using wordpress theme Themematic with Gallery by chris wallace
by default the theme displays most recent posts. however i would like it to display categories and the posts that belong to those categories. For example: Click Here thats a little diagram i drew out.
I've been trying but not sure if its possible. if not possible is there at least a way to display at least one category? I found this forum topic from wordpress and someone who did it but my code is very different from this person's.
index.php file from themematic theme:
<?php
global $options;
foreach ($options as $value) {
if (get_option( $value['id'] ) === FALSE) { $$value['id'] = $value['std']; }
else { $$value['id'] = get_option( $value['id'] ); }
}
?>
<?php get_header() ?>
<div id="container">
<div id="content">
<?php thematic_navigation_above();?>
<?php get_sidebar('index-top') ?>
<?php thematic_above_indexloop() ?>
<?php thematic_indexloop() ?>
<?php thematic_below_indexloop() ?>
<?php get_sidebar('index-bottom') ?>
<?php thematic_navigation_below();?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php thematic_sidebar() ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer() ?>and this is from gallery theme's function.php where it creates the content for the index page/posts:
// Creating the content for the INDEX
function remove_index_loop() {
remove_action('thematic_indexloop', 'thematic_index_loop');
}
add_action('init', 'remove_index_loop');
function gallery_index_loop() {
global $post;
/* Count the number of posts so we can insert a widgetized area */ $count = 1;
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
<div id="post-<?php the_ID() ?>" class="<?php
thematic_post_class();
if(function_exists('p75GetVideo')){
if(p75GetVideo($post->ID)){
echo " video";
}
}
?>" style="width:670px;">
<div class="entry-content">
<?php childtheme_post_header() ?>
<a href="<?php echo the_permalink() ?>">
<span class="slide-title">
<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'designed-by', $single = true); ?>
<div style="width:145px; position:inherit; top:0px;" align="right">
<?php echo the_title(); ?>
</div></span>
<img class="full-image" src="
<?php if(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'full-image', $single = true)){echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'full-image', $single = true);}
else{bloginfo('url');
echo "/wp-content/themes/gallery/images/thumbnail-default.jpg";} ?>"
width="150" height="113" alt="<?php echo the_title() ?>" /></a>
</div>
</div><!-- .post -->
<?php comments_template();
if ($count==$thm_insert_position) {
get_sidebar('index-insert');
}
$count = $count + 1;
endwhile;
}
add_action('thematic_indexloop', 'gallery_index_loop');i know its a lot to ask for. but if anyone can help in anyway that would be truly wonderful. Thank you and godbless.
