The add_action needs to be inserted into your theme’s functions.php file. I can’t guarantee that it’ll fix your issue, but it’s the only thing I can think to suggest at this point.

Hi,

Do you want to show posts that are assigned the term “regions”, or do you want to show terms whose parent is “regions”?

For posts which are assigned the term “regions” you want:

[a-z-listing display="posts" post-type="post" taxonomy="category" terms="regions"]

For terms whose parent term is “regions” you want:

[a-z-listing display="terms" taxonomy="category" parent-term="regions"]

If the listing isn’t showing any results for the relevant shortcode, double check that your term/parent-term has the “slug” of “regions”. If you use the first of the shortcodes above, you should also double-check that there are posts assigned to “regions”.

You might also be able to show posts which have a term nested underneath the “regions” category with:

[a-z-listing display="posts" post-type="post" taxonomy="category" parent-term="regions"]

However, I’m not certain that last option works.

Hi,

Yes this is possible. You will need to copy the template file from wp-content/plugins/a-z-listing/templates/a-z-listing.php into your theme (or child theme) at wp-content/themes/your-theme/a-z-listing.php.

Once you have a copy of the template you must remove the content of lines 24-28:

<div id="letters">
	<div class="az-letters">
		<?php $a_z_query->the_letters(); ?>
	</div>
</div>

…And lines 63-57:

<div class="back-to-top">
	<a href="#letters">
		<?php _e( 'Back to top', 'a-z-listing' ); ?>
	</a>
</div>

Hi,

You can adjust the size of the links with CSS like:

div.letter-section > ul.az-columns > li {
    font-size: 1.2em;
}

Standard CSS units can be used like em, rem, px, etc.

I’m at a loss to explain why it’s working fine when logged-in but failing for anonymous users. The only reason I can think of is your site is serving different code to anonymous/not-logged-in users.

Often such discrepancies are cache-related but it seems we’ve accounted for that with ?ao_noptimize=1 testing. It doesn’t look like the page is cached by cloudflare so that isn’t serving an old copy. There might be server-level caches that I’m unable to identify, but it would seem that caches are not the problem here.

I really don’t know what else to suggest beyond adding the following code to your theme’s functions.php to forcibly load the stylesheet on every request:

add_action( 'init', 'a_z_listing_force_enable_styles' );

The function a_z_listing_force_enable_styles is provided by the plugin, so it should be wired up correctly with that single line.

Hi,

You can use the content of the fields when displaying the items, but only the title is considered when sorting the items into alphabetical order. You cannot currently use the values in a/some field(s) as the items in an A-Z listing. Only Posts and Terms are currently supported.

You can, however, use the filter a_z_listing_pre_index_item_title to change what the plugin sees as the title of a post based on the custom fields present:

add_filter( 'a_z_listing_pre_index_item_title', 'override_a_z_titles', 10, 3 );
function override_a_z_titles( $title, $item, $type ) {
    if ( $type !== 'posts' ) {
        return $title;
    }
    $new_title = get_field( 'field_name', $item->ID, false );
    return $new_title;
}

Hi,

I’m not sure what you’re asking for, here. The terms parameter is not exposed anywhere accessible outside of the plugin itself, so unfortunately I think what you’re asking for isn’t currently possible.
