Hi @fredhead yup, understood. I just needed to confirm that you were using a custom query object for your template file. To give you a TL;DR, it is possible, but the solution is a bit hacky and probably not worth the effort if you’re already using a traditional WP_Query object.

If you have a look at the archive template for Twenty Twenty Two, you’ll see that it uses a core/query block, as well as a core/post-template block.

https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/browser/twentytwentytwo/1.1/templates/archive.html

The query block sets up the WP_Query object, and the post-template block is the one that handles rendering the data from the query, similar to how you would set up The Loop in a classic theme template.

At the moment, there is no way to pass the variables from the url to the query block in the template. However, what might be possible is to filter either the query block’s settings and change the query settings, or filter the post-template blocks settings and change the render_callback setting.

In order to do this, you’ll need to use the block_type_metadata_settings filter to get the $settings of the block, based on it’s name from the block $metadata

function my_filter_block_type_metadata( $settings, $metadata ) {
	if ( 'core/query' === $metadata['name'] ) {
		// do things for the query
	}
	if ( 'core/post-template' === $metadata['name'] ) {
		// do things for the post-template
	}
	return $settings;
}
add_filter( 'block_type_metadata_settings', 'my_filter_block_type_metadata', 10, 2 );

Then you should be able to either alter the query settings, or alter the post-template render_callback to your own callback. Currently the post-template render_callback function is in the wp-includes/blocks/post-template.php file and the render_block_core_post_template function.
Eventually I could see that the query block would be updated to be able to handle processing query vars from the URL, but it’s not currently available.

		
	

Ah, yes, my apologies.

Can you ask you to try something? Create a new blog post for the Wine Review: Sagrantino from Italy & Chile post, and change the slug to sagrantino-2, then use that link in the image, and see if that works.

Hi @sneedbreedley

There are typically two ways to add custom CSS to a theme, through a child theme, or via the Customizer.

Using a child theme is generally the recommended way, as you can add any theme customisations to the child theme, either for layout and styling, or custom functionality.

You can read more about how to create a child theme here https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/

Once you have created the child theme, you may need to set the custom padding for the three different places that padding is being applied in the parent theme.

@media only screen and (min-width: 85.375em)
.site-content>.wrapper, #featured-slider-section+.site-content>.wrapper {
    padding: 91px 30px;
}

@media only screen and (min-width: 64em)
.site-content>.wrapper {
    padding: 61px 30px;
}
.site-content>.wrapper {
    padding: 42px 30px;
}

Hi @avrec

I see from your support thread (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-conflict-362/) you are using the Tickera ticketing theme. Have you tried contact their support?

Alternatively, have you tried to use one of the default (Twenty*) themes with TranslatePress active, to see if the problem persists. It might be a conflict on the themes side.

Hi @winediplomats

Ok, this is helpful. First off I would point out that the ability to edit the Link URL and the rest of those fields is definitely something related to a plugin, and not the default functionality of WordPress. For example, this is what I see on one of my images on a clean WordPress install.

https://tinyurl.com/yxk876c9

However, your screenshot has given me some info to work with, specifically the URL of the page you want to link the image to, in this case: https://winediplomats.com/sagratino/.

When I try to visit that page in the browser, it shows me a Not Found message, so it looks like that page is not available under that slug sagratino on your WordPress site.

Are you able to verify that there is a page with that slug?

Hey @julian_wave

This is generally the right place to ask for support, and then we try and guide you from there.

Similar to your previous support question, are you able to share the code of the custom blocks you are creating? That will give us a better idea of what you are doing, and can make suggestions from there.

Hi @fredhead

Could I confirm with you, are you using a custom instance of WP_Query in your PHP template code to render the issues by month and year? So something like this to filter by post type and date:

$query = new WP_Query(
	array(
		'post_type' => 'issue',
		'date_query' => array(
			array(
				'after'    => array(
					'year'  => 2022,
					'month' => 4,
					'day'   => 1,
				),

				'before'    => array(
					'year'  => 2022,
					'month' => 4,
					'day'   => 31,
				),
				'inclusive' => true,
			),
		),
	)
);

Hi @mathse the code that I have shared with you is JavaScript code, not PHP. So for example what you can do is put that code in a script.js file in a plugin, and enqueue it in PHP using the enqueue_block_editor_assets hook in PHP

Because of this JavaScript requirement, you won’t be able to add this via an mu-plugin, as mu-plugins can only be single PHP files. You can read more about developing regular plugins here – https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/
