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.
Hi! Installed the plugin and it works but it doesnt collapse or expand. Any idea why?

Hi… This is an amazing plugin, but can I put it on my sidebar?
It just works on pages (I did’nt tested it on posts), but I wanted a menu on my sidebar like the plugin.

This is a very nice archive page solution — thanks a lot for maintaining this plugin. Two things I’d love to see added:
1. A CSS class for comment counts/post counts. Right now, there is no way to style the counts to be different from the dates.
2. The ability to do an archive listing for only certain categories.
Thanks again!

Hello.
Just installed your plugin via my wordpress plugin install page. Now it’s installed, but exactly how do I access the page, does it have a URL? If so, what would the URL be?
Thanks

Hi,
Just installed your plugin after exploring lots of other archive ones and am very pleased indeed with it. It is clear and neat and efficient. Only thing I would like that it does not do is to view the excerpt of each post when mousing over the title. I tried inserting — title=”‘ . get_the_excerpt( $post->ID ) . ‘” in the html on line 293 but all it shows is the excerpt for the page holding the archives. Is there any way of doing this?
PS If I can get a mouseover to display the excerpt of the post I would like to use the plugin for all my category displays but do not know enough coding to – ‘just edit the plugin’s get_posts() call and add a category parameter.’. Be most grateful if you could describe for me exactly how to do that.

Please post the URL to the Page where you are trying to get the output to occur.
Also make sure to read this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/clean-archives-reloaded/installation/ (the bottom bit)
Sorry for my ignorance, but i installed the plugin. now how do I insert this in a page, is there any shortcode or something.
I am a newbie.

See the bottom. I should make that more obvious.
Hi,
my (strictly private) blog telling stories from our daughter has a long list of categories, referencing the age of our daughter in months (first, second etc.). Now she’s nearly 2 years old and will have a sister soon.
I would like to put all the old pages into an archive like yours but save their respective categories for further reference. How do I get rid of the archived categories in the main category list shown on each screen?
Thanks for your help.
Ralf
Edit: I have excluded several category IDs in my sidebar widget php categories.php code. However, now your plugin also shows only the NOT excluded categories.
After examining this result, I have modified the widget call to a file called categories-list.php (with the exclusions) and a separate categories.php original (with no exclusions). However, the List produced by your plugin is still too short. How do I get separate results: short categories list in my sidebar but full list on my archive page produced by your plugin?
Edit II: Bingo! I have disabled Exclusion Plugins (Simply Exclude/Advanced Category Excluder) and simply excluded the categories as explained in my first edit above. The sidebar widget follows the instructions in categories-list.php and the Clean Archives Reloaded is not controlled by the other plugins mentioned above. Great!
This is driving me nuts. This plugin works great, but I am trying to disable the comment count. I understand that there is not an option to do this, but I am having no luck commenting out the lines I need to in order to get rid of the comment count. I have tried several times, but I only create fatal errors that prevent reactivation fo the plugin. I post the code here that seems to control the comment count. Could you tell me exactly what to comment out? Thanks.
// Unless comments are closed and there are no comments, show the comment count if ( '0' != $atts['commentcount'] && ( 0 != $post->comment_count || 'closed' != $post->comment_status ) && empty($post->post_password) ) $html .= ' (' . $post->comment_count . ')'; $html .= "\n"; } $html .= " \n \n"; } $html .= "\n\n"; return $html; }Just try the option commentcount=”0″ in your page text: Use [cleanarchivesreloaded commentcount="0"].
Leave the source code as it is.
Thanks I edited back the PHP file and used that switch. I must have missed that in the readme file. Is there a simple listing of all the available switches?
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/clean-archives-reloaded/other_notes/
Looks like I forgot to add the “postcount” and “commentcount” parameters to that list though when I added them.
Well a few more tries and I have the comment count off. Below is the line I had to comment out to do it. Did I do it in the best way?
//$html .= ‘ (‘ . $post->comment_count . ‘)’;
I added the code as required and it kills my web page. Example: http://promechanics.com/test-page/
Rest of page works fine. Yes, the plugin has been activated. Could this be a javascript run error or is there something else going on?
The page breaks right where I added the code. whatever it is doing, it is preventing the site from loading the rest of the page code.
Stop editing the PHP file and put it back to how it was before.
So you are saying that one of my PHP calls is incorrect?
I’m saying it looks like a PHP error is occurring with errors set to hidden and that you don’t need to edit a single part of the plugin in order to do what you’re trying to do. There are shortcode parameters to control that, as Ralf pointed out.
Great plugin. Would it be possible to have the months be active links like a conventional archive page?
How would you expand and collapse them then?

