come to think of it, aren’t you putting that code in single.php?

Template Hierarchy
No I’m putting the code in header.php, which worked so far, the only thing that didn’t work was the category detection on single.php.
The reason I started this post was because I wanted to use minimalized code, sure I could easely put the code in index.php/category.php and single.php instead, but if it’s possible not to, then that would be just a whole bunch greater 😉
Or isn’t this possible because single is in a different hierachy then category.php? And is that the reason why index.php would just take all the new posts also?
And again, here I go 🙂
How do I display posts per specific user ?
something with the_author ?
(The user is a subscriber)
To present links to an author’s posts:
1. Use the template tag, wp_list_authors(), in your sidebar or a Widget.
2. or, use template tag, the_author_posts_link(), in your loop.
To customize and author template read Author Templates
Yeah I know links to authors_posts, but I want to show the posts of specific authors.
Use the template tag, query_posts(), and the author= argument.
<?php
if ( is_page() ) {
$cats = wp_get_post_categories($author->ID);
$args=array(
'cat' => $cats[0],
'showposts'=> 6,
'author_name' => 'Specific_Username'
);
}
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;
?>
I’m beginning to understand this 😉
@michaelh,
Thanks a LOT for all your help!
