title: How can I open WP rich editor within colorbox in the front end?

text: I have a site on which I've created a form to add new posts. The form opens in colorbox and I want it to contain a rich editor. I've added this code:               <?php     $args = array('textarea_rows' => 15, 'media_buttons' => false);     wp_editor( '', 'editor_content_1', $args );     ?>      instead of a textarea. The WP editor is displayed but the rich editor buttons does not appear and it doesn't work well. You can see the actual site here - link directly to that element. The "colorbox" opens when pressing the `\+ Add New` button This is the Button, it's around 2/3 of the page ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/tvhku.png)


title: JetPack comment threads are displaying above comment box?

text: As you can see in the attached image (http://i.imgur.com/V7642.png) my JetPack comments are rendering above the Discuss box. How do I go about moving them down? When I look in Chrome Inspector there doesn't even seem to be any Class or ID for me to latch onto to bring them down. In my theme I am using the following code to place the entire comment form:               <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>

text: If a post has tags, I would like to show only those tags as a list in the sidebar when viewing the single post; how do I do this? I have searched to find a suitable plugin, but didn't find one, as all the ones I've looked up end up showing every tags on the site or for categories. I'm happy to go with a non-plugin solution.

title: Running WordPress on low-end hardware/resources?

text: I knew about Atom-based dedicated servers, but these plug-class servers take it to whole new level of low-end extreme. Most of WordPress optimization talk is about surviving on shared hosting or scaling up. I got curious - how viable is it to run WordPress on such low-end, but dedicated hardware? At which point will CPU or slow storage become bottleneck? How will it compare to generic shared hosting (even lower resources, but no neighbors and freedom to optimize).


title: Adding Page Attributes Metabox and Page Templates to the Posts Edit Page?

text:
_( **Moderators note:** Title was originally "How can I add the "Page Attributes" and/or "Page Attributes > Template" selector to POSTS editor")_ WP currently only allows the assignment of a "template" to Pages (i.e. `post_type=='page'`.) I'd like to extend this functionality to Posts as well (i.e. `post_type=='post'`.) How can I add the _"Page Attributes"_ meta box and more specifically, the template switcher to the posts editor? I'm assuming this is code I will place in my `functions.php` for my theme. UPDATE: I've managed to add the hardcoded templates pulldown menu to my post editor, by simply adding the select box html to my existing custom meta options box. Here's the code I'm using for that...               add_meta_box('categorydiv2', __('Post Options'), 'post_categories_meta_box_modified', 'post', 'side', 'high');      And here's the function that writes out the options and the template select box...               //adds the custom categories box     function post_categories_meta_box_modified() {         global $post;         if( get_post_meta($post->ID, '_noindex', true) ) $noindexChecked = " checked='checked'";         if( get_post_meta($post->ID, '_nofollow', true) ) $nofollowChecked = " checked='checked'";     ?>

<input value="noIndex" type="checkbox" name="chk_noIndex" id="chk_noIndex"<?php echo $noindexChecked ?> /> noindex

<input value="noFollow" type="checkbox" name="chk_noFollow" id="chk_noFollow"<?php echo $nofollowChecked ?> /> nofollow

Template
          Post Template<select name="page_template" id="page_template">          <option value='default'>Default Template</option>          <option value='template-wide.php' >No Sidebar</option>         <option value='template-salespage.php' >Salespage</option>         </select>
     <?php     }      And finally, the code to capture the selected values on save...               function save_post_categories_meta($post_id) {         if ( defined('DOING_AUTOSAVE') && DOING_AUTOSAVE ) return $post_id;         $noIndex = $_POST['chk_noIndex'];         $noFollow = $_POST['chk_noFollow'];         update_post_meta( $post_id, '_noindex', $noIndex );         update_post_meta( $post_id, '_nofollow', $noFollow );         return $post_id;     }      Now, I believe all that's left is (1) capturing the selected template and adding it to the post meta for this post and (2) modifying index.php and single.php so that it uses the chosen template.


title: Facebook-like Notification Plugin for WordPress Community Blog Sites?

text: I am a member of a community blog site run by WordPress engine. But I often feel that if there were a notification system like Facebook tracking the site would be much easier. I know about the notification emails and RSS feeds but those do not serve the whole purpose.

title: Preventing Duplicating Posts from Widgets

text:
I am making a theme that has the main loop in a widget. Also widgetized is a feature slider and a display of four feature post boxes, each with their own loop. How do I prevent duplicate posts from appearing in my main loop widget when the other feature widgets are also displayed? I know I have to declare a global variable and assign that variable an array of the posts IDs from the feature widgets I want to exclude from my main loop widget. Below is the sample code from the three widgets. Feature Slider Loop:               <?php global $themename_do_not_duplicate;     $themename_do_not_duplicate = array();     $arr = array();     $i=1;     $width = $instance['ImgWidth'];     $height = $instance['ImgHeight'];     $cat_posts = new WP_Query("showposts=" . $instance["featuredNum"] . "&cat=" .       $instance["cat"]);     while ($cat_posts->have_posts()) : $cat_posts->the_post() $themename_do_not_duplicate[] = $posts->ID;?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>">                 <?php                 $post_title = get_the_title();                 $thumbnail = get_thumbnail($width,$height,'thumb',$post_title,$post_title);                 $thumb = $thumbnail["thumb"];                 print_thumbnail($thumb, $thumbnail["use_timthumb"], $post_title, $width, $height, 'thumb'); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

