I used the following:

if(function_exists('genarate_ajax_pagination')) {
    genarate_ajax_pagination('Load More', 'blue', "content", array('post_type' => 'post'));
}

and still get the same results, the button shows up, I click it, the little spinning circle appears beside the button, then it just adds a line above my button with no new posts.
I am using this in the custom community buddypress theme in the default index.php file, with no custom post query.

Here is the site and you will see the 3 filters on the right each one has a sort number and other than the homepage (which should default to $sort = 1) and these 3 menu items, any other page should load with the default query.

Still not working! I have added this in each filter

if(is_front_page() && empty($sort)) {
filter code executed;
}

and these filters are at the bottom of my functions.php file. I also added this code to the top of my index.php file:

global $sort;
$sort = 1;

so that on the first page request for the homepage the initial filter is fired. Also above the add_filter’s in my functions.php
I have:

if(isset($_GET['sort'])){
$sort = $_GET['sort'];
}

This should fire the filter if its the homepage or if the sort variable is populated in the $_GET array, otherwise it would be a normal page and the default query should run. When I click on posts that aren’t in my custom fitlers, I get a page not found message and in the wp-admin dashboard for all posts, only posts from the filters are returned which is not correct. I am so desperate for help! Please dont get frustrated with me, I just don’t know if I am adding the code in the right files.

I have declared the global $sort inside my filters and check them inside the filters. How can I set it only if it is the homepage? any other page it can be empty and then the filters wont fire.

I have set a global variable in the functions.php like so:

global $sort;

if (! isset($_GET['sort']) && empty($sort)) {
$sort = 1;
}

if (isset($_GET['sort'])) {
$sort = $_GET['sort'];
}

Then in the first line of my sidebar.php I set $sort = 0 so that the sort filters are not added if the sort is equal to 0. I have another code block that handles this in functions.php that looks like:

if ($sort == 1 || $sort == 2){
  add_filter('posts_join', 'votes_join');
  add_filter('posts_where', 'votes_where');
  add_filter('posts_orderby', 'votes_orderby');
}
if ($sort == 0) {
remove_filter('posts_join');
remove_filter('posts_where');
remove_filter('posts_orderby');
}

Am I missing something? still doesn’t seem to work cause certain posts aren’t showing up in my admin menu, only those returned by by the filters.

I have used add_filter to customize the query in the functions.php within the theme folder. This gives me the custom query but I can’t seem to get functions like, remove_filter or wp_reset_query to work in the index.php. Also, I have tried wrapping the add_filter function with if(is_home) or if(is_front_page) so that only this custom query is used on the front page but it fails to give me the results I want as well. Where could I place this code so that it only applies my filter on the homepage?

I have a problem with the filters I have applied interfering with other pages not being found and also when logged in to the admin panel viewing all posts only gives me the posts that the custom query I have set up returns. How can I only apply the filters for the custom query for the homepage and homepage only and not all other areas of the site?

I ended up placing the code in the functions.php file in the theme folder I am using. Now my problem is that the search filters are causing other pages to not show up. I want to somehow set a flag if it is the home page so that the filters are added (if(is_home()) do->this) but the is_home and is_front_page functions don’t seem to be working in that functions.php file. I would like a get variable to be populated when the homepage is loaded and if it is set then I know to add the filters. Where can I put code to set a get variable on home page load?
