In this article I share sample code of a Page Template which adds a new section below the existing content. The new section displays two loops:
- three entries from
portfolioCPT - six regular posts tagged
project
Create a file named page-slug.php where slug is your static Page’s slug. In this example, the Page title is “Portfolio and Projects” and its slug is “portfolio-and-projects”. Hence the template is named page-portfolio-and-projects.php inside the child theme directory.
Here’s the PHP code for the above file:
| <?php | |
| add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'sk_do_loop' ); | |
| /** | |
| * Outputs a custom loop | |
| * | |
| * @global mixed $paged current page number if paginated | |
| * @return void | |
| */ | |
| function sk_do_loop() { | |
| // Loop 1 | |
| $args1 = (array( | |
| 'post_type' => 'portfolio', | |
| 'posts_per_page' => 3, | |
| 'no_found_rows' => true | |
| )); | |
| echo '<h2 class="loop-title">Portfolio</h2>'; | |
| genesis_custom_loop( $args1 ); | |
| // Loop 2 | |
| $args2 = (array( | |
| 'tag' => 'project', | |
| 'posts_per_page' => 6, | |
| 'no_found_rows' => true | |
| )); | |
| echo '<h2 class="loop-title">Projects</h2>'; | |
| genesis_custom_loop( $args2 ); | |
| } | |
| genesis(); |

Background:
In a #genesiswp page template with custom loops, neither one obeys the posts_per_page value. One to be 3, the other 6. Any ideas?
