I think some of these example are a bit outdated.

I deleted the plugins and restored my database, it’s now showing entries that were published prior to September 1st (I had an article scheduled to publish today). Not sure what the problem is…

Hi! Found this article and thought it was great. I was using it just a few hours ago, and it was working fine until I tried to make it so it would stop duplicating private entries that were being shown through the plugin PrivatePost.

I got rid of all the code and went back to the original one provided here, and now it’s not showing up any entries. Any idea as to why?

Great article, too bad some examples (like category and posts) are outdated due to Wordpress’ database restructuring.

Is there a way to combine these custom mysql queries to have a monthly archive where only certain categories of news are extracted and listed from the database? So, if there are news in the “forbidden” categories, there wouldn’t be any links in the archive? I guess you have to combine the first query with the “where cat_id not in” condition, but I’m not sure how to do that…

Well done! Useful, concise, to the point. I’m already using one of your examples.

Arun, Did you use the SQL string as is, or did you make some modifications? You can also try downloading a plugin that does the same thing that shows your categories and posts.

I get this error:

WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '( p.post_date ) AS day FROM wp_post2cat pc, wp_categories c, wp]

I’m using WordPress v2.1.2. Any ideas?
