In this article I will help you display latest, recent posts of FishPig extension into sidebar blog (or somewhere) with title and image/thumbnail.

If you have installed Fishpig extension for WordPress on Magento platform and you also want to display popular or latest/recent posts (with title and image/thumbnail also if you like) into sidebar blog (left or right side) around your site.

To do this you need navigate to location: /app/design/frontend/your-package/default/template/wordpress/ open the file sidebar.phtml

then add the following code into

Code:

<?php $posts = Mage::getResourceModel('wordpress/post_collection') ->addPostTypeFilter('post')
		->setOrderByPostDate()
		->addIsViewableFilter()
		->setPageSize(10)
		->load(); ?>
	<?php if (count($posts) > 0): ?>
	

<div class="block block-list block-articles">
		

<div class="block-title">
			<strong><span><?php echo $this->__('Latest posts') ?></span></strong>
		</div>


		

<div class="block-content">
			

<ol id="articles-items">
				<?php foreach($posts as $post): ?>
					

<li class="item">
						<a href="<?php echo $post->getPermalink() ?>"><?php echo $this->escapeHtml($post->getPostTitle()) ?></a>
					</li>


				<?php endforeach; ?>
			</ol>


		</div>


	</div>


	<?php endif; ?>

if you also want to display image/thumbnail there, you can use this code:

<?php if ($image = $post->getFeaturedImage()): ?>
					<a href="<?php echo $post->getPermalink() ?>">
						<img src="<?php echo $image->getAvailableImage() ?>" src="<?php echo $this->escapeHtml($post->getPostTitle()) ?>" />
					</a>
				<?php endif; ?>
