Adding a metabox shortcode "paypal accept payment" in my custom post type back-end

I have created a science journal with annotum theme, now I want users to pay when they publish an article, but I don't have programming skills to do this when they click publish to pay with paypal, so I want to create a meta box in my custom post type: articles that contains a WP Easy Paypal Payment Accept widget in admin area of article post type. In dashboard admin area I have created this widget by this code (with shortcode: `Paypal_payment_accept();) :`                 function wpc_dashboard_widget_function() {         // Entering the text between the quotes         echo Paypal_payment_accept();        }        function wpc_add_dashboard_widgets() {         wp_add_dashboard_widget('wp_dashboard_widget', 'Technical information',        'wpc_dashboard_widget_function');        }        add_action('wp_dashboard_setup', 'wpc_add_dashboard_widgets' );       So the question clearly is: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/akXil.png) ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Ss45L.png)


Admin tabs for custom plugin

So I am new to WordPress plugin development, but I try to learn as fast as possible. Basically, I try to create a tabbed navigation for my custom plugin. What I've done so far, you ask?   * one function for displaying menu in left navbar               function mb_menu_page()     {     add_menu_page('Big Name', 'Big Name', 'edit_posts', 'bigname', 'mb_big_name', false, 1);     add_submenu_page('bigname', 'Link1', 'Link1', 'edit_posts', 'bigname',  'mb_big_name');     add_submenu_page('bigname', 'Link2', 'Link2', 'edit_posts', 'bigname2', 'mb_big_name2');     }        * add action               add_action( 'admin_menu', 'mb_menu_page');   * Two new functions(page content)               mb_big_name() && mb_big_name2() Now, how can I get all links for this menu in order to parse them and create my tabbed navigation? Thank you!


Filter didn't work on content class (hybrid_post_attributes)

I'm developing my new theme using Hybrid core framework and trying to add my class `item` on `hybrid_post_attributes` generated class using filter with this code.               add_filter( 'hybrid_post_attributes', 'my_post_atributes');     function my_post_atributes($attributes){     return  $attributes['class'] = substr_replace($attributes['class'], ' item', -1);     }      I want my 'item' class to be added as the last class from 'hybrid_post_attributes' classes.

'-' . sanitize_html_class( $term->slug, $term->term_id );                 }     }      Did my way of using filter wrong?   Thanks.


Making the 'add to cart' button redirect to PayPal

I want to program the **Add to Cart** button, on a product page, so when the customer press on it, it skips the **Cart** & **Checkout** pages and send him directly to the PayPal payment gateway. Not spending time on the Cart page, nor filling details on the Checkout page.   How can I do this?


Allow front end users to add data to a custom post type

Hay Guys , I'm currently making a plugin so that the administrator can manage "Subscriptions" to the website. I have made a custom post type and activated it within WordPress and only allowed the title field. This works perfectly on the backend, but now i need a way for front end users to add their email address. How would i implement this, i need to add data to the database, i could easily just write some PHP to manually add the data, but does WordPress have any calls so that i can save data to the database?


Query Posts by taxonomy/Taxonomy Child Custom order

This is an ongoing request, trying to do maximize some code to display a list of Accomodation by Country, of a certain Type, and a specific Region. So for example, a list of ALL accommodations in FRANCE, By Hotel Rating (1,2,3,4,5), and then by Region (Paris, Marseille etc...) Listing will be -Hotel 1Star   \--Marseille   \---Hotel 1   \---Hotel 2   \--Paris   \---Hotel 1   \---Hotel 2 -Hotel 2Star   etc.. etc... Each Hotel entry is a custom post called Accomodation I have 3 taxonomies, countries (ie France), accomodation-type (ie Hotel 1 star), region (ie Paris). The listing of accommodations "lives" on a country page, so the value of the country is already know. (ie $termcountry->name) My code is a below:                           $taxonomy2 = 'accomodation-type';             $termsacc = get_terms("accomodation-type",array('orderby' => 'slug', 'order' => 'ASC'));                  foreach ($termsacc as $termaccomodation) {                 $taxonomyregion = 'region';                 $termsreg = get_terms("region",array('orderby' => 'slug', 'order' => 'ASC'));                  foreach ($termsreg as $termregion) {                       $query = array(                   'post_type' => 'accomodation',                   'accomodation-type' =>$termaccomodation->name,                   'country' =>$termcountry->name,                    'orderby' => 'title',                    'order' => 'ASC',                   'posts_per_page' => 48,                                    'tax_query' => array(                   array(                         'taxonomy' => $taxonomyregion,                         'field' => 'slug',                         'terms' => $termregion->name,                         'orderby' => 'title',                          'order' => 'ASC',                         )                       )                        );                      query_posts($query);                       $count = 1; //First we set the count to be zeo                      if(have_posts() ) {                    $termaccomodation->slug = str_replace("%e2%80%98", "", $termaccomodation->slug);                  $termaccomodation->slug = str_replace("%e2%80%99", "", $termaccomodation->slug);                       if($termregion->name=="General"){                   $regionname = "";                  }else{                   $regionname = " - ".$termregion->name;                  }                  $id = '';                  $new_id = ++ $id;                  ?>                   <a name="<?php echo   $new_id."-".$termaccomodation->slug."-".$termregion->slug;?>">

validate a metabox based on the category that is selected

Ok Let's say I have 2 Categories. If a user select category A, they have to fill in metabox A and similarly for category B, it's metabox B. So my question is, I want to do a validate check, whereby if the user has checked category A, then it is only metabox A that has been filled in, and the same applies for category B. I know JQuery is my best bet - but not too sure how to go about it or how to call the function when clicking the publish button.


Routine to convert custom post meta from old to new value

I have two custom post meta objects that have been applied to all pages and posts in my sites. The names are MyCustomHeader and MyCustomTitle and I have one of these assigned to each post and page in my site. I've just decided to change the names of these two meta objects so that they do not appear in the Custom Fields fieldset. I've done this by placing an underscore character before them. This changes the values to "_MyCustomHeader" and "_MyCustomTitle". In order to account for the sites that have numerous references to the old post meta names, I need to create a routine that runs once (either in the form of a plugin or a script in my theme options that only executes on theme activation) that goes through the WP database and converts every value that was "MyCustomHeader to "_MyCustomHeader" and also "MyCustomTitle" to "_MyCustomTitle". Any help much appreciated.   * scott


Get the ID of the page a menu item links to?

