mattywebbHi there,
Im setting up a site, i have a standard blog on the front page - and i have used the "widget logic" plug in to define what sidebar modules I want on the front page, and which ones should be on the rest.
It was all working fine... Ive now used the "Custom Post Type Manger" to create a custom post type. Im using a custom wp_query to call posts from this post type...
However - for reasons i can't explain - the sidebar seams to forget that i have told it to only display specific things on this page - and just defaults to what is shown on the front page...
Im banging my head against the wall - if anyone can help it would be very much appreciated...
Here is my page displaying custom post types...
http://203.123.59.75/~ninaleve/about/film/
The sidebar should be displaying the same stuff as this page (it was before i inserted the custom loop)
http://203.123.59.75/~ninaleve/about/
Here is the code i have used in the template with the custom query..
<?php
/*
Template Name: Film Template
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<h1>Film</h1>
<section id="main-content">
<?php global $wp_query;
$wp_query = new WP_Query("post_type=film&post_status=publish");
while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<article <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php the_content(); ?>
</article>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
</section>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
