Thank you! That worked! Although, I think I must have done something wrong with my older/next post part. I read that you had to edit that part too?

This is what I have now;

<div class="next_prev left"><?php printf ( '<div>%s</div>', get_previous_posts_link ( 'Previous Page &raquo;', $my_query->max_num_pages ) ); ?></div>
<div class="next_prev right"><?php printf ( '<div>%s</div>', get_next_posts_link ('Next Page &raquo;', $my_query->max_num_pages ) ); ?></div>

Which gives me the next link for ‘…./page/2/’ which I guess is correct, actually except that it gives me a 404 error so that it might not be correct for my site. So again, here, I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.

The original (index) php was;

<div class="next_prev left"><?php previous_posts_link(__('&laquo; Previous Page', 'designcrumbs')); ?></div>
<div class="next_prev right"><?php next_posts_link(__('Next Page &raquo;', 'designcrumbs')); ?></div>

Which came with the theme…

Hmm, just tried that and they are still returning arrays. I had them with trues originally and took them out to see if that fixed the problem. They worked before I installed the plugin, returned the correct info I mean, so I think it has to do with the plugin which is why I’m asking you — in case you’re wondering. Just not sure if there is some kind of conflict.

I figured it out — it was a conflicting plugin that I was using to try to get rid of the post type slug.

But I do have a problem.

I can’t seem to get the post type info to show up. Usually I am able to use the “get_post_meta” query to pull up info in my post templates from custom mets boxes, however, from the custom post types I created with the plugin, the info isn’t showing up. It’s just returning blank/empty.

It’s only returning the post id, but not the actual info (the release_month, release_day, release_year, all of which has actually been entered.

Also, when I edit a taxonomy, there is nothing under Assign a Post Type (like none of the custom post types I created) to choose from.

Oh, I think that means that it’s only for the default ones, not custom ones? Where do we define which custom ones are associated with which post types, or is there a place for that?

I’m putting the code in my page itself. Is the widget code not allowed to do that?

I am using Sub Categories Widget.

There were some things in the trash but nothing with that same title. I did try deleting the trash and trying again (just in case) and that did not work. I’m really stumped ??

Oh okay, so it has to be random then… I only ask because right now, I have it set as random, but I only have 1 ad in the group so most of the time, no ad shows up, I guess because I don’t have enough ads in the group?

Never mind, I am a moron, has nothing to do with the plugin or WordPress. I have an ad blocker on, DUH me! LOL. As soon as I turned it off for that page it all worked, including the back end ??

I know this sounds stupid, but I’m not overly familiar with everything to do with WP plugins. How do I tell what plugins would be considered “Custom Post Type”?

Oh, in case it matters, this is what it shows in my source code.

<li id="text-2" class="widget widget_text">
<h2 class="widgettitle">Book Promotion</h2>
<div class="textwidget">
<div>
<div class="dfad dfad_pos_1 dfad_first" id="_ad_600">
<img src="https://www.happy-ever-after.org/wordpress/wp-content/themes/HappyEverAfter/images/ads/covers/test2.png" width="275" height="410" class="aligncenter" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</li>

Then, when I clear my cache, and refresh I can see the block for a second where the ad is supposed to be but then it disappears so I’m not sure what’s going on ??

Yes, I do have it checked/enabled. That’s why I believe when I look at the source code I can see the info of what should be showing but isn’t ??

Oh, never mind, I see an option I needed to have selected first (the “use sale prices” option). You might want to add that into the wiki, just in case someone else has the same issue I did ??
