Featuring pages on another page / post than home

by Press Customizr|Published 6 August 2014

Let’s say you’ve setup three beautiful featured pages on your home page. Now you might want to display this block of featured pages in another post or page of your website.

This snippet will show you how to do it.

Note : Customizr-Pro and Featured Pages Unlimited users should replace `__get_option` with `__get_fpc_option` and `tc_show_featured_pages` with `tc_show_fp`

Move your home featured pages in another page / post

In the following example, I move featured page from home to page with id #47.

add_filter ( 'tc_show_fp' , 'move_fp_from_home_to_somewhere');
function move_fp_from_home_to_somewhere () {
	//this checks if there are featured pages defined in the theme options in database and if your conditional tag returns a true value
	return 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_option' , 'tc_show_featured_pages' ) )
		&& is_page( 47 );
}

Duplicate your home featured pages in other pages/posts

In this example, I duplicate the featured pages to three different pages with ids #47, # 48, #49.

add_filter ( 'tc_show_fp' , 'my_fp_boolean_condition');
function my_fp_boolean_condition ($show_fp) {
	//this checks if there are featured pages defined in the theme options in database and if your conditional tag returns a true value
	return 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_option' , 'tc_show_featured_pages' )
		&& is_page( array (47, 48, 49 ) );
}

Is there a way to add this with a [shortcode] – rather than editing a file?

Hello Nicolas,

Thank you for the above code snippet for featured pages.

My goal is to have a couple of my internal sub pages (not all of them) to look like the front page with the feature page links.
So, I tried the code above for duplicating the featured page in other pages.

But the featured page links in my Front Page are gone now and appear in the sub pages where I want them. How to get the links back in my Front page?

Any help is greatly appreciated. I’m using Customizr Pro, latest version.
Thanks

Hi there,

I added the code under “Duplicate your home featured pages in other pages/posts” to my child theme’s functions.php , and this broke my website. Does this have anything to do with the customizr theme being updated?

  Hello Asool,
  just re-tested this snippet with the latest Customizr (3.4.8) and it works fine.
  You might have done some syntax error..?
  Take a look at this doc on how to debug your wp:

Hi,
I have been looking over the responses on this forum and tried most of them but I cannot seem to find a solution to my problem. I would like to have featured pages appear on another page, I want the featured pages to be different than the ones that are on my home page. I managed to get the featured page bubbles on another page, but they no longer appeared on my home page and I was not able to change which pages appeared. I know this topic has been discussed before but I really cannot figure this out. I’m a total newbie at Wordpress by the way.
Thank you!

Dear Nicolas,

We would like to add more featured pages to different pages and this is great – we can use code above. However, we would like to use different images, links and titles for different pages. Basically we need FP design on another page but with all different info. How do we do this?

Thanks,
Moh

    Hi Nicolas,
    
    You gave me some code to add FPs to all pages and it works great – as always!
    
    how do I exclude the cart and checkout pages from displaying FPs please?
    Thanks

Dear Nicolas,

Many thanks for responding so quickly.

I’ve tried this code and the home page seems to work but the FPs don’t appear on any other pages. In customise theme I’ve tried to set the FPs to be in other places and if I set ‘Before Footer’ the FPs don’t appear.

Any ideas what is wrong?

One other question I’d like the FPs to be all the same height irrespective of how much text they have in them, how do I change the code to do this please?

Many thanks
Guy

Hello Nicolas,
I’ve bought your plugin for my Customizr theme and thought that it would be easy to duplicate my home page featured pages to all my sites pages and product pages (i’m using Woocommerce) but whatever I try to do give the wrong result.

First I tried using the custom location and added the to my theme header and that was fine for the home page but when I put this code into my functions.php:

add_filter ( ‘tc_show_fp’ , ‘move_fp_from_home_to_somewhere’);
function move_fp_from_home_to_somewhere () {
//this checks if there are featured pages defined in the theme options in database and if your conditional tag returns a true value
return 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( ‘__get_option’ , ‘tc_show_featured_pages’ ) )
&& is_page( 47 );
}
The featured pages appear before the page text, which is obvious really as they appear before an text on the home page!

So I’d like to have the featured pages appear just before the footer (I’ve had no luck getting this to work for me).
Can you help please?
Thanks
Guy

  Hi Guy,
  
  Here’s the code you need to :
  1) display featured pages in a custom location on home
  2) display the same set of FP in another custom location on other pages
  
  add_filter ( 'tc_show_fp' , 'my_fp_boolean_condition'); function my_fp_boolean_condition ($show_fp) { //this checks if there are featured pages defined in the theme options in database and if your conditional tag returns a true value return 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_fpc_option' , 'tc_show_fp' ) ); } add_action( 'wp_head' , 'change_fp_location', 100 ); function change_fp_location($option) { if ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) return; if ( ! class_exists('TC_front_fpu') ) return; $hook = esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_fpc_option' , 'tc_fp_position' ) ); //remove the previous location set for home page remove_action ( $hook , array(TC_front_fpu::$instance , 'tc_fp_block_display'), 10 , 1 ); //set the new location add_action( '__before_footer' , array(TC_front_fpu::$instance , 'tc_fp_block_display'), 10 , 1 ); }
  
  Hope this helps!

