Does anyone know if it possible to have the edit_post_link tag work in an Archives template? I have had no luck putting it in and would appreciate anyone's help.
btw: yes, I've placed it within the Loop, but no luck.

What do you call an Archives template?
archive.php- yes.
archives.php- (which is a Page template BTW listing months and categories) no. -

archive.php...Can you explain how to, moshu? Thnx.

What do you mean "how to"? It just has to be inserted in the template file.
Whether it'sarchive.phporarchives.php- that depends on the theme, not the WP version. Some themes have one of them, others none of them... and some both :)
Which theme?Can't you just look at how it is inserted in the index.php and copy the code into your archive template?

Posted 6 years ago #Nope; I've been trying that and I get
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}'...Here's what I am using:
<?php } edit_post_link('<img src="'.get_bloginfo(template_directory).'/images/icon_edit.gif" alt="Edit Link" />','<span class="editlink">','</span>'); ?>... which is working in the
single.phptemplate. -
I don't have such a code. Which theme?

edit_post_linkto display an image/icon instead of the text,Edit EntryI have just figured it out though ... what seems to have been the problem was the
}right after the<?php... I deleted that and now it works in myindex.phpfile, but I need it there to work on thesingle.phpfile ..........Weird, huh?

One line of code taken out of context might seem "weird" but probably it was part of a bigger picture :)
