Hi David, nope, it’s not a Post Type per se, it’s a Category. And since the Search box is in my Archive.php page, the ‘value’ should be dynamic to search in the Books category when showing the Books archive posts, same for Movies, etc…

Thank you for you help 😉

Hi David, thank you for your reply. Unfortunately my blog is offline for now but it was a problem I also encountered with my previous theme…

I have another problem (but surely related) when I’m on the 404 page (www.mywebsite.com/bookz/ instead of http://www.mywebsite.com/books/). When I do a search for Hemingway from this 404 error page, despite of showing all the results for Hemingway (there are plenty!) it returns ‘0 post found’ and the URL is http://www.mywebsite.com/bookz/?s=Hemingway instead of http://www.mywebsite.com/?s=Hemingway…

I know you’re kind of blind here but what do you think it could be? I searched on Google and the WP Forums and couldn’t find anything :\

In case it helps, here is my search box:

<form role="form" id="searchform" method="get" action="<?php home_url(); ?>">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="s" id="s" class="form-control" placeholder="Search..." >
<span class="input-group-addon">
<button type="submit">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span>
</button>  
</span>
</div>
</form>

Thank you for your help! 🙂

I didn’t use a Plugin (I installed one and then removed it) because I preferred to add some code to my functions.php.

function add_taxonomies_to_pages() {
 register_taxonomy_for_object_type( 'post_tag', 'page' );
 register_taxonomy_for_object_type( 'category', 'page' );
 }
add_action( 'init', 'add_taxonomies_to_pages' );
 if ( ! is_admin() ) {
 add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'category_and_tag_archives' );
 
 }
function category_and_tag_archives( $wp_query ) {
$my_post_array = array('post','page');
 
 if ( $wp_query->get( 'category_name' ) || $wp_query->get( 'cat' ) )
 $wp_query->set( 'post_type', $my_post_array );
 
 if ( $wp_query->get( 'tag' ) )
 $wp_query->set( 'post_type', $my_post_array );
}

It works fine but unfortunately, the permalink doesn’t work like I would like.

And yes, I set up my permalinks to include categories:

/%category%/%postname%/

I tried to use .htaccess to redirect:

myblog.com/concerts

to:

myblog.com/category/music/rock/concerts

But it doesn’t work neither… 🙁

Hi thaikolja, sure. Let’s say my secondary titles usually contain 60 to 80 characters, but to fit my homepage design, I need to show shortened secondary titles (only 30 characters), how can I do that? It is possible to do it for Post Titles (there are plenty of snippets and plugins) but I have no idea how to do it with your plugin.

Hope it helps 🙂

Thank you very much Jared! 🙂

Hi Martin, so it is linked to the length of the tweet? I’ve read the thread (I always check the forum before asking a question) but I thought it was something else…

Ok, then, thank you!

Hi Michael, thanks for your help but it doesn’t work, the query breaks my page, it’s all blank now…

Here’s my code:

<?php $args = array( 
	'posts_per_page' => 2,
	'post__not_in' => get_option( 'sticky_posts' ),
	'meta_key' => '_thumbnail_id', 	
	'meta_compare' => 'NOT EXISTS') 

$no_featured_image = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $no_featured_image->have_posts() ) : $no_featured_image->the_post();
?>

My text

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

I don’t know what’s wrong… 🙁
