Add image section to my website.

  • Here I go again with wuestions lol.

    So this was one of thsoe things that I thought would be pretty damn easy to do. but apparently not.

    https://www.LetsKillSomeTime.com

    On the top of the main page, under the header I want to add text/box that says “Image Section” , That I know how to do, Just add a menu.

    But when Someone click on that, I want them to be taken to a page which looks like that main page with the same ammounts of posts per page etc but this time its only images. So The main pages has 8 new videos per day. And when you click on “images section” you go to a page with 8 new images per day.

    How do I do this? I have tried, and looked around but no luck. I thought it was going to be super easy. But no, and I have no idea why.

    Take care

    so I copy that exactly and change the “23” to “275” which apparently was the photo category id..

    And then open index.php in the template folder that Im using through ftp and add that below everything else?

    Yes

    No! It must come before the start of the main Loop in that template file.

    you left a noob hangi’n ??

    Yes but looking at that code, there’s already a custom query being created higher up that is specifically querying custom post types.

    And what does that mean? I cant add the line I have to to make the image section work?

    Right now, yes. That template file (and theme) would need some careful examination before implementing any additional custom queries.

    alright =(. WordPress should add a “post directly into category” option.
    The fact that its such a pain in the ass (at least for beginners I assume) to just add a new section with posts going there right away is random as hell imo. Should just be a normal option. Do you think wordpress would liten to someoe sending them “tips” lol.
