Use the template tag, query_posts(), and one of the tag arguments:
* tag
* tag__and
* tag__in
* tag_slug__and
* tag_slug__in
If you want to use the page title to grab posts with tags matching the title, find this in your page.php (assuming you have one).
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>
and switch that for..
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php
query_posts('tag='.strtolower(get_the_title()).'&post_type=post');
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
the_title();
endwhile;
?>
<?php endif; ?>
Not sure how valid or correct that is, but it does work… (and you’d of course need to add your own markup around the_title() area…
t31os_, I’m afraid I’m either doing something wrong, or it doesn’t work for me. First of all, I don’t have <?php endwhile; endif; ?>. 🙂 There is a “not found” piece of text between <?php endwhile; else: ?> and <?php endif; ?> (I based my theme on Kubrick).
MichaelH, I’m sorry but I’ve already went through these parts of the Codex before. The problem is, I think I need to put another loop inside existing one. I need WP to fetch the static page’s content and list some blog entries after it at once. Your reply is not helpful at all, because I just don’t know where to start, sorry. 🙁
I think both MichaelH and t310s_ have shown you the way.
I’ll try to amplify them a bit.
1.You create a page template for this purpose in the theme.
2. There IS the string “<?php endwhile; endif; ?>” in the default theme.
3. Split them as indicated by t31os_: one loop for fetching the content of the Page another governed by the query – query_posts('tag=Mary Sue');
4. Add the template tags to suit your requirement – title with the permalink or except or the whole post of those having the tag “Mary Sue”
Hope I make sense!
PS: I just tested it in my localhost and it works!
S.K
I must’ve learnt the query_posts() page by heart by now, but I must be too dumb to make it work. 🙁 Sorry guys. 🙁 Will have to go without it.