I am currently using a custom walker to customize the output of `wp_nav_menu()`, and I am trying to add additional information to the `<a>` tags. What I want the output for each menu link to look like is:               About Me Page      Where `PAGEID` is the ID of the page I'm linking to. The reason is because I am developing a theme that opens page content in lightboxes, which are triggered by the class in the tag. Below is the code of the custom walker in my `functions.php` file (after the code I'll point to the area where I'm having trouble):               class description_walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu     {                function start_el(&$output, $item, $depth, $args)           {                global $wp_query;                     $pageid = $wp_query->post->ID;                     $indent = ( $depth ) ? str_repeat( "\t", $depth ) : '';                     $class_names = $value = '';                     $classes = empty( $item->classes ) ? array() : (array) $item->classes;                     $class_names = join( ' ', apply_filters( 'nav_menu_css_class', array_filter( $classes ), $item ) );                $class_names = ' class="'. esc_attr( $class_names ) . '"';                     $output .= $indent . '
ID . '"' . $value . $class_names .'>';                     $attributes  = ! empty( $item->attr_title ) ? ' title="'  . esc_attr( $item->attr_title ) .'"' : '';                $attributes .= ! empty( $item->target )     ? ' target="' . esc_attr( $item->target     ) .'"' : '';                $attributes .= ! empty( $item->xfn )        ? ' rel="'    . esc_attr( $item->xfn        ) .'"' : '';                $attributes .= ! empty( $item->url )        ? ' href="'   . '#' .'"' : '';                     $prepend = '';                $append = '';                $description  = ! empty( $item->description ) ? ''.esc_attr( $item->description ).'' : '';                     if($depth != 0)                {                          $description = $append = $prepend = "";                }                      $item_output = $args->before;                 $item_output .= '';                 $item_output .= $args->link_before .$prepend.apply_filters( 'the_title', $item->title, $item->ID ).$append;                 $item_output .= $args->link_after;                 $item_output .= '';                 $item_output .= $args->after;                      $output .= apply_filters( 'walker_nav_menu_start_el', $item_output, $item, $depth, $args );                      if ($item->menu_order == 1) {                     $classes[] = 'first';                 }                      }     }      Towards the end are a couple of lines that begin with `$item_output`. The second line is where I'm trying to generate the page ID:               $item_output .= '';      Where `$pageid` is according to:               global $wp_query;         $pageid = $wp_query->post->ID;      This gives me a single, fixed ID for all the links generated. Alternatively, instead of `$pageid` I tried using `$item->ID`, but that gave me the ID of the menu item instead. Any suggestions?


How to restore all items from trash

Custom permalinks

We have a custom type `music`.               /music/     /music/post-name/      Also, we have a tag-like taxonomy `genres`. Its urls are:               /music-genres/genre-name/      I'm trying to make urls like:               /music/     /music/post-name/     /music/genres/     /music/genres/genre-name/      `/music-genres/` should be replaced by `/music/genres/`. Finally we should get url structure like:               /post-type/taxonomy/term/     /post-type/postname/      How do I do this?


Can I the caption shortcode to set caption to a data attribute, and with the image's alignment intact?

I want to output an image caption in this kind of format:               <img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-316" alt="Image Title" data-caption="Here lies the image caption" src="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/image-400x266.jpg" width="400" height="266">      I got the basic caption code from WP Core and ran it through the `add_filter( 'img_caption_shortcode', 'my_magic_caption');` filter, which seems to work fine. My problem is that I can't seem to actually affect the (`$content`) IMG tag itself, only surround it with other html, which is fine but not what I'm looking for. Any guidance would be appreciated.

WP Super Cache Bug with Ubermenu

Im having a serious issue with WP Super cache and UberMenu. For some reason, every now and again, I will view my site, and it will have the default styling applied to ubermenu and then this unstyled version gets stuck in the cache and stays until I clear it. I clear the cache, and my custom styling from my main stylesheet gets applied and everything is fine for a while. If i turn off caching, its fine. Any ideas what issue may be causing this? Is there a way to exclude the CSS for the ubermenu from supercache? Thanks Andy


Add multiple taxonomy filters to edit.php that support search

After reading through this fantastic tutorial by Mike Schinkel: Adding a Taxonomy Filter to Admin List for a Custom Post Type? I have discovered a few issues that I need to work out. Search does not seem to work properly with custom taxonomy filters applied. Also, if I output more than one custom taxonomy filter dropdown, what's the best way to prevent a user from specifying values for more than one of the dropdowns? I'm thinking I should just add a JavaScript function, but it might have to be a dynamically generated JavaScript function. I really want to tackle the search issue first, though. Any thoughts? Thanks for your help, Dave Morris


Using custom post type as taxonomy

I have two custom post types, Books and Authors. Now, each book will have its corresponding author(s). I know how to associate books with authors using custom metas. However, over time, there will be a lot of books and corresponding authors. Which would be the best UI control to show a list of authors to select from, hopefully in a compact manner?


My theme has a "function_exists" wrapper around the is_multisite() call as seen below...               if(function_exists(is_multisite()))     {         //do something     }      However, I'm still getting this error on theme install...               Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_multisite()      What am I missing?


Category links suddenly started giving 404 errors

My Wordpress blog suddenly seems to have started giving me 404 errors when accessing category pages. For example, http://blog.rtwilson.com/category/tok- related/. Interestingly, this doesn't happen for child categories (such as GIS and Remote Sensing, shown in the sidebar on the above link) but does happen for parent categories (eg. Academic) and categories with no children (like TOK-related). Does anyone have any ideas why this might have happened? I recently changed the permalink structure for my blog posts themselves, but not for the categories. Do I need to rebuild the category list somehow? If so, how? **Update** .htaccess file content:               # BEGIN WordPress     <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>     RewriteEngine On     RewriteBase /     RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d     RewriteRule . /index.php [L]     </IfModule>          # END WordPress


Enqueue ONLY Plugin Styles and Scripts

Is there a way to enqueue only plugin styles and scripts without wp_head? I have a plugin I'm working on which overrides the page template, but I still want to include all other plugins without including the theme style. Since theme developers don't always enqueue their styles and often hardcode the link, what's the best way around this?


What is wrong with this code I have to make a blockquote shortcode

I have a shortcode for a blockquote `[blockquote]this is the quote[/blockquote]` ... this is the code.               function shortcode_shortcodetest( $atts, $content = null ) {         $return = '

';         $return .= do_shortcode( $content );         $return .= '
';         $return .= '
';         return $return;     }     add_shortcode( 'shortcodetest', 'shortcode_shortcodetest' );      so I would be expecting an output of:

this is a test

       or maybe

this is a test

      but what I get is:

this is a test

      ( note posision of opening paragraph tag ) What is causing the opening `p` tag to move to where it does. I have noticed that if I remove either the `div` or `blockquote` from the shortcode function then it doesn't happen, but I wanted to have the wrapper for some styling reasons and because in the full version I have an associated cite possibility ... and obviously I need to have the blockquote.


custom single.php not working

Trying to solve this issue for the past hour and I can't figure out what's going on. Trying to create `single-blog.php` (I have a few posts which are under the category 'blog') but Wordpress automatically redirects these posts to single.php! I've flushed the permalinks by **settings** > **permalink** > **save changes** but still nothing happens. To test & to see if Wordpress picks up on single-blog.php the code I used was:               <?php get_header(); ?>
TEST HERE
     <?php get_footer(); ?>


Custom editor field displaying HTML in Visual editor

I am trying to add a custom WordPress editor field to the General Settings page in the admin. I have it working except that when you save anything with HTML it converts all the code to HTML entities so the HTML displays on the frontend as text. For example...   1. I add a link in the **Text** editor as `<a href="http://www.example.com">Link</a>`   2. I click to the **Visual** editor and everything looks normal...      * **Visual** = Link     * **Text** = `<a href="http://www.example.com">Link</a>`   3.

