This question is about the famous debate on using Dynamic methods over static methods in classes. According to my research the widely acknowledged idea is to limit the use of static methods as much as we can. If you need to store something it’d need to be a static member variable, which is problematic. Just … Read more
When calling parent::__construct() from WC_Widget_Product_Departments the constructor of WC_Widget_Product_Categories immediately overwrites the class properties (especially the widget_id), see here at GitHub. So you have to extend WC_Widget to create a new widget and then you can copy anything what you need in your widget from WC_Widget_Product_Categories to WC_Widget_Product_Departments.
Problem lies in this line: remove_action(‘woocommerce_before_my_account’, array( $this, ‘my_packages’)); This won’t remove action registered by parent class, because $this is a different object in this case, so you won’t remove any action at all. So how to remove such action? Since you can’t access the same $this value in your class, you’ll have to iterate … Read more
You need to send your notice message – or probably a key that refers to a specific standard notice message – over the URL to the next page. I’d advise encapsulating this in its own function. Something like… public function render_to_pdf() { // … whatever you need to do my_trigger_notice( 1 ); // 1 here … Read more
That’s not how register_activation_hook works. register_activation_hook is called only once, when the plugin is activated. CPT’s however need to be registered on every single request, not just when the plugin is activated. This is because WP doesn’t store a list of CPT’s in the database, it’s generated at runtime by PHP code. So instead, register … Read more
You can’t. Not how you’ve written it. You need to be able to access the instance of ChildAdminClass somehow, but it only exists within the MainAdminClass class and isn’t exposed in any way. In your code attempting to remove it you’ve referenced $child_admin as a global variable, but you didn’t create it as a global … Read more
You have the right idea with using get_object() just on wrong class. Since hooked method belongs to Theme_My_Login_Custom_Passwords instance it should be Theme_My_Login_Custom_Passwords::get_object().
I don’t see an option for it in register_taxonomy() It’s not in Codex, but is fully supported: add_action( ‘init’, function() { register_taxonomy( ‘foo’, ‘post’, array( ‘description’ => ‘Hi there!’ ) ); $foo = get_taxonomy( ‘foo’ ); echo $foo->description; // output “Hi there!” });
I am trying to use $wp_admin_bar to remove a couple of the default WordPress designs but I am not able to find where to add $wp_admin_bar that does not trigger an error. The wp_before_admin_bar_render hook doesn’t pass the admin bar object, but you can access it manually (from within a function or a class method) … Read more
Well it can’t and won’t work like you want it to. Let’s look at what exactly are you doing. Inside your constructor you have: add_action(‘init’, array( &$this, ‘init’ ) ); //this doesn’t work So you add init method of your object to WPs init hook. When WP runs it’s init action, then your init method … Read more
