Blog Page Showing Page Name
-
Hi folks,
I’m working on a theme that one of my clients bought and I’m having a hard time. They wanted the home page and the blog to be the same, so naturally I copied the index.php file and created a blog template out of it. For some reason the loops aren’t working on the blog page and they are just showing the page name as a category but not any of the posts. You can see the blog page preview here: http://tinyurl.com/br8efzw
I don’t understand what I did wrong. Any thoughts?

Try publishing the page first. We can’t view your “preview only” pages.
It will show content published on that page, but there are no posts. Does it think the category is that page for some reason?
Make sure that your
<?php the_title(); ?>
is after the loop start.There’s no <?php the_title(); ?> in the page at all. It’s in the header so it seems.
change the loop on this page to a default loop…
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?> <?php endwhile; else: ?> <p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p> <?php endif; ?>
Make sure that between
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
INSERT YOUR POST THEMING CODE HERE
<?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p> <?php endif; ?>
Not sure I have anything that looks like that. The page code is as follows:
<?php /* Template Name: Blog */ ?> <?php get_header(); ?> <div id="main" class="clearfix"> <div id="content" class="full clearfix twoThird"> <?php $c=0; $post_count = $wp_query->post_count; ?> <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <?php $c++; ?> <?php $postClass = has_post_thumbnail() ? $postClass = "withThumb" : $postClass = ""; ?> <?php $postClass = $c == $post_count ? $postClass = $postClass." lastPost" : $postClass = $postClass; ?> <div class="post clearfix <?php echo $postClass; ?>"> <?php if(has_post_thumbnail()) : ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" ><?php the_post_thumbnail('ttrust_small', array('class' => 'postThumb', 'alt' => ''.get_the_title().'', 'title' => ''.get_the_title().'')); ?></a> <?php endif; ?> <div class="inside"> <div class="metaCat"><?php _e('In', 'themetrust'); ?> <?php the_category(', ') ?></div> <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" ><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1> <div class="meta clearfix"> <?php _e('Posted by:', 'themetrust'); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> <?php _e('on', 'themetrust'); ?> <?php the_time( 'M j, Y' ) ?> | <a href="<?php comments_link(); ?>"><?php comments_number(__('No Comments', 'themetrust'), __('One Comment', 'themetrust'), __('% Comments', 'themetrust')); ?></a> </div> <?php $content = get_the_content(''); ?> <?php $content = apply_filters('the_content', $content); ?> <?php echo wpt_strip_content_tags($content); ?> <?php more_link(); ?> </div> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php include( TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/pagination.php'); ?> </div> <!-- end content --> <?php get_sidebar(); ?> </div> <?php get_footer(); ?>
Try this `<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
?><?php get_header(); ?>
<div id=”main” class=”clearfix”>
<div id=”content” class=”full clearfix twoThird”>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php $c++; ?>
<?php $postClass = has_post_thumbnail() ? $postClass = “withThumb” : $postClass = “”; ?>
<?php $postClass = $c == $post_count ? $postClass = $postClass.” lastPost” : $postClass = $postClass; ?>
<div class=”post clearfix <?php echo $postClass; ?>”><?php if(has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
<a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” ><?php the_post_thumbnail(‘ttrust_small’, array(‘class’ => ‘postThumb’, ‘alt’ => ”.get_the_title().”, ‘title’ => ”.get_the_title().”)); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class=”inside”>
<div class=”metaCat”><?php _e(‘In’, ‘themetrust’); ?> <?php the_category(‘, ‘) ?></div>
<h1><a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” ><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
<div class=”meta clearfix”>
<?php _e(‘Posted by:’, ‘themetrust’); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> <?php _e(‘on’, ‘themetrust’); ?> <?php the_time( ‘M j, Y’ ) ?> | <a href=”<?php comments_link(); ?>”><?php comments_number(__(‘No Comments’, ‘themetrust’), __(‘One Comment’, ‘themetrust’), __(‘% Comments’, ‘themetrust’)); ?></a>
</div>
<?php $content = get_the_content(”); ?>
<?php $content = apply_filters(‘the_content’, $content); ?>
<?php echo wpt_strip_content_tags($content); ?>
<?php more_link(); ?>
</div>
</div><?php endwhile; ?>
<?php include( TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/includes/pagination.php’); ?>
</div> <!– end content –><?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div><?php get_footer(); ?>`
Still only displaying the page title.
That should be enough…` <?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
?><?php get_header(); ?>
<div id=”main” class=”clearfix”>
<div id=”content” class=”full clearfix twoThird”>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php $c++; ?>
<?php $postClass = has_post_thumbnail() ? $postClass = “withThumb” : $postClass = “”; ?>
<?php $postClass = $c == $post_count ? $postClass = $postClass.” lastPost” : $postClass = $postClass; ?>
<div class=”post clearfix <?php echo $postClass; ?>”><?php if(has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
<a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” ><?php the_post_thumbnail(‘ttrust_small’, array(‘class’ => ‘postThumb’, ‘alt’ => ”.get_the_title().”, ‘title’ => ”.get_the_title().”)); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class=”inside”>
<div class=”metaCat”><?php the_category(‘, ‘) ?></div>
<h1><a href=”<?php the_permalink() ?>” rel=”bookmark” ><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
<div class=”meta clearfix”>
Posted By:<?php the_author_posts_link(); ?><?php the_time( ‘M j, Y’ ) ?> | <a href=”<?php comments_link(); ?>”><?php comments_number(__(‘No Comments’, ‘themetrust’), __(‘One Comment’, ‘themetrust’), __(‘% Comments’, ‘themetrust’)); ?></a>
</div>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php more_link(); ?>
</div>
</div><?php endwhile; ?>
<?php include( TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/includes/pagination.php’); ?>
</div> <!– end content –><?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div><?php get_footer(); ?> `
Why isnt /code working in forum?
Still doesn’t work. Still only displaying page title. Code just worked for me a few minutes ago when I posted the original page code.