Completely remove ability to create users?

I have added the code below to a plugin:               add_action( 'admin_init', 'remove_add_users_cap' );     function remove_add_users_cap() {         $role = get_role( 'administrator' );         $role->remove_cap( 'add_users' );         $role->remove_cap( 'create_users' );     }      And I can see that the caps are no longer on my user:               if(!function_exists('wp_get_current_user')) {         include(ABSPATH . "wp-includes/pluggable.php");      }     $current_user = wp_get_current_user();     echo '<pre>';     print_r($current_user);     echo '</pre>';      But I can still add new users O.o ... Is there something else that needs to be done to achieve this? I would like to completely remove the ability for anyone to add a new user when this plugin is activated... This is in a Wordpress Multisite context, and I have a feeling that may be complicating things. Thanks,


WP MU - Accessing 'Domain-Mapped' WP-Admin with a subdomain

After mapping the domains to each WP MU blog I'm having to separately login to each of the blogs and from what I've read online it's not possible or not secure to keep a user logged in on different domains if you're using cookies.      Is it possible to still have each WP blog mapped (wpmu1.hubdomain.com => www.newdomain.com), however be able to access the WP-Admin through the subdomain version of the WP blog? I'm guessing that if the WP-Admin is still under the same domain I can enable cookies to cross each subdomain?


If Child or Grandchild of Page

I'm serving a different header in Wordpress depending what section you are within the site, 'residential' , 'business' or other by using the following code. Although i need to extend it to work with grandchildren as well, so another level down.               <?php     /*     Template Name: Package     */      if (is_page('business') || $post->post_parent=="17")     {     get_header('business');     }     else if (is_page('residential') || $post->post_parent=="19")     {     get_header('residential');     }     else      {     get_header();     }     ?>


Site layout problems when logged in due to admin bar

Is there a way to when logged in have the banner on my page move down so many specified pixels? This is what it looks like when I'm logged in (as of course the dashboard bar at the top is there and pushes almost everything down (except my banner as it's absolutely positioned). ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/kCBxT.png) And of course this i what it looks like when I'm not logged in. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/k75Ym.png) I looked on the wordpress codex and found this snippet of code               <?php     if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {         echo 'Welcome, registered user!';     } else {         echo 'Welcome, visitor!';     }     ?>      So I attempted to use it and tried to tell wordpress if the user is logged in show this banner with this styling, else show the other banner with that styling. However as I'm not a programmer this is all I got.               <?php     if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {         <?php the_post_thumbnail();?>                 <?php if (function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('banner-widget')) : else : ?>
<img class="banner" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory') ?>/img/BANNER1-averylawoffice.jpg" alt="Banner 1">
                 <?php endif; ?>     } else {         <?php the_post_thumbnail();?>                 <?php if (function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('banner-widget')) : else : ?>
<img class="h3-banner" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory') ?>/img/BANNER1-averylawoffice.jpg" alt="Banner 1">
                 <?php endif; ?>     }     ?>      But it doesn't work. Of course. So what can I do to have this banner move down when a user is logged in? Am I on the right track, just missing something?


Say I have a tech blog, how best would I store technical specs for a phone, if i use custom post types

I've been playing around with WordPress for a couple of months now and when a client requests that he/she be allowed to modify, add content without my intervention, my defacto standard is WordPress. I've found WP to be extremely transparent and flexible compared to other CMS I've experimented with. Say I have a phone review website and I use custom post types to list the phones. I'm assuming this is one of intended applications of custom post types, and I would like your suggestions on how best to store the technical specifications of the phone. Here's an example http://www.theverge.com/products/xperia-acro-s/5697 Click on Full specs and this is an approximate picture of what I'm trying to achieve. My question is 1) Should I use custom fields ( post meta ) for every single specification? This would mean at least 25 custom fields (Screen size, processor,display and so on..) for each custom post ( here, the phone). 2) Have a separate table in the wordpress database with fields as the tech spec (Screen size, processor,display and so on..) In addition to display the tech specs every for every phone, I would also like it implement a 'Compare' feature as well as search for a phone based on the spec. Which of the above methods would you suggest for optimum performance during 'compare' or 'search' ? Thanks for your time.


Custom field values get deleted

I created a custom post type:products which also has custom fields: price & shipping. Occasionally, if I leave the edit product window open or refresh it, I lose the values inside price and shipping. Can someone please advise on this.               add_action('save_post', 'save_details');      function save_details()     {          global $post;         update_post_meta($post->ID, "price",        $_POST["price"]        );         update_post_meta($post->ID, "shipping",     $_POST["shipping"]     );         update_post_meta($post->ID, "long_title",   $_POST["long_title"]   );         update_post_meta($post->ID, "upload_image", $_POST["upload_image"] );     }


Exclude a category from a query that includes its parent category

I am trying to use ids to control the structure of the output of my categories. I need to exclude a category that is part of the parent category that is being queried. What I am trying is :               <?php $the_query = new WP_Query('cat=14$cat=-45&showposts=20');             $permalink = get_permalink( $post_id );             while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post();?>
                 <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" class="postTitleLink">                 <?php the_title(); ?>
             <?php wp_reset_query(); ?><?php endwhile; ?>      What would be the correct way to show everything in category id 14, except for category 45? I want to treat 45 differently and show all of its sub categories in a different way. To try and help describe what I want :               #12     - #14     - #14     - #14      -- #45       --- #50        ---- #60       --- #51     - #14      instead of cat=- should I be using conditional statements instead .. !in_category ? Thanks for any help!


Link Featured Thumb to Attachment Page, If Possible

Are featured thumbs uploaded the same as other images and have their own attachment post url? I'm trying to utilize the 3.0+ post formats and am using the featured image when creating a post under the 'image' post format. I would like to link the image from the blog loop to its attachment page, which I have already customized for my gallery post format images. Looking for the right direction. One thing I noticed is that custom post types can have their own page templates e.g.:               single-post_type.php      but post formats do not? So my questions: 1. - how do you link a featured image from the blog home page to its attachement page (or what is the best solution if it does not have one)? 2. - is there a way to create custom 'single' pages for post formats (or do I use conditionals on single.php)? Thanks.


Custom Post Type Templates from Plugin Folder?

I'd like to offer my custom post type as a Plugin, so that people can use it without touching their theme folder. But custom post type templates -- such as single-movies.php -- reside in the theme folder. Is there a way to get WP to check for a single-movies.php in the plugin's folder? Hooking a function into the Filer Hierarchy? Or get_template_directory(); ?


Create pagination and order according to alphabet

is it possible to create an alphabet pagination? as well as alphabet order of a query post??? I can't a solution on this based on the regular queries. I would appreciate any help, thanks in advanced. UPDATED* _*_ * Well since apparently this hard to understand, I will explain myself better. I'm looking for a way to query post based on the alphabet order that allow me paginate **NOT** by page but alphabet first letter. In this order I cannot use default order_by = 'title' as some1 suggested. PD: ifyou are going vote down, at least contribute with something, I don't think that is really hard to understand that more than the 50% of the users of the site don't use english as first language, so even if we do all our best to help the community we can make mistake sometimes. In this order if you are going to say "Explain yourself better" at least give an opinion of what you understood.


