To show only the title of posts on the site homepage, using the WordPress Default theme as an example,
in the wp-content/themes/default/index.php file you will find code similar to this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"> <?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small> <div class="entry"> <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?> </div> |
Add a favicon to your site in WordPress 2.0 or later, place your favicon.ico file
inside your theme folder (for example: wp-content/themes/default/) then add this line to header.php:
1 | <link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/favicon.ico" /> |
1 2 3 4 5 | // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it. if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { the_post_thumbnail(); } the_content(); |
To put the date and time on every post title on your site, you may have to change more than one template file. They may include index.php, single.php, category.php, and archives.php.
From among the various template files, find all references to the title of your post like this (your Theme version may be slightly different):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | <h2> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"> <?php the_title(); ?></a> </h2> <small> <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author() ?> </small> |
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | <h2> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"> <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> - <?php the_title(); ?></a> </h2> <small> by <?php the_author() ?> </small> |
In some cases it may be necessary to change sidebar.php.
1 2 3 4 5 | <h2>Categories</h2> <form action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" method="get"> <?php wp_dropdown_categories('show_count=1&hierarchical=1'); ?> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="view" /> </form> |
Put this code into your index.php where you wish the item to appear:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 | <li id="archives">Archives: <ul> <li><form name="archiveform" action=""> <select name="archive_chrono" onchange="window.location = (document.forms.archiveform.archive_chrono[document.forms.archiveform.archive_chrono.selectedIndex].value);"> <option value=''>By Month</option> < ?php get_archives('','','option', 1); ?> </></select> </form> </li> </ul></li> |
Create a file called wp-content/themes/default/pageofposts.php that has this code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 | <?php /* Template Name: PageOfPosts */ get_header(); ?> <div id="content" class="narrowcolumn"> <?php $showposts = -1; // -1 shows all posts $do_not_show_stickies = 1; // 0 to show stickies $args=array( 'showposts' => $showposts, 'caller_get_posts' => $do_not_show_stickies, ); $my_query = new WP_Query($args); ?> <?php if( $my_query->have_posts() ) : ?> <?php while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?> <?php //necessary to show the tags global $wp_query; $wp_query->in_the_loop = true; ?> <div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> <small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small> <div class="entry"> <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?> </div> <p class="postmetadata"><?php the_tags('Tags: ', ', ', '<br />'); ?> Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?> <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></p> </div> <?php endwhile; ?> <div class="navigation"> <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('« Older Entries') ?></div> <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries »') ?></div> </div> <?php else : ?> <h2 class="center">Not Found</h2> <p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p> <?php get_search_form(); ?> <?php endif; ?> </div> <?php get_sidebar(); ?> <?php get_footer(); ?> |
DropCaps is the name for the effect where the first letter of the first paragraph in an article drops below the line of text, and is displayed in a larger font-size than the other normal letters.
This can be done using BBCode quicktags. First, add this to your style sheet:
1 2 3 4 5 6 | #fp:first-letter { font-size : 300%; font-weight : bold; float : left; margin-right: 3px; } |
