Limit to only posts that are tagged using PHP?

First, you'll need to have your markup within the curly braces that belong to the foreach loop. Otherwise, the scope of the $post object you're referencing will not be available, and it give you an error This is what I came up with: ul> xpath("/tumblr/posts/post/tag/.."); foreach($posts as $post) { echo " ".($post->{'regular-title'}? $post->{'regular-title'}:$post->{'link-text'})." "; }?

> xpath("/tumblr/posts/post/tagcontains(text(),'xml') or contains(text(),'php') or contains(text(),'firefox')/.."); foreach($posts as $post) { echo " ".($post->{'regular-title'}? $post->{'regular-title'}:$post->{'link-text'})." "; }? > xpath("/tumblr/posts/post/tagcontains(text(),'xml') or contains(text(),'php') or contains(text(),'firefox')/.."); foreach($posts as $post) { if ($post->{'regular-title'}) { $slug = $post->{'regular-title'}; } else if ($post->{'link-text'}) { $slug = $post->{'link-text'}; } else { $slug = $post'url-with-slug'; } echo " ".

$slug." "; }? > However, that should work jfcoder.com/test/tumblrtest.php The XPath selects all TAG elements that belong to a POST element, then selects the parent ( ) of that TAG which gives you a SimpleXML object containing the relevant POST elements you're looking for Then, it iterates over each element, printing the $post s information into a UL element.

I'm not necessarily an XPath guru, so there should be a cleaner way than that I would think. And since I wasn't really digging on the ternary for the link text, or the fact I don't know if one or the other will always be available, this should be more descriptive with a fallback to the url. Xpath("/tumblr/posts/post/tagcontains(text(),'xml') or contains(text(),'php') or contains(text(),'firefox')/.."); foreach($posts as $post) { if ($post->{'regular-title'}) { $slug = $post->{'regular-title'}; } else if ($post->{'link-text'}) { $slug = $post->{'link-text'}; } else { $slug = $post'url-with-slug'; } echo " ".

$slug. " "; }? > EDIT And, you also might want to make a match of the entire text of the TAG element, so that you don't get matches on things like xml-is-for-noobs when you want xml tags only.Contains() will match both, while the below will only match xml.

/tumblr/posts/post/tagtext() = 'xml'/.. So, according to your comment, if you're looking for posts tagged events but don't want to catch tags like bowling-events, prevents fun, other events, etc..., you would want to make the text() = 'events' match. On the other hand, if you DID want to match anything with events in the text of the TAG node, use the contains(text(), 'events') method. EDIT 2 And if you're trying to limit the results, use position(): (/tumblr/posts/post/tagtext() = 'xml'/..)position() However, that should work.

jfcoder.com/test/tumblrtest.php The XPath selects all TAG elements that belong to a POST element, then selects the parent (..) of that TAG, which gives you a SimpleXML object containing the relevant POST elements you're looking for. Then, it iterates over each element, printing the $post's information into a UL element.

I'm kinda understanding how this works now. But I don't see how you can change what tags should the post come up? Because for my client, I need to get all posts that are tagged 'events'.... for example I used to get all posts that are tagged file... – kdevs3 Jul 23 at 16:35 btw thank you for helping – kdevs3 Jul 23 at 16:35 That's the contains() part.

From what it sounds like, you would have one contains statements that was /tumblr/posts/post/tagcontains(text(),'events')/... – Jared Farrish Jul 23 at 16:36 Oops, in the above comment I forgot the trailing /.. to select the parent (which I fixed). – Jared Farrish Jul 23 at 16:38 See my last edit about full text matching versus subtext matching. – Jared Farrish Jul 23 at 16:51.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