Show Video in Excerpt

So I recently figured out how to change my blog page to display excerpts by changing the `<?php the_content(); ?>` to `<?php the_excerpt(); ?>` in my `index.php` file. I am using a custom child theme and unfortunately had to edit the parent twenty eleven `functions.php` file to modify the continue reading link to read more, which I know isn't the correct way, but for some reason when I created a function in my `functions.php` in the theme folder it wasn't overriding and when I deleted the lines in the parent `functions.php` file the post content disappeared!? (I guess that is question 1) My real question now is when I do get the excerpts to work video does not display in the excerpt post so it looks like I have a sentence and the post ends when there should be a video displayed. I don't want users to be confused and think that is the end of the post...   1. Is there another way to override the functions.php file so that I can do the excerpts read more without editing the parent functions.php   2. How can I get my videos to display in my excerpts? Thanks and I hope this makes sense let me know if you need clarification!


widgets in contacts only

I have a few pages listed in my top menu. these are: contacts, My account and messages. I have added a map to the "Pages Sidebar" tab in admin. But it seems to add the map to all 3 pages listed above but I only want it to appear on the contact page and not the other 2 as in the other 2 I would like something else (an advert to memberships maybe). How can I do this? thank you for your help.


Do I only need to import style.css for a child theme?

I am creating a child theme for the first time, and sort of learning as I go. I am having an issue with the way videos are showing up on a mobile phone with my child theme, but not with my parent theme. I'm wondering what is going on. On my child theme the videos show up large when viewed on a mobile device (http://wpdallas.com/test) However, in the parent theme the videos show up fine: http://wpdallas.com/plain In my child them I am importing the following css, do I need to import every CSS file into my child theme, or just the style.css? (I've found conflicting info when learning how to do this.)The parent theme has about 20 different css files. I'm wondering if I need to import them all into my child theme, or if I need to delete the other two below, and just leave the first one (style.css.) Just trying to figure out why the child theme isn't styling correctly. Thanks.                @import url("../Standard/style.css");         @import url("../Standard/standard_framework/css/standard_framework.css");          @import url("../Standard/css/lib/adapt/mobile.css");

Is it possible to paginate posts correctly that are random ordered?

I found this problem on Wordpress Support and the topic unfortunately is now closed. I have this same issue... (read below) * * * We have created a site where members can recommend things like favourite books, movie, songs, etc. For this problem I will use the Movies page as an example. The "Movies" page is ultimately a custom page template that asks wordpress to display a random list of ALL posts that have been given the category "movies" (category 31). It displays the title of these movies in random order using the code below.               <?php      $rand = new WP_Query("cat=31&showposts=-1&orderby=rand");      while($rand->have_posts()) : $rand->the_post();     ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>     <?php endwhile; ?>      Problem is the list is getting rather long and I would like to split it up into two or more pages of about 10 movies each. To achieve this, I have used the code below.               <?php      $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;      query_posts("cat=31&orderby=rand&showposts=10&paged=$page");      while ( have_posts() ) : the_post()      ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>     <?php endwhile; ?>      But there is a problem because although it splits up the data into pages of 10 posts each (paginates), it fails to include a new set of 10 posts on page 2 and so forth. In other words, because it is listing things in a random order, it just goes out and gets another 10 random posts (or in this case movie titles). As a result, we have some repeated movie title posts instead of a new set of 10 random movie titles on page 2, etc. My question is - what can I add to this code to get wordpress to "remember" which random 10 posts it included on page 1, and then have it get a new set of 10 posts to put on pages 2, 3, etc. until all posts are displayed. I would like there to be only one occurrence of a post per page when sorted randomly in sets of 10.

PHP in Edit Post link

What is the best way to add php to the edit link? For example: insert `<?php echo of_get_option('dappo_actionbtncolor', 'dappblue' ); ?>` into the span tag of `<?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit this', 'mytheme' ), '<span class="edit-link">', '</span>' ); ?>`


Showing errors with $wpdb update

I am using `$wpdb->update` to update a custom table I have in my database. When I `var_dump` the result it returns:               int(0)      So I tried `$wpdb->print_error()` to see what's wrong. However, it shows nothing. I also tried `$wpdb->show_errors()`, but again it showed nothing. The wpdb docs don't go into much detail on how to use these functions, so I am unsure if I am using them correctly. But why would the result of updating a table return 0, and not show any errors?


Allow unfiltered HTML in titles for low level users?

How can the `unfiltered_html` capability be given to non network admins in a multisite install to allow HTML in titles? In wp-includes/capabilities.php (below) it appears that this capability can not be given to non super_admins.               case 'unfiltered_html':             // Disallow unfiltered_html for all users, even admins and super admins.             if ( defined('DISALLOW_UNFILTERED_HTML') && DISALLOW_UNFILTERED_HTML ) {                 $caps[] = 'do_not_allow';                 break;             }             // Fall through if not DISALLOW_UNFILTERED_HTML         case 'delete_user':         case 'delete_users':             // If multisite these caps are allowed only for super admins.             if ( is_multisite() && !is_super_admin() )                 $caps[] = 'do_not_allow';             else                 $caps[] = $cap;             break;      Is this possible without removing all html filtering or committing the dirty deed? ### Use Case: Editors and writers are demanding the ability to use `<br/>` tags in titles to split into 2 or 3 lines when needed. ### Current Workaround: Alternate title metabox that replaces the_title on front end when filled in. (It's confusing the writers) ### Easier Solution: Give them super admin access (publisher will not allow)


Adding link to dashboard sidebar, nested under custom post type

I hope there is an easy answer for this, as it doesn't seem like it should be difficult and could make my backend much easier for other's to use. I'm trying to add links to custom post types - that is, a **shortcut in the sidebar** , not a typical wordpress link that you would put in the link category. Let's say my sidebar looks like:               Dashboard     ----------     Posts     ...     Stores (custom post-type)     - All Stores     - Add Store     - My custom link      The last line would be the custom link. Hopefully it is possible to make this link appear as a child to a custom post type, but if not at least having a static link would be a good start. The closest I could find on Google was this page about adding separators to the admin panel, which is useful for indicating my custom post types. Unfortunately the code for this is very alien to me (and the comments are only present on the obvious code, which is very frustrating). I assume that the code used for the separator is at least close to what I need, though. At the very least, where should I even look for an answer?


Why Pagination is not working on Category.php

How to add a custom thumbnail size for a specific category?

The default thumbnail size for the Wordpress theme I use generates category thumbnails for the homepage and archive page at 200x110px. I would like to add a custom thumbnail size for a specific category of 200x200px that would display on the homepage and on the category archive page. I have experience working with Wordpress but I am not an expert. Based on the responses I've read to similar questions, I believe the answer lies in functions.php but I need detailed instructions on how to achieve this. If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

How do I get a child theme to load scripts from the parent theme?

