[Twenty Ten] Post Formats

  • Hi all,

    I have two questions regarding post formats, Twenty Ten and child themes that “Google” could not answer.

    1. How can I add more post formats to a child theme?
      I’m using a child theme of Twenty Ten on my website. Unfortunately, Twenty Ten 1.2 just supports the post formats “asides” and “gallery” at the moment. I would like to add the post formats “image” and “quote”. I think I have to add the following code to the functions.php of my child theme:
      add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'aside', 'gallery', 'image', 'quote' ) );
      But how do I change the other template files?
    2. Is it possible to link to all post with a certain post format?
      Right now, I’m linking to the category “Gallery” in my nav menu. Now, I would like to delete the category “Gallery” and categorize the gallery posts with “Travel”, “Nature”, etc. and mark them with the post format “gallery”. Then, I would like to change the link in the nav menu from the category “Gallery” to the post format “gallery”? Is that possible?

    Thanks in advance for any hint or support.

  • Just quick hint about childtheme/functions.php anything you place in here will overwrite parenttheme/functions.php this is of course if there are no hooks installed, in that case you will need to unregister in child theme functions.php.

    Instead of going step by step, take a look at this site https://lisasabin-wilson.com/wordpress-3-1-post-formats-reference perfect explanation is right there.

    Also an example:

    add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup' );
function my_child_theme_setup() {
    // We are providing our own filter for excerpt_length (or using the unfiltered value)
     remove_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'twentyten_excerpt_length' );
    ...
 }

    Cheers,
    Emil
