I’m assuming that you know the $posttitles, $posttags, $postcatergories, $postauthors, $postdates are custom variables that have additional code written to perform the function and you have some understanding of php and how to write those codes.
PHP is not my area of expertise, self-taught. But this is the basics for those variables:
$posttitle = $post->post_title;
$postdate = mysql2date( 'F j, Y', $post->post_date );
$permalink = get_permalink( $postID );
This is the basic foreach loop to get the post tags.
// If post has tags
$posttagslink = "";
$posttagsall = get_the_tags( $postID );
if ( $posttagsall )
{
foreach($posttagsall as $tag)
{
$taglink = get_tag_link( $tag->term_id );
$posttagslink .= '<a href="' . $taglink . '">' . $tag->name . '</a>, ';
}
$posttagslinks = rtrim( $posttagslink, ', ' );
$posttags = " | Tagged with: " . $posttagslinks;
}
This is the basic foreach loop to get the post categories.
// If post has categories
$postcategorieslinks = "";
$postcategoriesall = get_the_category( $postID );
if ( $postcategoriesall)
{
foreach($postcategoriesall as $cat)
{
$catlink = get_category_link( $cat->term_id );
$postcategorieslinks .= '<a href="' . $catlink . '">' . $cat->name . '</a>, ';
}
$postcatlinks = rtrim( $postcategorieslinks, ', ' );
$postcategories = " | Posted in: " . $postcatlinks;
}
This is the code for single author environment
$postauthorsID = $post->post_author;
$postauthorname = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $postauthorsID );
$postauthors = 'by <a href="'. get_author_posts_url( $postauthorsID ) . '">' . $postauthorname . '</a>';
Hopefully this can give you some direction and you can modify it to your particular needs. Good luck!