Pretty new to WordPress functions, so apologies if this is basic stuff. I've designed a parent theme that registers and enqueues two scripts like so:                   if ( !function_exists( 'scherzo_scripts' ) ) :              function scherzo_scripts() {                  if (!is_admin()) {                  wp_register_script( 'html5shiv', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/html5.js');             wp_register_script( 'css3mediaqueries', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/css3-mediaqueries.js');             wp_enqueue_script('html5shiv');             wp_enqueue_script('css3mediaqueries');                  }         }              add_action('init', 'scherzo_scripts');          endif;      I'm finding that if I install a child theme the scripts don't run. To try and force them to run I create a new `functions.php` file in the child theme folder and add:               function scherzo_scripts() {                  if (!is_admin()) {                      wp_register_script( 'html5shiv', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/html5.js');                 wp_register_script( 'css3mediaqueries', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/css3-mediaqueries.js');                 wp_enqueue_script('html5shiv');                 wp_enqueue_script('css3mediaqueries');                  }              }              add_action('init', 'scherzo_scripts');      But no joy. Am I doing something wrong?


What is the role and history of the $content_width global variable?

I just stumbled over a global variable called `$content_width`. It was new to me, so far I could see that it's used in themes, both the standard twenty ten one and third party ones. It looks like that it contains the width of the content area in pixels. But since global variables are not documented in codex, I have trouble to find valid and funded information about it. When was the `$content_width` global variable introduced and for what reason? Is there a ticket related to it?


Display/query post formats

WP 3.1 has everyone excited, if somewhat confused, about post formats. ### Enabling new post formats The issue of enabling post formats has been covered at length. It's as simple as adding this line to functions.php: `add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'aside', 'gallery' ) );` ### Displaying Posts of a certain Format But the issue of _displaying_ these posts has hardly been covered at all. Lets document the process of displaying/querying posts of a certain format using an example: Let's say we want to put a Twitter-like status update in the sidebar. It's easy to enable the `status` post format, but how to I actually query for those posts to make them show up in the sidebar? I've done quite a bit of searching and haven't found an answer to this problem, all are welcome to contribute. If we come up with a good answer, I think it would be the first to document this issue. With thanks!


Is there a template tag/function for getting the URL (or slug or name or ID) of the blog page when using a "static" front page

Done some reasonable searching for this and don't think it's been asked before. I've got a site which I'm developing a custom template/theme for. The site will use a page as the front page (rather than the list of posts), but I want to create a link in the template to the page of blog posts. There are some functions for finding various URL's like site_url() and admin_url(), and, of course, there's bloginfo(), but I can see anything that will get me the name/slug/URL/ID of the page used as the blog page. I'm sure I've seen this somewhere before but can't track it down now that I need it. Any ideas? Thanks RW


Order form for WP (similar to a wishlist)

Can anyone **recommend a plugin** to accomplish the following in WP? **1)** I have a form where a visitor can enter his contact information and list the nice to have items with a price. _For example:_               Item Name   |    Item price in $     --------------------------------     iPhone      |    100      iPad        |    200      **2)** I want the form to be able to calculate total price, add shipping and other fees and display the grand total. If possible, I'd like to also display all this in a different currency using a currency converter. For example,               Totals                |    Price in $          |    Price in Euro     -----------------------------------------------------------     Total Items           |    300                 |    200     Total with Fees       |    480     Pre-Payment           |    144     Payment               |    336      _Total Items = 100+200 from the example above Total with fees, pre-payment, and payment are calculated based on a custom formula._ **3)** I _do not need a shopping cart or e-commerce option_. The visitor fills out the wishlist form, sees the calculated totals and if he wants, submits this form. Thanks!!


How to call custom taxonomy categories with shortcodes

I've just had one questions solved over here: How to display posts from a single category within a custom taxonomy. Now I'm wondering how to take this code:               <?php         $args = array(             'posts_per_page' => 1,             'post_type' => 'inventory',             'tax_query' => array(                 array(                     'taxonomy' => 'inventory-category',                     'field' => 'slug',                     'terms' => array(                          'bulk-racks'                      )                 )             )                );     query_posts( $args ); while ( have_posts() ): the_post();          // do stuff here     ?>          <?php endwhile; ?>      and call it using shortcodes, for example to display the bulk-racks category by using this or something similar [inventory-category="bulk-racks"] I know how to create a basic shortcode but I don't know how to write the function that would return the posts based on the shortcode category name input. Once again any help would be greatly appreciated.


Getting the warning: Missing argument 2 for manage_posts_custom_column()?

I created a custom post type, two custom taxonomies and displayed them in the 'manage post section, but I'm getting the following warning: > Warning: Missing argument 2 for manage_posts_custom_column() in > /home/aleche23/alexchen.info/wp-content/themes/techozoic- > fluid/functions/custom-post-types.php on line 95 Picture: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Gwqgp.png)               <?php          /**      * Create the Blocks custom post type and the Sections custom taxonomy      */     add_action('init', 'create_post_type');

Multi user site and image captions

On multi user sites when authors select images from the media library they can choose images that other authors have uploaded. The problem is that they can edit the caption and it changes it for both the post they're making and any previous posts that have the same image and caption, this doesn't make any sense. Is there a way to stop authors from user images uploaded by other authors or fixing the image caption problem?


Using custom post template

i'm trying to implement a custom post template for all posts filed under a specific category. I'm making use of **WP-O-Matic plugin** that puts in the **RSS feeds in this category** and would like to make a bit of customization for the branding on posts filed under this particular category. I found the below code from here: http://www.nathanrice.net/blog/wordpress- single-post-templates/ But when I add this to my functions.php I get a warning: > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting T_STRING or > T_VARIABLE or '{' or '$' in public_html/wp- > content/themes/mytheme/functions.php(16) : runtime-created function on line > 1               add_filter(          'single_template',          create_function(                 '$t',                  'foreach( (array) get_the_category() as $cat )                  {                          if ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->1176}.php") )                                  return TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->1176}.php";                  }                  return $t;'          )     );      Any idea on how to figure this out. P.S: I tried using a different approach where I made single.php as a doorway page to run a WP query. If category id matches then it renders custom- template.php else default-template.php As mentioned here. But I continue to get the following error: > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting T_STRING or > T_VARIABLE or '{' or '$' in public_html/wp- > content/themes/mytheme/functions.php(16) : runtime-created function on line > 1 > > Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First > argument is expected to be a valid callback, '' was given in > /public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 166


Dynamically tax_query

I have this for example:               $myquery['tax_query'] = array(         'relation' => 'OR',         array(             'taxonomy' => 'cities',             'terms' => 'boston',             'field' => 'slug',             'operator' => 'NOT IN'         ),         array(             'taxonomy' => 'cities',             'terms' => 'chicago',             'field' => 'slug',             'operator' => 'NOT IN'         ),     );     query_posts($myquery);      But I would like to make it dinamically, because I have a form with checkboxes. Each checkbox would be a term of my taxonomy "cities". The idea is that if a user select any of the checkboxes, it should show all posts that are NOT in marked terms. But I would like to generate as many arrays for tax_query as checkboxes selected. I mean: If a user check Boston, I create:               array(                 'taxonomy' => 'cities',                 'terms' => 'boston',                 'field' => 'slug',                 'operator' => 'NOT IN'             ),      If a user check Chicago:               array(                 'taxonomy' => 'cities',                 'terms' => 'chicago',                 'field' => 'slug',                 'operator' => 'NOT IN'             ),      If a user check both of them:               array(                 'taxonomy' => 'cities',                 'terms' => 'boston',                 'field' => 'slug',                 'operator' => 'NOT IN'             ),             array(                 'taxonomy' => 'cities',                 'terms' => 'chicago',                 'field' => 'slug',                 'operator' => 'NOT IN'             ),      How can I do it?

