Say Kei has author id of 5 and Jim has author id of 7, then the LINE 7 and 21 of http://pastebin.com/328591 will look like the following
LINE 7
<?php query_posts( 'author=5&showposts=5' ); ?>
LINE 21
<?php query_posts( 'author=7&showposts=5' ); ?>
Go to admin panel User -> Authors and Users to find out the author id.
yeah, Kei= 1 and Jim = 2 so i dont understand why it’s doing what it’s doing.
You DON’T put “kei” nor “Jim” in the code. you will have only, again, the following.
LINE 7
<?php query_posts( 'author=1&showposts=5' ); ?>
LINE 21
<?php query_posts( 'author=2&showposts=5' ); ?>
damn I feel like an idiot.
i can feel your vein pulsing at the idiocy.
I’ll try now.
*hugs*
thank you!
I’ll be updating this thread later to let you know of my progress and hopefully success!
i’m back, and being an idiot.
I’ve searched that page and inserted strings here and there but to no avail.
I just dont know how to make a line between the two categories.
and I dont know how to force it to display the post partially followed by a ‘read more’
I added <?php the_content(‘Read on…’); ?>
and it shows the text, but it doesn’t summarize. 🙁
In order to make the “more…” to work, you have to insert that “quicktag” in your text when writing the post – where you want the text to break.
Study your own admin panel 🙂
