Blog shortcode not working

resolved (11 posts) (4 voices)

  1. I created a page with 2 blog shortcodes. The first to display the last post with a large thumb and the second to display the other posts. That page display only only one categorie (different from the "blog" page).

    Here's the code :
    [blog_list thumb="large" showposts="1" post_content="excerpt" category_in="4"][blog_grid column="2" showposts="10" post_content="excerpt" offset="1" category_in="4" pagination="true" disable="meta"]

    The problems I have :

    1. Not displaying all the posts of the categorie, only the first 10. The "missing" posts can be view on the archive page of that categorie. It's as if the limit of post to show per page was the absolut limit.
    2. The pagination not working. It shows 4 pages (5 pages of post for the archive page of the same categorie) but on each page it display the same posts.

    Here's a link : http://miio.org/sofar/aiguilles-ciseaux

    Thanks !

    Hello,

    Let's try something, just to make sure that the shortcode works. Remove the second shortcode from your page, and insert it in a different one. Then, let us know if it worked.

    That way, we can see if it's a problem of the shortcode itself, or a conflict caused by the use of 2 shortcodes in the same page.

  3. I already tried to leave only one shortcode (I tried with both). Nonetheless I did what you asked me (http://miio.org/sofar/graphisme-illustration/page/4). Still not working :/

    I created these shortcode with the form below the page.

    Hello miio,

    1. I'm not sure I understand correctly. On your second shortcode you have showposts = "10" so it will only display 10 posts on each page. (for that shortcode)

    2. Try updating your permalinks and make sure that your blog page in Dashboard -> inFocus -> Blog is not set to that page where you are displaying the shortcodes.

    If your still having issues then PM us a Wordpress login so we can take a closer look.

  5. 1. Yeah it display 4 posts on each page. But it display the same 10 on each page. 4 pages absolutly identical. As you can see when looking at the links above.

    2. I tried to change the permalinks to no avail.

    So I will email a login. Thanks !

    Hello miio,

    When displaying posts on your homepage we have an option for this in Dashboard -> inFocus -> Homepage. http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php?title=Homepage

    Let us know if that works okay now.

  7. Hello Elliott,

    No unfortunately my problem is not on the homepage page but is with that shortcode :
    '[blog_grid column="2" showposts="10" post_content="excerpt" offset="1" category_in="4" pagination="true" disable="meta"]'

    You can see the problem on that page : http://miio.org/sofar/graphisme-illustration

    The categorie called by the shortcode is supposed to contain 36 posts. And it display the 10 same posts on every pages (4 pages in the pagination). So it's 10 posts repeated 4 times instead of 36 posts displayed 10 by 10 on 4 pages.

    I think it is because you were using an offset with the shortcode. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not so I'll bring it up with our devs to see what we can do.

  9. That's right, when I remove the offset, it works !

    Same here with Modular. I have pages laid out with the first post a full one, and then excerpt posts after. If I offset by 1 on the excerpts, the pagination just repeats the same thing if I go to the next page. If I remove the offset, it works perfect. I suppose I can live with it this way for now, but would like to see it fixed.

    Our devs know about this so we'll probably see something worked out in the next update.
