 * I also only get an “ERROR: Incorrect username or password.” message if trying
   to log in as an unapproved user. Additionally the “Forgot password” form just
   redirects me back to /wp-login.php and I never receive an email.
 * I’m using `add_filter( 'new_user_approve_bypass_password_reset', '__return_false');`
 * UPDATE: I’ve tracked this down to the [Limit Login Attempts 1.7.1](http://wordpress.org/plugins/limit-login-attempts/)
   plugin. Unfortunately this is a plugin that our hosting provider (WP Engine) 
   forces all installs to use.
 * I’m hoping this is something that can be updated in your plugin because LLA does
   not look to be actively maintained. My last resort will be asking WP Engine to
   make an exemption for my site and remove LLA. Thanks!

 * [@josh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/josh/) Harrison Awesome! A feature
   request for said plugin: The ability to populate profile fields in that email.
   For example we have a custom ‘Bio’ field (it’s also a BuddyPress profile field
   for extra points) that is required and I’d love to have that info in the email.

 * And with the ‘proper’ syntax it looks like:
 *     ```
       <?php $query = new WP_Query(array(
           'post_type'      => 'talks',
           'posts_per_page' => 3,
           'talks_cat'   => 'featured',
         ));
   
         while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();
       ?>
   
         <?php the_title(); ?><br>
   
       <?php endwhile; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
       ```

 * Ah good to know, I’ll have to go through and switch everything to that syntax.
   Bt ‘etc.’ I just meant it’s not one of those silly things like not have a post
   with that category, etc. :).
 * FWIW: I did find a solution using the old query_posts syntax. I just had to put
   the ‘featured’ category in the context of the cutom taxonomy, e.g.:
 * `<?php query_posts('post_type=talks&showposts=3&uc_talks_cat=featured'); ?>`

 * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/listing-custom-posts-by-year-with-the-year-as-its-heading/#post-3529245)
 * And you can do a similar thing for categories:
 *     ```
       <?php $categories = get_categories(); ?>
       <?php foreach($categories as $cat) : ?>
         <h2><?php echo $cat->cat_name ?></h2>
   
         <?php query_posts('category_name='.$cat->slug); ?>
   
       <ul>
           <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
   
       <li><a>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> </li>
           <?php endwhile; endif; ?>
         </ul>
       <?php endforeach; ?>
       ```

 * For posterity, here is what I’ve done to get this working:
 *     ```
       <?php $years = $wpdb->get_col("SELECT DISTINCT YEAR(post_date) FROM $wpdb->posts ORDER BY post_date DESC"); ?>
       <?php foreach($years as $year) : ?>
           <h2><?php echo $year; ?></h2>
   
           <ul>
             <?php query_posts('year='.$year); ?>
             <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
               <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
             <?php endwhile; endif; ?>
           </ul>
       <?php endforeach; ?>
       ```
