Code changes for Facet WP implementation

Support
#1

I have installed the ‘Facet WP’ plugin on my site which is using the X theme and am in the process of configuring. There is a requirement to make some code changes to the page template by adding the facetwp class - instructions available here: https://facetwp.com/using-facetwp-with-existing-template-files/

Can you please provide some guidance on how to implement this for the X theme? I have searched core template files, but can’t identify the ‘have_posts’ loop.
Thanks.

Hi @athyg,

Thanks for writing in.

Regretfully, customization of setup is beyond the scope of our support. However, I could send you guide on where it is located.

x\framework\views(stack)\template-files

Hope it helps.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks.

Thanks for getting back to me & for providing the recommended guide. I have managed to implement a basic solution which is sufficient for the time being, but would like to be able to apply filtering on more complex pages that have posts displayed in a ‘Grid’ layout, and not just a hyperlinked post title.
I’ll check this doco out & let you know how it goes.
Thanks again.

Thanks for this…I managed to identify the template file (wp-page.php), which contains the have_posts loop in my site file directory, based on the info you provided. So, takes my one step closer to implementing my required changes.

Hi John,
I was able to get this working on a page that included my posts in a grid layout. It involved updating my wp-page.php file to include the facetwp-template class.
Appreciate your assistance with this.
Athy.
