[Resolved] GeneratePress: Post Formats don't work

[Torsten]

Post formats are integrated (I think) correctly in the functions.php and index.php.

functions.php:

 * Enable support for Post Formats
	 */
	add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'aside', 'image', 'video', 'quote', 'link' ) );

index.php

<?php
					/* Include the Post-Format-specific template for the content.
					 * If you want to override this in a child theme, then include a file
					 * called content-___.php (where ___ is the Post Format name) and that will be used instead.
					 */
					get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );
				?>

The template files exist.

But every time I write for example an aside or link, the post always shows the standard template.

Any hint?

Ok, Resolved the problem by myself. I missed to use “get_post_format()” in single.php.

Glad you figured it out 🙂

I don’t understand this and I don’t see any change in different post formats. Do I need to do something to activate them?

[Tom]

Weird, I’m literally working on them right now 🙂

Standard: Will spit out everything as usual, and will respect the “full post” or “excerpt” setting in the Customizer.

Aside: Will show your post with no title, date or author. Footer entry meta is still shown, and HTML is aloud.

Image: Will show all content, the “excerpt” setting will be ignored.

Video: Will show all content, the “excerpt” setting will be ignored.

Status: Will hide the title, date, author and footer meta – will only show your content.

Quote: Will show all content, the “excerpt” setting will be ignored.

Link: Will show all content, the title link will point to the first link in your content.

So yes, there’s a few in there that do the exact same thing – that may change in the future.

All of this is as of 1.2.9.

Thanks!

Nice list. 🙂

Gallery that shows a slide show in the excerpt would be nice, too. I saw that on another theme recently.

Hi there Tom and team,

I would have to agree with Dee…. a Gallery option for post formats. It takes all the images you embedded into a post, and turns them into a gallery / slideshow / slider.

Since I don’t see it as one of the post format options, is there any code / etc that you could share that would allow us to implement it?

Thank you!

[Tom]

That would definitely be cool.

Way too much code for me to try and share here, but it’s something I would like to implement.

Would the post still show the gallery, or would the items from the gallery show up in a slider and then have the gallery not show?

[Dee Broughton]

I think having just the slider is more intuitive these days, but there could always be an option, I guess.

[Tom]

So if you have the gallery post format set, convert the gallery to a slider and hide the gallery?

[Dee Broughton]

That’s what I would do.

[mate mike]

Agreed 🙂

Hi,
I need to differentiate the posts on my site between articles and recipes so that I can place the specific markups of structured data in them.

Creating a new type of post does not seem to be the best alternative because the articles are already there on the site and I do not want to change url, etc.

So I would like to know how I can copy the “standard” post format to the “aside” format.

That way I will select the post format “aside” for every recipe and the structured data plugin would know where to place the necessary schemas in the recipes.

Can you open a new topic for your question?

This one is super old.

Thanks!
