Hi I’m looking for same function. The only way I think to get this is combining roles and jquery.

1) Install a role manager plugin. Create a new role called “Clients”. Add news users with this role (if you want to upload logos, you will need to instal User Photo plugin too).

2) Display users with “Client” role via handcoding this function.

3) Make the slider using this jquery plugin

I know that this isn’t the best solution, but is the nearest I catch to get what you are looking for. The bad think is that I will can’t order users by “relevance” in the future (users can be ordered, by ID, nicename for example).

I also looking for a wordpress plugin to do this easier.

ps: sorry for my english.

Hi Simon. Thanks for your reply. I’m using lastest version of the plugin. I just want to use the plugin as referred in the “Other notes” section.

For example, I want to be able to call category icons via ID but instead I tried with all te code posibilities, I cant’ get it to work, so I came with this hack for categories IDs http://wordpress.org/support/topic/ciii_category_images-wont-work-outside-the-loop?replies=3 (It is a little limited because of the file extension. I edited the code to show .gif). In this way I get what I looking for.

I don’t understand at all how taxonomies works (maybe because I never created new ones on my admin), but like I said, I tried with the code just like is referred in the plugin page but can’t get it working. The plugin is really useful (It would be nice if WordPress came with this utility by default). Maybe I’m doing something wrong…

Once again, thanks!

ps: sorry for my english.

Hello. I’m having same issue. I just changed a bit the code (for display archive images) in term-images.php from this:

<img src="<?php
	echo $term[ 'image' ]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $term[ 'name' ]; ?>" />

to this:

<img src="<?php
	echo $term[ 'thumbnail' ]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $term[ 'name' ]; ?>" />

Hope this help.

ps: sorry for my english.

You can do something like this:

<?php $getid = $posts[0]->post_author; if($getid == 1){ ?>
/* DISPLAY ADMIN NAME BUT NOT LINK TO AUTHOR PAGE */
Published by <?php the_author(); ?>
		<?php } else { ?>
        Published by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
        <?php } ?>

Or, if you don’t want to display name

<?php $getid = $posts[0]->post_author; if($getid == 1){ ?>
		<?php } else { ?>
        Published by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
        <?php } ?>

Note id == 1 its default admin ID.

Michael…you rocks man!!! Thank you a lot, really! I came from this topic http://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-latest-posts-by-all-authors and then I found this solution. I rewrite the code to show some extra info. Here is the code:

<?php
//list 6 latest contributors
$authors =  array();
$count = 0;
$args=array(
  'post_type' => 'post',
  'post_status' => 'publish',
  'posts_per_page' => -1,
  'caller_get_posts'=> 1
);
$my_query = null;
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
  echo 'Latest 6 contributors';
  while ($my_query->have_posts() && $count < 6) : $my_query->the_post();
    $author_id=$my_query->post->post_author;
    $user = new WP_User( $author_id );
    if ( !empty( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) && !in_array('administrator',$user->roles)) {
      if (!in_array($author_id,$authors)) { ?>
        <?php echo '<p>'; ?>
        <a href="<?php echo $user_link; ?>" title="<?php echo $user->display_name; ?>"><?php echo get_avatar( $user->ID, 80, 'http://www.naciondeaccion.com/v1/wp-content/themes/default/images/ndaAvatar.gif' ); ?></a>
		          <?php if($user->deporte) { ?>
          <?php echo $user->deporte; ?>
          <?php } ?>
		<?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
        <a href="<?php the_permalink();?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
        <?php echo '</p>'; ?>

		<?php $count++;
        $authors[]=$author_id;
      }
    }
  endwhile;
}
wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
?>

I limit to display no administrator users with !in_array(‘administrator’,$user->roles) but I can figure out how to display only editors and contributors. How can I do it?

Once again thanks!
