it looks like you have a featured image set and also have the image embedded in the post? Remove the image from the post content and just have the featured image set.

I sent the test….thanks for assist.

go to the posts in the dashboard and click on tags. This will show all your tags and the tag slug. It may show the id if you have installed a plugin to display ids.

from the doc, options tab:
tag
This allows for the selection of posts by tag (slug).
tag_id
This allows for the selection of posts by tag id.

if your tag is UpFront then the slug is probably upfront. The tag parameter requires the slug.

Looking at the doc, the tag uses the slug and not the tag name. You can look at the list of tags Posts -> Tags to get the slug value. Usually it is the tag in all lower case with blanks replaced by -.

Please let me know if using the slug works for you.

per the documentation for WP_QUERY:

order (string | array) - Designates the ascending or descending order of
the 'orderby' parameter. Defaults to 'DESC'. An array can be
 used for multiple order/orderby sets.
        'ASC' - ascending order from lowest to highest values (1, 2, 3; a, b, c).
        'DESC' - descending order from highest to lowest values (3, 2, 1; c, b, a).

order="DESC" is the option

In the documentation, under options, first paragraph there is a link to the wp_query options. As stated in the documentation, the wp_query options are supported if the option is not an array.

According to the wp_query doc, pass the option p=nn.

At this time the plugin does not support an array of post ids as in the post_in option.

Hope that helps

if you check the documentation under the options tab, there is an option field-classes. You can apply custom classes by using this option:

field_classes=”post_thumbnail=my-custom-class-name”

This will replace the default tpg-thumbnail-class with my-custom-class-name

Most of the layout problems can be solved by customizing the css. If you look at the html code generated by the plugin, you will see the posts are assigned classes beginning with tpg. Hopefully, you will be able to customize each component to get the look you want.

Pagination is a bit complex and very dependent on the theme. One theme 2013 has been reported as not working with the plugin. You may need to remove the fp_pagination or add the pagination class from your theme.

Hi Tony:

Unfortunately, I have not had time to research this issue and see where the problem resides. It could be a filter has been invoked that the plugin does not recognize. If you find a solution to the issue before I have a chance to research it, please post it back on the support forum.

Go to the bottom of the settings tab for instructions to upgrade the plugin.

In addition, plugin examples can be found at https://www.tpginc.net/blog/wordpress-plugins/plugin-tpg_get_posts/tpg-get-posts-documentation/.

To create a byline that is a combination of byline and metadata, you will need to write a custom routine to be hooked in after post byline. There is documentation on custom functions under the cf option and some sample code in the plugin.

The code is wrapped in <pre></pre> tags. I am guessing you copied the short-code from an example. When you do that the <pre> tags get included. Remove the tag.

Great….thanks for the information and update to the solution.

There is nothing that immediately comes to mind, but it has been a couple of years since I looked at Postie. Let’s see if we can get some more details.

Does the post show on a blog page with a readme or does it just show the entire post?

Does Postie have an option for excerpts that might be conflicting with the get-posts plugin?

I would like to see the html generated by the plugin vs what is shown on the blog for the same post. Is there a site where I can view the output showing these symptoms?

you can send the website to webmaster – tpginc.net if you do not want to post the site on the support page. But lets keep most information here so others with the same problem can reference this. Thanks
