PHP &&?

    Right now, I made my whole wordpress blog display the_excerpt instead of the_content. But, I would like it to show the_content only on the video category page. Right now in the content.php files it grabs the extension “muimedia_post_entry_summary”. In my content extensions php file here is the code for the entry summary.

    /* muimedia_post_entry_summary */
if ( !function_exists( 'muimedia_post_entry_summary' ) ) {
	function muimedia_post_entry_summary() {
		?>
		<div class="entry-summary">
			<?php if (has_post_thumbnail()){ ?>
			<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute( array('before' => esc_attr__( 'Permalink: ', 'muimedia' ), 'after' => '')); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></a>
			<?php } ?>
			<div id="categorysummary">
			<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
			</div>
		</div>
		<?php
	}
}

    This code gets each post’s thumbnail and excerpt.. and I’m trying to get it to show the content ONLY on the videos category page. I tried the following:

    /* muimedia_post_entry_summary video page */
if ( !function_exists( 'muimedia_post_entry_summary' ) && is_category( 'videos' )  ) {
	 function muimedia_post_video_entry_summary() {
		?>
		<div class="entry-content">

			<?php the_content(); ?>

		</div>
		<?php
	}
}

    As you can see I tried the && is_category, I also tired || is_category and also replacing the category name with it’s ID. I don’t really know what else to do 🙁 If anyone could help me on this small issue it would meann soooo sooo much to me! It really would. As for right now I will be off my computer. But, I will make my return to my computer within the next 30 mins.. Hopefully YOU will have the right solution! 🙂 lolll

    Why not check if the attachment is of a certain MIME?

    @jose Castaneda Thx so much for the reply bro, I appreciate it!

    Here is the code that is calling the post entry summary…

    <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
	<?php do_action('muimedia_entry_title'); ?>

	<?php do_action('muimedia_post_before_entry_content'); ?>

	<?php do_action('muimedia_post_entry_summary'); ?>

	<?php do_action('muimedia_post_after_entry_content'); ?>
</div>

    To be honest, I have no idea what MIME’s are and I dont know if that would help to be honest. 🙁

    The file extension in simple terms. You can run a quick test and if it returns true then use the_content otherwise use the_excerpt

    @jose Castaneda I was just looking for a quick php code fix to get the_content to only show under one page (the video category page).

    Right now I have 

    /* muimedia_post_entry_summary video page */
if ( !function_exists( 'muimedia_post_entry_summary' ) && is_category( 'videos' )  ) {
	 function muimedia_post_video_entry_summary() {
		?>

    But it is not working. If you really think running “a quick test” will fix this problem, please tell me where and how I can run this test 🙂

    Sorry, totally misread that but even so it still is pretty quick it sounds like. If you have category-video.php you can use the_content instead. Try that. 🙂
