In reply to: [Frontend Checklist] Great Plugin, any chance a progress meter could be addedThe link for the download of the progress bar version is not working. Do you have an updated link for that file download?
Could you share some details about how this was dealt with? I’m looking for same thing.

In reply to: [Awesome Filterable Portfolio] Sort portfolio items?@mikemelchiot – sadly, that plugin doesn’t work with the portfolio items.
AUTHOR: Is there anyway to adjust the query for which the portfolio pulls? I can’t seem to find it in the PHP file. It’d be easy to at least add the “page attributues” to each post, and then add a sort by menu order to the query. We could then at least manually adjust the order we want them displayed in. Or we could just add a order_by post title to the query as well.

In reply to: [Awesome Filterable Portfolio] Equal heightsYou can also just adjust the styling of the tiles in your CSS.
li.afp-single-item { width:150px; min-height: 250px; }That will make everything the same width and adjust the height that they have the same baseline.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Change the taxonomy?FWIW, I decided the easiest way to go about doing what I needed to be done is to change the native “posts” function to be the post type that I wanted to use post tiles for, and created a CPT that I will use as my blog posts. Turns out for me, it was easier to create a new post query to pull the CPT on the blog template page than it was to figure out how to change the plugin to be able to work best with a CPT.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] [Plugin: Post Tiles] Sorting@lmilesw – you can edit line #379 in post-tiles.php to adjust the query and add in a parameter to sort however you’d like. I wanted a specific order in my query, and changed the code so that I could manually select the post order based upon the number assigned through the page attributes. The code looks like this:
$the_query = $posts_query.$cat_query.'&paged='.$paged .'&orderby=menu_order';You can see at the end, I have it sorted by
menu_order, but you can also sort by author, title, date, etc. For more information on sorting attributes, go to http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Parameters and scroll down to Orderby.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Post Tiles] [Plugin: Post Tiles] SortingIs there a way in which we could use the “Page Attributes” to set the order of the posts? I have a CPT which I enabled the “Page attributes” on the post type. Would love to be able to manually set order.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Change the taxonomy?Ethan, I only have about half of it working. I can get the posts and the taxonomy on the admin side, and the posts on the frontend, but I can’t get the taxonomy for the frontend to work. Do you have any suggestions on how to do that next part?
If I change a color on the admin panel, it doesn’t reflect on the front-end, and the front-end doesn’t call the different categories.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Change the taxonomy?You’ll also want to change the same piece of code on line 62 as well. And these changes are in the post-tiles.php file.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Change the taxonomy?I’ve been able to pull the custom taxonomy into the admin area by modifying line 166.
I changed the default line:
// Get all Post Categories $categories = get_categories();to
// Get all Post Categories $categories = get_categories(array ('taxonomy' => 'resource'));We can modify the query there to call a custom taxonomy. I still however, have not figured out how to have the frontend communicate with this new taxonomy to display the new categories on the homepage.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Adding the post title on the ThumbnailsI added a uniform post tile background image by editing the CSS on the pluging.
Line 147
ul#post-tile li aI added abackground-imageproperty and it works great! Still can pull up a feature image, and can display a color overlay upon hover.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Post Tiles] Adding the post title on the Thumbnails+1 For this… I’d love to overlay the title on the featured image. Or be able to set a background image rather than BG color.

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Post Tiles & Custom Post TypeAny thoughts on how to use the categories with a CPT? I’ve been able to alter the query to be able to pull the CPT posts, but need the categories to go along with them. Suggestions on that?
@cocha – thanks for introducing me to the ‘Page Link To’ plugin. Sure simplifies some things!

In reply to: [Post Tiles] Post Tiles & Custom Post TypeRyan – ‘post_type=any’ pulls everything, including pages. It works perfectly, just includes pages as well. So it gets me closer, but not quite. I’ve tried playing around with calling an array, but with no luck.
What I used but doesn’t work. (my CPT is “staffmembers):
'&post_type=array('post','staffmembers')'Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Post Tiles] Post Tiles & Custom Post Type@ryan/@Ethan – The issue I see here, is that it can then either pull the CPT or the normal posts, but not both. Right?
