Number of Posts Published/Edited In the last 48 hours

Daniel — Sun, 15 Aug 2021 14:02:15 +0000

With this tutorial, we will learn how to create a WP Query which will return the number of posts published or edited during the last 2 days.

With this query, we will ping the Post Type and the results will display the Post Type counter published/edited in the last 2 days.

With our example, the post type is crasyphotosgalleries.
We will add two arguments with the date_query: the first one will check the post_date and/or the post_modified of the last 2 days.

Create a query - Number of posts published/edited

With a function we will return the results within a WordPress shortcode.

///////////////////////////////////// Shortcode show Count Modified 48 Hours //////////////
add_shortcode( 'addocountpost', 'addo_count_posttype_modified' );
function addo_count_posttype_modified(){ 
	$args = array(
		'post_type' => 'crasyphotosgalleries',
		'date_query' => array(
			'relation'   => 'OR',
			array(
				'column'  => 'post_date',
				'after'   => '-2 days'
			),
			array(
				'column'  => 'post_modified',
				'after'   => '-2 days'
			)
		)
	);
	// query
	$updated = new WP_Query($args);
	$totalpost = $updated->found_posts; 
        return '' . $totalpost . ''; 
}

You can use the following shortcode in your content:

[addocountpost]

You can use the following shortcode in your templates:

Get Post/Page quantity by user role

Daniel — Fri, 26 Feb 2021 16:16:47 +0000

With this tutorial, we will create new WordPress functions which will get the quantity of posts or post types by user role.
In the example below, the role will be chroniqueur. If we want to add a new user role, we need a new function such as the function below. Make sure to assign users to your roles if necessary.

/**************************************** Add a new role Member ***********************************/

function themespress_role_partenaire() {  
    //add the new user role
    add_role(
        'chroniqueur',
        'Chroniqueur',
        array(
            'read'         => true,
            'delete_posts' => false
        )
    );
 
}
add_action('admin_init', 'themespress_role_partenaire');

And then we need to query the database by checking how many posts or post types are associated with the user. Within the function, we need to set the role with the user; you can replace news_writer by author for example.

With this function, we will stock the variable used to query the database for the post or post type parameter.$post_type

function count_chahuts_by_author($post_type){
// Change here the user role
       $user_query = new WP_User_Query( array( 'role' => 'chroniqueur' ) );
	// Get the total number of users for the current query. I use (int) only for sanitize.
	$users_count = (int) $user_query->get_total();
	// Echo a string and the value
	return $users_count;
}

Now we will create a shortcode that will return the value of the function above. For example our shortcode will be: [chroniqueurchahutcount]

For our example, the shortcode will return the quantity of chahuts post type which will match the chroniqueur user.

/////////////////////////////////////// Shortcode count chahut ///////////////////////////////////////
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

function shortcode_chroniqueurs_count_chahut(){
$user_ID = get_current_user_id(); 
return count_chahuts_by_author($user_ID, 'chahuts');
}
add_shortcode('chroniqueurchahutcount', 'shortcode_chroniqueurs_count_chahut');

Add your [chroniqueurchahutcount] shortcode in your template or your formidable form.

Be careful as this tutorial will generate the result for a user connected with their user_id (current_user).

Creating a Shortcode to Obtain a Post’s ID

Daniel — Wed, 11 Jul 2018 13:18:08 +0000

With this tutorial, we will create a shortcode that will allow us to fetch the ID of the current post. This shortcode is often referred to as current post id . For example, this can be used to fetch a param and get the value in order to stash it in a form.

We will need to add this shortcode into our functions.php file and will return the current post id.

//[thepostid]
function thepostidfunc( $atts ){
         global $post;
         return $post->ID;   
}
add_shortcode( 'thepostid', 'thepostidfunc' );

Puis vous pouvez l’appeler de cette façon :

Display posts related of a taxonomy slug

Daniel — Mon, 24 Apr 2017 17:41:46 +0000

Display posts related of a taxonomy slug: With this tutorial, we will create a query that will display a list of post type or posts linked to a taxonomy’s slug.

With our example, we will create a taxonomy which represents an artist. Our Post Type will be viavideos.

