Try:
<?php
$ctitle=single_cat_title();
wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name='.$ctitle); ?>
It doesn’t work … it ignore the $ctitle… any idea? … thanks…
There’s an error in your use of wp_list_bookmarks. There’s no show_name parameter. Try
<?php
$ctitle=single_cat_title();
wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0&show_description=1&category_name='.$ctitle); ?>
The how_name parameter exists in wp_list_bookmarks function
if i use
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name=CATEGORIATEST‘); ?>
it works
the proble is to pass a variable as value for category_name option…
Thanks for your time…
Noone knows if is possible?
Is this code inside or outside The Loop?
And my bad with show_name but it only work when show_images is TRUE.

yes i have the image for the link and it is all ok with show name…
the code is out of the loop…
Try re-reading the Codex page. You need to set show_images to TRUE if you want show_name to work.
Using single_cat_title() as a parameter to category_name for wp_list_bookmarks doesn’t even make any sense.
Post categories and Link Categories are wholly separate. The single_cat_title() returns a post category, but bookmarks is expecting a link category.
Won’t work.
Hi OTTO
i knw that the link category are different from post category, but i have the category with same name.
EXAMPLE
Link Category name -> MOTOR
Post Category name -> MOTOR
I put the code
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name=single_cat_title()’); ?>
in Categoy post page to show the link of the link category with same name.
if i use
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name=MOTOR‘); ?>
it works
but i need to pass the single_cat_title() cvariable so it works for all category
THANKS
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name=single_cat_title()‘); ?>
You’re trying to run a function inside of a string, which will make PHP treat it as part of the string. You need to append functions’ output or use a variable and either append that or include it in a string surrounded by double quotes.
single_cat_title by default outputs the category as text too, so you’d be better off doing something like:
<?php wp_list_bookmarks( single_cat_title( 'title_li=&categorize=0&show_name=1&show_description=1&category_name=', false ) ); ?>
(first parameter is the prefix, second tells PHP to return it as a string instead of outputting it)
Which would be the same as:
<?php
$ctitle=single_cat_title();
wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0&show_description=1&category_name='.$ctitle); ?>
Yes?
Not quite, you need to pass false as the 2nd argument to single_cat_title() for it to return rather than print the output. Sorry, I did see your post, but I think mariatmind just kind’ve skipped over it 🙂
Thanks Kawauso but i still have problems,
with your code it dosn’t filter the lik by category name,
it shows links of all the link categoy…
Any ideas???
You’re right. It should be:
<?php
$ctitle=single_cat_title('', false);
wp_list_bookmarks('title_li=&categorize=0&show_description=1&category_name='.$ctitle); ?>
{just in case anyone else reads this thread)
