Hi @zydarek,
Hard to say what’s going on with so little details. Please share more info so I can help you out.
Share your shortcode too, please 😛 The URL alone doesn’t tell me much.
@hcabrera :
[wpp range='last7days' post_type='post' thumbnail_width=300 thumbnail_height=400 wpp_start='<ul class="wpp-grid">' post_html='<li>{thumb}{title}<i class="far fa-comments"></i> komentarzy: {comments} <i class="far fa-eye"></i> wyświetleń {views}</li>']
Try removing thepost_html
parameter, save changes and check again.Ignore, see below.

Update: you need to use the
stats_comments
parameter in the shortcode for it to display the comments count. From the documentation:{comments} (returns comments count only, no text, requires stats_comments=1)
So your shortcode should look like this now:
[wpp range='last7days' stats_comments=1 post_type='post' thumbnail_width=300 thumbnail_height=400 wpp_start='<ul class="wpp-grid">' post_html='<li>{thumb}{title}<i class="far fa-comments"></i> komentarzy: {comments} <i class="far fa-eye"></i> wyświetleń {views}</li>']
Note that the shortcode will only display the total number of comments received within the specified time range. In your case it’s just one comment, your “Bardzo fajny” comment was published on February 21st – exactly 8 days ago today.
I would like to get a functionality similar to this page:
https://cakesdecor.com/cakes
Where posts are displayed in 3 columns grid, the title, photo, author with an avatar, the number of views, the number of hearts (favorittes), and the number of comments. I would also like similar information to be displayed inside the post.
Also i need sorting the grid, e.g. most frequently displayed from the last 3 days, from the last week, from the month, most commented and the newest posts?
@hcabrera can you help me with prepare that template for your module?
Regards, Adrian
While what you described is perfectly doable these kind of requests are unfortunately outside the scope of support I provide here: answering questions about the functionality of the plugin itself, feature requests, and bug reports.
You may want to consider hiring a developer so they can help you implement all of these changes to your website if you don’t have the time and/or the skills to do it yourself.
Since you didn’t mention anything about the comments count issue you were having before I take it that my previous observation helped you fix it and so I’m marking this topic as resolved now. Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have (although if these are not somehow related to the original topic please open a new thread instead.)
@hcabrera Maybe you would be interested in this assignment, of course I will pay for it.
Unfortunately the WordPress Forum Guidelines explicitly forbid discussing these kind of topics here, see Do Not Offer to Pay for Help and Do Not Offer to Work For Hire (hence my previous remark.)
@hcabrera i’ve got almost everything 🙂 Last two things
Note that the shortcode will only display the total number of comments received within the specified time range.
-it’s possible to modify this to show comments count from all days (just all the comments from a post)
Its possible to sort posts by date (newest)?
@hcabrera I using also your plugin WP-PostRatings its possible to use in shortcode sorting by most rating?
it’s possible to modify this to show comments count from all days (just all the comments from a post)
Yep, but this requires a bit of work: you could register a new custom Content Tag (like this for example) that returns the value of the get_comments_number() function (sounds complicated but it’s not, trust me, follow these instructions and you should be able to get it working, if not feel free to ask any questions you may have.)
Its possible to sort posts by date (newest)?
Nope. For this one you’ll need to use a different plugin, like Recently for example.
I using also your plugin WP-PostRatings its possible to use in shortcode sorting by most rating?
WP-PostRatings isn’t my plugin 😛 It’s Lester Chan’s!
And no, WPP can’t sort posts by rating. Maybe one day.