         <?php endwhile; wp_reset_query();   ?>      A loop from another Feature loop - this widget actually has four loops like the one below:               <?php query_posts("showposts=1&cat=".get_catId($instance['catOption4']));                        while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $themename_do_not_duplicate[] = $post->ID;?>          stuff             <?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>      The main loop widget               <?php global $themename_do_not_duplicate;           if ($instance['NoRepeatPost'] == 1)   {$arrgs=array('posts_per_page'=>$instance['postNum'],'post__not_in' => $themename_do_not_duplicate,'paged'=>$paged,);}  else {$arrgs=array('posts_per_page'=>$instance['postNum'],'paged'=>$paged,);}     query_posts($arrgs);          if(have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();$themename_do_not_duplicate[] = $post->ID; //begin the loop ?> stuff  <?php endif;wp_reset_query(); //and so ends the loop ?>      I have put the `global $themename_do_not_duplicate` in the header. What do do, oh what to do?


title: How to debug a plugin with Xdebug?

text: I was able to install and setup quite easily NetBeans 6.9.1 and Xdebug on my local environment, based on PHP 5.3.0 (XAMPP).

If instead I put a breakpoint on a plugin file, an trigger the code execution NetBeans does not stop there. Do you known how can be solved? **UPDATE:** More info about what I am trying to debug Plugin is called **Vanilla Forums** and has the following file structure:               - plugins       - vanilla-forums         + assets         + nbproject         + templates           admin.php           embed.php           functions.php           hooks.php           plugin.php           sso.php           widgets.php      I set the breakpoint inside a function named `vf_validate_options` defined in `functions.php`. I am sure that this function is executed, but NetBeans does not break there.

I've run into this error today and I can't find anyway to get past it. Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /members/index.php on line 1 The site is running WP 3.2.1 and BuddyPress 1.2.9 and uses the Arras 1.5.1.2 theme. The error only appears on the BuddyPress index page (http://towermix.com/home/members), but the rest of the site and the other parts of BuddyPress work as advertised. I've looked at that index.php file, which is came from the BuddyPress Template Pack plugin (and makes any theme BuddyPress compatible) and it's nothing unusual for a theme header call.

I have to be able to both **title the child posts** and **present them in a menu on the parent post and child posts of the parent** (the same menu on both the parent and child post). I considered wp_link_pages, but that does not allow a menu of child posts nor real titling of each child post. I hope somebody has a solution they may be willing to share.


title: pre_get_posts Tax Query not working for custom author page

text: I am using the theme TwentyTwelve and modified the standard post query in the file author.php with the following code:               function wpd_author_query( $query ) {     //CODE to set $current_user_name here     //This gets the author from the URL     $author = get_user_by('slug',get_query_var('author_name'));     $current_user_name = $author->user_nicename;              if ( $query->is_author() && $query->is_main_query()) {                 // your code to set $current_user_name here                 $query->set( 'meta_key', '_writer_relation_added_date_'.$current_user_name );                 $query->set( 'orderby', 'meta_value_num' );                 $query->set( 'post_status', $post_status );                      $tax_query = array(                       array(                         'taxonomy' => 'writer',                         'field' => 'name',                         'terms' => $current_user_name                     )                 );                 $query->set( 'tax_query', $tax_query );         }                    }     add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'wpd_author_query' );      However, the tax_query is not working for the author page. It is still not retrieving the posts in the writer taxonomy. I did try applying that code for other pages such as is_home() is_archive() and it does work. So, there must be a conflict in with wordpress and the author template page that is not allowing me to use the tax_query for retrieving posts in the writer taxonomy.


title: WordPress Network Feature

text: I have to create a simple network of websites (different sub-domains) using WordPress. There are just going to be 3 or 4 such websites. I know that WordPress MU was integrated directly within WordPress 3.0 and I can create a Network and use it. Are there any pitfalls or disadvantages that I should be aware of if I go for this route? Or, generally what are your thoughts on WP 3 Networks?


title: Is it better practice to use 'This Name Format' or 'this-name-format' for custom fields?

text: I've seen in various tutorials where people white the custom field Name in this fashion: intro-image. I thought I would make more sense to use (user friendly names instead of something that looks like a variable). Is using hyphen (or underscore) a good practice?


title: Custom Field is getting the value of another page/post instead of the current one?

text:
I'm using this same come in two files: `single.php` and `home.php`: (Outside of the loop). (There is a `#mainbar` div in both **single posts** and **home page** but the image should be different)               <?php // Set and display custom field             $mainbar_right_title = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Mainbar Right Title', true);             $mainbar_right_image = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Mainbar Right Image', true); ?>

