I found that it required removing 4 filters/actions to undo WPML’s home_url modification. Since I didn’t know what else this might break, I ended up changing my site’s logo to use site_url() which in my case was the same, but not changed by WPML. function disable_things(){ remove_filter( ‘page_link’, array( $this, ‘permalink_filter’ ), 1, 2 ); … Read more
Finally solved the issue. Index.html file in /public_html/ directory was conflicting with index.php file. This awesome article solved the issue. askwpgirl.com/moving-wordpress-from-subdirectory-to-root-faq/
I think your problem here is the esc_url() function which is used to sanitize a lot of the URLs used in wp-core. If you have a look at the function definition in formatting.php you’ll see that the regex in line 2627 is filtering out [ and ]. But fortunately you can also see that in … Read more
There isn’t much difference but they are not the same. get_home_url get_home_url() takes null or a blog id as the first parameter. As per documentation here. get_home_url( int $blog_id = null, string $path=””, string|null $scheme = null ) If you are dealing with multiple homes (as in, say a multi-site set up) this might be … Read more
I would set another page as the home page, add a custom template for the home page and put this in it: <?php wp_redirect( get_permalink( $id ), 301 ); exit; ?>
bloginfo echos its result, this is why your attempt to “get the value” and manipulate it results in nothing, as no value is actually being returned. If you want to get the relevant value you should use get_bloginfo instead
The difference in your case is in filters being applied to output of these functions. While bloginfo applies one of these filters: if ( ‘display’ == $filter ) { if ( $url ) $output = apply_filters(‘bloginfo_url’, $output, $show); else $output = apply_filters(‘bloginfo’, $output, $show); } Function home_url applies this filter: return apply_filters( ‘home_url’, $url, $path, … Read more
You don’t want a post to be the front page, you want a custom post type entry to be the front page. Now that we have the terminology right, yes it’s possible. A client once asked me to do the exact same thing. They had a custom post type they needed displayed on the front … Read more
You can get the value of front in the global $wp_rewrite: global $wp_rewrite; echo $wp_rewrite->front; // or echo home_url( $wp_rewrite->front ); Though that is probably of limited use, as the front base isn’t necessarily an existing page, and may 404 in many cases. If you’re using that value to prepend to other URLs, you’re likely … Read more
There are plugins to set the site to SSL. Why not use one of them? And you do have an SSL certificate installed and active?