Showing all tags in admin -> edit post

Someone knows how to show 'all tags' insteads of the 'most used tags' in edit post of administration panel? This should give the ability to select with a single click tags that are not yet used! Here is a screenshot of what I mean: screenshot Thank you very much. Ok, I've resolved in this manner: go to wp-admin -> include and open ajax- actions.php file, inside wp_ajax_get_tagcloud function edit line 658, that shows as this:               $tags = get_terms( $taxonomy, array( 'number' => 45, 'orderby' => 'count', 'order' => 'DESC' ) );      and change it with this:               $tags = get_terms( $taxonomy, array( 'number' => 45, 'orderby' => 'count', 'order' => 'DESC', 'hide_empty' => 0 ) );      this will work for me; hope could be useful.


Allow certain part of a page to be easily updated for client?

My client has asked me to create an about me section which will include a picture, job title and description for each team member as floated elements. They also want it to be as easily updateable as adding a post to a blog. So if they wanted to add a new team member within the same page, they will want to upload the image and enter text into the job title and description box and click publish. Then the new member will appear next to the existing ones. As a newbie to WP, how would I go about achieving this? I've heard of custom post types but I can't find any tutorials on displaying data in one page. Any tutorial links or advice would be highly appreciated.

Wordpress - how to replace <!--more--> with string on the_content() in single.php

I want to add text on a single wordpress blog post page where the "read more" text would usually be inserted. However, I can't configure a plugin to replace that text. I tried a few different sources, but I'm having trouble finding the solution. After looking through WordPress plugin: finding the <!--more--> in the_content and the page it links to, I still haven't been able to find a solution to this.


New to wordpress, Question about editing PHP

Ok, I am pretty new to wordpress, and I have been reading a lot of the documentation online and testing things out on my own blog. I have just run into a couple of general questions. At first glance for a newb editing the PHP is a little over-whelming. Different themes have different files. There is a whole list of functions that I need to get used to. I started to fret because I wasn't sure where to start if I wanted to make simple tweaks to a post, a page etc. I have been reading a lot of the documentation of how Wordpress is structured and how wordpress posts get populated, so I'm starting to understand a little better, but I still have a question. I have tried installing a few plugins and some cases I noticed that after I switched themes, the plugin didn't work. In cases like that, do I need to edit the PHP files of the theme to make the plugin work? Or am I missing settings somewhere. Any assistance or explanation would be greatly appreciated.

Changing the language for each individual site in wordpress multisite

I currently have a multisite setup and I currently have two sites, one is English (default) and the other I want it to be French. Since I can't have a separate config file and separate language folders I need to be able for each language site to use their respective .po file for the front end user. English for the backend is fine for both sites. How can I do this? I don't see anywhere in the settings the selection of the language. Is there a plugin? Can I just add a simple line of code? Please help me! Thanks!


Is user listing on wordpress private?

I'm creating a website using Wordpress. Users are registering on it as "Subscribers". When you register, you have a small panel with some custom info on it (that I made, creating a custom template) Each user shouldn't know other users exist. I started developing this without knowing if when registered users are available "to the world" (google indexing them, for example). Is user registration data is publicy available in a Wordpress installation, by some url, perhaps? Can Anonymous users see registered ones, or can Registered Ones see all others registered ones? Where I can get this information on wordpress docs? Are registered users on Wordpress supposed to be available to all? I couldn't get any information about this. Can someone help?


Profiles site with access levels

I'm building a site for a intranet that display data about people (totally legal!!). we will call these people Alumni. The structure is like this: there are three roles, administrators, alumni, watchers. The alumni register themselves and input their data. During registration they choose which data is "private", which is "public". Alumni have to be accepted by administrators after registration. Watchers can see public data of Alumni. Alumni are Watchers in respect of other Alumni. Administrators can watch also private data of the Alumni, modify this data, accept alumni after registration, delete Alumni. Would be nice if alumni could cancel themselves with confirmation by administrators, but this is not urgent. So, my idea is that alumni should be a CPT connected to the registered alumni maybe by author relationship or via a metadata. These post should be shown in front end only after login. Watchers and Alumni should not be able to login to the back end. As I said before in the alumni CPTs there is public data visible to all logged in users and private data visible only to the owner Alumni and Administrators. I know is a bit tricky and I don't ask you for the code. But since I'm not expert in wordpress yet I would like to hear from you some suggestion about how to structurize the site and about which APIs or plugin should I use to achieve my target. Many thanks!!


Getting the comment number relative to all the post's comments

Any ideas how to accomplish this? Something like this would work, but if there are threaded comments you get the wrong number, because pages with threaded comments have actually more comments than the `comments_per_page` setting:               $c_page = get_query_var('cpage');     $c_per_page = get_query_var('comments_per_page');          $number = ($c_page * $c_per_page) - $c_per_page + $current_c_index;      (`$current_c_index` is a global variable storing comment count for the current page loop) * * * _Later edit:_ A partial solution is to extend the Walker_Comment class, do a clone of the paged_walk() function in which you increase the counter within the `$top_elements` loop. But still that doesn't count child comments :(


Adding TinyMCE custom buttons when using teeny_mce_before_init

I'm using the following code to produce a different TinyMCE bar to the default WordPress setup:               if (function_exists('wp_tiny_mce')) {              add_filter("mce_external_plugins", "add_myplugin_tinymce_plugin");         add_filter('mce_buttons', 'register_myplugin_button');              add_filter('teeny_mce_before_init', create_function('$a', '           $a["theme"] = "advanced";           $a["skin"] = "wp_theme";           $a["height"] = "75";           $a["width"] = "800";           $a["onpageload"] = "";           $a["mode"] = "exact";           $a["elements"] = "elm1, elm2";           $a["editor_selector"] = "mceEditor";           $a["plugins"] = "safari,inlinepopups,spellchecker";                $a["forced_root_block"] = false;           $a["force_br_newlines"] = true;           $a["force_p_newlines"] = false;           $a["convert_newlines_to_brs"] = true;                return $a;'));              wp_tiny_mce(true);     }      Can anyone tell me how to work a basic custom button in there? All I need is a straightforward button which prints [ph_min] into the editor area. I've tried using the following filters to no avail:               function register_tcustom_button($buttons)     {         array_push($buttons, "|", "highlight");         return $buttons;     }          function add_tcustom_tinymce_plugin($plugin_array)     {         $plugin_array['highlight'] = WP_PLUGIN_URL . '/sf-tinyMCE-custom-buttons/mce/min_max_buttons/editor_plugin.js';         return $plugin_array;     }          add_filter("mce_external_plugins", "add_tcustom_tinymce_plugin");     add_filter('mce_buttons', 'register_tcustom_button');      Is there any way of doing this, or will I have to use write a manual TinyMCE init which isn't supported by WP?

