WordPress : display all articles of a month on one page

1 Views

I would like to change the default behavior of WordPress regarding the number of articles displayed on a same page to be the following :

  • when displaying the home page, the 10 most recent articles should be displayed, 10 being the setting which can be changed through the admin panel (posts_per_page)
  • when displaying the articles of a specific month (given through the URL like this : ?m=200906&order=ASC, I’d like to display on the same page all articles of this month (in other words, I don’t want to have to browse through articles using previous entries or next entries.

EDIT : I forgot something else I’d like to change :

On the page where all articles of the specified month are displayed, I would like to display the comments for each article.

  1. in your archive.php, add this on top of your template:

    $allowedOrder = array('ASC', 'DESC');
if(isset($_GET['m'])){
   $order = isset($_GET['order']) ? (in_array($_GET['order'], $allowedOrder) ? $_GET['order'] : $allowedOrder[0]) : $allowedOrder[0];
   $m = $_GET['m'];
   $y = substr($m, 0, 4);
   $m = substr($m, -2);
   $query = "posts_per_page=-1&year=$y&monthnum=$m&order=$order";
   query_posts($query);
 }

    Or, if you just have one big index.php template file, do this:

    $allowedOrder = array('ASC', 'DESC');
if(is_month()){
   $order = isset($_GET['order']) ? (in_array($_GET['order'], $allowedOrder) ? $_GET['order'] : $allowedOrder[0]) : $allowedOrder[0];
   $m = $_GET['m'];
   $y = substr($m, 0, 4);
   $m = substr($m, -2);
   $query = "posts_per_page=-1&year=$y&monthnum=$m&order=$order";
   query_posts($query);
}
