VicePrezhey guys,
im having trouble with a piece of code ive been working on. What im trying to do is grab 1 post from all the categories in my database and post it on my archives. The only trouble im experiencing is with css styling. Ive indicated where im having trouble below.
<?php
//for categories 1,3,4,5,6,7 show 3 posts
$cat_args=array(
'include' => '1,3,4,5,6,7',
'orderby' => 'name',
'order' => 'ASC'
);
$categories=get_categories($cat_args);
foreach($categories as $category) {
$args=array(
'showposts' => 1,
'category__in' => array($category->term_id),
'caller_get_posts'=>1
);?>
<?php
$posts=get_posts($args);
static $count = 0;
if ($posts) {
foreach($posts as $post) {
$count++;
setup_postdata($post);
?>
//TROUBLE STARTS HERE
<?php if ($count <= 3):?>
<div id="first-column">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/custom-temp/entry-box.php' ); ?>
</div>
<?php elseif ($count > 3):?>
<div id="second-column">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/custom-temp/entry-box.php' ); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
} // foreach($posts
} // if ($posts
} // foreach($categories
?>What happens is that when i wrap my "css styling template, entry-box.php" with the following divs:
<?php if ($count <= 3):?>
<div id="first-column">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/custom-temp/entry-box.php' ); ?>
</div>
<?php elseif ($count > 3):?>
<div id="second-column">
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/custom-temp/entry-box.php' ); ?>
</div>It wraps each individual post (with either the first-column, or second-column div, instead of "3" of the posts. To illustrate, say i outputted 6 posts, 1 from each category, im trying to wrap 3 of those posts into a column and the other three into a column parallel to it. Instead each individual post is being wrapped with the div i gave it.
Plus if u guys see anything wrong with my code, or notice things i can do to clean it up please let me know. Its my first time working with php and wordpress.
Thanks in advance.