Any Wysiwyg tool to edit wordpress site based on given theme?

I dream of a wordpress dashboard that would be mostly Wysiwyg and let the user edit a site based on a given theme. In fact this is something I know is technically possible as I have seen it in this tool: http://visualwebsiteoptimizer.com/features.php (see the video; it is not a wordpress tool, but it shows how one can edit a webpage underlying code with a Wysiwyg interface). For example if I am using WooThemes Optimize, the dashboard would show me the homepage and let me edit the titles, the text in the button, the featured image, etc. Does anyone know a tool that can do that? or any hint how I can get there?

I have author pages for each author and I want to see all of their comments (or all of their recent comments) if I click on their nickname. How can I do this?

How to let contributors to create a new revision(draft) editing their published posts

I'm using a custom post type to let contributors have a personal page on the site. Any time a user registers to my site a script creates a custom type post that has the registering user as author. To moderate users entries this post is pubblished by an editor. I would like users (contributors) to be: - uncapable to add other posts of this custom type - capable to edit the already pubblished post they are author of - their changements must be approved by an editor before being pubblished I'm using User Role Editor to manage roles and capabilities. is there a way to do that?

Custom page template how to check is_page from functions.php?

Have a custom page template and trying to make the excerpt length dynamical depending on what page you are in. Functions.php               <?php          function custom_excerpt_length($length){         if (is_page(15)) {         return 20;         } else {         return 150;          }     }     add_filter ( 'excerpt_length', 'custom_excerpt_length');          ?>      cant get is_page to work from functions in my custom template page. If i try `echo is_page(15);` in the static custom template value is **true**. i'am little confused. Is it possible to call `is_page()` from _functions.php_ (WP 3.1.2)


Initialize WordPress customizer variables

I have recently starting integrating the wordpress customizer into my theme. Given the fact that i already had a theme options page, i use these values as default values of my new options (in the add_setting parameter). All my new options are held into a variable called 'theme_options' which is an array of values. The problem i have is that a user has to visit the customization page and click "save" on his first install to populate the 'theme_options' variable. I am wondering if there is a way to initialize this field on theme activation directly (just like many theme options framework do). Thanks in advance !


get_pages() not ordering as it should

I'm using get_pages() function to get all subpages from a page like this:               $childrens = get_pages(array('child_of' => 7,                                   'sort_column' => 'post_date',                                   'sort_order' => 'DESC',                                   'depth' => -1));      This is supossed to get me a list of all pages (no matter if direct children, children of children, etc) orderen by the date they were created, but instead its showing me the list of pages in a strange order, here's the output when I run a foreach on the $childrens array and output the post_date on each:               2011-05-10 15:37:03     2011-05-10 15:35:59     2011-05-10 15:01:18     2011-05-10 17:12:32     2011-05-10 15:00:47     2011-05-10 14:00:14     2011-05-11 04:19:08     2011-05-10 23:52:54     2011-05-10 15:20:12     2011-05-10 15:05:10      As you can see they're not ordered by date descending, I tried using other options in the sort_column key but none seemed to e working correctly, does anyone know what could be wrong? Thanks in advance!


Displaying images with relative paths in the editor

By default it seems the editor inserts images using an absolute path. We're developing a site in /staging/ and plan to move it later on. Is there a way to get relative paths on images to display properly in the editor? Maybe there's a function or snippet in the editor that resolves to the upload path or something? So for example, my images in my home page are:               <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-21" title="Authentic Chinese Food" src="wp-content/uploads/2011/04/panel_authentic.jpg" alt="Authentic Chinese Food" />      which display fine on the page itself, but not in the editor. Thanks! John.

Installing local to live WP into subdirectory

I am having a bit of trouble moving a local WP site live and into a subdirectory. I want a static homepage for now (index.html in the root folder) while I work on the live site (would be found in root/folder/, so website.com/subfolder/). Following these steps I've had success installing WP into the root folder, but it doesn't work for a subdirectory. I was wondering if someone could walk me through how to get it to work, so I have a static homepage and am able to work on the WP site live. My host is dreamhost.

How do I allow http/ftp access to files I have uploaded?

I am hosting on godaddy (yes, i know - shameful - but it is a proof of concept for now) I have artifacts/installers for a mobile phone project (Windows .CAB file) and part of my build server steps FTP the files up to the server. I can see them using the web browser FTP client on my godaddy account. Unfortunately when I type in the url of my domain then /downloads (the location I thought I put them) i do not see the files or what I expect. Instead I am just brought to my homepage. I suspect there is some setting I need to do to allow a pass-through or something to allow that url to be viewed? I think I am using the TwentyTen theme 1.2 Alternatively, how do I list all the files in a directory using some wordpress-defined page? (like list all the files in my uploads/downloads directory that I placed there) - I do not want to have to manually change this - I just want them reflected on my site when they are available. EDIT To clarify - I have uploaded files to my "server" and I see them at: www.mydomainname.com/downloads using an ftp viewer. However, when I go to that domain with a web browser it gets directed to my main homepage and is not "allowed" by WP.

Registering custom TinyMCE buttons, for admin area, to work with custom instances of wp_editor

Thanks to this answer here, I am able to use different instances of `wp_editor` to determine which buttons each of my differing TinyMCE instances use. However, I'm struggling to actually get my buttons registered - they're simply not appearing on the TinyMCE interface the way I think they should! I've tried two different approaches - putting the code in my `species- profiles` plugin (a Custom Post Type called `species` in which I wish the TinyMCE instances to feature), and putting the code in my theme's `functions.php`. The code I'm using is:               function add_SF_buttons() {         if ( ! current_user_can('edit_posts') && ! current_user_can('edit_pages') )             return;         if ( get_user_option('rich_editing') == 'true') {             add_filter('mce_external_plugins', 'add_SF_buttons_plugins');         }     }          function add_SF_buttons_plugins($plugin_array) {         $plugin_array['pH'] = get_bloginfo('template_directory') .

