Hi mates,
I am using WP premium news Woo theme and need to change post display at certain categiry.

For istance, when you click on ''mobile phones'' category, all posts need to list uder with the picture on the left side and short description on the right side.

The picture and post title need to be link to the full post content.

Is there any plugin or any other option to do that. ( I am very bad PHP programer:cry:blush:scared )

Thank you:tup

You would need to create a new file from archive.php and call it category-#.php # being the category id you want to use that display. Then alter the template layout. I don't use that template, but pm me if you want me to have a look at it.

Please take a look at this sample: WooThemes Demos

Than click on the category, I'd like to display my posts as on this theme with the picture, some short text and 'continue reading' link to the full post.

Now, on my website, posts are displayed all full when you click on some category.

Hope this can help you understand what I want.


Thank you mates:tup:tup

As I mentioned above, make a copy of archive.php and rename it to category-#.php

Look at the code in the newly made file and find the line that looks like <?php the_content(); ?> Not knowing your theme I do not know what it will be exactly and it may have more code before the ?>

Change this line to:

<?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumb", true) ): ?>
   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><img class="thumb" style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px;"  src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/tools/timthumb.php?src=<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumb", $single = true); ?>&amp;h=<?php echo get_theme_mod('featured_top_left_thumb_height'); ?>&amp;w=<?php echo get_theme_mod('featured_top_left_thumb_width'); ?>&amp;zc=1" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /></a>   
<?php else: ?>
<?php endif; ?>				

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