    Hello Nicolas,
    
    I’ve found the problem with my code not working. It was my fault and your code works fine. What I did do is remove the code to re-position the Featured Pages (Starts here: add_action( ‘wp_head’ , ‘change_fp_location’, 100 );) and this is excellent as I can use the Customize option in my child them to manage the Featured Pages which now appear on all pages.
    It would be very helpful for me in a future version to be able to have maybe 3 or 4 sets of Featured Pages that I can display on different types of pages e.g. pages, posts, products (I use Woocommerce), home page – I hope you can do this soon.
    
    Thanks

Hi

Thank you for the above code. I like to duplicate the featured pages to 404 not found page. At the moment there is quotation on top of the 404 page from George Orwell and then the search box. Ideally I would like to add the featured pages below the search box.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards
- Nicolas
  24 September 2014, 19 h 30 min
  Hi Farz,
  You can modify the snippet this way to display your featured pages in the 404 page.
  
  add_filter ( 'tc_show_fp' , 'my_fp_boolean_condition'); function my_fp_boolean_condition ($show_fp) { //this checks if there are featured pages defined in the theme options in database and if your conditional tag returns a true value return 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_option' , 'tc_show_featured_pages' ) && is_404() ); }
  
  Then, to move the FP below the search box, you’ll need to modify their initial hook like in the following example.
  
  add_action('template_redirect' , 'fp_hook_setup'); function fp_hook_setup() { if ( 0 != esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_option' , 'tc_show_featured_pages' ) && is_404() ); remove_action ( '__before_main_container' , array( TC_featured_pages::$instance , 'tc_fp_block_display'), 10 ); add_action ('__after_loop' , , array( TC_featured_pages::$instance , 'tc_fp_block_display'), 10 ); }
  
  I hope this will help you achieve what you need!

Hey,

First of all, thanks a lot for this great theme and the code snippets, they’ve helped me a great deal to get started with wordpress!
I see that these snippets move or duplicate the featured pades, but what if I want to feature different pages on yet a different page?
Is it also possible?
- Nicolas
  16 August 2014, 15 h 46 min
  Hi Steve, you can change the featured pages id with the filter named : tc_fp_id and defined as follow in the core code :
  
  $featured_page_id = apply_filters( 'tc_fp_id', esc_attr( tc__f( '__get_option' , 'tc_featured_page_'.$fp_single_id) ), $fp_single_id );
  
  Hope this will help you.

Hi,

so far i have dublicated the featured pages to another page, which worked fine and moreover changed the linked content but is there a way to also change the featured image, text and button to the newly linked page? Right now the images, text and button refer to the old link but clicking on them leads to the new page.
I already found the “different texts on the Featured Pages Buttons” snipped, but that one is changing the text of the buttons generally and not only the one of the dublication .
I would be very thankful for some help.
Regards

Hi, i would like to put different page links than the homepage links on the others pages.
I don’t know at all how to do it, is it even possible ?
- Nicolas
  6 August 2014, 22 h 30 min
  Hi Julien,
  As described in this snippet, you can customize your featured pages links with this code :
  
  add_filter('tc_fp_link_url' , 'my_custom_fp_links', 10 ,2); function my_custom_fp_links( $original_link , $fp_id ) { //assigns a custom link by page id $custom_link = array( //page id => 'Custom link' 2 => 'http://www.my-custom-url-one.com', 9 => 'http://www.my-custom-url-two.com' ); foreach ($custom_link as $page_id => $link) { if ( get_permalink($page_id) == $original_link ) return $link; } //if no custom title is defined for the current page id, return original return $original_link; }
  
  Now if you need to customize the links of featured pages on other pages than home, just add a conditional tag in the callback function (my_custom_fp_link() ). For example :
  
  add_filter('tc_fp_link_url' , 'my_custom_fp_links', 10 ,2); function my_custom_fp_links( $original_link , $fp_id ) { //assigns a custom link by page id $custom_link = array( //page id => 'Custom link' 2 => 'http://www.my-custom-url-one.com', 9 => 'http://www.my-custom-url-two.com' ); foreach ($custom_link as $page_id => $link) { if ( get_permalink($page_id) == $original_link && is_page(47)) //<= this new condition ( is_page(47) ) forces the code to be applied only for this page (it should be the id of the page where you've moved or duplicated your featured pages) return $link; } //if no custom title is defined for the current page id, return original return $original_link; }
  
  Hope this will help
