    Hi,
    for styling reasons, I need to create an index number related to the search query’s current post.
    How can I associate this numer as an $index var to the current post’s styling on the archive page?
    Just a code sample may be ok.

    Sample of the query I’m using in other templates and that must be reused for styling the sf_query resuslt:

    `<?php while ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post();
    $index = $wp_query->current_post + 1; ?>
    section:nth-child(<?php echo $index; ?>) > .category {
    background:url(‘<?php the_post_thumbnail_url(‘large’); ?>’);
    box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 400px 110px rgba(0, 0, 0, .7);
    }
    <?php endwhile; ?>

    I need to understand a bit better.

    Are you simply wanting to add 1 to a class in the first post, 2 to the next post, etc.

    all you would do is set a custom variable before the ‘while’ starts to = 1, e.g.:

    $my_post_index = 1;

    And echo that in the code. Just before the endwhile, you increment this by one, e.g.:

    $my_post_index++;

    Is this what you wanted to do?
