Clean Archives Reloaded
What Exactly Does This Plugin Do?
It creates a pretty list of all of the posts that you’ve made to your blog. To see an example, check out my archives page. Note that the image located there that shows the post times of recent posts is generated by a seperate plugin.

Credits / History:
This plugin is based on a concept (it no longer shares any common code) by Sebastian Schmieg for the archive page of his “Blix” theme. His code was later converted to a plugin by Shawn Grimes.
The drawback of both of those versions though was the sheer number of queries required (around 1 per month + 2 per post — it added up quick). So, I decided to make my own version which cached the output so that it was only regenerated when needed and otherwise just pulled with 1 query from the database. I was also given the idea by Chris O’Rourke to use Javascript to make the months collapsible as many people’s archives pages were getting rather long.
All of that was then replaced by the current version which uses WordPress functions and internal WordPress caching techniques to make only one query per page period.


wow this plugin is cool! i just installed it. it works great! thanks a lot!
one thing though, the number of comments for my recent post, isn’t updated? it still says 6, when it should say 11. why is that?
Oh, I forgot about making it update when there’s a new comment. Whoops!
Thanks. I’ll release an update shortly. :)
sweeeeet
Okay, updated. :)
(Sorry it took so long, I got distracted.)
this is an amazing plug-in. im now using it in my archives page. im wondering, though, if there’s a way we could tweak it to show only the archives of the posts of any particular author. im running a multi-author blog and it might be cool if readers would be able to click on a link to an author’s page, then that page includes that author’s lineup of posts, presented in the same way (collapsible by month).
is this doable?
thanks!
It wouldn’t be hard to change the code to make it always display a certain author, but to make it display multiple versions would require major recoding due to the caching featured in this plugin. It’d have to use multiple caches or whatever.
Oh, forgot to mention — what you’re talking about would be much easier with the original version. Just add a parameter for the author and then add moo.fx. Not too hard, assuming you can code. If not, I’d be willing to do it, but not for free of course (hey, gotta make a living and my time is important to me). ;)
I just installed Clean Archives Reloaded and it works like a charm, thanks a whole banch !

No problem. However, I notice you’re using it in a different language. I’ll make sure it’s translatable in the next version. :)
I have a problem using your plugin, and also I had using the original version of clean-archives. The plugin shows the archives without problems but the links are broken, i do not know the reason. Someone has an idea?
my archive page: http://blog.halain.net/archivo/
Weird, for some reason the
href=""bit is missing from your page. I’ll look into it and try and figure out why it’s doing that.And I’m not surprised that if it was broken in the original version that it’s broken in my version. I didn’t modify any of that part. ;)
Hello, I love the Clean Archives! I installed it on a test site I’m working on and put it in the right sidebar…not sure if it is where I placed it or not (PHP and such isn’t my strongsuit), but the links are not working correctly. The posts load into the page okay so it is functioning, but the sidebar list is funky.

If you click on the months and expand/collapse links you’ll see what I mean. The month titles don’t match up with what they expand/collapse and some of the individual post links will just disappear altogether. SOME of the months won’t even collapse all the way. Help please! :)
Weird.
The only thing I can think of is that perhaps the code errors elsewhere on your page are causing the problem.
Great, great plugin. Thanks!! :) It really is fantastic!!
Can a future release address the problem that exists for future-dated posts? If I have a future-dated post that I want to be published at some point in the future, the archive page already shows it. Maybe the plugin could check the date and only return pages dated eariler than the current time/date.
Just a thought, since I have a post that isn’t supposed to show up until Sunday (and indeed, on my main WP page, it doesn’t), but it is showing up in the archive list already.
Thanks for a wonderful plugin!!
Hmm, very weird. I tested for that (I made a post in 2010) and I’m pretty sure it didn’t show up on my local test install.
It must be a bug or something. I’ll look into it in a couple days once I’m back up and running (I recently formatted and I’m still installing things).
The plugin is awesome and extremely practical! Works perfectly!
Thanks!
Would it be possible to somehow add in some kind of call function so that it only displays posts within a certain category?
I changed the permalink style on my blog.
Previous format:
http://www.gallireport.com/2006/06/29/file-slug/
New format:
http://www.gallireport.com/file-slug/
After changing, I “updated the archive structure” in the admin interface.
Everything works well except for clean archives reloaded.
If I use the standard archive, it correctly archives my posts using the new structure.
But clean archives reloaded is still using the old structure — so when I click on a story in the archive list, the page doesn’t get found because it still contains the date elements in the path.
I went into the WP database and removed references to the date elements in individual post fields; no affect on clean archives reloaded.
How can I refresh clean archives reloaded so that it displays the new, correct file paths in the archive list that it generates?
Best wishes

