Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Featured Posts / Latest Headlines now showing (Offset)

Thanks, that's cool.
So now I'll somehow eliminate the News Thing on the bottom and it'll be perfect

Except pagination only works for the news section and not for the featured section.

Tip: hide featured articles and use the Latest Headlines for that.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Featured Posts / Latest Headlines now showing (Offset)

Hi Guys,

Here's my scenario: Feat slide show (Not showing), Feat post (Feat category) and latest news (All categories).

I read everything but couldnt find a solution for the feat category posts to not show in the latest news.

In the home.php I tried to change this:

$news_offset = 0;
if ($slideshow_cat == $news_cat) {
    $news_offset += $slideshow_count;
}
if ($featured_cat == $news_cat) {
    $news_offset += $featured_count;
}
$news_query_args['offset'] = $news_offset;

to this:

$news_offset = 0;
if ($slideshow_cat == $news_cat) {
    $news_offset += $slideshow_count;
}
if ($featured_cat != $news_cat) {
    $news_offset += $featured_count;
}
$news_query_args['offset'] = $news_offset;

As I could see that if they are the same cat they work, so I changed the "==" to "!=". But it doesnt work, some random categories post wont show in the Latest News and the Feat category post still shows.

Anyone has a workaround?

Thanks!

Rename the attached file to home.php and replace it with the one in the theme root directory.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Featured Posts / Latest Headlines now showing (Offset)

Just to be more clear:

Feat post

I don't want to see the 3 posts in Featured Feeds, in the Wubber Latest Feeds section again.

Anyone knows how it is possible?

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Featured Posts / Latest Headlines now showing (Offset)

Well, this doesn't work for 1.5.0.1. And there's no need to use it in 1.5.0.1 either since offset is OFF by default.

If the offset is off, why do I not see any posts in Featured #1, Featured #2, and New posts on my Home page?

Did you check this box (Hide duplicate posts) in the theme options? If yes, uncheck it.

Not sure what to do!

I was really hoping to launch my new website but the featured posts and latest headlines section seems to be doing its own thing.. I have read this thread but I'm not sure what to do.

Both the featured posts and latest headlines are the same. I have 4 posts so far. What I don't understand is that I have selected a category in the "latest headlines" section, but it is showing a post not even in that category.. I don't get it. Then when I change categories to try to fix things, when I am on one browser trying to reload the website to see the changes I made, sometimes the latest headlines section doesn't show anything at all. But when I reload it on another computer it shows duplicates again. It seems my only choice is duplicates or nothing in the latest headlines section.

I have Arras Theme 1.4.3.1 by Melvin Lee

Wordpress 3.0.1

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Featured Posts / Latest Headlines now showing (Offset)

OK, I have a twist on this.... and bare with me because I'm posting the pics because it's hard to imagine.

I'm running Arras 1.5.0.1
Have the Hide duplicate posts enabled
Have a total of 11 posts
     {5 sticky in slideshow, 1 private, 5 normal posts }

Now I have NO TITLE defined in the News Posts and setup as 4 in the Featured/4 in the News

The 5 sticky show in the slideshow fine.... {it's defined for 5}
The 4 in the featured posts fine
2 in the News section...As it's showing a link to the private but that's fine, and ONLY the 2 since that's now everything
...
And I have a link to Older Posts   (or Page 2 if the PageNavi is enabled, but it was there before I installed it)
...
in short.... What the heck ?
...
Page 2 is showing one of the stickied posts already shown in the slideshow.

I included all three screenshots in the attached zip.

any ideas ?