<?php echo $mainbar_right_title; ?>
                 <img src="<?php echo $mainbar_right_image ?>" alt="" />
 <?php         ?>
      I thought the **home page** would get the value of its own custom field but instead is getting the value of the **single post**. Is this a default behaviour or I'm doing something wrong? **EDIT:** I tried adding a value to another single post and the image is indeed the one of the post not of the another so the problem is only the home page. home.php:               <?php     /**      * Template Name: Home      * @package WordPress      * @subpackage Prominent      * @since Prominent 1.0      */     get_header(); ?>          <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

title: Pretty permalinks and Facebook comments

text: I have pretty permalinks enabled like this:               http://domain.com/category/post_name      I also use facebook comments widget for the comments, Currently the `href` attribute is set to the pretty permalink by calling `the_permalink()`. The issue is that if i ever happen to edit the post name (slug) or the category, Facebook thinks it's a new URL so the old comments are not displayed anymore. I tried fixing the issue by pointing the `href` to the non-pretty permalink like: `http://domain.com/?p=XXX` but now Facebook shows a warning that it can't reach the URL, that's because WP redirects non-pretty urls to pretty with a 301 redirect. Any idea how to work around this?


title: Get all the contents of taxonomy and sort by term

title: Storing state between hook functions

text: I have two functions which I'm hooking into a plugin. Both functions are called (at different times) during a single page creation by the server. I want to set a flag in function_a which can be read by function_b. **Question: Is there any problem with just declaring my flag in the global scope? Is there a preferred WP-style for doing this?** ps. I realize that I will need to be defensive when function_b reads the flag --by making sure that the value was explicitly set, etc.


title: Only display authors who have posts

text:
I am using the code below to display all authors and their posts (in a custom post type called "publication"). This works, however it also lists users who do not have posts. How can I adapt this code to only show authors who have posts? Thank you!
Articles by Author
              <?php          $allUsers = get_users('orderby=title&order=ASC&post_type=publication');         $users = array();         // Remove subscribers from the list as they won't write any articles         foreach($allUsers as $currentUser)         {             if(!in_array( 'subscriber', $currentUser->roles ))             {                 $users[] = $currentUser;             }         }         ?>              <?php foreach($users as $user) { ?>

<?php echo $user->display_name; ?>
               <?php query_posts( array( 'post_type' => 'publication', 'showposts' => -1, 'author'=>$user->ID ) ); while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>                 <?php the_content(); ?>                 <?php endwhile; ?>
              <?php } ?>      UPDATE: Using the function from the answer below and a few things I read last night, here's what I have now (still not working as requested above, but wanted to give you my most recent code):               <?php           // count number of Articles (CPT) written by a user     function count_user_posts_by_type( $userid, $post_type = 'publication' ) {         global $wpdb;         $where = get_posts_by_author_sql( $post_type, true, $userid );         $count = $wpdb->get_var( "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts $where" );         return $count;               $post_count = count_user_posts_by_type($userid, $post_type);     $allUsers = get_users('orderby=title&order=ASC&post_type=publication&role=author');     $users = array();          // CONDITIONAL -- IS THIS CORRECT?     if ($post_count > 0 ) {          // Remove subscribers from the list as they won't write any articles     foreach($allUsers as $currentUser)     {         if(!in_array( 'subscriber', $currentUser->roles ))         {             $users[] = $currentUser;         }     }     foreach($users as $user) { ?>

title: Customise the add media pop-up to include rel attribute option

text: So many jQuery light boxes these days use the 'rel' attribute to identify objects that should be targeted. Unfortunately when it comes to Wordpress, when inserting a thumbnail/link, to add a rel attribute you have to either edit the html source code or pull up a separate pop-up after the initial insert. This makes the process complicated for some less confident users. What I want to be able to do is include, in the insert media pop-up, a checkbox to add a rel='lightbox' attribute to the tag when inserted. While I am quite confident when it comes to theme development, I wouldn't know where to start modifying Wordpress admin functionality. Can somebody point me in the right direction?


title: the_excerpt(), get_the_excerpt() and the_content() all killing "the Loop"

text:
Before I call the_excerpt(), the_permalink() displays the correct thing. Afterwards, it does not...                           <?php                  global $query_string;                      //strip out the "pagename=blog" so that the query will grab all of the posts instead of the content of the blog page                 $query_string = preg_replace("/pagename=[a-zA-Z0-9]*/", "", $query_string);                 query_posts( $query_string . "posts_per_page=3" );                      if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

Posted on <?php print get_the_date(); ?> by <?php the_author(); ?> in <?php the_category(', ') ?>
                                                                   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<a class="alignright" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">READ MORE »