Hi, this is what I have in this page
It used to work until lastnight, everything just crashed and displayed as an empty page. I’ve already upgraded to latest version but still same.
Please help.
The web address is http://zincip.biz/archives/
Just to add on. The website is http://www.zincip.biz/archives/
I tried to remove the [cartotalposts] line, still the same, so I tried the other way round (remove [cleanarchivesreloaded]), the page showed There are 958 News;
This means that the [cleanarchivesreloaded] has problems. Is it because there are too many posts?
Any resolution to this?
Please help!
hi???thanks for the update…i really like this plug-in!!! yaatttaaa!!!!
It gives me…
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 289217 bytes) in /home/xxx/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 183
[cartotalposts] works
[cleanarchivesreloaded] works not, because it gives me the fatal error.
Hi Na?ul,
I have the same problem, how do you fixed it?
THANKS!
The only fix is to increase your memory limit:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP
I need to code up an alternate method of querying all of your posts uses less memory at the cost of having to use more database queries.
Nevermind, I fixed it
Thanks for great plugin.
Happy holidays.

Great job with this plugin, It is almost exactly what I am looking for.
I have a question about the source code. I’m not that great with advanced php symantics but Iv’e found the spot I want to edit:
[screwy code removed]
I want to place an echo to call a custom field I have of a post thumbnail in every post. something like:
[screwy code removed]
When I insert my code as it is into the [screwy code removed] it breaks the entire thing. Maybe you could help me get my semantics right? Thanks a ton, and great job on the plug in, its rockin!
oh, that code above didnt come out right after posting. Is it clear what i am trying to accomplish though?
You can wrap your code in [php] or [code] here if you want.
And I do no provide support for modifying my plugins. Look up get_post_meta() on the WordPress.org Codex though. It’ll do what you want when inserted into the proper place in my plugin.
Its totally understandable not to provide support for modifying your plugin. The generosity you have shown by releasing this plugin is more than I could ask for.
Ill place that code there again, just in case you or anyone else can see a quick, no-effort-on-your-part solution:
Thanks again!
Hi,
My CleanArchive got blank also, same like the others, is there any solution for this ?
Thanks
Probably running out of RAM. Increase the amount allocated: http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP
I really need to recode this plugin to provide the option to allow for using a lower-memory (but higher number of queries) option.
Thanks a lot for this.
Yeah, the temporary solution now I have to put
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M');Into wp-config.php
Thanks again.
Cheers,
Raffaell

Nice plugin; I’ve been using it for a year or more. I changed the get_posts call to exclude all categories except one.
Now I’m wondering about running multiple instances of the plugin to have multiple one-category archives. Might there be a way to change the shortcode and th function name and call a second copy of the plugin? A hack, yes…. And/or a possible feature for a future version?
Yes, all that kinda stuff is planned for the future, I just don’t have the time to get it done.
I managed to get a “Smart Archives Reloaded 2″ to show up in Plugins, but the [smartarchivesreloaded2] shortcode doesn’t work, probably due to a conflict with several get post loops on one page, or the cache. Mind if I ask around the WP plugin forums to see if I can get this idea to work?
If anyone is having any luck achieving this functionality (multiple instances of the plugin limited to one category each or something similar with the same end result) please post it here. I am in need of doing the exact same thing, yesterday.
Did you find a solution to running multiple instances of the plugin to have multiple on-category archives? I’m looking to do the same thing!
Any chance of you sharing the ‘get_posts call to exclude all categories except one’? It’d be really helpful! Thanks.
Just exclude all the categories you don’t want, i.e., around line 200:
Brilliant! Thanks very much.
Hi Alex ~ I love your plug-in! However, I am having problems with the comment count on posts that I had imported into my blog. At first I thought it was because WordPress was not counting those comments, either. I fixed that. But they are still not showing in the archives. Here is the link, the number of comments are not showing for posts before May 2009: http://www.gipsylife.com/archives/. Can you help? Thank you, Kerstin
My plugin pulls the comment count from an internal cache that WordPress keeps. How did you import your posts? Perhaps the importer didn’t update the count my plugin uses.
Thanks for replying, Alex.
Phew. I don’t remember. I used the import function in WordPress. I added your plugin AFTER I did the import. And at the time of import WordPress did not count all the comments correctly, I only fixed that recently so that now they are being counted correctly. So what’s my best recourse, import again?
Yeah, I guess so. I dunno for sure. My plugin is just reading the cached comment count out of the database. It doesn’t need to be activated or anything during import.

