wordpress Using Custom Fields

by in , 0

Dump out all custom fields as a list

<?php the_meta(); ?>

Display value of one specific custom field

<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'mood', true); ?>

"mood" would be ID value of custom field

Display multiple values of same custom field ID

<?php $songs = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'songs', false); ?>
<h3>This post inspired by:</h3>
<ul>
	<?php foreach($songs as $song) {
		echo '<li>'.$song.'</li>';
	} ?>
</ul>

<?php 
    $url = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'snippet-reference-URL', true); 

	if ($url) {
	    echo "<p><a href='$url'>Reference URL</a></p>";

These buttons (like one for adding an <hr> tag) aren't there by default in the WordPress visual editor, but you can turn them on pretty easily. This is code for your active theme's functions.php file, or make a functionality plugin.

function add_more_buttons($buttons) {
 $buttons[] = 'hr';
 $buttons[] = 'del';
 $buttons[] = 'sub';
 $buttons[] = 'sup';
 $buttons[] = 'fontselect';
 $buttons[] = 'fontsizeselect';

wordpress Shortcode in a Template

by in , 0

Shortcodes in WordPress are bits of text you can use in the content area to invoke some kind of function to accomplish certain tasks. For example, video embedding in WP 2.9+ uses the shortcode. You can write your own shortcodes, and plugins often offer their functionality via shortcodes as well.

But what if you want to use a shortcode from within a template instead of with the content of a Post/Page? You can invoke it with a special function:

<?php echo do_shortcode("[shortcode]"); ?>

wordpress Reset Admin Password Through Database

by in , 0

You'll need to be able to run SQL on that database, like for example, through phpMyAdmin.

UPDATE `wp_users` SET `user_pass` = MD5( 'new_password_here' ) WHERE `wp_users`.`user_login` = "admin_username";

wordpress Reset Admin Password in Database

by in , 0

Forget your admin password and don't have access to the email account it's under? If you can get access to phpMyAdmin (or anything you can run mySQL commands), you can update it there.

UPDATE `wp_users` SET `user_pass` = MD5( 'new_password_here' ) WHERE `wp_users`.`user_login` = "admin_username";

Just replace new_password_here with the new password and admin_username with the real admin accounts usename.

wordpress Remove Whitespace from Function Output

by in , 0

In WordPress, there are many functions which output things for you. For example, wp_list_pages() outputs a list of all your published pages. The HTML markup it spits out is pretty nicely formatted (meaning: has line breaks and indenting).

There are some circumstances where all that "whitespace" in the formatting is undesirable. Like 1) it's all the more characters to deliver and 2) closing "the gap" in older versions of IE.

If the function supports a way to return a string (rather than immediately echo it), you can use a regex to remove the space:

<?php
   echo preg_replace('/>\s+</m', '><', wp_list_pages('echo=0'));
?>

wordpress Remove the 28px Push Down from the Admin Bar

by in , 0

For your functions.php file:

  add_action('get_header', 'my_filter_head');

  function my_filter_head() {
    remove_action('wp_head', '_admin_bar_bump_cb');
  }

By default, if you are seeing the admin bar as a logged in WordPress user, CSS like this will be output in your head (output in the wp_head() function):

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
	html { margin-top: 28px !important; }
	* html body { margin-top: 28px !important; }
</style>

This is normally a good thing, as it doesn't cover parts of your site then with its fixed-position-ness. But it can also be weird if you use absolute positioning for things. As they will be different depending on if the bar is there or not. Using the code above to remove the bump CSS will make the bar cover the top bit of your site, but at least the positioning will be consistent.

	$replacewith = array(

wordpress Remove Paragraph Tags From Around Images

by in , 0

In case you want to have <img> in your content but not have them get "Auto P'd" like WordPress likes to do.

example of problem:

blah blah blah

<img src="monkey.jpg">

blah blah blah

turns into:

<p>blah blah blah</p>

<p><img src="monkey.jpg"></p>

<p>blah blah blah</p>

We can fix it with this:

function filter_ptags_on_images($content){
   return preg_replace('/<p>\s*(<a .*>)?\s*(<img .* \/>)\s*(<\/a>)?\s*<\/p>/iU', '\1\2\3', $content);
}

add_filter('the_content', 'filter_ptags_on_images');

For your functions.php file, or, see Reference URL for a plugin. With this in place, we get:

<p>blah blah blah</p>

<img src="monkey.jpg">

<p>blah blah blah</p>

... meaning things like floating the images will be much easier.

wordpress Remove Admin Bar For Subscribers

by in , 0

You might want open registration on your WordPress site so that (for one small example) people can log in and leave comments on things without needing to type their name/url/email every time. But these users probably don't need to see the whole top admin bar as there likely isn't much use in it for them. Although do be sure to provide a link to edit their profile and log out.