                  <?php endwhile; else: ?>
<?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?>
                 <?php endif; ?>      I have a page called "blog.php" that I have defined as a Template named "blog" that people can apply to a page they create (so that they can have a blog listing page, I know there is probably a better way, but this is the solution that was gone with for various reasons). It was working just fine, but now (a month after I wrote it) it suddenly stopped working. I have narrowed the problem (I think) down to the the_excerpt() call. The permalink displays fine before that, but afterwards craps out and instead displays the permalink for the blog.php page... I think that the_excerpt() is throwing everything completely out of "The Loop" and then the current post it sees just becomes the page that uses the blog.php template (it spits the contents of that page out and then stops as if that page were the last post in The Loop). This also happens if I replace "the_excerpt()" with "the_content()" or "get_the_excerpt()"


title: How to enable a site administrator to edit users in a WordPress network/ multisite setup?

text: I have a few sites in a network. I don't want the site administrators to manage things like network plugins, but I would like them to be able to edit profiles of all network users, not use those on their site.

title: Wordpress Tiny MCE won't accept line breaks

text: Encountered an infuriating issue where I f i want to add multiple linebreaks   for layout between paragraphs, Wordpress doesn't recognize them in th wysiwig editor. If I enter them in the code window, and publish they DO save, but the next time the Wysiwig is edited and published those breaks disappear. is there a workaround or a plugin hat lets Tinymce handle this better?


title: Including a PHP file via a function that is part of a plugin?

text: I struggled with this all day, and now am here... I have a contact form generated by including a php. Presently, I have this code in my theme's index.php to include it:               if ( is_page('contact') ) {         include("../contact.php");     }      which renders and functions as expected: http://www.derekbeck.com/1775/contact/ However, editing this into the theme is problematic because of theme upgrades (I have to hard code it back in each time) and now, especially, because I'm using a mobile theme for mobile users, who will not see my contact form when they use the mobile theme. Bottom line: I need to put this into a plugin. I know the mechanics of making a plugin, that's not my question. My question is: I cannot seem to figure out a way to properly include the above via a function in my plugin file. For instance, I've tried this:               add_shortcode( 'ContactForm', 'ContactInsert' );          function ContactInsert() {            $file = include(ABSPATH . "../contact.php");            return $file;     }      And I place the shortcode [ContactForm] into the body of my test page, but it renders strange results: http://www.derekbeck.com/1775/test/ (ignore the "1" and "2" which I added for testing) If I make it simply               function ContactInsert() {            ob_start();            include(ABSPATH . "../contact.php");            return ob_get_clean();     }      I get no results on the page, and only have of the theme displays. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! (PS: If I were to simply paste all of that included contact.php into my plugin page, it might work, but it is a very long file, and I have other reasons to keep it separate.)


title: Wordpress Page Protect forwards to Admin Login

text: Once I upgraded to WP 3.4.1, the password protect feature stopped working correctly. The password submit form leads to /wp-login.php?action=postpass and displays the admin login screen. I've sought out answers around the web to no avail, and I've tried disabling all plugins, and still no dice. Does anyone have a solution?


title: Best way of adding CSS which can be manipulated by the user via theme option panels?

text: I thought about adding it as inline CSS with code from the `functions.php` (not really sure how to do it). Something like this:               function addcss() {        background: $this_is_the_css_value;     }      I would like to know that. But if there's is a better option (without adding inline CSS). I would like to know it too.

title: How to use get_results() in widget front end?

title: Help with shortcode in admin-ajax

text: I've been playing around with ajax in wordpress and I've gotten my efforts to work on both back and front-end without too much trouble, however I've run into a problem getting post shortcodes to run when loading `post_content` to the front-end. Here's what I've noticed:               apply_filters( 'the_content', $content );      ..will run but it only wraps my shortcode in `<p>` tags, the way it does in the admin. `do_shortcode()` will work when using `[gallery]` or other native wordpress shortcodes, but not the one i've registered in my plugin. My plugin shortcode does however run in the normal wordpress post page (not ajax). Having read about this, I'm aware that **admin-ajax.php** has **WP_ADMIN** set to **true** and so I think that what happening is that `apply_filters( 'the_content', $content );` runs differently depending on whether `is_admin` or not. Either that or native shortcodes and plugin shortcodes `add_shortcode()` are registered differently and not accessible in the same places. Does anyone have any insight on what's going on here? Much appreciated.

title: Security and .htaccess

text: About a month ago I started a WordPress blog on a hosted server related to a hobby. So, I am new to this at present. Since I'm concerned about security, one thing I did was to install the plugin WP Security Scan. According to the plugin results, my site checks out except that I get this in the results as a red flag: > The file .htaccess does not exist in wp-admin/ (I ssh'd in there and it does > not exist) Ok, so I did a considerable search on the issue and find too much info on .htaccess. I've been through Hardening WordPress on the WordPress.org site, etc. And also ran into this article: http://digwp.com/2010/07/wordpress- security-lockdown/ Anyway, I've basically gotten confused with the plethora of information available. **What should the .htaccess file in wp-admin contain?** I've read that this .htaccess file should password protect the wp-admin directory and I've also read that this can cause functionality problems. Help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks. -wdypdx22 **Update** Ok, so I'm not logged in to my blog and using a different computer than usual. I enter the url www.mysite.com/wordpress/wp-admin/ and there is a redirect to login. If that's what happens, then is an htaccess file even needed in the wp-admin directory?


