Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Parallax Content Slider] Use with custom post typesI needed to create a custom version that showed the contents of a custom post type.
I set up a new custom post type called slides
$labels = array( 'name' => _x('Slides', 'slide'), 'singular_name' => _x('Slide', 'slide'), 'add_new' => _x('Add New Slide', 'slide'), 'add_new_item' => __('Add New publication'), 'edit_item' => __('Edit slide'), 'new_item' => __('New slide'), 'view_item' => __('View slide'), 'search_items' => __('Search slide'), 'not_found' => __('No slides found'), 'not_found_in_trash' => __('No slide found in Trash'), 'parent_item_colon' => '' ); $args = array( 'labels' => $labels, 'public' => true, 'publicly_queryable' => true, 'show_ui' => true, 'query_var' => true, 'rewrite' => true, 'capability_type' => 'post', 'hierarchical' => false, 'menu_position' => null, 'supports' => array('title','editor','author','thumbnail','excerpt','comments') ); register_post_type('slide',$args);then modified you plugin in order to select only the slide post type
$args = array( 'post_type' => array('slide'), // not 'page' 'orderby' => $prlx_sort, 'order' => $prlx_order, 'numberposts' => $prlx_slider_nb_articles, 'cat' => $cat ); $myposts = get_posts( $args ); // -------------------------------------------------------- // HTML Output beginningand finally tweaked the output display in order to show the contents and thumbnail:
/* * Generate HTML output for an article slide */ function get_article_slide($title, $content, $link_article, $url_image, $title_length, $alt_image = 'Alternative text') { // Parameters if (strlen($title) > $title_length) $title = substr($title, 0, $title_length)."..."; // Slide output $outputSlide = "<div class='da-slide'>"."\n"; $outputSlide .= "<h2>".$title."</h2>"."\n"; $outputSlide .= $content."\n"; // $outputSlide .= "<a href='".$link_article."' class='da-link'>Read more</a>"."\n"; $outputSlide .= "<div class='da-img'><img src='".$url_image."' alt='".$alt_image."' /></div>"."\n"; $outputSlide .= "</div>"."\n"; return $outputSlide; }The easiest way o display a publications page would be to create a new page template (e.g. cloning the archive or the index template) and add the following code before the loop.
query_posts( 'post_type=publications');You can also create a custom template for the single publications view by naming it single-publication.php
