Getting Blog Post to show on Front Page

Hello,

I have some blogs but they do not show up on the frontpage, is there a setting for the blog or setting for the front page I need to edit?

Hello,

Homepage shows the blog post of your theme that contain image, Create a post with an image, It will automatically display at your home page

 

Hello,

What change needs to be done to also show posts without image?

 

Hello,
Unfortunately there isn't a way to do that with our theme.
You should create a post with an image, It will automatically display at your home page

 

Hi,

But I see in the code that it looks for posts that have an image.
If a post has an images it gets displayed.

So I assume this can be changed so that it searches all posts and not only posts that have an image?

I tried removing this criteria but I get some errors, but i'm not a coder so I must be doing something wrong

 

Hello,

Go to the front-page.php file present in your theme directory and paste the code given below

Code:

<?php
            if (inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_blog_post') != '')
            {
            $post_limit = stripslashes(inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_blog_post'));
            } else {
            $post_limit = 3;
            }
            $args = array(
            'post_status' => 'publish',
            'posts_per_page' => $post_limit,
            'order' => 'DESC'
            );
            $query = new WP_Query($args);
            ?>
            <?php while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post(); ?>

In place of

Code:

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();   
            $content = $post->post_content;
            $searchimages = '~<img [^>]* />~';
            /*Run preg_match_all to grab all the images and save the results in $pics*/
            preg_match_all( $searchimages, $content, $pics );
            // Check to see if we have at least 1 image
            $iNumberOfPics = count($pics[0]);
            if (($iNumberOfPics > 0) || (has_post_thumbnail())){
            $key_1_value = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'img_key', true );
            // check if the custom field has a value
            if( empty( $key_1_value ) ) {
            inkthemes_image_post($post->ID);
            }
            }
            endwhile; 
            ?>             
            <?php
            if (inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_blog_post') != '')
            {
            $post_limit = stripslashes(inkthemes_get_option('inkthemes_blog_post'));
            } else {
            $post_limit = 3;
            }
            $args = array(
            'post_status' => 'publish',
            'posts_per_page' => $post_limit,
            'meta_key' => 'img_key',
            'meta_value' => 'on',
            'order' => 'DESC'
            );
            $query = new WP_Query($args);
            ?>
            <?php while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post(); ?>
            <?php
            $content = $post->post_content;
            $searchimages = '~<img [^>]* />~';
            /*Run preg_match_all to grab all the images and save the results in $pics*/
            preg_match_all( $searchimages, $content, $pics );
            // Check to see if we have at least 1 image
            $iNumberOfPics = count($pics[0]);
            if (($iNumberOfPics > 0) || (has_post_thumbnail())){
        ?>