title: Modifying Search to Exclude results from within short code or HTML

text: I've been struggling with this one for some time and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to fix this. I'm not asking about stripping out short codes or HTML from the excerpt, that's fairly straight forward, what I'm asking about is as follows. Say your search word is "align" and you hit search. I'm getting results where the word align appears in either html or a short code. How do I exclude these results while still returning results that have the word in the normal text i.e. exclude < p class="alignleft"> or [shortcode align=left] while showing "The font was aligned left as a test of the align function in html"

title: Programmatically set 'meta_query' for filter

text: I am trying to set 'meta_query' programaticaly for a filter which is supposed to filter a custom post type depending on the existence of a metakey. I have tried several ways, which I have left in the below code, commented out. None of the solutions change the actual $query 'meta_query' property, which stubbornly remains set to 'false'. I have a feeling that i'm missing something basic. Please assist.

title: Hops / redirects delay loading site

text: I notice my site is quite slow to load when bypassing server and browser cache. The delay can be anywhere between 4 and 20 seconds. Take the login page as an example and looking in Firebug, I can see where the delay is coming from. The hops are: /login (http) /wp-login.php (http) /login/ (http) /login/ (https) ![redirects](http://i.stack.imgur.com/HFsGR.png) I'm using 'Theme my login' plugin to use my own templates instead of the standard WordPress login page, so that explains the jump from /login to /wp- login.php. I'm also forcing the login page to https, so that explains that jump. Is there a way I can make this more efficient and reduce the delays as much as possible?

So the question is how do I define a lookup table that will work across all PHP elements of the template?

Here is a function that i use to schedule event.               add_action( 'scheduled_update_feeds', 'update_feeds', 10, 2 );          function scheduled_activation() {         wp_schedule_event( time(), 'everyhour', 'scheduled_update_feeds', array( 0, 'everyhour' ) );     }     register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'scheduled_activation' );      Per my understandings this should activate on plugin activation and pass schedule event based on my settings. When I use it **without array args it works** , but I need to use args to pass them my scheduled function. And this is the function               function update_feeds($ids = false, $timing = false) {         do something     }      When i use it like this it works.               wp_schedule_event( time(), 'everyhour', 'scheduled_update_feeds' );      Even if I don't use args in my update_feed function it doesn't work either. The strange thing is that when I use single schedule it works. like this               wp_schedule_single_event( time() + 10, 'scheduled_update_feeds', array($ids) );      So I don't get it why it won't work. And I did defined 'everyhour' in my scheduled list.               add_filter( 'cron_schedules', 'my_schedule' );           $schedules['everyhour'] = array(         'interval' => 60,         'display' => __( 'Every hour', 'easy-video-grabber' )     );      I checked its existance with the _Cron Schedules_ plugin and the schedule exists.


title: Correct code to use php in text widget

text: This code is used to display php inside a text widget               add_filter('widget_text','execute_php',100);     function execute_php($html){         if(strpos($html,"<"."?php")!==false){                              ob_start();                              eval("?".">".$html);             $html=ob_get_contents();             ob_end_clean();          }     return $html;     }      I'm currently using it in my theme. I'm constantly looking for better ways to do things. Every google search and website returned tells you to use this code or code similiar to this. With one google search I came up with this question How to allow PHP In WordPress text widget. One user came up with code similiar to this to which @Mark Kaplun commented that it will break anything that starts with `<?` My question now is, I like to use the text widget to quickly test code like say something like related posts before coding it into my theme. Creating a shortcode here is unneccesary. Is there a better way to allow php in a text widget.


title: Loop custom taxonomy to get lists of cutom post types?

text: I have a custom post type 'products' and custom taxonomy of 'maker' that i have connected to that cpt 'products'. I have written this code :                 <?php $myproducts = new WP_Query(array('post_type' => 'products', 'maker'=>'samsung')); ?>       <?php while($myproducts->have_posts()) : $myproducts->the_post(); ?>            <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>            <?php endwhile; ?>       <?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>      and this allows me to loop products from one of added makers (in this case samsung). What I am actually trying to do is to create a page that will loop through all of items from 'maker' taxonomy that a client might add to it. It would be great if I could use these elements of the 'maker' taxonomy to show lists of all 'products' that belong to those makers. Basically loop the taxonomy elements and use those results to loop all products that belong to those makers. Sorry if i'm being redundant, I'm just trying to be as specific as a beginner might be. Thank you all.


title: Displaying a custom field containing a list creates unwanted markup

text:
I display my custom field like this :
<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $my_field, true); ?>
      As long as the field contains plain text, the markup is normal :
something
      But if I put some HTML list in it, the content jumps out of the P tags and some additional P tags are even added :

something

something

      Why is that and how to fix the problem ?