Hey Viper,

It worked charm, but when i click expand all, suddenly the archives are closed and the javascript is not working perfectly.
How come?
I can’t help you unless you provide a link to the page in question.
Hi Alex, I use CAR on 4 of my own blogs and 3 others I host. The one on the blog linked above stopped displaying the page recently and I tracked it down to the memory_lime of 32M I had set on the server (which I had to do to defeat some runaway spambots). Using define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’); in the wp-config.php file solved the issue.
I’m actually thankful the memory limit reverts to 32M after the PHP page is displayed. I just wish I could figure out how to increase the limit for only the page I’m using the plugin for.
It’s a bit ugly, but I think this is the best way:
That will only increase the limit at yourdomain.com/your-page/
You’re awesome. I thought of doing it in the page template and your suggestion tells me it’s a good thing I waited. I completely forgot about doing it conditionally versus for every page. Duh.
A great thanks for this plugin! It is very user-friendly, neat, and functional to my blogging activities. Been looking for something like this for a long time already!
This plug-in is what my friend is looking for but I can’t seem to get it into the sidebar. It appears in the main body. He wants to duplicate this look: http://hifiheroin.blogspot.com/
He likes how it lists the titles much as your plug in does for easy reference. Also he’s techno illiterate. I see some people are trying to code it to auto insert [cleanarchivesreloaded] which would be best. I’m fairly new to WP and appreciate your help.
My archive list is all smushed together. Anyone have an idea?
My previous problem, because i didn’t use your latest release.
Now, it works like charm.
Many-many thanks…

Easiest way is to just use CSS. Add this to your theme’s
style.css:.car-monthlisting span { display: none; }Hi, thanks for your reply…
that CSS only removes the comment count for each post under the month, but I would like to remove the total number of articles published in each month… can u plz tell me the css code for that? thanks much
Never mind, i just found it
this is the code in case anyone wants it, just add it to your CSS, it will remove the number of posts for each month – thx

Love your plugin. Request: shortcode to remove the day number from in front of each post title
Maybe you found this fix and was just asking for a shortcode but if not… here’s how to remove the day number from in front of the post title:
Open Clean-Archives-Reloaded.php from the plugin editor.
Copy all the code and paste it into Notepad ( I always do this incase I screw something up)
Find this code in the template file:
$html .= ” . mysql2date(‘d’, $post->post_date ) . ‘: ID ) . ‘”>’ . get_the_title( $post->ID ) . ‘‘;
And change it to this:
$html .= ”.’ID ) . ‘”>’ . get_the_title( $post->ID ) . ‘‘;
Hope that helps some people!
Looks like the code didn’t take in the last post: just search for the code below and remove it but make sure you end up with ‘.’ before the href tag.
mysql2date(‘d’, $post->post_date ) .

Hi,
im really excited about this plugin but im having some problems. Right now my archives are stacked together tightly. No indents and no bullets. Will I have to do some work in CSS or am I missing a step?
thank you for your time.
Yep. My plugin doesn’t supply any CSS of it’s own — it relies on your theme to style it (that way it matches).
When I implemented the plugin, it took my styles in Firefox just fine, but not in IE. Why would IE be showing the output in Courier?
Not sure, but my plugin essentially doesn’t apply any CSS. If there’s display issues, then it’s something with your theme’s CSS that relates to standard unordered lists.
Is there any way to keep it collapse by default?
You’d need to edit the plugin’s Javascript and comment out the line that expands the first month.
Viper, what’s the line that expands the first month, please? I can’t find it.
jQuery('.car-collapse').find('.car-monthlisting:first').show();Hi there,
OK, so call me a noob (well I pretty much am), but I need help with installing this plugin. Here’s what I did based on the install guide provieded by geekwithalaptop.com:
1-I used the wordpress auto-installer, and then activated it via the plugins page.
2-Created a new page, named it ‘archives’
3-Using the HTML editor, I pasted into the type area, but nothing showed up when I viewed the page. Same goes for when I used the -code- function.
4-I then tried the ‘Visual’ editing panel, and pasted again. When I viewed the page, all I saw was the text that I pasted:P
@I also see that the link explains:
Also, make sure under ‘Page Template’ you are using ‘Default Template’ as some WordPress themes have an archives template.
However, I did not see this ‘template’ option anywhere.
Appreciate any help, and thanks.
Did you read http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/clean-archives-reloaded/installation/ ? You just need to type this:
