Tags not showing

Did you put the template tag in The Loop (before endwhile;) ?

The code I’m using is as follows (minus my template-specific styles and html):

<?php /*$posts = get_posts(‘numberposts=10’);*/ ?>

<?php foreach ($posts as $post) : ?>

<?php setup_postdata ($post); ?>

<?php if (get_option (‘photon_index_post_length’) == “full”): ?>

<?php the_content(‘Continue Reading’,’FALSE’,”); ?>

<p class=”tags”><?php the_tags(‘Tags: ‘, ‘, ‘, ”); ?></p>

<?php else: ?>

<?php the_content (); ?>

</div>

<?php endif; ?>

WP Version 2.7, Photon Theme, 8 Plugins (including show/hide w/ javascript)

Why don’t you use query_posts() and a standard loop instead? That might fix the problem.

I don’t even know what any of that means. What I’m using is either native to the Photon theme, or may have to do with the show/hide plugin I’m using.

What line of code would I replace? And with what?

<?php
query_posts('showposts=10');
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
  if ( "full" == get_option('photon_index_post_length') ) {
    the_content('Continue Reading','FALSE','');
    the_tags('<p class="tags">Tags: ', ', ', '</p>');
  } else {
    the_content('');
  }
endwhile;
?>

(not tested)

First, let me say thanks scribu for your individual attention on this matter. I really appreciate it.

So I tried that code, but it doesn’t work. However, I think it’s because it’s conflicting with other pieces of my code that I didn’t write above. This time I’ll just put the whole main index template, including the styles.

I think your code may work, but it just has to be broken up – and I don’t know enough about PHP syntax to do it.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div id="wrapper">

<?php /*$posts = get_posts('numberposts=10');*/ ?>

        <div id="posts" class="excerpts">

                <ul>

                <?php foreach ($posts as $post) : ?>

                        <?php setup_postdata ($post); ?>
<div class="contentbox">

<div id="post-meta">
	<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
<div class="timedate"><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?></div>
<div class="postdata">

<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
</div>

</div>

                        <?php if (get_option ('photon_index_post_length') == "full"): ?>

                <?php the_content('Continue Reading','FALSE',''); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Nope, that doesn’t work either.

I had to correct one line.

<h1><a>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

to:

<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

Still didn’t make the tags appear. And now, actually, the tags aren’t showing on my single posts, either. Argh.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I’m having the same issue…calling the tags works in the single post, but not on my homepage.

I am so confused…

I found the answer (that works for me) here.
