Hello!
On my site, I have two post types that I want to show on my homepage (‘post’ and ‘event’, filtered by additional categories/tags).
So far, I was using the following code:
if ( ( is_home() || is_feed() || is_category() || is_tag() ) ) {
$post_type = get_query_var('post_type'); if($post_type && $post_type[0] != 'post') { $post_type = $post_type; } else { $post_type = array('post','event'); // add custom post types here } $query->set('post_type',$post_type);(…) add settings for categories/tags here
}
add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘edit_my_query’);
This worked fine for the past several years, and my pictures would show in the slider where I asked for it.
Now, I am a getting a problem with some other plugin - and the author tells me that I have to add a “ && $query->is_main_query() ” to the opening “if” statement of my query, e.g. “if ( ( is_home() && $query->is_main_query()“
However, if I limit myself to is_main_query, my code seems to not get processed in the slider anymore - and I am not seeing any pictures for my ‘event’ post type.
Is there a way to check that I am in the slider query (something like $query->is_slider_query)? Or, is there some other way for me to get both the ‘post’ and the ‘event’ post types into the slider?
