Images in post titles for different categories.

[krystyn]

The site is here.

When you click on a link to the category, for example, http://www.sweetbeanhome.com/category/green-home/ you'll see the correct image for that category.

However when you click on a specific post in that category, for example: http://www.sweetbeanhome.com/green-home-test-post/, it uses the default image.

I've been starring and playing with the code and I can't figure out what I've got wrong. Any suggestions? It's also displaying okay on the home page. Here's a snippet:

/*Green home*/
.home #content .category-green-home h2 {
background: #ffffff url(http://www.sweetbeanhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/green-house-post.jpg) no-repeat left;
border-bottom: 1px solid #d597bf;
height: 34px;
/*margin: 0 0 10px -30px;*/
padding: 13px 0 0 55px;
}

.page .category-green-home h1,
.post .category-green-home h1,
.archive .category-green-home h2 {
background: #ffffff url(http://www.sweetbeanhome.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/green-house-post.jpg) no-repeat left;
border-bottom: 1px solid #d597bf;
height: 34px;
/*margin: 0 0 10px -30px;*/
padding: 13px 0 0 55px;
}

I don't think you can use CSS to display a different header image for posts in a category. Maybe wrong.

What you can do is use PHP code with a conditional tag for in_category()

Or you can use a plugin named wp display header. Its a well coded plugin authored by a Theme Wrangler at Automattic, Core Contributor to WordPress 3.4/3.5, Member of the WordPress Theme Review Team.

Hmmm..okay, thanks!

It's strange it works on category pages and the home pages, but it defaults to only one on a post page.

What you want to to do is display the same image for category archives on all posts in that same category?

Yes, same on category archives (which I have) as well as on individual posts, which is defaulting to the main one.

All you need to do is use the right classes for single posts in a specific category but i don't think this is possible as i tested over a dozen different options recently and did ask that question at the end of the post.

I know its easily done using PHP or a plugin.

Do you know which classes to use for single posts in a category?

I would use is_single() for the post, but I'm not sure how to incorporate the in_category() part with it.

I looked at the plugin, too and that should work. I guess I wanted to figure out the php part.

[Brad Dalton]

I think you may want to try out the plugin.

Here's some PHP code you can modify to suit your needs

I think its best to use the same method. I.E. All CSS or all PHP code rather than CSS and PHP.
