Try:
query_posts($query_string . '&offset=1');
If that doesn’t work may look at use the
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts($paged . '&offset=1');
Awesome !
Here’s my final code :
<?php query_posts ($query_string.'offset=1') ; ?>
<?php
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) :
the_post();
?>
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile;
endif;
?>
I just deleted the & , which seemed to interfere in '&offset=1');.
Many thanks.
I just deleted the & , which seemed to interfere in ‘&offset=1’);.
Don’t know why that is working…
It doesn’t seems to need the ‘&’ as a “connector”, maybe because there’s only one parameter : the offset ?
It’s in fact my main loop in index.php, and the only special parameter would be that offset (before that, I have another loop with a wp_query).
But don’t trust me, I’m not sure to do things totally right (even if the pagination works now), so any clarification would be cool.
I was filtering posts on a single page with the function call ‘query_posts’ and noticed after a while the same problem as the original poster (Dunkkan) – the unabillity to sift through older and newer posts with the next_posts_link or previous_posts_link call, and it was easily addressed to the query_post function, since if I turned it off, everything worked fine.
this seems to solve it. I’m not sure for how long though, since I’m quite novice to php and wordpress altogether. I make of use of the get_query_var and dynamically add the appropriate paged number to the offset variable.
<?php
//get the categories...
$submissions = get_cat_ID( 'submissions' );
$inspiration = get_cat_ID( 'inspiration' );
$finalist = get_cat_ID( 'finalist' );
$crew = get_cat_ID( 'crew' );
if(intval(get_query_var('paged'))>1){
$offset = '&offset='.((get_query_var('paged')-1)*10);
}else{
$offset = '&offset=0';
}
$querystring = 'cat='. $submissions.','.$inspiration.','.$finalist.','.$offset;
?>
<!--begin query-->
<?php query_posts($querystring.'&showposts=10'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>...
...<?php endif; ?>
<!--end query-->
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
sorry about that!
lost the category filtering due to a typo in the code above…
this:
$querystring = 'cat='. $submissions.','.$inspiration.','.$finalist.','.$offset;
should be this:
$querystring = 'cat='. $submissions.','.$inspiration.','.$finalist.$offset;
