I have the code below which works fine in displaying Posts that are tagged with the Page's 'slug'.
The php file is called pagesofposts.php as suggested in the wordpress codex documentation.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Page Of Posts
*/
/* This example is for a child theme of Twenty Thirteen:
* You'll need to adapt it the HTML structure of your own theme.
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
<?php
/* The loop: the_post retrieves the content
* of the new Page you created to list the posts,
* e.g., an intro describing the posts shown listed on this Page..
*/
global $post;
$slug = get_post( $post )->post_name;
if ( have_posts() ) :
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
// Display content of page
get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );
wp_reset_postdata();
endwhile;
endif;
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
// Change these category SLUGS to suit your use. category_name is comma separated.
'tag' => $slug,
'paged' => $paged
);
$list_of_posts = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<?php if ( $list_of_posts->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php /* The loop */ ?>
<?php while ( $list_of_posts->have_posts() ) : $list_of_posts->the_post(); ?>
<?php // Display content of posts ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() ); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php twentythirteen_paging_nav(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'none' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_footer(); ?>
My problem is that the Page title appears as if it is a post as it loses its formatting.
I have included below the default page.php file which from my understanding is the default template used by Pages.
<?php
/**
* The template for displaying all pages.
*
* This is the template that displays all pages by default.
* Please note that this is the WordPress construct of pages and that other
* 'pages' on your WordPress site will use a different template.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Twenty_Thirteen
* @since Twenty Thirteen 1.0
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
<?php /* The loop */ ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
<header class="entry-header">
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() && ! post_password_required() ) : ?>
<div class="entry-thumbnail">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<div class="entry-content">
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-links"><span class="page-links-title">' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentythirteen' ) . '</span>', 'after' => '</div>', 'link_before' => '<span>', 'link_after' => '</span>' ) ); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-content -->
<footer class="entry-meta">
<?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'twentythirteen' ), '<span class="edit-link">', '</span>' ); ?>
</footer><!-- .entry-meta -->
</article><!-- #post -->
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Could someone please help me combine the two so it acts as a standard page but associated posts are also shown at the bottom.