This would be for your functions.php file or functionality plugin:

add_action('set_current_user', 'cc_hide_admin_bar');
function cc_hide_admin_bar() {
  if (!current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
    show_admin_bar(false);
  }
}

wordpress Recent Posts Function

by in , 0

Technique #1

This function is useful when you need to display content, excerpt, custom fields, or anything related to the post beyond it's link and title. If you just need a list of linked titles, see the next technique. Put the following function in functions.php

function recent_posts($no_posts = 10, $excerpts = true) {

   global $wpdb;

   $request = "SELECT ID, post_title, post_excerpt FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish' AND post_type='post' ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT $no_posts";

   $posts = $wpdb->get_results($request);

   if($posts) {

               foreach ($posts as $posts) {
                       $post_title = stripslashes($posts->post_title);
                       $permalink = get_permalink($posts->ID);

                       $output .= '<li><h2><a href="' . $permalink . '" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: ' . htmlspecialchars($post_title, ENT_COMPAT) . '">' . htmlspecialchars($post_title) . '</a></h2>';

                       if($excerpts) {
                               $output.= '<br />' . stripslashes($posts->post_excerpt);
                       }

                       $output .= '</li>';
               }

       } else {
               $output .= '<li>No posts found</li>';
       }

   echo $output;
}

Usage

After you've made the function. Put the following in the sidebar or wherever you like the recent posts to list..

<?php recent_posts(); ?>

You can give it 2 arguments, the first is the number of posts and the second is whether or not you want to display the excerpts. so recent_posts(2, false) will display the 2 most recent post titles.

Technique #2

<?php wp_get_archives( array(

    'type'            => 'postbypost',   // or daily, weekly, monthly, yearly
    'limit'           => 10,   // maximum number shown
    'format'          => 'html',   // or select (dropdown), link, or custom (then need to also pass before and after params for custom tags
    'show_post_count' => false,    // show number of posts per link
    'echo'            => 1     // display results or return array

) ); ?> 

Technique #3

More succinct version of #1, which also includes a more standardized query string.

<?php
   $recentposts = get_posts('numberposts=12&category=4');
   foreach ($recentposts as $post) :
       setup_postdata($post); ?>
       <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>

Adds stylesheet with time of last update. If the number changes the browser updates the CSS instead of using cached version. Easily amended to be none WP specific.

wordpress Output Excerpt Manually

by in , 0

There is always the_excerpt(), but that does some pretty specific stuff (e.g. adding paragraph tags, adding [...], not respect the more comment, use the saved excerpt...). Advanced Excerpt is pretty good at customizing that.

<?php 
  $content = get_the_content(); 
  echo substr(strip_tags($content), 0, 130) . '...';

This is a direct edit to a core file: /wp-includes/query.php Note the plus signs in the above code indicate new lines to add.

Author Notes:

A client wanted me to setup a custom field called "Guide Rank" which allowed them to assign #1 - 20 for a list of Bars they were posting about.

After running the posts query I found that the meta_value was being treated as a string and as such the sort order was jumbled:

eg. 1, 10, 2, 3css-tricks.comC 7 , 8 , 9

To get WordPress/MySQL to use "Natural Sort Order" you just need to apply +0 to the field name and it'll be treated as a number (eg. meta_value+0).

So that existing behavior is not interrupted I've just added the new type 'meta_value_num'.

My query line now looks like:

$guide_posts = new WP_Query("cat=12&meta_key=guide_rank&orderby=meta_value_num&order=ASC&showposts=10");

Which returns: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

This is up for inclusion in the WordPress trunk - so hopefully once it gets applied there should be no need for manually editing the file.

wordpress List Posts, Highlight Current

by in , 0

WordPress lacks a wp_list_posts() function that might seem logical go with the robust and useful wp_list_pages() function. You can simulate it though, by using the get_posts() function and running your own loop through the results.

The parameters for get_posts() below are just examples, replace with your needs.

