WordPress: Attempt to assign property “post_content” on null

October 14, 2023   |   Web Dev

I’ve hit this error a few times. The issue is with the wp_posts table, where for some reason when exporting/importing the database/table causes some issue with multiple posts having the same IDs for multiple posts. To resolve, re-import the database, or possibly delete out all of the rows that have duplicate post Ids.

Wordpress Set Image Upload Size There are four sizes of images that get created in wordpress when an admin user uploads an image to the media section. You can add more though.

Basically the newly created image will fit within a box of those dimensions.

May 25, 2022   |   Web Dev

I had created a post type for news articles. Unfortunately, when categorizing the pages, and trying to view the category from the front end, those posts weren’t appearing.   Apparently that doesn’t work for cusotm post types by default.
