwelve, for instance, you can find it in wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/style.css and rtl.css for left-to-right and right-to-left respectively.

Hi theOnlyMann,
could you provide screenshots of your posts showing categories they have, screenshot of the filter settings for the page?

The short code for the plugin is just like a placeholder – whenever you put in a page, it’ll be replaced with the contents printed out by a filter for that page. You can setup some filter settings by providing appropriate parameters to a short code. In this case, the settings you provide will override those that are set in the plugin settings page.

Hi markgambino,
WP Posts Filter doesn’t show the images because it uses the get_the_excerpt() function of WP to generate the excerpt for a post (if there is no). This function cleans the post contents off of the html-tags. That’s why you can’t see in-post images. So, to get images display working, you need to add your own excerpt in the post. You’ll probably need to switch on the display of a post excerpt in the post edit page. To do so, go to Screen settings in the add/edit post page (above the page) and check the excerpt checkbox.

brasofilo,

yes, it works great. I used this method in my WP Posts Filter plug-in. Metabox is just a div with the feature of folding. What I can tell you, is that it is barely a hack, as metabox could be applied in the settings page. It is undocumented though. And I suppose metabox could be applied everywhere, you just need to play with the screen value.

ken1990julius,
the reason why I used metabox in my plugin was simple: I needed a container for a bunch of controls and text, and count of these elements could be unlimited. Since that, having blocks with folding feature is much better for UX.

Hi,
thanks for your message, I’m glad you find the plugin helpful ??
If you need to have a post excerpt to show images inside it’s text, you can set your own excerpt for the post with all the things you need. If you don’t have the excerpt field on the Add/edit post page, you can click Screen Options button and check the Excerpt checkbox:
image
After that, fill the excerpt of a post with the HTML-code containing <img> tags pointing the picture you want to see in the excerpt. Save and reload the page with the filter.
The plugin uses the the_excerpt() function of WP to create excerpts automatically. This way, it removes all html-tags from the post and shows first 55 words of a post. If you set your own excerpt for a post, this function is not called for this post. Find the description of the function here.

Suggsy,
you mean you want to include this info after every post of a selection?

You can adjust your settings either using shortcode parameters or heading/content class settings in the plugin settings page. Just give a different name to a style you wan to adjust. In your case, you can set different style for the post heading. Just give it a name that differs from entry-title, e.g. antother-entry-title. Then set it up in the style.css file of your theme by adding something like this:

.another-entry-style {
    margin-top:<a number of>px;
}

You can also set more than one css-style to an element. This way, it would look like this: entry-title adjusted-padding in plugin settings page or a shortcode on a page. After that, you need to change style.css of your theme. This way, it would look like this:

.adjusted-padding {
    padding-top:<a number of>px;
}

Oh, and the last case I forgot to mention is you don’t even need to change style names in plugin settings page or a shortcode, just edit an entry for .entry-title style in style.css of your theme. Obviously, you’ll get changes applied to ALL tags with .entry-title style on your website then.

Hope it helps.
P.S.:Sorry for late reply. Seems like notification mail fell in to the spam folder.

Thanks!

BTW, in v0.1 you were able to style pages too and you can still do this using v0.1 way – simply define a parameter you need in the shortcode, e.g.

[wppf heading_tag="h2" heading_class="my_entry_heading_class"]

The diffference between 0.1 and 0.2 is that in v0.2 parameters from the shortcode has the higher priority, which means previosly defined (on the plugin settings page) styles and tags will be overriden by them.

DavyB, thanks for keeping me updated with this