I don't want admin to be able to see it as single post anyhow. There's no template defined for such.


title: Get first comment link on the post itself

text:
I have this function and a link to a post:               <?php     foreach ($results as $id) {       $post = &get_post( $id->ID );       setup_postdata($post);
<a <?php href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?>
       <?php     } ?>      What I want to do is this: if there is a comment posted **today** , than show me the link to the first comment that has been posted. So for example: if there are 4 comments made today, I want the link to the first comment instead of the permalink just like now. I tried using this:   `<a <?php href="<?php the_permalink(get_comments->$post_id) ?>">postname</a>` and variations of this like `comment_post_ID`, but I could not get it to work. What am I doing wrong and what should I do? Please, help me...

title: Multisite subdirectory blogs missing slash

text: New WordPress 3.5.2 multisite (subdirectory) install is missing a slash when creating new blogs. WordPress is installed to server like: > blogs.domain.com When a new user registers, the conformation email has the URL for their blog like: > blogs.domain.comnewuser (missing the / between the domain and blog name).

title: Using Same User Database on Subdomain

text: How can I create a subdomain that uses the same database as the main domain? For example, I have `mywebsite.com` which has my main WordPress installation. I also want, say, `subdomain.mywebsite.com` which has the same user base. I know I can simply use queries on the database, but this seems like an unnecessary workaround. I also need to allow the user to log on to the subdomain, but the account is the same for both the subdomain AND the main domain. How can I accomplish this? I've tried using multisite but I was unable to figure it out. Thanks!


title: The best way to add stylesheets to WordPress

text: I am in the process of converting a mobile responsive page, currently built in Bootstrap into WordPress. Using `wp_register_style()` and `wp_enqueue_style()` will add the stylesheets to all pages, including the wp-admin. I know I could get around that by using an `if ( ! is_admin() )` conditional statement. Is it better to use the conditional statement, or to just to use:               <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/bootstrap.css" media="screen" />      in the theme's header.php?


title: Enabling canonical links to force search engines to go to site.com rather than site.net

text: I want visitors who have typed `site.com`, stay on `site.com` and visitors who have come to `site.net`, stay at `site.net` (They have one host and `site.net` has been parked on `.com`). When it comes to search engines, because of SEO they should understand that the both domain are locating to the same host. I know that I should do it with **canonical links**. I searched and got that I should install **WordPress SEO Plugin** located at http://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/#canonical But now I see that the image at the link which is: ![what I should see](http://i.stack.imgur.com/hSa1N.png), is different from what I see at my wordpress admin panel: ![what I see](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ztbUE.png) So I have only 3 options: **Leave default** (selected right now), **http** and finally **https**. I expected to have a text box so that I could enter `site.com` to force google redirect visitors to `site.com`; Also note that my version is different what I should see as the the example has stated. * * * **IF** the solution with Yoast wordpress SEO plugin is the best way, please help me to understand what should I do. **ELSE IF**!!! you know a better solution, please tell me to use the new one!

text: I have been asked to build another site for someone else. Eventually, I will turn it over to them. I will develop it locally, then take it live, then turn over full control.

I would hate to have export my database along with someone else's.

title: CSS from textarea in options page to frontend what to do

text: I have a textarea for small css enhancements on the plugins page i output them directly to the head. My Question is how to sanitize the CSS i have validation function registered for the options with `register_setting`. On the setting page right now `$output['css'] = (string) $input['css'];` is all what i am doing. Should i escape it somehow? What does word-press with it? Does it some escaping by itself for database? I could there some evil injection take place here. For output i use the `esc_attr()` so far its working great but i just want to ask if there is something better for it. I just tested `"` characters they are obviously translated into `"` i just tested it and they seem not to break the CSS in firefox but of course this feels bad. So what should i use instead?               echo '<style type="text/css" media="screen">' . esc_attr( $css ) . '</style>';      Btw I don't care about `"` you only don't really need them in CSS or am i wrong you can do url("bla") or url(bla) and both work. Or is there a reason of support `"`s in CSS? Update1: After 2 answers, a lot if talk and thinking i still like to know if my thought process is so wrong to escape it twice now with wp_filter_nohtml_kses() on database input **and on output**. I would be be happy to get a answer from someone with security expertise. Update2: I just notices that wp_filter_nohtml_kses() would not allow `>` or `<` since they are CSS selectors maybe it isn't the right filter after all. Maybe other things it filters that i might want in CSS?


title: wp_insert_post or wp_set_post_terms do not save taxonomy, but wp_set_post_terms does

text: I have a litlle problem. I have a custom taxonomy 'rodzaj' with value i.ex. obrazek.

