Testimonial archive

Don’t bump in less than 24 hours much less than 2-business days. It’s rude.

If you want private or priority support, read how to obtain it at the bottom of http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/testimonials-widget/.

I’ll answer your question when I next come online from Sabah or Sarawak.

Cool, thanks. I really appreciate the apology and donation. You caught me still online, I was just thinking to nap before dinner here in Lawas, Sarawak, Malaysia.

I would recommend copying your theme’s current archive.php file to archive-testimonials-widget.php.

Then in the loop context area, revise the layout as desired. Within the loop itself or the renamed content.php to content-testimonials-widget.php you can use <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_custom">get_post_custom</a> to pull the custom meta data.

This will give you a result array like the following.

Array(
    [_edit_last] => Array
        (
            [0] => 1
        )

    [_edit_lock] => Array
        (
            [0] => 1358221258:1
        )

    [_metaidlast] => Array
        (
            [0] => 4
        )

    [testimonials-widget-title] => Array
        (
            [0] => Auckland, New Zealand
        )

    [testimonials-widget-email] => Array
        (
            [0] =>
        )

    [testimonials-widget-company] => Array
        (
            [0] =>
        )

    [testimonials-widget-url] => Array
        (
            [0] => http://wordpress.org/support/profile/gorgeouscreative
        )

    [_thumbnail_id] => Array
        (
            [0] => 14809
        )

    [_wp_old_slug] => Array
        (
            [0] => gorgeouscreative
        )
)

As you can see, the later array keys, like testimonials-widget-*, let you know which meta fields exist.

To have easier access, you can use <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta">get_post_meta</a> like get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'testimonials-widget-title', true ); to grab the single entry of the testimonial job title or location data.

Don’t forget to update content.php to content-testimonials-widget.php in your archive-testimonials-widget.php file, if needed.

Do you need more guidance?

Ciao!