<ul>

    <?php
        $lastposts = get_posts('numberposts=5&orderby=rand&cat=-52');
        foreach($lastposts as $post) :
        setup_postdata($post); ?>

        <li<?php if ( $post->ID == $wp_query->post->ID ) { echo ' class="current"'; } else {} ?>>
            
            <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
            
        </li>

    <?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

wp_list_pages() also has the feature of adding a class name of "current_page_item" to the list element when that page is the active one. Notice the opening list tag above, which replicates that functionality by seeing if the ID from the current query matches the ID from the current iteration of the loop.

wordpress Insert Images within Figure Element from Media Uploader

by in , 0

For your functions.php file or a functionality plugin:

function html5_insert_image($html, $id, $caption, $title, $align, $url) {
  $html5 = "<figure id='post-$id media-$id' class='align-$align'>";
  $html5 .= "<img src='$url' alt='$title' />";
  if ($caption) {
    $html5 .= "<figcaption>$caption</figcaption>";
  }
  $html5 .= "</figure>";
  return $html5;
}
add_filter( 'image_send_to_editor', 'html5_insert_image', 10, 9 );

It also takes what you enter as a caption and inserts it within the <figure> tag as a <figcaption>. Example inserted code:

<figure id='post-18838 media-18838' class='align-none'>
  <img src='http://youresite.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/image.png' alt='Title of image'>
  <figcaption>Caption for image</figcaption>
</figure>

  $html5 = "<figure id='post-$id media-$id' class='align-$align'>";
  $html5 .= "<img src='$url' alt='$title' />";
  if ($caption) {
    $html5 .= "<figcaption>$caption</figcaption>";
  }
  $html5 .= "</figure>";
  return $html5;
}
add_filter( 'image_send_to_editor', 'html5_insert_image', 10, 9 );

wordpress Include jQuery in WordPress Theme

by in , 0

The following is the best way to go about it. Add the following to the theme's functions.php file:

if (!is_admin()) add_action("wp_enqueue_scripts", "my_jquery_enqueue", 11);
function my_jquery_enqueue() {
   wp_deregister_script('jquery');
   wp_register_script('jquery', "http" . ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 443 ? "s" : "") . "://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js", false, null);
   wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

Replace the URL with the location of what version of jQuery you want to use.

wordpress If Page Is Parent or Child

by in , 0

There are built in conditional WordPress functions for testing for a page:

if ( is_page(2) ) {
  // stuff
}

Or for testing if a page is a child of a certain page:

if ( $post->post_parent == '2' ) {
  // stuff
}

But there is no built in function that combines these two things, which is a fairly common need. For example, loading a special CSS page for a whole "branch" of content. Like a "videos" page and all its children individual videos pages.

This function (add to functions.php file) creates new logical function to be used in this way:

function is_tree($pid) {      // $pid = The ID of the page we're looking for pages underneath
	global $post;         // load details about this page
	if(is_page()&&($post->post_parent==$pid||is_page($pid))) 
               return true;   // we're at the page or at a sub page
	else 
               return false;  // we're elsewhere
};

Usage

if (is_tree(2)) {
   // stuff
}

wordpress ID the Body Based on URL

by in , 0

<?php
	$url = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
	$dir = $url[1] ? $url[1] : 'home';
?>

<body id="<?php echo $dir ?>">

This would turn http://domain.tld/blog/home into "blog" (the second level of the URL structure). If at the root, it will return "home".

Here is an alternate method:

<?php
       $page = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
       $page = str_replace("/","",$page);
       $page = str_replace(".php","",$page);
       $page = str_replace("?s=","",$page);
       $page = $page ? $page : 'index'
?>

This would turn http://domain.tld/blog/home into "domaintldbloghome", which is far more specific. It also will remove ".php" file extensions and the default WordPress search parameter.

More Secure Method

function curr_virtdir($echo=true){
        $url = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
        $dir = $url[1] ? $url[1] : 'home'; // defaults to this if in the root
        $dir = htmlentities(trim(strip_tags($dir))); // prevent injection into the DOM through this function
        if ($echo) echo $dir;
        return echo $dir; // ie. curr_virtdir(false)
}
function get_curr_virtdir(){
        curr_virtdir(false);
}

Returns the "middle" directory value:

On http://css-tricks.com it would return "home"
On http://css-tricks.com/snippets it would return "snippets"
On http://css-tricks.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=6 it would return "forums"

The strip_tags() and htmlentities() functions prevent malicious code from being insterted into the URL and ran, e.g.

<body id="foo"><script>alert("Booo");</script>

Usage for IDing the body:

<body id="<?php curr_virtdir(); ?>">

Other usage:

<?php
  if ( get_curr_virtdir() == "store" ){
    echo "Welcome to our awesome store !";
  } elseif ( get_curr_virtdir() == "home" ){
    echo "Welcome home :-)";
  } else {
    echo "Welcome on some other page";
  }
?>
