Is there a way to add a style to category post items from the title.

EG the title of the group is Mercury, is there any way to add class = ‘widget mercury’ to the h3 tag. Basically I need to use a new colour for each category

Thanks

ı write “wp_cat_posts(21);” in a page but not shown posts?

first of all thank you very much for that kinda good plugin, i want to list only today’s posts by date, how can i do that? i am really in need of that asap.

if you can help me i will be very

thank you from now

It’s working fine BUT how can I limit the number of results?

wp_cat_posts(#) returns all the posts in the category.

Please advice.

plugin code
function wp_cat_posts( $catID = 0 ) {
$catID = (int) $catID;
$category = get_cat_name($catID);

$posts = get_posts(array(‘category’ => $catID, ‘numberposts’ => -1, ‘order’ => ASC, ‘orderby’ => title));
echo ” . $category;
foreach( (array) $posts as $post ) {
echo ‘ID) . ‘”>’ . $post->post_title . ‘‘;
}
echo ”;
}

?>

It is not shown on the wordpress plugin page. It say to insert this line of code but then doesn’t display it.

Cheers.

But I am still perplexed as how to limit the number of posts returned. Is there something in the parameters or do I have to hack the core files?

This plugin absolutely replaces the need for a sitemap, as I have set it to show on the Category page, just above the Post Extract in that specific Category.

Nice Job guys – it just needs this one little addition to make it perfect.

Firstly, thanks for the useful plugin.
I’ve modified this one to be used as a widget too. I think widgetize it can bring lots of possibilities like brought to me.
Check out the code here: http://pastebin.com/f3a213bfe

Best regards!

How best can I submit this patch to you for inclusion in the next version of the plugin?

If anyone is interested in getting it in the mean time, you can find it, and instructions, on my website.

This is currently used as a very basic display of all posts in a specific category and it is not always ideal to force it into a list. (In the future we’ll add that option, as a number of people have requested it.)

To force it into a list you’d change the code to something like this:

echo '

';
foreach( (array) $posts as $post ) {
echo '
• ID) . '">' . $post->post_title . '

';
}
echo '

';

And of course you could change that to suit your needs.