I tried also this:               wp_set_object_terms($postId, "obrazek", 'rodzaj', false);      Doesn't work too. Working code is:               wp_set_post_terms( $postId, array( 'obrazek'), 'rodzaj' );      Why first 2 functions doesn't work? I made mistake at the begining.

title: Exclude posts from homepage having a specified tag

text:
I am pretty new in WordPress development and I am trying to implement this custom theme that handle the so called **featured posts** As you can see in the posts area of the homepage I have the _Articoli in evidenza_ sub area that contains my _featured posts_ and under it the _Ultimi Articoli_ subarea that contains the latest posts. To implment this I use the posts tag and in the futured posts area I show the posts having the `tag=featured` condition. So this is my code:

Articoli in evidenza
               <?php query_posts('tag=featured');?>     <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

     Scritto da <?php the_author_link(); ?>  //   <?php the_category(', ') ?>   //   <?php comments_popup_link('Nessun Commento', '1 Commento ', '% Commenti'); ?>

<?php the_excerpt()?>           <?php $featured_img = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'featured_img', $single = true); ?>           <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php echo $featured_img ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />

          <?php endwhile; ?>     <?php else : ?>     <?php endif; ?>
Ultimi Articoli
                       <?php         if (have_posts()) :             // Start the Loop.             while (have_posts()) : the_post();                      /*                  * Include the post format-specific template for the content. If you want to                  * use this in a child theme, then include a file called called content-___.php                  * (where ___ is the post format) and that will be used instead.                  */                 get_template_part('content', get_post_format());                  endwhile;         else :             // If no content, include the "No posts found" template.             get_template_part('content', 'none');              endif;         ?>
      As you can see first I show the posts having a tag `featured` by the use of `query-posts()` function:               <?php query_posts('tag=featured');?>      Now my problem is that, if a post have the `featured` tag, I don't want that it is shown in the latest post area (at this time it is shown). So I tried to use this code:
Ultimi Articoli NOT FEATURED
               <?php query_posts('tag != featured');?>          <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

     Scritto da <?php the_author_link(); ?>  //   <?php the_category(', ') ?>   //   <?php comments_popup_link('Nessun Commento', '1 Commento ', '% Commenti'); ?>

<?php the_excerpt()?>           <?php $featured_img = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'featured_img', $single = true); ?>           <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php echo $featured_img ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />

          <?php endwhile; ?>     <?php else : ?>     <?php endif; ?>      But this don't work and the featured posts still shown in the homepage. As you can see, I've tried to specify that, to be shown, a post can't have the `featured` tag:               <?php query_posts('tag != featured');?>      Why don't this work? What am I missing?

title: Change permalink structure for pagination only

text: I am using following functions to display pagination on archive pages of my site.               <?php previous_posts_link('< Previous', $loop->max_num_pages); ?>     <?php next_posts_link('More >', $loop->max_num_pages); ?>      And it is working very fine on my localhost. But not on my server, the issue is that we have some redirects written on my server's .htaccess and since my wordpress is subdomain I dont really want to touch my root .htaccess file. Default pagination links my pages to               domain.com/wordpress/posttype/page/2     domain.com/wordpress/posttype/page/3      and so on.. but the above links gets redirected to something like following               domain.com/wordpress/posttype/page/blah2     domain.com/wordpress/posttype/page/blah3      which eventually returns 404 page. (ofcourse its due to .htaccess redirects on my server) So All I want to do is change permalink structure for my pagination so that my pagination links look something like these :               domain.com/wordpress/posttype?page=2     domain.com/wordpress/posttype?page=3      Thank You.


title: Create more Meta Boxes as needed

text: I'd like users to be able to create and remove additional meta box fields as needed. For example, say a music podcast with a variable amount of songs played per episode. The user should be able to click a button that will add additional fields to enter each song as needed. Ideally this would be done without the use of a plugin, but coded into the functions file.


title: dynamically add a custom field or metabox to custom post type

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Create more Meta Boxes as needed I am creating a plugin that registers a Custom Post Type. Let's call it "Cars". I am looking to be able to add custom fields(or metaboxes) when I am editing a car, just like what you can do now with a custom field in a post or a CPT but I want to be able to control the HTML/CSS for it(for example I would like it to have 3 input fields). So for example when you are editing a car, there would be a "add new field" button and when you press it a new custom field/metabox(with predefined structure and styling by me) would be added. Let me know if I am not clear. Thank you!

text: I need to do a small modification on WP site done by someone else. And my WP experience is close to zero. But I'm comfortable with PHP. Wordpress Version: 3.8 Plugins: ONLY **Advanced Custom Fields 4.3.4 [ACF]** http://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/ There's only one group **Products** made with ACF with fields like **title, description, price, store**. Site owner add Products with details & which stores they are available at. currently the products are displayed correctly based on the url               http://mysite.site/store1      will take to a list of product categories. When user clicks any of the category it will show the filtered products list with the ACF field **store** **The Problem** All categories are displayed regardless of whether it contain products for the specific stores ie., **category 2** has only one product **product 10** and it is only available in **store1**. But store2 & store3 shows **category 2** even though it doesn't have any valid product. Currently the following code is used to display categories.               $args = array(         'type'                     => 'post',         'child_of'                 => 0,         'parent'                   => '0',         'orderby'                  => 'name',         'order'                    => 'ASC',         'hide_empty'               => 1,         'hierarchical'             => 1,         'taxonomy'                 => 'category',     );     $top_categories = get_categories($args);      I want $top_categories to return only those categories with products for current store Thank you

title: comments are coming on improper posts

text: If someone comments on any post on my site, that comment gets displayed under another post. Moreover, if I login to my site. And click on logout link (under comment section) it redirects me to another article after log out. One possible reason as I read on many places, may be showing related posts. I am using following code for this               <?php do_action('erp-show-related-posts', array('title'=>'Most Related Post', 'num_to_display'=>10, 'no_rp_text'=>'No relevant article found.')); ?>      Which is basically given by a wordpress plugin efficient related post.


