Thanks Nadia,
I meant on the front end. For some reason no posts were being returned when I first tried get_posts. In the end this worked for me:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'attachment',
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'post_status' =>'any',
);
$attachments = new WP_Query($args);
if ($attachments) {
foreach ( $attachments->posts as $attachment ) {
echo '<br>' . wp_get_attachment_url($attachment->ID) ;
}
}
Thanks!
Sorry, no! This actually isn’t getting by category yet. If I enter in ‘category_name’ as an option I get nothing returned.
@madturki,
You have to study examples on this page http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query more carefully.
What you need is something like:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'attachment',
'post_status' => 'any',
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'NAME_OF_YOUR_TAXONOMY',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => 'NAME_OF_THE_TERM_OF_YOUR_TAXONOMY'
)
)
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
$the_query->the_post();
echo wp_get_attachment_image( get_the_ID(), 'full' );
}
} else {
// no attachments found
}
wp_reset_postdata();
Hope it helps.
Nadia