With the example below, we will store the args and taxonmy inside a variable and fetch it with post ID.

We will now create our WordPress query for the viavideos Post Type, and then we’ll add the artist taxonomy’s tax_query.

Finally we’ll add a condition that excludes the ID of the currently viewed ID.(‘post__not_in’ => array ($post->ID)).

ID, 'artiste', array('fields' => 'ids') );
// arguments
$args = array(
//Change you Post Type or post for posts WordPress
'post_type' => 'viavideos', 
'post_status' => 'publish',
'posts_per_page' => 3, // you may edit this number
'orderby' => 'rand',
'tax_query' => array(
	array(
	'taxonomy' => 'artiste',
	'field'    => 'id',
	'terms'    => $taxonomyterms
    )
),
'post__not_in' => array ($post->ID),
);
 
$related_items = new WP_Query( $args );
// loop over query
if ($related_items->have_posts()) : while ( $related_items->have_posts() ) : $related_items->the_post();
?>
//// Your loop

Adapt this query to match your needs and add it inside your loop.

Count Post meta key by WordPress Post ID

Daniel — Thu, 30 Mar 2017 16:48:01 +0000

With this tutorial, we will create a query that will count the number of post meta key.

Let’s say we need to create a post meta views that will count the number of views per post ID.

First of all, we need to request the data used by fetching the meta key with get_post_meta.

With the example below, we have the post meta key called _post_like_count which will count the number of likes for each WordPress post.

Here’s the code snippet to inject into your single.php or custom single post type template.

 1) { 
echo 'View(s)'; 
} 
else { 
echo 'view'; 
} 
?>

Feels free to use our Via Post Meta Key widget which will automatically sort your posts by post meta key.

Display the Number of Posts with Draft Status in Admin Menu

Daniel — Thu, 20 Oct 2016 19:31:44 +0000

This tutorial will show you how to add a new function in your WordPress admin which will display the number of posts and post-type with a Draft status.

This function will help WordPress admins to validate posts and post type pending verification with the Draft status.

To accomplish this, we will use the add_menu_classes filter.

Display the Number of Posts with Draft Status in Admin Menu

add_filter( 'add_menu_classes', 'viavideos_pending_number'); 
function viavideos_pending_number( $menu ) {
    // Changer par le nom de votre Post Type ou post
	$type = 'viavideos';
    // Vous pouvez ici mettre un autre statut
	$status = 'draft';
	// On fait le compte des Posts Ou Post Type
    $num_posts = wp_count_posts( $type, 'readable' );
	// On part de 0 en statut draft et on fait le compte
    $pending_count = 0;
    if ( !empty($num_posts->$status) )
        $pending_count = $num_posts->$status;

    // build string to match in $menu array
    if ($type == 'post') {
        $menu_str = 'edit.php';
    // support custom post types
    } else {
        $menu_str = 'edit.php?post_type=' . $type;
    }

    // On affiche le resultat dans le menu admin concerné
    foreach( $menu as $menu_key => $menu_data ) {
        if( $menu_str != $menu_data[2] )
            continue;
        $menu[$menu_key][0] .= " " . number_format_i18n($pending_count) . '';
    }
    return $menu;
}

WordPress Query Post by Date

Daniel — Wed, 02 Mar 2016 19:28:12 +0000

With this tutorial, we will create a query that will display Post Type posts from the last 7 days. We will store our arguments inside a variable, $semaine, and we loop it.

Le Query Post

For this example, our Post Type will be viavideos. Replace it with your own Post Type or replace by post for your articles.

The posts_per_page is set to -1 since we want to do a Query Post for 7 days since we don’t want it to spread across multiple pages. If you want to paginate it, simply specify the number of results you want per page; for example 5.

We will thus create a query with date_query which will fetch the data from the last 7 days. Notice that we specified the status (post_status) needs to be publish and we added orderby Date.

WordPress Query Post by Date

 'viavideos', 
'post_status'     => 'publish', 
'posts_per_page'  => -1, 
'orderby'         => 'date', 
'order'           => 'DESC', 
'date_query'      => array( 
	array( 
	'after'       => '1 week ago' 
	)
) 
)); 
while ( $semaine->have_posts() ) : $semaine->the_post(); ?>
