   Thank you for this helpful tutorial. I do follow along and have my custom archive page up. However, I still get the default WP archive under my custom settings. Could you please have a look and tell me what have I done wrong?

   Thanks for your kind reply.

   I wonder if anyone can help?
   hopefully someone might be able to help with an unusual problem that I have noticed – and it appears to have been occurring since Nov 2017 or before…
   For example…
   this url has been generated/created and I don’t know how or why… it seems that with two categories if I take a ‘whole’ url and copy and paste that after the category part only url then it will resolve… (and has been indexed!)

   ie

   I think this has only happened with (archive) pages…

   To make matters worse these urls have been indexed by Google. I don’t know if a plugin has caused this or something else…

   Note the single ‘/’ in the second part of the url…

   Dear Sir,

   How to customize the look of default archive page. I want to add 2 sidebars instead of 1 sidebar. I am talking about this page https://www.wpbeginner.com/2017/06/

   Thanks

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     Hi Subhash,

     For that you’ll need to edit your theme’s date.php or archive.php template files and call your sidebars in the template file.

   Wonderful tutorial! Thanks so much.

   Quick, I hope, question: I used your instructions for adding “Adding a List of all Categories.” How can I get my list itself to show justified inside the space, instead of left aligned. Thanks for any help.

   Hi !

   I’m preparing a news site with WP theme but I have a GREAT question about archives, maybe you’d be able to give me your opinion thanks to your experience.
   The site must give a new version everyday (relating to the paper edition) and offer an archive page which allows to find the old editions as it was published the day ‘d’. Plugins in WP allow only to have articles by date, so we have a list of the old artilces for a specific date but not the whole edition (a complete copy of the site as it was published at a ‘d’ date). Do you know any plugin for WP to ‘make a copy’ of a site so it’d be possible to link every ‘copy-date’ with a date in the calendar table? or an archive plugin to have automaticly the old editions ? Is it possible to have a folder (in the WP repertory) which contains all the articles of an edition ? so I can link each folder to a date in my calendar table ?
   – Do you have in your favorite lists a good WP theme for newspaper ?
   Thanks in advance !

   Upload the page-archive.php in your WordPress themes folder, and you have created an Archives page template.

   I am having difficulty with this part. How do I upload the page-archive,php in the wordpress themes folder?

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     You can do that using an FTP Client. Your WordPress hosting provider will provide you login details.

     Once connected to your site using FTP, you need to visit /wp-content/themes/ folder. There you need to open your theme folder and upload the file from your computer. See our guide on how to use FTP to upload files to WordPress.

    Hi, is there a way just to list certain categories i.e. exclude some categories from the list?
    Thank you.

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      yes you can use wp_list_categories function like this.

      <ul>
      <?php wp_list_categories('exclude=4,7&title_li='); ?>
      </ul>

    Hello,

    I have registered different CPT.

    I have created a page template which list posts for a given CPT.

    I have put a query (query_posts(‘posts_per_page=-1&post_type=my_cpt_one’); before the loop.

    Than I have selected the page template when creating the page archive of the given CPT.

    How to use the same page template for each CPT?

    For example, I want three page archive named “my cpt one”, ‘my cpt two”, “my cpt three” which calls the same page template.

    Of course, i could use three page templates, but I’m looking for a way to use only one page template.

    My problem is to set in the query the post type slug.

    Is that possible?

    Cheers.

    Thanks so much! This has helped a lot in creating a custom Archives page for my website.

    Responder

15. WPBeginner Staff

    That’s because template tag wp_list_categories generates a bulleted list of your categories by default. Child categories are displayed indented under their parent categories. You can use
    &lt?php wp_list_categories('title_li=&style=none'); ?> to display your categories with line breaks.

    I am looking high and low for my themes folder… I know a
    little more than basic for coding, but working with Wordpress has been
    difficult for me trying to find everything. Maybe it is not compatible with
    what I have.

    I am trying to have a page on my blog for a list of Archived
    blog posts that looks like this: https://www.wpbeginner.com/archives/ with year,
    month, and categories. I have a lot of posts. I tried the plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/archives/
    for Archives and created a page and added [archives] and all I got was a whole
    list of all my blog post titles. It was long.

    I found this post https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-create-an-archives-page-in-wordpress/
    but I cannot locate a themes folder in wordpress. Maybe I have the wrong set
    up?

    I am hosted with one of the outside Wordpress recommended
    hosts using Wordpress for my blog. My theme is Twenty Ten.

    If someone could help me get the result I am looking for,
    that would help me a lot. Thanks!

      Your code was stripped by WordPress comments. This snippet should work:

      <?php
       $args = array(
          'smallest'                  => 8, 
          'largest'                   => 22,
          'separator'                 => ','
      );  
      wp_tag_cloud($args); 
      ?>

    Hello guys,
    First of all, thanks for this amazing website. I have used this post to create the archive but since yesterday the archive page is no longer working. I have not changed the code and now the only thing I see is By date. after that, I cannot see anything, not even the sidebar or the footer.
    My template is running locally as I am building it. Any idea what could have caused that?

    thanks

    • WPBeginner Support

      seems like a coding error in your template is breaking the template right after it displays your archives by date.

    I copied your given code but my site is not showing any kind of archives. Your code has an error. 0n line # 16 you are closing ?>php then starting html, which will simply print html on page. I activated plugin, corrected the code but still my page is empty. Let me correct, thanks.

        • WPBeginner Support

          Meki, we are sorry but we are unable to understand the issue you are facing. As for page.php file you may be using a Theme Framework so your theme may not show a page.php file. Please contact your theme author and ask them which file you should use as the base for your custom page templates.

33. Kelly

    Great tutorial. Could you clarify something before I begin. I’m using a child theme. Should I add the page-archive.php file within the folder of the actual “theme files” or should I place it within the child-theme-folder? Likewise….Now we need to style this list, make it appear inline and improve their look. Add this to your theme’s style.css file. I’m going to assume I can add this within my child-theme as custom css; is that the correct approach?

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Yes this is the correct approach.

      It depends on where you copy pasted your CSS.

    i see you are using the_content in the loop, but when you click on a month and see the posts, it is only showing a snippet. Is that controlled via another custom function? Could I instead use the_excerpt?

    TIA, very useful post

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      the_excerpt will show a short snippet of the posts. the_content is used to display full posts. See this guide Full Post vs Summary (Excerpt) in WordPress Archive pages.

    I found it too difficult to add to a Woo Theme. The Woo Framework page.php is too complex to work out where the additional Compact Archives code goes. It doesn’t have a nice commented slot as does the sample in the example.
