$_GET and WordPress
See the solution :
In order to be able to add and work with your own custom query vars that you append to URLs, (eg: www.site.com/some_page/?my_var=foo
- for example using add_query_arg()
) you need to add them to the public query variables available to WP_Query
. These are built up when WP_Query
instantiates, but fortunately are passed through a filter query_vars
before they are actually used to populate the $query_vars
property of WP_Query
.
For your case :
function add_query_vars_filter( $vars ){ $vars[] = "size"; return $vars; } add_filter( 'query_vars', 'add_query_vars_filter' );
and on your template page call the get methode like that :
$size_var = (get_query_var('size')) ? get_query_var('size') : false;if($size_var){ // etc...}

I hope it helps !
Not sure if this will show anything but try turning on error reporting with:
<?php error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors', true);?>
at the top of your page before any other code.
Edit:
From the OP comments:
silly question, but are you sure youare viewing the results of your latestchanges to the file and not a cachedcopy of the page or something? Change"hello world" to something else.(Sorry grasping at straws, but thishappened to me before) – Zenshai
ahaha, the person thatwere doing the changes didn't changedthe correct file. It's working now –marcgg
peer programming fail ^^ – marcgg
That would be an "or something",can't tell you how many times i'vedone something like that. Glad youwere able to figure it out in the end.– Zenshai
I usually discover errors like these only when they begin to defy everything I know about a language or an environment.
