ms-studioUntil now I was using this neat little code snippet in order to display neighbouring posts (i.e. posts inside the same category as the current one).
It was made from code taken here:
http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=1491
And looked like that, and did a perfect job:
<?php
if (is_single( )) {
$post_ID = $wp_query->posts[0]->ID;
$all_cats_of_post = get_the_category($post_ID);
for($i = 0; $i < sizeof($all_cats_of_post); $i++) {
// dont show the cat_ID 8 and 10
$categories = array(8, 10);
if(!in_array($all_cats_of_post[$i]->cat_ID, $categories)) {
?>
<div id="category-posts-<?php echo $all_cats_of_post[$i]->cat_ID; ?>" class="post-categories">
<h3><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?cat=<?php echo $all_cats_of_post[$i]->cat_ID; ?>"><?php echo $all_cats_of_post[$i]->cat_name; ?></a></h3>
<ul class="article-list">
<?php global $post; $cat_posts = query_posts(array(
'category__in' => array($all_cats_of_post[$i]->cat_ID),
//'tag_slug__in' => tag1+tag2,
'orderby'=>date,
'posts_per_page'=>5,
'order'=>DESC,
));
foreach($cat_posts as $post) :
?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="post-<?php echo $post->ID ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>I'm running now this template on a 3.1-beta1 test site, and I notice that this snipped doesn't output anything at all. It doesn't give any error message either.
The resulting HTML code from the function above:
<div id="category-posts-" class="post-categories">
<h3><a href="http://example.com/?cat="></a></h3>
<ul class="article-list">
</ul>
</div>Any idea what's going on? An unpatched 3.1-beta bug, or a deprecated function?