Yet the custom buttons fail to appear. I guess I'm doing something wrong - initialising them incorrectly, or something. ![How the TinyMCE interface appears](http://i.stack.imgur.com/l7yfA.png) Thanks in advance,


Parsing post->ID in included plugin file

running into something that has got me completely puzzled. I have a plugin with a main file that looks like this:               // Global Variables     $mouldings_prefix = 'mouldings_';     $mouldings_name = 'Mouldings';          if(!defined('MOULDINGS_BASE_DIR')) {         define('MOULDINGS_BASE_DIR', dirname(__FILE__));     }     if(!defined('MOULDINGS_BASE_URL')) {         define('MOULDINGS_BASE_URL', plugin_dir_url(__FILE__));     }          // Includes     include('includes/scripts.php'); // Conrols JS/CSS     include('includes/admin-post-types.php'); // Sets up post types/taxonomies     include('includes/helper-functions.php'); // Functions that extend functionality of Mouldings     include('includes/admin-metaboxes.php'); // Metaboxes that appear in the admin (non-ACF)      So nothing too fancy, just sets up some variables and includes some helper files. I have a metabox that is set to display (from `admin-metaboxes.php`) which generates a box on a post type, called `moulding_profiles`               add_action('admin_init','roots_mouldings_meta_init');          function roots_mouldings_meta_init()     {         // http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_meta_box         // add a meta box for each of the wordpress page types: posts and pages         foreach (array('moulding_profiles') as $type)         {             add_meta_box('roots_mouldings_profile_tools', 'Profile Tools', 'roots_mouldings_meta_setup', $type, 'side', 'high');         }     }          function roots_mouldings_meta_setup()     {         global $post;              // using an underscore, prevents the meta variable         // from showing up in the custom fields section         $meta = get_post_meta($post->ID,'_roots_mouldings',TRUE);              ?>              Regenerate CAD File
Clicking the button above will delete the current CAD zip file created for the profile which will be regenerated upon pageload. This is useful if any of the CAD files originally listed have been modified.
         <?php     }      The metabox itself doesn't save any information, more or less just has a clickable button and some description text. The button itself is tied to a `scripts.php` file (also included) which adds in the `admin.js` file and localizes the script and gets the path to a PHP file (which would be called on-click), called `admin-delete-cad.php`               // Script conrol     function mouldings_load_scripts() {         wp_enqueue_script('mouldings-isotope', MOULDINGS_BASE_URL . 'js/jquery.isotope.min.js',array('jquery'),'1.5.17',true);         wp_enqueue_script('mouldings-isotope-script', MOULDINGS_BASE_URL . 'js/script.js',array('jquery'),'',true);     }     add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','mouldings_load_scripts');          function admin_mouldings_load_scripts() {         wp_enqueue_script('mouldings-admin', MOULDINGS_BASE_URL . 'js/admin.js',array('jquery'),'',true);              $mouldings_admin = array(             'deletecadfile' => MOULDINGS_BASE_URL . '/includes/admin-delete-cad.php'             );         wp_localize_script( 'mouldings-admin', 'mouldingsadmin', $mouldings_admin);     }     add_action('admin_enqueue_scripts', 'admin_mouldings_load_scripts' );      The actual data is parsing to the admin correctly, showing:               /* <![CDATA[ */     var mouldingsadmin = {"deletecadfile":"http:\/\/yhmags.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/plugins\/mouldings\/\/includes\/admin-delete-cad.php"};     /* ]]> */      and is correctly being called onclick via the following JS (in `admin.js`)               jQuery(document).ready( function($) {         $('#deleteCad').click(function() {             $.get(mouldingsadmin.deletecadfile, function(data) {                 $('#deleteCad').html(data);             });             return false;         });     });      But when I try to access data within `admin-delete-cad.php`, I don't have access to well... any of the default WP info (like the $post->ID) which is what I'm after:               define('WP_BASE_DIR', realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/../../../../'));     global $post;     $id = $_GET['post'];     echo $id; echo $post->ID;     echo WP_BASE_DIR . '/cad-'.$id.'.zip';      The file itself loads fine (if I just put in a plain text string), but as you can see above, I'm trying to get any post information to work... but nothing is showing up. Been at this for a while, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!


Visual Editor: Paragraph styles appear to one admin but not to others

The first admin of my site has a full Visual Editor with style sheets. I create new users who are admins (their profile page has same settings with original admin) but they cannot set the style of paragrpaphs (no drop-down list with styles). Any ideas? Thanks.


If a post belongs to two categories how do I choose the main category?

When I assign a post to two categories always one of categories becomes the main category. Is there any way to specify which category out of the two or more is the main category not a secondary category?


Sort posts alphabetically by custom field value, insert divider between different letters

i'm listing all posts of my custom post type "person" alphabetically sorted by the custom field `last_name` on a page. **How would i insert a divider (e.g. an image of the letter) before a letter range starts?** Here's what i'm trying to do: ![alphabetical list with dividers](http://i.stack.imgur.com/xA3sc.jpg) **Update:**   Here's the code i'm using:
     <?php query_posts('post_type=person&post_status=publish&meta_key=last_name&orderby=meta_value&order=ASC');      if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>         <li data-id="<?php the_ID(); ?>">             <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="ensemble-single-link">                 <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { the_post_thumbnail(thumbnail); } ?>
     <?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>


Allow Editors to edit pending posts but not draft ones

I have a large number of users with Editor Capabilities that help to go through the post submissions. This is my current setup for this role: ![Editor Capabilities](http://i.stack.imgur.com/2QA2x.png) As you can see, they are allowed to `edit_posts` and `edit_others_posts` but they cannot `edit_published_posts`. This means that they can edit posts that are in _Draft_ and _Pending_ status. Now, I want to restrict them to **only** be able to edit pending posts. So, they won't have the ability to touch draft posts ( **unless** if they are the author of the post). Unfortunately there is no capability like `edit_pending_posts`... _there should be_. How do I solve this?

Is it possible to add taxonomies to user profiles?

I would like to know if it's possible to add taxonomies in the user profile, without hacks. So far I have been able to add taxonomies to custom post types and all, but now I would like to add it to the user profile. I know how to add custom fields to the user profile, but so far failed on taxonomies. The closest I got to find a solution was: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/applying-custom-taxonomies-to-user-profiles As a newbie trying to find it there is a better solution. Thank you for reading and helping out.


Allow tags between shortcode in comments

On my personal blog, I would like commentors to be able to post code using certain shortcodes (eg [html], [css], [js], [php]). I still want to strip tags for comments for security reasons, but allow them between those shortcodes. When I write a test comment, "`[html]<p>sample code</p>[/html]`" becomes "`[html]<p>sample code</p>[/html]`". To get around this, I came up with the following code but I cannot get it to work. Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks!               function process_code_tags($comment)     {       $comment = preg_replace_callback('/(\[html\])(.*?)(\[\/html\])/imsu',  create_function('$matches', 'return $matches[0].htmlspecialchars_decode($matches[1]).$matches[2];'), $comment);             return $comment;     }     //add_filter('preprocess_comment', 'process_code_tags');     add_filter('comment_text', 'process_code_tags', 9);


Check child/parent categories if exists

i am serching a WP function that controls is there any child category/ies of current category (in category.php outside of the loop) and if there is, just add link list for that category/ies to page, otherwise (there is no child category for current) list all post(s) in this category. Thanks in advance...


Open posts in editor in the 'Text' mode by default

I have a few posts where there are some code segments. When I try to make small edits in the post, it opens in the 'Visual' mode and all the non- alphanumeric characters (e.g. `>`) are converted to their html equivalents (e.g. `>`). Also I lose all the indentation. I would like to open all posts in the 'Text' mode by default. Is it possible to do that?
