you CAN call reset query in the logic like that, but there’s a specific option at the foot of the widget admin page (see http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/screenshots/ ) that calls it before the sidebar is called

also, note if you use full php logic like that you need to explicitly ‘return !is_front_page()’, ie put in which value you would like to RETURN. and also you need to put a ; at the end (see http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/other_notes/ ) to make it valid php

the .htaccess file does that. it redirects everything that isn’t to an existing file/folder to the WP index.php which then reads the URL and parses it to find out what was requested

for a static page you do want to use !is_front_page()

i’ll look at the atahualpa code but it’s not that simple. have you tried the wp_reset_query and reading the faq generally?

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/faq/

ok, you could do it entirely in the filter by using your own global in the ttftext_widget_title function. flip the global between two values and do some more preg_replacing to insert extra text into the class=”” bit of the LI item to flip between two classes, and to call the_ttftext appropriately.

something along the lines of (totally untested code off the top of my head)

global $sidebar_alt;
$sidebar_alt=($sidebar_alt==”_alt”)?””:”_alt”;
$insert_img=the_ttftext( $heading, false, “sidebar$sidebar_alt” );

(and there’s the preg_replace do to put in the class)

is there a recommended workround for this bug?

is_category(X,Y,Z) isn’t a valid use of the is_category tag.

http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags#A_Category_Page

is_category(array(X,Y,Z)) is ok and should work. but if it’s not for whatever odd reason you could try resorting to

is_category(X) || is_category(Y) || is_category(Z)

and so on. try to break it down to see where your code is going wrong. start with one category with is_category(X). if that works, try adding an ‘OR this category’ to make it work with 2 and so on.

FWIW i cobbled together the functionality to do this on my own site using a “?list=most_viewed” GET parameter to turn it on using this code in my functions.php

if ($_GET['list']=="most_viewed")
{	add_filter('posts_fields', 		'list_viewed_posts_fields');
	add_filter('posts_join_paged', 	'list_viewed_posts_join_paged');
	add_filter('posts_orderby', 	'most_viewed_posts_orderby');
}

function list_viewed_posts_fields($fields)
{	return $fields.", 0+meta_value as total_views"; }

function list_viewed_posts_join_paged($join)
{	global $wpdb;
	return $join." INNER JOIN $wpdb->postmeta ON ( $wpdb->posts.ID = $wpdb->postmeta.post_id AND $wpdb->postmeta.meta_key='views') ";
}

function most_viewed_posts_orderby($orderby)
{	return "total_views desc"; }

which uses a meta_field ‘views’ that stores hits for a post

I tried adding a file, moving it to a folder (/share from my www root folder) and then deleting the media library item, and it deleted it ok from the folder on the server.

i haven’t got a 2.8.2 to hand, but RU hasn’t changed a lot with minor WP updates.
