I’m having the same problem on my site. Is there a fix for this? I don’t think users are going to go thru all that trouble as outlined above.

A simple workaround to this is to add the link to the description field.

I haven’t found a good workaround for this, either. As of v2.7 in_category() works outside the loop, but doesn’t seem to work in the footer.php file.

When viewing single.php, I am trying to determine what category the article belongs to, then I am trying to highlight the footer nav accordingly. It doesn’t seem like it should be this hard :*-(

HI xwingyz,

Yes I did that, and it worked ?? I was just curious if there was a way to get around have to create the extra style.css file in the theme’s root directory.

I don’t think there is…

Anyone else had an issue with this?

I’ve yet to come across a way to do this. It’s too bad there’s no ‘advanced’ tab as there is with the images. There, you can add any class you want. I don’t have a problem entering the classes in manually in the editor myself, but it’s pain when I do client work and they need a special class for a link here and there. No one’s found a work around? I’d love to hear what you did ??

I think the above sample was missing an ‘&’

<?php
query_posts($query_string.'posts_per_page=4&amp;cat=8&amp;order_by=date&amp;order=ASC');
while(have_posts()) { the_post();
<!-- put your loop here -->
}
?>

I think should be:

<?php
query_posts($query_string.'&amp;posts_per_page=4&amp;cat=8&amp;order_by=date&amp;order=ASC');
while(have_posts()) { the_post();
<!-- put your loop here -->
}
?>

Has anyone else had this problem? changing the location of the style sheets makes the theme inactive if you are in theme section of the wp-admin?

This seems to work initially, but when I add page templates, they are not found. Then, when I visit the ‘Theme’ page it says the theme style sheet is missing and reverts to the the default theme. This seems odd, as the link is correct and the design of the site is fine prior to visiting the theme section.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Okay, I’ve figured it out. I was just a bit confused on how the ‘static’ page setup worked. The ‘posts’ page is not the single view, as I had thought, but what is normally the default index.php or ‘home’ view. I also had a naming conflict as I had named by page home.php.

Anyway, all set now!

Well the Home page is really just a re-worked version of the default index.php file. Basically, the home page displays mostly static content, but also pulls in 2 of the most recent posts.

You seem to be right though that same page is popping up regardless.

The flow should be like this:

1. User visits home page, clicks on article ‘teaser’
2. User is taken to the article detail/press release page
3. Alternatively, the user can view a Press Release page, which shows ALL the current press releases.

I am going to play around with it some more and see if I can figure it out.

Thanks!

Ah, nice. Thanks chaoskaizer!