title: What is a good way to present templated content in WordPress?

text: I'd like to be able to add a template for a page that will present pages with similar data in the same style. For example, I want to be able to create a "Person Profile" template so that all personal profile pages have the same look and feel. Currently, the way I might do that is copy and paste a set of `<div>` tags into different pages and update my style.css file to handle the custom classes in the `<div>` tags. While this convention would work, it requires anyone who adds content to be able to understand how to insert their images and text correctly between the `<div>` tags. What I would really like is the ability to have someone fill out a simple "form" and then take that content and display it in a templated way on the site. For example, there's might be a form like this:               1. Image: _______________________________ [Browse]     2. Person's Name : ______________________     3. About this Person: ___________________     [Save] [Cancel]      I'm thinking that this problem has been solved by others using WordPress, but I don't know where to look to solve this problem in a way that can be easily maintained.

title: Restrict a Post Types Post Status

text: I have a custom post type and a completely custom user interface to access it, and would like these posts to have a publish status. I know how to make them skip trash and be deleted immediately, but this still leaves me with draft posts and private posts. Is there a way to prevent posts getting flagged as drafts or private? I can hide the controls in CSS but I want to do this in code to make sure it isn't possible, is there a handy filter I can use?

title: wp_kses vs wp_strip_all_tags

text: Apart from providing a granular control for allowed HTML tags does `wp_kses` provide any additional benefits over `wp_strip_all_tags`? Essentially, if I were to use `wp_kses` and set it to `not` allow any HTML or protocols, would it carry any benefit over just using `wp_strip_all_tags`?


title: How to install wordpress theme's plug-ins?

text: I need you're help, as I'm sort of a noob at installing extras in themes. I installed the Metro Magazine theme on my wordpress site, but the metro magazine theme has some plug-ins to increase functionality that I can't install in my theme. When I upload each plug-in in zip or rar format, I get this error: **Failed to install plug-ins** When I try to install this theme completely using the Appearance > Theme as theme installation, with all it's plug-ins in zip or rar format, I can't install this theme so first I installed theme with out the extra plug-ins and it installed with out any Error. Can someone help me find a way to install this theme completely, using it's own plug-ins as a theme installation or how can I install this theme's plug-ins, after I install the theme without the plugins. : Raha


title: Why is jquery-ui-core enqueueing in my footer instead of the header?

text: This is what I'm using to make sure that I have jquery-ui-core available:               if (!is_admin()) add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'zg_load_scripts');     function zg_load_scripts(){         wp_enqueue_script("jquery-ui-core");     }       I also tried `wp_enqueue_script("jquery-ui-core", null, null, false, false);` in a vain attempt to force it into the header. No dice. What's going on here?


title: How to set a cookie for logged in users to md5($user->ID . "my_secret")?

text: For all logged in visitors of my WordPress website I would like to set 2 cookies based on their user ID - so that I can use their user IDs in WordPress-unrelated PHP scripts at the same domain. In one cookie I would like to store the user ID. In the other cookie I'd like to store a md5 hash of the user ID and a secret word - so that I can verify in my PHP scripts, that the first cookie hasn't been faked. Here is my code:                   $year = time() + 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 * 12;         $auth = md5(join('_', array($user->ID, 'my_secret')));              setcookie('visitor_id', $user->ID, $year, '/', '.example.com');         setcookie('visitor_auth', $auth, $year, '/', '.example.com');      Please advise me, where to put this code in my plugin? I have looked at the wp_set_auth_cookie, but I don't see how it could be used for my purpose. It seems to be a function to set some WordPress internal cookies, but not my custom cookies. Or should I mayber put the above code into `init` hook? How can I find the user ID in there?


title: Is there a way to list all the JavaScript scripts that are actually loaded by WordPress? Do we care?

text: This page on the Codex gives us a list of all the default scripts that ship with WP. But how do we know which ones are actually being used so we don't have to manually enqueue them? Or do we care, and just enqueue the ones we need, and `wp_enqueue_script()` will just ignore the enqueue request if that script is already loaded? But what about versions? If I'm going to be specifying versions with `wp_enqueue_script` and the version that ships with WP is less than that, will the `wp_enqueue_script` call just be ignored, and I find myself without the script I'm looking for?


title: How to change post to page

text: If I have to change a number of posts to pages, does this require anything more complex that setting the post-type to page on the table wp_posts? Do any other settings need to be changed. Is it better to use a plugin like Convert Post Types or Vice Versa instead? I have a number of posts that I like being able to categorize on a site, but I may need to change to pages in the future. Thanks,
