Hi Miles,

Thank you kindly for your response and for looking into this issue.

I can confirm that the boxes were unticked, although interestingly upon saving, it doesn’t appear to have the issue anymore, so that’s some improvement, thank you.

The issue now appears to be more UX/block list bug – I’ve found that neither the QI Blocks nor the Bootstrap blocks are not visible in the side panel (Qi Blocks were there previously) – any ideas, please?

Hi,

Sorry I meant to use a “-” instead of an “_”… So if I was to go the category route…

How would I show only the current categories posts?

e.g. posts of /category/portfolio/

I have a “Parent Category” which works as /category/portfolio/

And the category is named category-portfolio.php.

All I have inside is:

<?php query_posts('showposts=25'); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li data-type="<?php $category = get_the_category(); echo $category[0]->cat_ID; ?>"></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php
$args=array(
  'orderby' => 'name',
  'order' => 'ASC'
  );
 $categories=  get_categories('child_of='.get_query_var('cat'));
  foreach($categories as $category) {
    echo '<p>Category: <a href="' . get_category_link( $category->term_id ) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $category->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $category->name.'</a> </p> ';
    echo '<p> Description:'. $category->description . '</p>';
    echo '<p> Post Count: '. $category->count . '</p>';  }
?>

And this produces:

Category: Photography
Description:Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Post Count: 1

Category: Portfolio
Description:Portfolio description would go here
Post Count: 0

Category: Illustration
Description:Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Post Count: 1

Why is portfolio even showing!!?

OK, to be more specfic, I chnaged the first line of the example, to what you said e.g.

<?php
  $categories=  get_categories('child_of='.get_query_var('cat'));
  foreach ($categories as $category) {

But it’s still pulling the title of the “Parent” e.g. “Portfolio”, within the results any ideas? – Whcih it shouldn’t if I want it to show only ones with posts within it. (excluding the parent)

Hi,

I don’t know what you mean by “Single posts don’t have the category in the url.” – Of course they do, otherwise would just be mysite.com/single-post/… which is weird.

They have a category or sub category in the url like mysite.com/cat/subcat/single-post/

Or have i missed something…

Same thing again, thanks for repsonding, though perhaps I havn’t explained my self properly.

/Portfolio/ – will be an index of sub categories

/portfolio/photogrpahy – will be an index of all photography items
/portfolio/$anycategory(e.g.photography/single-post-item/ – Will be an individual post item from a subcategory e.g. (A phto with all the text)

Hope that clears it up.

So essentially I need:
1. – One template for /portfolio/
2. – One template for the sub category /portfolio/photography/
3. – One for the individual post item.

Note: the subcategory page e.g. /photography/ -will be dynamic, so I don’t want to have to hard code that part, so I can add any category e.g. illustration/art/design etc etc without having to create a new template each time.

[No bumping, thank you – especially after less than 20 minutes! If it’s that urgent, hire someone.]
