I found this and could try to use it, but I’m not sure exactly how I tweak it to show meta for those categories, or how to plug my category id’s into it:
$post_categories = wp_get_post_categories( $post_id );
$cats = array();
foreach($post_categories as $c){
$cat = get_category( $c );
$cats[] = array( 'name' => $cat->name, 'slug' => $cat->slug );
}
The language on the page is also beyond my scope atm: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_post_categories
Please let me know if I’m posting this in the wrong place or if I need to supply more information. The child theme is for Twenty Eleven.
Perhaps you could post a link to your site and explain exactly what do you want to do.
Good luck.
I have a site that requires all meta data to be removed from almost all categories, say approximately 45 out of 50 categories.
As I stated, currently it is using a child theme that removes *all* meta data. I want the other five categories to show the meta data. (category, author, date)
I prefer not to link to my site.
Why does it say wang7889 started this post?
So, after hours of studying, I may be closer (I could really use some help…)
It looks like I might want to put something like this in a php file (functions?), but I don’t know if I have it right and I’m not sure which file.
Again, I’m trying to only have meta-data (ie: author, date, category) show up in certain categories and not in others. This would be to only show meta-data in those categories whose id’s are shown:
function exclude_category_meta () {
if ! in_category( array( 56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65) ) delete_post_meta }
<?php exclude_category_meta() ?>
Am I getting close?
Halo,
I’m trying to do the same- did you get this to work?
Nope, didn’t get anyone to help me and I’ve been studying it as new tweaks come up, but I still haven’t figured out how to mess with functions.php and my child theme. Still have it set to remove all meta.
I’m having a similar problem, I only want to remove metatdata on specific categories. I am not sure if this will work for me: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/50961/removing-post-meta-from-category-pages
Please post your own topic.
