I had a question about the sample screen shot at the beginning of the post. How would you have wordpress show the custom post type before the title like you do here? Also how would you style that?

I currently use this code, as per your example to show different custom post types on my home page.

/*show pages and recipes on home page */
function my_get_posts( $query ) {

if ( ( is_home() && false == $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) || is_feed() )
$query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'page', 'recipe') );

return $query;
}

?>

can you help me change the code to exclude posts from a certain category from being displayed?

Hi Justin, thanks for this code. I don’t pretend to fully understand it, but I will try to implement this feature. I like the flexibility of adding post type to the blog page.

Hi there Justin,
I have just started a new blog, and I am using a child theme for twentyten. I created two post types and noticed that they don’t show up at all. Even with a category assigned to them, they don’t show up in category page.
So I inserted the code you gave here in my function.php, and post types already show up in my homepage, but I get this error:

Warning: Illegal offset type in isset or empty in /home/magawork/public_html/criaturasblog/wp-includes/post.php on line 736

I have no idea what this means.
Can you help me please?

Just what I’ve been looking for but problem I have run in to a problem.

All my posts show on the home page page as I wish but I also have a gallery page which I would only like to display my gallery custom post types.

This is my code in page-gallery.php:

If I remove Justin’s code from my function.php then the only the gallery posts will be shown on the page but no on my home page.

Any idea’s? Or have I missed something?

Thanks

[...] Justin Tadlock met avant la simplicité d'afficher les nouveaux types de modules d'articles sur la page d'accueil de votre blog WordPress, mais également dans flux d'informations. En effet, bien que cette fonctionnalité est très efficace elle reste néanmoins accessible qu'à une partie des utilisateurs du gestionnaire de contenu qu'est WordPress. Ces types de modules d'articles peuvent être créés et gérer directement depuis l'interface d'administration de votre blog via l"utilisation de l'extension "Custom Post Type UI" (déjà présenté). Il existe également une extension pour gérer, depuis votre interface de création de contenu, l'affichage de vos nouveaux modules d'articles. [...]

Hello! I am trying to make a three-column homepage, with a different category’s post displaying in each of the first two columns. I’m using your Query Posts plug-in, but can’t get the main content to disappear.

Is this ‘$query->set()’ the solution? I would so appreciate your advice. You’ve already helped me a ton with this, my infinite gratitude!

All my best
Kelly

I entered the code in functions.php
under function editoptions() {

.But It doesn’t make any changes for any site in my multisite network. Am I missing anything?

Thank you !
