 * I’m interested in this too. I’m trying to add mp4 videos to a custom post type–
   I suspect the process for doing this is similar for pages and custom types. Any
   suggestions welcome!

 * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-query-posts-and-pages/#post-1462309)
 * I’m looking for a way to use query_posts to pull pages and posts. Specifically,
   I’m trying to get a sllider to display 3 specific pages as well as the most recent
   post in a particular category, but can’t figure out how to modify query_post 
   to do that.
 * Here’s the original code calling the three pages:
 *     ```
       query_posts(array('post_type' => 'page',
       						'orderby' => 'menu_order',
       						'order' => 'ASC',
       						'post__in' => get_option('simplepress_feat_pages'),
       						'showposts' => 3));
       ```
   
 * I tried
 *     ```
       query_posts(array('post_type' => 'page',
       						'orderby' => 'menu_order',
       						'order' => 'ASC',
       						'post__in' => get_option('simplepress_feat_pages'),
       						'showposts' => 3),
       						array(
       						'post-type' => 'post',
       						'cat' => 4,
       						'order' => 'ASC',
       						'showposts' => 1));
       ```
   
 * but that didn’t quite cut it. Any ideas?

 * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-duplicate-post-how-to-allow-authors-to-duplicate-posts/#post-1387195)
 * i took a peek in here and tried changing some of the values – specifically here:
 *     ```
       add_option(
       		DUPLICATE_POST_VIEW_USER_LEVEL_OPTION,
       			'2',
       			'Default user level to copy posts' );
       		add_option(
       		DUPLICATE_POST_CREATE_USER_LEVEL_OPTION,
       			'5',
       			'Default user level to create the templates' );
       		add_option(
       		DUPLICATE_POST_ADMIN_USER_LEVEL_OPTION,
       			'8',
       ```
   
 * but i didn’t hit on any changes to the numerical values there that made authors
   capable of posting. can a php neophyte get a little help with that? The plugin
   has been extremely helpful for admins, but now we’ve realized our authors need
   it too! thanks!

 * I thought i had it there for a minute:
 * I changed the theme to the Ukraine option for a minute – which cautioned me that
   it was setting back to the theme default. Yay! but when I then switched back 
   to the theme option I wanted to use, I couldn’t get rid of the lego default image
   using the customization interface.
 * I eventually tweaked the default config.php for that theme, and got it all to
   work, but am curious as to why I couldn’t just reset all my images in the customization
   menu…
 * Any thoughts on what might be happening?

 * I’m having a similar issue – I can upload images using the media manager in WP,
   and can, presumably, insert them into a post. However, they do not appear when
   uploaded. You can see that the files are there via FTP, but when visiting the
   URL where they live, a “page not found” error. e.g.:
 * [http://www.desertsailor.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/gwf-fl4.jpg](http://www.desertsailor.info/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/gwf-fl4.jpg)
 * gives “page not found” though peeking via ftp, you see this image file lives 
   exactly right there. the page on which that image appears shows the image as 
   a broken link.
 * the ISP folks say it’s a problem with .htaccess, which currently reads thusly:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * on my way to disabling all plugins… but any other suggestions?

 * eee! I’ll second this suggestion. We’re selling photos – first round of options
   are image sizes – but also need finish and full bleed/border options. I’ll certainly
   be following this thread in hopes of an elegant solution!
 * I’ve been tinkering with most of the shopping card plugins the past week or two
   and am relieved to find one that is 1) soo well done and 2) well-supported.
 * excellent work!

 * Hey Ali –
 * i’m using the same setup you’ve got. I wish I could tell you what the magic secret
   was, but i don’t know! the thing seems to be largely a mystery.
 * I installed and activated the shopping cart and the buy now plugins. As I mentioned
   above, it wasn’t working for a bit, but then i realized that i needed to use 
   the nextgen shortcodes themselves instead of inserting from the WP media manager.
   so long as my NGgallery items have a number in the price field, they show up.
 * that said, turns out this plugin was more than i needed – so I went with the 
   [quickshop plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quick-shop/) instead.
 * But I’m assuming you were able to activate both plugins… yes? Maybe it’s a conflict
   with another plugin in your setup? Have you tried deactivating everything but
   ecommerce, buy now, and next gen to see if you can get it working then?

 * nazmul – I’ve figured out how to get the buy now buttons working. at first i 
   was using the WP media manager to insert the images from the next gen galleries
   at first and when i did that, no buy now button. however, if i use the nextgen
   shortcodes directly (e.g. [singlepic=52] or [gallery=12] it seems to work fine.
 * also, don’t add currency to the price fields (e.g. no $ signs or what have you)
   when you edit the price in the gallery.
 * I’m interested to know, though, if anyone has figured out how to make the Buy
   Now feature into a “add to cart” feature instead. I’ve been looking around a 
   bit and haven’t found anything yet. Anyone?

   too. E.g. somebody searches for “noodles” and the results show all posts in category“
   soups”, then all posts in categories “pasta dishes” etc… anyone?

 * check this thread:
    [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/193453?replies=9](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/193453?replies=9)
 * the [widget reset plugin](http://justintadlock.com/downloads/widgets-reset.zip)
   linked there fixed my similar snag. make sure you grab all the text etc from 
   text widgets and any other settings first, though. i didn’t encounter the error
   that rparker points out in the thread, so can’t speak to that.
