$wp_query is a global variable that will hold the information for the current loop. You should just be able to use $wp_query->found_posts anywhere on that page to get your results. If it’s not working, try globalizing $wp_query (global $wp_query at the top of the page).

Not that I know of… and the function you are using is a custom function anyway, not a WordPress default function. Here’s what I would do… Since you already know the category ID (it’s the page you’re on anyway category-3.php) I would tack it onto the URL:

foreach ($tags as $tag) {
$content .= "<a href=\"$tag->tag_link\?cat=3">$tag->tag_name</a>";
}

Then on the tags.php page, or the archive.php page, whichever you are using, use my method above and add:

global $query_string;
query_posts( $query_string . '&cat=' . $_GET['cat'] );

to the top of the page. See if that works.

I would try using the PHP mail() function instead of SMTP… see if that change helps. PHP mail() should use those fields correctly. This is found under the advanced email options area.

In your header.php file is the code pumping out the logo. I don’t know what theme you are using, but if you are unfamiliar with how to edit the template files, you should read:

And since the logo is mostly text (meaning that the words hispanicalliance.com in the logo are text, not an image) except for that downward triangle with an H in it, it should translate with the rest of the site. Though if you are using a plugin to do it, you might want to read the FAQs and documentation of the plugin to see what they suggest. __( ) is WordPress’ function for translation, so this should not be an issue.

The problem here is that you are using get_category_tags with an argument to limit the tags to those assigned to the currently viewed category. However, when you get to the tags page (tag.php or archive.php) you are not using a query to get the category associated with the tag clicked from the previous click! (confusing, I know)

What you need to do, is on your category-3.php page, where you are shooting out the tag links, you’ll want to pass the category ID along with it somehow… either in the URL or by POST. In either case, on your tag.php or archive.php (whichever you are using) modify the loop following these instructions:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts

Something like:

global $query_string;
query_posts( $query_string . '&category=[category_number_from_URL_or_POST]' );

Of course, replace [category_number_from_URL_or_POST] with whatever method you pass the category along. You can also use an array if you have more than one category you wish to include.

I believe you’ll want to wrap the text in this function: __() found here:

Maybe something like this, taken from your website’s code:

<div id="logo"><h1><a href="/" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','Header - Expiry - Lander', 'logo-click', 'hispanicalliance.com']);"><?php echo __( 'hispanicalliance.com' ); ?></a></h1></div>
