Why you didn't put the wp_reset_postdata(); after your loop? But on the other article you have http://www.carriedils.com/custom-page-template-genesis/ you included it when you create a page template

Hi, I´ve seen your work at http://www.carriedils.com/, congratulations. I´ve tried to create an Archive Template for a Custom Post Type following your post, but I can´t do it.
I just want an Archive Template without any special thing: Just to show in a page from this template the posts from that CPT, like a blog Page, not grid, not special layout, just like a blog Page shows the posts. I´ve tried to get it in all the ways, but I can´t do it.
I pray that you can help to me, if you can tell me how must I write my archive.php content for my cpt, and then create a page with that template for just to show the posts that I´ve entered in this CPT.
Can you help me please?
Thank you very much. (and sorry for my English. And, by the way, beautifull smile)

Sorry, another thing
I´ve done this archive.php, and the page, but I can´t get show just the excerpt, and that the title link to the single post, and I wish it to show the "read more...", the autor, the date, well, as I´ve told to you, just like a blog page.

Is this:

'; echo '

'. get_the_title() .'

'; echo '

' . get_the_content() ; $args = array( 'post_type' => 'consulta', // enter your custom post type 'orderby' => 'menu_order', 'order' => 'ASC', 'posts_per_page'=> '10', // overrides posts per page in theme settings ); $loop = new WP_Query( $args ); if( $loop->have_posts() ): ``` while( $loop->have_posts() ): $loop->the_post(); global $post; echo '

'; echo '

' . get_the_title() . '

'; echo '

' . get_the_content() . '

'; echo '

'; echo '

'; ``` endwhile; endif; } genesis();
