Brilliant! Worked exactly as I hoped ??

Ty.

Well, that’s not really achievable as I need the functionality of wp_get_archives() in order to display a option box populated with the months/year of all my posts and how many posts are in each of these items.

As far as I’m aware, this isn’t achievable with a custom query.

Ah, get_the_time() is the function I was looking for ??

if(get_the_time('F') == $filter['month'] && get_the_time('Y') == $filter['year']) {
	// My code here
}

Worked great.

Ty.

Ah thanks for that:

<?php get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single); ?>

…will do the job.

Yeah, worked great.

<div id="post-nav">
	<p class="previous_post">
		<?php if(get_adjacent_post(true, '', true)) { ?>
			<b>Previous: </b> <?php previous_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?>
		<?php } ?>
	</p>
	<p class="next_post">
		<?php if(get_adjacent_post(true, '', false)) { ?>
			<b> :Next</b> <?php next_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?>
		<?php } ?>
	</p>
</div>

Cheers.

Works like a charm ??

Thanks so much for your help/patience, appreciate it.

All the best.

Oops. Yeah, I forgot to update the original code.

I’ve removed the echo 'List of Posts in '.$taxonomy .' '.$term->name; ?> line and also change line 'include'=> '3,4,11', to 'include'=> '3', to only return the posts in the ‘blog’ category.

So, I’m aiming in having the output be:

<li>
post 1 in the category 'blog'
post 2 in the category 'blog'
</li>
<li>
post 3 in the category 'blog'
post 4 in the category 'blog'
</li>
<li>
post 5 in the category 'blog'
post 6 in the category 'blog'
</li>

But it’s not happening. I’m guessing it’s because the ‘posts_per_page’ is set to 2, but removing that will just display all the posts in one <li> element right? And I want to ‘split’ the posts and have two of the posts in each element (like the output above).

Sorry for the confusion, my bad.

Yeah, as I first thought, because I’ve moved the <li> tags outside the while loop, they are not getting duplicated (there is only ever one).

This is where I was running into difficulty in the beginning. The <li> needs to be inside the while loop in order to get replicated, but the issue is displaying the ‘post_per_page‘ in each <li>.

Oh right.

I have set the ‘posts_per_page‘ to 2 to test this and after trying what you said, only the first two posts are showing in each <li> element for some reason. The other posts in the category are not getting displayed (there are other posts in the category). https://www.nickythorne.com/pages/blog/

I’ve pastebin’d the code: https://pastebin.com/j38kzsq1

Thanks for your help.

Not quite.

Lets say I want to display 15 posts altogether, then the ‘posts_per_page’ would be 15.

Below is the functionality I’m looking for

This would mean that i’d have 3 slides or <li> elements with 5 posts in each (making up the 15 altogether).

I need the existing code to be there as I only want to select the posts from certain categories.

Ok, below is a bit more code.

Basically, I have a ‘slider’ system which uses jQuery. And each <li> item is each ‘slide’ so to speak.

If you go to nickythorne.com you’ll see what I mean by ‘slider’. I want to list a number of posts on each slide. This is where the scope of my knowledge with WordPress ends ??

See the commented bit.

<div id="slider">
	<ul>

		<?php
			$taxonomy = 'category';
			$param_type = 'category__in';
			$term_args=array(
				'include'=> '3,4,11',
				'orderby' => 'name',
				'order' => 'ASC'
			);
			$terms = get_terms($taxonomy,$term_args);
			if ($terms) {
				foreach( $terms as $term ) {
					$args=array(
						"$param_type" => array($term->term_id),
						'post_type' => 'post',
						'post_status' => 'publish',
						'posts_per_page' => 2,
						'caller_get_posts'=> 1
					);
					$my_query = null;
					$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
					if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
						echo 'List of Posts in '.$taxonomy .' '.$term->name;
						while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>

							<li>

								<div class="post-details">

									<!-- It's here where i want the code which will display 5 posts
										 So as it's a while loop, the <li> element will contain 5 posts in each slide -->

								</div>

							</li>

					    <?php
						endwhile;

						}
				}
			}

			wp_reset_query();?>

	</ul>
</div>

Yeah, I want to be able to separate the posts returned into different <li> elements.

How is this achievable?

Thanks again.

Thanks Michael. Appreciate it.

I want to keep all my posts/data. Just replace the core WordPress files. If i just use the same database details, will WordPress overwrite my existing tables, causing my data to be deleted (which I don’t want)?

Hope this is clearer.

But will it overwrite the existing tables?
