Hello All,
I am working on a website where I have links (Main Navigations) news gallery, awards, competition etc.. I would like to make these links to direct to the recent post from the each category which I have mentioned above. example if some one clicks on the NEWS link it the recent post from the NEWS category will open. I am using currently this code
<div id="home"><?php
global $post;
$latest_posts = get_posts('numberposts=1');
foreach($latest_posts as $latest) {
echo '<a href="'.get_permalink($latest->ID).'" class=main_menu_links>NEWS</a>';
}
?></div>
If it is only one category this can work well. What if different categories like the one which I have mentioned above? Please help me if you have any answer. Your help will be highly appreaciate.
Thank you in advance
If news gallery, awards, competition etc are categories and if you are using wp_list_categories to display navigation menu, won't it link to the recent posts from that particular category...
<?php wp_list_categories( ); ?> will only list the category links..it will not show the posts. What I need is if i click on the main menus (category name) i will be ale to see the recent post in side that particular gallery. Just like we are clicking on a static websites main Links.
Please help me!!!! any body here?
<?php
global $post;
$cats = get_categories();
foreach($cats as $cat){
$myposts = get_posts('numberposts=1&category=$cat->term_id');
foreach($myposts as $post) :
setup_postdata($post);
echo '<a href="'.the_permalink().'" class=main_menu_links>'.$cat->name.'</a>';
endforeach;
}
?>
cicking on the category names form your sidebar should show the all the posts from that category
