http://wriging.com/notes/ Wriging Thread: WordPress 2.3 Question about Tags/Cat en Thu, 08 Jan 2009 08:31:20 +0000 http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-85072 Sun, 30 Sep 2007 01:09:04 karmatosed 85072 <p>I"m having the same trouble with tags showing up on my modified loop. Still looking for a solution but when find one will post it. I'm using a foreach loop currently to get on 2 pages 2 categories showing the 2 latest posts. It falls over for tags - the irony being setup_postdata() can according the codex use any template tag and it even lists the_tags().</p> <p>EDIT: Just solved this using rewind_posts() before calling the loop and now have 2 loops happily pulling tags from different categories using the usual loop calling of query_posts(). Not sure if this will help you but just worked like a charm for me. </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-85055 Sat, 29 Sep 2007 22:19:57 bethdean 85055 <p>I just completed my upgrade, and everything seems to be working properly, except my tags won't display. I assume this is because I'm using a modified loop. Anyone have any experience with this / have to hack an already modified loop to get them to work? </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83857 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 23:13:25 ericjohnson 83857 <p>well the main thing i can say to that is that both derek's and paul's themes are rather complex and customized so something like this could very easily blow shit up. for the average person, other then moving one or two things around, it should basically cause no problems. </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83853 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 23:09:47 RightOn 83853 <p>That's what I was afraid of but my upgrade went over without a hitch. </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83852 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 23:08:08 ericjohnson 83852 <p>yesterday i watched, paul and derek's sites blow up from the upgrade, but after adjusting they got them up again. i have mamp installed on my mac so i'm going to load it in a test environment to see if it breaks anything. </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83850 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 22:56:28 Tyme 83850 <p>There are some deprecated functions and a change in how $wpdb is used. Many themes break because of $wpdb on 2.3 (usually with pulling categories like asides - so watch out for that). </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83847 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 22:41:17 RightOn 83847 <p>I've noticed NOTHING different from 2.2 other than the tag field under my new post window. So I dunno. </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83845 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 22:37:45 Andrew 83845 <p>Good question, I was wondering the same thing. What's the big deal about 2.3? </p> http://wriging.com/blogging/notes/6938/p/1/#response-83823 Tue, 25 Sep 2007 21:30:10 RightOn 83823 <p>I recently upgraded my main blog app to WordPress 2.3 from the 2.2.x branch and had a question.</p> <p>I currently use Categories but saw that the new 'feature' on 2.3 was tags. My current theme is coded for 2.2 so will there be any detrimental effects if I were to push all my categories to tags?</p> <p>What is the benefit? </p>
