Now I’m developing themes for wordpress and I noticed how bad it is in front of anchor when we’re talking about themes development. I could bring you plenty of examples to prove what I’m saying. Let’s start with the “comment form” function: why the developer who’s creating a theme must be forced to use the … Read more
I have found that the following works for connecting the database via the theme’s functions.php file. I placed this code snippet at the end of the existing code in the file. Even though the fatal error threw several line errors when trying to access the site, it only came down to wpdb having an extra … Read more
The WP global variable $pagename should be available for you, I have just tried with the same setup you specified. $pagename is defined in the file wp-includes/theme.php, inside the function get_page_template(), which is of course called before your page theme files are parsed, so it is available at any point inside your templates for pages. … Read more
you can use this function i think it works properly. add_filter( ‘wp_authenticate_user’, ‘verify_recaptcha_on_login’, 10, 3 ); function verify_recaptcha_on_login($user, $password) { $secretkey = “your secret key”; if (isset($_POST[‘g-recaptcha-response’])) { $response = wp_remote_get( ‘https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret=”.$secretkey.”&response=” . $_POST[“g-recaptcha-response’] ); $response = json_decode($response[‘body’], true); if (true == $response[‘success’]) { return $user; } else { // FIXME: This one fires if … Read more

They are the default posts/pages/comments accessed by the backend not by the theme files. To get to this … Read more
I would recommend creating a plugin that holds all of your libraries. In the main plugin file, set a constant that defines the path to the plugin folder so you can easily include the files with your other plugins/themes.
Date/time limitation of posts where function must be executed
Great question, I asked it myself and here’s what I came up with. You can just use this in a custom plugin or in functions.php. // turn on Output Buffering (hence *ob*) ob_start(); // register a callback to run after WordPress has outputed everything add_action(‘shutdown’, function () { // get the output buffer and store … Read more
Yep, of course that’s possible. There are several ways of viewing the php source code of your theme, of your plugins and of WordPress itself. I assume that you are interested in the php code of your theme – that’s mostly what’s generating the public facing HTML that gets served to the site visitor’s browser. … Read more
From the Codex page for $wpdb: The function [$wpdb->query] returns an integer corresponding to the number of rows affected/selected. If there is a MySQL error, the function will return FALSE.