Found a fix, and possibly the problem.
From reading trouble posts at Wordpress.org, it seems that there may be a glitch in the way that WP caches its admin pages. Or maybe not.
In any event, I found that if I deleted the “trigger” code from the page on which my archive was to appear [

I’ve been working on a new version of the plugin. I’ll add in the ability to force a refresh of the cache which will should fix your issue (since the whole content of the archives display, including the URLs, is cached). :)
[Comment ID #9032 Will Be Quoted Here]
I’ll consider it. It’s a lot, lot harder than just adding a line or two of code, not to mention that this plugin is designed for only one cache rather than a cache per category, author, etc.
Thanks for the excellent clean archives plug in. I was wondering if it is possible to apply a similar method for the categories section.
I have made a new archives page on my blog which lists both the archives and categories. I changed the default archives view with the plugin and it works great. However if i could get the categories section to work in a similar manner it would be great.
Any ideas??
Thanks
Mmm, an interesting idea. I’ll include it in the next release of the plugin. :)
Another great plugin man.
Can google crawl this easily even though the previous months are collapsed?
View the page’s source – it’s all there. It’s just hidden from displaying in the browser via Javascript. No AJAX or anything like that. ;)
Great plugin, really enjoy how it looks and functions. I’m crossing my fingers for a category feature in a future release. Thanks!
I installed the plugin and it works great. Thanks!
I have a question, though. I have a huge blank space between the text that gets echoed (Here’s my # posts…) and the beginning of the archives list. Is there a way to get rid of that space? It seems to be there to allow for the post time graph, but I don’t want to use that.
No, the plugin doesn’t do anything like that. Judging by your page’s source (I managed to find the URL to your archives page by guessing), you’re using a PHP execution plugin, correct?
Well because of that, WordPress is adding a bunch of line breaks (
<br />) and such where they shouldn’t be, i.e. have each Javascript file call. Just check out the page’s HTML to see for yourself.I hadn’t actually tested this plugin with that type of plugin, so it didn’t occur to me that WordPress would auto-
<p>and<br />the output since it’s becomes part of the post’s contents when you do that.I guess to combat that, I’ll need to output all of the plugin on the same line or something.
Meanwhile though, just use a Page Template as covered in this plugin’s readme. It’s pretty easy to do (just add this plugin’s function after
the_content();and you’re good to go). :)Have a look at my archive page: http://nordoelum.com/vault/
How to shrink that awefull gap?
Birger :)
Birger: I just followed Viper’s instructions (in the comment above yours) to create a Page Template instead of using the runPHP plugin, and they worked pefectly. I know nothing about PHP, which proves that those instructions will work for just about anyone. :)
Great plugin. Is there a way to not show the nimber of comments for each post? Ideally, I’d like to show the number of posts for the month, but not number of comments. Cheers.

Okay, thank you for the reply :D
One suggestion, could you compile an own version of the blogtimes? I have tryed the Blogtimes with Image, but that one is made for 1.5 and crashes with 2.0.
Birger :)
Ed1t: The page template solution worked :D Thanks..
Two months ago I tried to make this plugin work without results. Now, after redesign the theme of the web I noticed that still did not work, so i started to think that could be a problem with the PHP parser, and i was correct. After recode a template instead of using a parser with the function on it, all is working perfect. I hope this will be usefull for someone else, the PHP parser was “RunPHP”.
You can see the results and the new style on: http://www.nekonoyume.com
Great plugin (at last it works for me) :)
hi there, the plugin is great! one thing though… is there are way to show the list with the current month not expanded. Right now, it defaults to the current month and all my posts being shown.

perfect! thanks for the quick response. As a suggestion, maybe in the next release, you can make a +/- sign (next to each month so that the user can expand or unexpand the list. My archive page is at http://theflogs.mjmnet.com/archives. Thanks once again for making this plugin possible.

