Could try coping the theme parent category.php to your child theme, and then in that template delete the template tag, the_content().
I’ve copied the category.php over to the child theme though I do not know where to delete “the_content()”.
This is code which is in the category.php:
<?php
// calling the header.php
get_header();
// action hook for placing content above #container
thematic_abovecontainer();
?>
<div id="container">
<div id="content">
<?php
// displays the page title
thematic_page_title();
// create the navigation above the content
thematic_navigation_above();
// action hook for placing content above the category loop
thematic_above_categoryloop();
// action hook creating the category loop
thematic_categoryloop();
// action hook for placing content below the category loop
thematic_below_categoryloop();
// create the navigation below the content
thematic_navigation_below();
?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php
// action hook for placing content below #container
//thematic_belowcontainer();
// calling the standard sidebar
thematic_sidebar();
// calling footer.php
get_footer();
?>
Probably could just delete
thematic_categoryloop();
Ah just tried that and it removes everything off the category view including the post titles sadly.
Oops, see that. For now at line 261 in thematic/extensions/content-extension.php change to <?php // thematic_content(); ?>
Seems the better way is to filter that via a function like this in your functions.php
function no_content_for_cat_templates($content) {
if( is_category() ) {
$content = 'none'; //none, excerpt, or full
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('thematic_content', 'no_content_for_cat_templates');
Okay, well when I add that function to the very bottom of the functions.php in my child theme it brings up this error:
function no_content_for_cat_templates($content) { if( is_category() ) { $content = 'none'; //none, excerpt, or full } return $content; } add_filter('thematic_content', 'no_content_for_cat_templates');
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/decafmer/public_html/wp-content/themes/BunchofAnime/functions.php:129) in /home/decafmer/public_html/wp-content/plugins/si-contact-form/si-contact-form.php on line 2160
Start with a fresh functions.php and make sure that code is inside the
<?php
and
?>
Ah that was the problem, didn’t put them in those tags. Now that I put that code in without any errors now what?
Well that should stop the full post content from displaying on category archive views. Am I missing something?
The category archive view originally doesn’t display what’s inside of it, but shows information about it like this:
Post Title 1
By Author | Published: March 22, 2010 | Edit
Posted in Post Title 1 | Comments closed | Edit
What I would like it look like is:
Post Title 1
Without it having the other information shown.
Okay–a bit more for your functions.php file
function no_postmeta_for_cat_templates($postmeta) {
if( is_category() ) {
$postmeta='';
}
return $postmeta;
}
add_filter('thematic_postheader_postmeta', 'no_postmeta_for_cat_templates');
function no_postfooter_for_cat_templates($postfooter) {
if( is_category() ) {
$postfooter='';
}
return $postfooter;
}
add_filter('thematic_postfooter', 'no_postfooter_for_cat_templates');
Ah brilliant!! That bit of code worked perfectly. Thanks!
Now is there any way to alter the spacing in between titles and the amount of titles shown on a single page?
