Building a Hierarchy using WordPress Template Pages


Configuring my WordPress Tag Template Page

Posted on 11/14/2009 at 1:35 pm by MikeLT

Tags associated with individual posts can be a powerful way of indexing a site. For me, I plan to write about multiple subjects, and hopefully will amass a good deal of content on each subject.

Tags are like categories on steroids, whereas a post will usually belong to one broad category, but can address a multitude of subjects (tags).

Building the Category Template Page

Posted on 10/11/2009 at 4:18 pm by MikeLT

Instead of having one page with only a title and a couple of lines of text, I will first use a php query to determine if there a more than two posts in the category, and then run two while loops.

If the query returns true, that there are more than two posts, I will show only the exerpts. Otherwise, (else), the while loop runs again showing the full post.

The Archive Template Page

Posted on 10/10/2009 at 3:05 pm by MikeLT

While it may not seem like it on the face of things, the archive.php template page has some awesome responsibility. As the page of last resort for up to eight templates, the archive acts as the last chance for formatting before the index is called for the all important category, tag, author, and date pages.