I’m sorry, but that won’t be happening. I’m currently using moo.fx’s accordion function and that only allows for one item to be expanded at a time. I could switch to just an independent expand/collapse system, but I really prefer the accordion style and since I mostly made this plugin for my own uses and released it only for fun, I get the final say in what it does. ;)
any SEO links for the archives ?

The plugin uses whatever format you have chosen for post links, so yes, if you have permalinks on, then this plugin will use them.
Thanx for a cool plugin, i’m using it at my site.
I have the plugin running and it works great on FF and IE, however I’ve been told (since I don’t have a mac) that in Safari whenever the links are moused over they completely disappear. I don’t know how to really debug the problem because I don’t have Safari and I’m not that experienced at JavaScript, but I thought I’d ask you for some help.
You can check out the page here: http://www.firstshowing.net/archive/ and see if there are any problems with the JS or anything. Thanks!
I don’t have Safari either and I didn’t write the Javascript. It’s just a very popular free package that’s available out the web and I’d assume it’d work with all browsers. :/
I’m using Shawn Grimes’s clean archives now,and test this plugin,It’s fine.
But still one question: these is too many (>100) links in the archives page,according google,this is not a good choice for SEO.
Is there any way to split into multi pages? for example , 3 month/page?

It needs to be an actual WordPress page. This plugin won’t work outside of WordPress, let alone in an HTML document.
Just enable permalinks like I have done so you don’t see the page ID in the URL.

I don’t believe I can do that with the Javascript and have it work properly and I’m not good enough with Javascript to code my own stuff.
There’s this strange issue on my blog… Always and ONLY for the latest entry, the number of comments displayed (in brackets) is always LESS 1 than the actual number. Meaning, there’s supposed to be 8 comments for a post (it appears correctly everywhere except the archives page… Instead (7) will show up for the latest entry.
The weird thing is, if I write another entry after that, then the CORRECT number of comments will appear for that previous entry that was experiencing the LESS 1 error.
This problem is intermittent too – it seems. Sometimes it happens, sometimes not. Right now, it’s happening on my blog.
Weird, really weird.
I plan on reworking this plugin, but I’m busy with other plugins at the moment, so you and it will have to wait. :(
Thanks for answering. Yes, it is weird… Briefly this morning, it was functioning correctly, meaning I had 8 comments for the latest entry and 8 were showing (as opposed to yesterday – incorrect 7 appeared). 5 minutes ago, I just approved 4 more NEW COMMENTS… so that should now be 12. 12 appears correctly everywhere (including, of course the database)… everywhere exept the archives page.
What’s still showing up? 8! The issue is sort of self-correcting, I believe… if I write a new entry.
OK, I shall go away now. Bye. :)
Oh, you approved comments? I don’t believe I have a hook that tells the plugin to refresh it’s cache when you approve a comment.
Another thing I need to fix…
Hi
Actually, I think that the plugin showing also pages in WP 2.1 is not a bug, but a nice possibility.
Would it be possible to keep it as an option, instead of “fixing that bug”?
Thanks.
Indeed it would be great to have multilingual support in your plugin.
I tried so far to apply a Polyglot filter to clean_archives_reloaded() without success.
Any suggestions in the meantime?
Thanks a lot.
Hmm, very weird. I tested for that (I made a post in 2010) and I’m pretty sure it didn’t show up on my local test install.
It must be a bug or something. I’ll look into it in a couple days once I’m back up and running (I recently formatted and I’m still installing things).
Future posts aren’t shown.
Hi,
I have recently installed your archive plug-in on my new website (which I do not wish to publish here for launch reasons), but my problem is that the archives display Pages.
What confuses me is that I have been using your plugin on my old website without this problem for some time now.
Any ideas? Thankyou.

