* I created a page template using the taxonomy.php code but it doesn’t work because i’m guessing wordpress is using the archive.php instead through the template hierarchy? * Hope i explained ok and thanks for any help * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Taxonomy archive](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/taxonomy-archive/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/taxonomy-archive/#post-2353612) * ok i found out how to show all custom taxonomies on a page through * ``` have_posts() ) : $custom_query->the_post(); ?> ``` * now how do i show all posts tagged with one custom taxonomy?

* He has made a nice site with the tutorial, similar to what i want but mine will have commenting functionality. * Daniel * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233993) * Will defo have a look at that book, thanks. * I’ve just tried out the code, it half works, each social comes up like this( using facebook as an example: * mysite/wp-content/themes/mythemeFacebook profile * on the webpage it shows that url then the facebook link right on the end, it links to the correct url. * All that is wrong is that the icon doesn’t show and my theme location url shows. If it matters i’m creating a child theme using bones. * Daniel * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233985) * As i said i don’t know much about php, but it looks like it’s doing the same thing as my code except alot better, the second part of your code will show each profile if it exists, just with one bit of code, instead of my code which was to show each profile with the same code repeated for each profile name which would be alot of code. * What i was wondering was does it stil use the custom fields, but now after reading through it again i realise that the first bit of your code is using the custom fields. I hope i’ve understood it properly?? * I haven’t been able to try your code out yet, but i will be back at my own computer tomorrowand will let you know how it goes. * Thanks Daniel * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233981) * Thanks wlindley for the help, * Can you explain to me how i would use this code? Is it simply just replacing my php with the code you reccomended or is there more i need to do to make it work? * Daniel * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233970) * Heres the cap on imageshack [http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9055/socialside.jpg](http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9055/socialside.jpg) * I input the custom fields and the icon for that social profile shows * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233968) * Hi wlindley * > You could setup an array of the various website names and use a loop. * Could you go a bit more indepth on this, i don’t really how this would be done. * > Also, letting folks put any arbitrary URL which will look like an official > link, is probably a Bad Idea. * The way i’m doing it is the ‘user’ will fill out a form with all the necessary info and i will write it in manually, i have an image of how my post displays at the moment but i don’t know how to upload it here lol * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Using custom fields to display social icons](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-custom-fields-to-display-social-icons/#post-2233956) * Anybody? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Listing Categories](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/listing-categories-2-2/) * Thread Starter [danielmck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielmck/) * (@danielmck) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/listing-categories-2-2/#post-2222859) * Never mind i figured it out.
