Pass the post id

[easyweddings]

Hello,

I would like to include the widget on my custom templates and I cant figure out how to pass a post id to the widget function. I have tried the followings:
<?php GetWtiLikePost($post->ID)?>
<?php GetWtiLikePost(22)?>

It always seems to be using the post id of the page its is in.

Thanks

This is associated with the content filter so it will load for that content which is being rendered. If you are using any custom code for loading the buttons, you need to make sure that it is placed correctly in the loop. Can you please send the template file you are trying with to support@webtechideas.com? Also please share the specific site link so that we can have a look at that.

Thanks

It’s a quick change to make this happen. Might be worth rolling into the core?

wti_like_post_site.php

line 7: // pass post ID
function GetWtiLikePost($arg = null, $post_id=NULL)

Line 9: // use loop ID if post ID not specified
if($post_id == NULL) $post_id = get_the_ID();

Line 33: // get categories for post ID
$category = get_the_category($post_id);

You can then call:

GetWtiLikePost(NULL, $post->ID); // echo the output
GetWtiLikePost(‘put’, $post->ID); // return the output string instead of echo

GetWtiLikePost(); // will do what it did before the mods