Your old site used WordPress 2.0.x probably while your new one uses v2.1. 2.1 changes the way Pages are stored in the database and as a result, this plugin doesn’t successfully exclude them.
This is covered right below the download link. ;)
Looking forward to version that corrects for v2.1 chanage in Pages. Also, why do some posts, prior to a certain date, have no comments shown, but the other have a (0) at the end? (E-mail me if you need the link.) How do I fix this? Thanks!
I figured out the comments questions, should have checked the message board first. Still eagerly awaiting your fix to preclude the pages from the archive due to WP2.1.
My problem with this plugin right now is its showing posts that I have placed in private then republished as public multiply times. Also when I edit a certain post it shows it again another time in the archives
Hi there … I’ve been waiting patiently :) Any update yet on the plugin to exclude the pages in WP v2.2? My photoblog archive looks kinda odd with them in ;)
Ok, if I change [post_status = 'publish'] at lines 30, 94 and 106 to [post_status = 'publish' AND post_type='post'] it excludes the pages. (Picked up from http://gqshen.com/blog/archive/196). I don’t know much about php so I’m hoping that I haven’t broken anything with this edit.
I was so glad to find this plugin, as I’ve got more than 1,500 posts and the default listing was really not useful. So many thanks. Now, maybe this is me being dense, but when I click on a category link, I just end up on the archive page (I did make a new archive page, as you suggested). Did I miss somethign somewhere?
The layout with your plugin is so good that I’m going to sacrifice the category archive for the moment. But I hope there’s some way for me to fix whatever I messed up. Thanks for whatever help you can provide.
Rosina:
A) Please use my support forums next time. ;)
B) Not much I can do without a link to the page where the issue is occurring.

So here’s a link. This should take you to the category archive for cat no. 122, but instead it takes you to the standard month-by-month category:
http://rosinalippi.com/weblog/?cat=122
Thanks again for your help.
That’s because this plugin doesn’t currently support category archives. It will only do the output that you are seeing, nothing more, at least at this time.
Aha. Okay. If I can find another plugin that handles categories alone, would that interfere with your one?
Nope.
It could be easily updated for WP 2.1 and higher – I just installed it on a 2.3
The only thing you have to do to stop Pages from showing up: wherever you have the post_status=’publish’ just add this AND post_type=’post’.
It’s in 3 places only :)
Moshu – I touched on that 9 posts up – good to have your validation though as I’m carp at code ;)
maybe with TAB face to switch cat lists like this Archives is perfect.

Interesting you made the jump to jQuery- personally I much prefer MooTools; I think the documentation is way better (to be fair jQuery’s documentation is pretty awful) and the layout of the functions is just a lot more logical. Maybe less intuitive, but a lot more sensible.
I guess with apple.com and bbc.co.uk using jQuery it may become the new VHS to mootools’ Betamax; I’m tearing my hair out at the moment with a blog design where all the plugins use jQuery, but it’s just plain incompatible with the template stuff I’ve written in Moo.fx.
*Sigh*

Honestly, it came down to that WordPress uses jQuery, so that means I don’t have to bundle a Javascript package in the download and keep it up to date. WordPress will do that for me. I believe it’s also a smaller filesize than MooTools with the Accordion plugin in it.
Either way, the Javascript required on my part was only a couple lines of code, so *shrug*.
EDIT: You could also go into my plugin and disable the JS via the option and then use MooTools on your own if you wanted to. My plugin just outputs a standard nested unordered list and then a little JS in the header which modifies it based on CSS classes. The two parts of the plugin are entirely separated.
This plug-in is awesome! My WordPress had an urge for the function that this plug-in provides. Thank you!
Could you make it possible to list “year” as the parent-category to “month”?

No, probably not. I don’t see the need personally. You’d end up with an incredibly short list (as most blogs aren’t over a couple years old) and just would require more clicking as you’d have to expand year then month. I mean, just look at my blog. It’d been going for years on end now and all it only has like 20-30 months listed out.
However, if you’re decent with PHP, it’d be really easy to write your own little plugin that piggybacked on mine that did it though (just use the internal data array). I’ll even play fix up my plugin a little to better support expanding in a future version. :)
Firstly, awesome plug-in, works amazingly.
Now I wanted to ask a few questions.
1) Since it uses Javascript to generat the links, is it Google friendly? I am asking this because I have blocked all bots from accessing my archives pages to avoid content duplication, so will bots be able to see all the links on this page and use these links to crawl other pages?
2) Can I change the drop down thing to static links to archive pages somehow?
3) Can I remove the comment count somehow?
And yes, can I change the order of posts to reverse chronological order too?
And can I increase the spacing somehow in between the listings? It looks quite squeezed in currently.
Sorry for comment spamming, a last question. The cursor changes to the ‘resize’ one when hovered over the links for expansion. Can this be changed to the default for all links (the hand cursor)?
Apoorv Khatreja on March 22nd, 2008 at 12:51 PM wrote:

