 Template editing

Do not edit templates in the plugin folder, since all your changes will be lost after plugin update.

To modify a built-in template you should copy it to your theme directory first. For convenience, you can copy the whole templates folder from the plugin folder. You can rename the copied folder, it doesn’t have to be templates. Resulting path to template files should look like so:

/wp-content/themes/THEME-NAME/templates/

Now you can edit copied template files.

Use the template attribute to change the template used by shortcode. The value of this attribute must be a template file path relative to your theme’s folder. Example:

In the example above the plugin will search for a template in the following locations (in the specified order):

/wp-content/themes/child-theme/templates/default-loop.php
/wp-content/themes/parent-theme/templates/default-loop.php
/wp-content/plugins/shortcodes-ultimate/includes/partials/shortcodes/posts/templates/default-loop.php

Creating custom templates

The

shortcode supports custom templates, which makes it incredibly powerful. Follow the steps below to create one.

Step 1

Create a new folder in your theme directory and name it su-posts-templates, so the resulting path would be:

/wp-content/themes/YOUR-THEME-NAME/su-posts-templates/

Step 2

Create a new file in the su-posts-templates folder and name it my-template.php. The resulting path would be:

/wp-content/themes/YOUR-THEME-NAME/su-posts-templates/my-template.php

Step 3

Put the following snippet into the created file:

<?php if ( $posts->have_posts() ) : ?>
  <div class="su-posts su-posts-my-template">
    <?php while ( $posts->have_posts() ) : ?>
      <?php $posts->the_post(); ?>
      <a href="<?php%20the_permalink();%20?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
  </div>
<?php else : ?>
  <p>Posts not found!</p>
<?php endif; ?>

Step 4

Now you can use the created template:

Adding custom template paths

If you need to store your templates outside of the theme directory, you can extend the list of allowed template paths. Use the following snippet in a custom plugin or in the functions.php file:

add_filter(
	'su/shortcode/posts/allowed_template_locations',
	function( $locations ) {

		// /wp-content/
		$locations[] = WP_CONTENT_DIR;

		return $locations;

	},
	10,
	1
);

The code above will allow you to store templates under /wp-content/ directory.

Pagination Plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-paginate/

Description

LATEST NEWS

WP-Paginate is a simple and flexible pagination plugin which provides users with better navigation on your WordPress site.

In addition to increasing the user experience for your visitors, it has also been widely reported that pagination increases the SEO of your site by providing more links to your content.

You can add custom CSS for your pagination links with the Custom CSS tab in WP-Paginate Settings.

Starting in version 1.1, WP-Paginate can also be used to paginate post comments!

Translations: https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wp-paginate/I18n (check the version number for the correct file)

FAQ

• How can I override the default pagination settings?

  The wp_paginate() and wp_paginate_comments() functions each takes one optional argument, in query string format, which allows you to override the global settings. The available options are:

  title – The text/HTML to display before the pagination links

  nextpage – The text/HTML to use for the next page link

  previouspage – The text/HTML to use for the previous page link

  before – The text/HTML to add before the pagination links and title

  after – The text/HTML to add after the pagination links

  empty – Display before markup and after markup code even when the page list is empty

  range – The number of page links to show before and after the current page

  anchor – The number of links to always show at beginning and end of pagination

  gap – The minimum number of pages before a gap is replaced with an ellipsis (…)Y

  ou can even control the current page and number of pages with:

  page – The current page. This function will automatically determine the value

  pages – The total number of pages. This function will automatically determine the value

  Example (also applies to ‘wp_paginate_comments()`)

  <?php if(function_exists('wp_paginate')) { wp_paginate('range=4&anchor=2&nextpage=Next&previouspage=Previous'); } ?>
