DC Cover Theme

tiki god — Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:35:06 +0000

“This January, we’re putting the focus squarely on the characters and iconic heroes of the DCU,” said DCU Co-Publisher Dan DiDio. “Not only will we tell new stories some of the more-deserving with special one-shots, but we’ll be giving every title in the line a unique treatment that puts the spotlight on the heroes and villains that populate the DC Universe.”

You can see the placeholder covers below, when the actual covers come out I’ll put them here.

How to show the user level in wordpress in the comments

tiki god — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 18:03:06 +0000

This is how you can show the comment user’s level:

$user = get_userdata($comment->user_id); echo $user->user_level;

how to show all untagged posts in wordpress

tiki god — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:19:57 +0000

over on www.myconfinedspace.com I was having trouble keeping track of which posts had been properly tagged or not. using this code, you’ll be able to display the untagged posts. And edit button will appear when appropriate.

$temp = $wp_query; $wp_query= null; $wp_query = new WP_Query(); $wp_query->query('showposts=500'.'&paged='.$paged); ?>




if (!$tag) { ?>

	 - - 


	}

endwhile;

  endif; ?>

please note the large number of posts that will be shown. Since it’s only the post titles that are loading there shouldn’t be a problem with 500 of them at once, but your server may not be the uber powerhouse that mine is Another quirk of this bit of code is that each page is 500 posts of your material, and it only shows the ones that are untagged. so if you have untagged posts that are 4,000 posts back, you’ll need to click over to page 8 or 9 to see those posts pop up on this.

how to list your future posts in wordpress

tiki god — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:14:28 +0000

Want to show what posts are coming up? add this bit of code in:

$my_query = new WP_Query('post_status=future&showposts=1000&order=asc'); ?>


    
    if ($my_query->have_posts()) : while ($my_query->have_posts()) :

        $my_query->the_post();

        ?>


             -

please note that I have it set to a thousand posts to be shown, so you may want to limit it on your installation. Also, all I have there is the time and post title, but you can add in the rest of the post information to your liking.

why won’t my wp_query work in wordpress?

tiki god — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:12:05 +0000

I’ve had it happen a few times that my custom queries and even some of the ‘ishome’ or ‘isfrontpage’ queries weren’t working correctly. before you pull your hair out, try adding this immediately before your query:

Show the first image of a specific post in wordpress

not exactly sure why I was looking to do this, but here it is anyways:

note that you’ll need to have added the ‘list_first_image’ bit to your functions.php file.

wordpress – how to show first attachment

tiki god — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:04:14 +0000

add this to your theme’s “functions.php” page:

function list_first_image() { $files = get_children('post_parent='.get_the_ID().'&post_type=attachment&post_mime_type=image'); if($files) : $keys = array_reverse(array_keys($files)); $j=0; $num = $keys[$j]; $image=wp_get_attachment_image($num, 'large', false); $imagepieces = explode('"', $image); $imagepath = $imagepieces[1]; $thumb=wp_get_attachment_thumb_url($num); print " '$thumb' "; endif; }

alternatively you can also pass along some size requirements. this is the one that’s in use under each ‘single post’ on www.myconfinedspace.com :


function get_first_image() {

$files = get_children('post_parent='.get_the_ID().'&post_type=attachment&post_mime_type=image');

  if($files) :

    $keys = array_reverse(array_keys($files));

    $j=0;

    $num = $keys[$j];

    $image=wp_get_attachment_image($num, 'large', false);

    $imagepieces = explode('"', $image);

    $imagepath = $imagepieces[1];

    $thumb=wp_get_attachment_thumb_url($num);

    print "";

  endif;

}

once you have either of those added to your functions.php file, you can call them using :