If it’s your server which you have control over, just up that value to something bigger. Unless you have a server with like 128MB of RAM, it shouldn’t be a problem.
If you can’t change that value, then deactivate all other plugins and see if it still does it (other plugins may be contributing to the RAM usage and CAR may just be the straw breaking the camel’s back). If it does still do it, then it’s because CAR loads all of your posts into a PHP array and then outputs them (one MySQL query rather than hundreds or thousands like previous versions). I don’t get how that would be even CLOSE to 64MB of RAM, but if it’s still doing it when just my plugin is activated, then I guess I gotta work out some other less RAM intensive solution.
I’m having the same problem Diwaker’s having using WP 2.5. I’ve deactivated the plugin for the moment, but plan on taking a crack at fixing this tonight. I wonder how common this is with the new WP?

The problem comes about because I loop through an array of ALL posts on your blog and sort them into another array that’s in the format of year/month/day. If you have a ton of posts, that seems to start using a lot of memory.
The problem has never occurred for me though as I have only a couple hundred posts on both my installs and a large memory limit.
Hey, great plugin that does exactly what I want but… when I mouse-over the months I get a weird icon that’s a double-ended arrow pointing up and down. That’s in Firefox 2 and IE 7. Do you know how I change it to the hand that’s there for the post titles?

It’s intended. The month titles aren’t links — they’re just text, so I figured a better cursor than just “I” thingy would be best. I settled on vertical resize as it’s for expanding and collapsing rather than a link (hand).
You of course are welcome to change it. I’d suggest doing it via your theme’s style.css and adding an “!important” rather than editing the plugin though (so it’s not undone when I release a new version).
Hi, great plugin, but was wondering when you would be coming out with the new version that uses less memory? My PHP dies also and there’s really nothing else I can up! Thanks a lot!

We use the plugin nicely on our blog (thanks).
Consider the option of not including the jquery library and js functions if the hide/show functionality is not desired. It will decrease page load times (and make me happy, so I don’t have to go mod your plugin). :) Tnx

Even if it’s disabled via the options page, it can still be enabled on a case-by-case basis via the shortcode, i.e.
[cleanarchivesreloaded usejs="1"]. That was my basis for continuing to load it. There’s also no easy way when in the<head>to determine if the upcoming posts will want to display the archives or not which is why it’s on all pages.No need to edit my plugin though to stop it from loading as I use the script API. Stick this bit of code in your theme’s
functions.php(just make one if you don’t have one) and you’ll be good to go:if ( !is_admin() ) { wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' ); }This of course can cause problems if anything else is expecting jQuery to be there, but if not you should be good. :)

Is it possible to only load the required script needed to run clean archives reloaded on the actual archives page, instead of on every page/post of the site?
Other than that it works great.

Okay, just released a new version. It does the dynamic JS loading as it’s been requested multiple times. It’s enabled by default, but you can disable the dynamic loading via the settings page. You will need to do this if you use CAR in your sidebar.
Excellent. It works great.
The only problem that I saw is when you update the settings for Clean Archives Reloaded it gives a “Cannot load clean-archives-reloaded.” error message. It’s running perfectly, even seems to save the changes so I just ignore it :-)
Thanks for the great plugin.

Hi, 3.1.1 upgrade worked perfectly, thanks!
One minor thing I’ve noticed with this plugin, is that when you first load the archive page, the JavaScript link is “Expand All”, but everything is already expanded. This means that you must click on it once (no effect) to get it to change to “Collapse All” and then click it again to collapse. Do others have this issue or is it my installation?
Thanks

Is it possible to truncate the title of the article when it is displayed on the sidebar?
My problem is I have a few articles with very long titles and it absolutely destroys my theme by not truncating.
Also, it may be my theme, but I am ending up with breaks between article listings when displayed on a page. Does this plugin do this by default? If not I’m curious where you would suggest I look in my theme template to solve this issue. I’m using the revolution pro theme.

