I’ll build this as a reusable content-none.php template part for your RX theme: safe escaping, search-specific suggestions, category/tag/archive context, optional search form, popular/recent posts fallback, sitemap-style links, and schema-friendly markup.
Below is an advanced, feature-rich inc/template-parts/content-none.php file for your RX Theme.
It is designed for cases like: no search results, empty category/tag/archive, empty blog, 404-style fallback inside loops, and helpful navigation for users.
Create this file:
mkdir -p inc/template-parts
touch inc/template-parts/content-none.phpThen paste this code inside:
<?php
/**
* Template part for displaying a message when posts are not found.
*
* File: inc/template-parts/content-none.php
*
* Used when:
* - No posts are found in search results.
* - No posts exist in archive/category/tag pages.
* - The site has no published posts yet.
* - A loop returns empty results.
*
* @package RX_Theme

}Use it inside your theme templates like this:
<?php get_template_part( 'inc/template-parts/content', 'none' ); ?>Example inside index.php, archive.php, search.php, or custom loop:
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php
while ( have_posts() ) :
the_post();
get_template_part( 'inc/template-parts/content', get_post_type() );
endwhile;
?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'inc/template-parts/content', 'none' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>You can control features from functions.php like this:
<?php
/**
* RX Theme content-none controls.
*/
add_filter( 'rx_content_none_recent_posts_count', function () {
return 8;
} );
add_filter( 'rx_content_none_categories_count', function () {
return 10;
} );
add_filter( 'rx_content_none_tags_count', function () {
return 16;
} );
add_filter( 'rx_content_none_show_archives', function () {
return true;
} );
add_filter( 'rx_content_none_show_admin_help', function () {
return current_user_can( 'manage_options' );
} );This file is now much more than a simple “nothing found” message. It becomes a helpful recovery page for visitors, SEO-friendly with schema, safe with escaping, and useful for admins while building the RX theme.
