Hi there,
I’m using the wordpress plugin ‘List category posts’ ver 0.51 by Fernando Briano. I managed to alter the script a bit to include an exert of the post, which I’m happy about, but I have another 3 small issues I can’t figure out. The page I am referring to is http://www.localeyesvietnam.com/explore/north-central/hanoi/hanoi-things-to-do-2/ and I will post the version of the code at the end of the post.
Firstly, it seems to be limiting the results returned to 10 posts. I tried Ctrl-Fing ‘10’ and changing the only variable to ‘50’ but it didn’t work.
Secondly, I changed the sorting from ‘date’ to ‘name’; unfortunately it does it in reverse alphabetical order - not the way I intended.
These two probably just require someone whose eyes can read it quickly - something I can’t do yet unfortunately.
Finally, as you can see from the page I posted above, it doesn’t exactly look great - with the post name and excerpt running into one another with the same formatting. Is there a way to get the name in
styling, and leave the excerpt in
?
Thanks a million guys, I’m just not up to scratch with php and wordpress - I appreciate the help.