<head>:<?php wp_head(); ?>Thanks Viper for your reply!
The first thing I checked before commenting here was the “wp_head” hook (I had to do a quick edit here ;)
It’s there. I have been using your plugin for quite som time now, I really don’t know what happened. I may try to go back to your earlier version later on today.
If that solves my problem I let you know…
I tried to edit my post to tell you that I have checked the “wp_head” hook. It’s there…
The dynamic JS loader which makes my plugin only load the Javascript when the archive is actually being displayed appears to not be working with your theme.

That did the trick :)

Thanks! This is great – I have tried so many plugins for a simple archive list but yours was the only one that worked! Thanks!
I am currently using a theme that has a Featured Post on the home page. This featured section creates an archive based on the category for this featured post. I noticed that when using this plugin, it is not based on categories but by month – which is great. However, the clean archives cannot pull in my featured category posts in the list of archives. All of my posts for this particular category do not show up in the archives. Is there something that I can do to make it show all of the posts and not exclude this category?
I am not even sure as to why it is excluding this category of posts in the first place, but it would be nice to have it include all of my posts.
You can view this page (Archives) at http://breakfastafterten.com/hippocampus
You can also see that my Featured section on my home page has a link to the featured archives, which include the posts that the plugin is not bringing in.
You will notice that the clean archives plugin is not showing all of my posts. I currently have the archives page using a template that will include archives by category and archives by month, but I absolutely love the way that this plugin shows each post within the month. I dont want to have to include the “archives by category” and “archives by month” section. I just want the plugin to pull in all of my posts.
Chelcy on August 31st, 2008 at 9:25 AM wrote:
Can you link me to the plugin or theme responsible for the feature?
My plugin literally just gets “all posts” via the WordPress API, so if your featured posts aren’t showing up, then they must have like a custom post type or something.

KC on September 7th, 2008 at 6:34 PM wrote:
Hmm, I don’t think so. Do you have a ton of posts and are they all big and long?
My plugin fetched all posts, loads them into a variable, and then loops through them and outputs them. This can be memory intensive.
I may have to resort to just manually querying or something to ensure the memory usage stays low.
As a long-time blogger I’m up to almost 1200 posts. Some are long (though my average is approx. 150 words per post).
With this plugin, is there way to group posts under one year in a collapsible menu, and then have the monthly posts underneath that? In other words, a two-level menu:
2008
– September
— Post X
— Post Y
– August
— Post Z
…
2007
– December
…

Regarding my previous post, it turns out that there the problem is being caused by another Plugin called “Where Did They Go From Here”. When I disabled that one yours started working fine again.
I can’t get this plugin to work consistently. It was working fine for most of the day then it stopped. I have no idea why but it seems to be incompatible with a lot of other plugins.
Is there a limitation to the number of posts that it can display per month?
Can’t seem to get the bullets to go away, even after getting rid of them in the stylesheet. Any ideas?

It’s just a standard nested unordered list, with CSS classes to make selecting easier. Normal CSS will easily style it.

A template file is included with the plugin. Translate that, then e-mail me the completed file. :)
I like your plugin. It came included with The Stars Theme. When you go to the archives page everything is expanded with a link to EXPAND ALL displaying at top. If you click that everything collapses. But then if you click the month it just expands and collapses automatically. It won’t stay expanded. The example is here:

Thanks for all help.
Hi ..
I installed the plugin but there is this annoying wrap of PRE and CODE around the generated HTML of CAR.
I want to change the CSS, but due to these generated tags, the archives totally alienated from my template…
IS there a way I can change it ?
Many Thanks.

That’s not my plugin’s fault. You likely have those tags in your post contents by accident. Check the HTML view. Another plugin could also possibly be at fault.
Thanks a lot.
Yes , I see that. Actually it is the Wordpress Admin that is doing that … Is there any way that I can call the code in the php through some function and dont have to use the [cleanarchives...] in the Editor ?
Thanks again
Thanks Viper …
It is fixed … I was just being super stupid.
