Newbie here. Thanks to WPCasts for this video. Can I ask some of the experienced WP coders 1) Why is this code happening in a theme in index.html? What if I want to put a custom query on a page in my current site using my current theme? 2) If I am following this tutorial to the letter and coding not on my local computer but on a dev WP website, how can I view the page? What URL should I use?
@@WPCasts I would agree, by reducing down what your requesting, to what you actually need is faster on the SQL end, so if your making a listing page and just need title, link, image then just asking for those would be better than returning the whole post content. Hope this makes sense, so $wpdb with a bespoke select query would be better. Great video on the ways to do it though as well 👌
I was messing around with the Query Loop Block with some CPTUI pages and accompanying taxonomies (cats and tags both)... I finally realized , I think, hat the Query Loop Block will not make use of those custom taxonomies...shrug. I can chose the Custon post type, but not any of the categories or tags that go with that CPT as you see under Posts...(or I still don't have CPTUI settings correct yet) That's how I ended up here on your video...So thanks! I know I can do that if I really must have it..:)
Hello, help me on how I can query posts using wp_query, and showing posts by views. I use jetpack views stats and that's what I want to use. I learnt a lot from this video though.
You made this very easy to follow and extremely helpful. Top notch content as always!!! Would love to see a tutorial on the best way to access post content outside of the loop.
I have a client website where I have a custom post type I created called “Events”. I have a few ACF fields inside of that CPT. On the home page I would like to display two of those events at a given time but need to let the user pick which events they need. I’m able to do just that, however the ACF fields don’t display everything else does. Is there a way to get the ACF fields to display on any given page from a CPT?
Very nice tutorial on getting the data FROM the database! Thank you! It'd be super cool to see a complementary tutorial on custom queries TO the database (i.e. insert/update data to the database). Thanks!
Bro, I am trying to get posts to display by page. Like I got an "author's" page (actually teacher's) and I want that page to be theirs, so that only the posts they wrote will display. I've been looking for hours on how to do this simple thing. Is it just like beyond wordpress's capabilities?
Do you have any videos on how to get custom post types to appear in the main blog roll or other archive pages? I'm a newbie and just built a theme using _s and am working on a CPT that I created using mu-plugins folder and register_post_type. When I click on the tags ot category tied to my CPT the articles from that CPT do not show. SAme with searching, though if I search a keyword in one of the titles, then that will return posts in my CPT. Either I missed something simple or I have to do something with the REST API which I do have show_in_rest set to true in the file where I registered it. If you don't have a video, any websites or articles that cover it?
Also, I'm not getting what you are getting from the pre tags - I'm getting the content but not the featured images and for WP_Query no SQL stuff or anything near what your output is.
6:10 WP_Query is good way to filter the post.
thanks, you save my life.

I discovered you today and feel like christmas came early this year
My mind is blown. This is so much easier than what I have been doing. Thank You.
my question among this three which is best way to query that is more efficent and that you recommend.... like for fast loading of data
I believe that $wpdb can be the fastest since you have more control over the query and less overhead. But I'm not 100% sure. I'll have to test it out!

Alex, these videos are great, thanks for doing them.
Would really like to see more ways of using custom fields.
More to come!
This is very clean and well put together. I love watching your videos. Thanks for the Tutorials!
Glad you like them!
Love your tuts as always. Would love to see more on how to build this out with a featured image, excerpt, title, metadata and read more link.

Hey Alex! Can you show us your CORS configuration sometime?
A great resource on queries thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tutorials. Please make a video on filtering posts using ACF field's plus AJAX.
Noted!

Hi
I need add to cart button click function customization?
All of your tuts are really good. Thank you!
Glad you think so!
how can I handle pagination when using wpdb->get_results ?
You missed mentioning something very important, does the wpdb class use prepared statements?

You only used wp_reset_postdata for get_posts - should you reset the post data after each method?
Thanks for the tutorial, which font do you use in VS code, could you tell please?

Don't you have to reset the post-data after using WP_Query()?
Another tutorial idea could be how to setup WP with TailwindCSS 2.0
Please make a complete ecommerc project with ACF and CPT(by coding)

Great overview of ways to query for posts 👍🏼
Thanks, Kellen! Love your work, btw!
@@WPCasts Thanks! Likewise! 😄
Much love man great content
Amazing! Thank you very much!!

NEVERMIND - didn't change $posts to $query in the print_r function - total newbie here - still not getting the thumbnail though
I'm not doing well - for $wpdb I had my CTP output the same posts multiple times but that didn't happen when I chose 'post'...
I really need help urgent
Great video thanks
No problem 👍
Custom search page tutorial 😀
Nice job.
Thanks!
Yes, need rendering tutorial
You got it!
@@WPCasts thank you. Many ways are there.. confusing for me. Explain us like this one. This video gives me clarity on custom queries
Life saver
