get_option / wp_localize_script Not Working in OOP Plug In

The second parameter for register_setting() is the database option name which you would use with get_option() just as you’ve done successfully with the title_char_count_settings option: register_setting( ‘pluginPage’, ‘title_char_count_settings’ ) and get_option( ‘title_char_count_settings’ );. So I’m guessing that you either: Made a typo in the register_setting() call in your ebay_keyword_suggest_settings_init() function: // You used this: register_setting( … Read more

Decimal values via get_option() with custom local (decimal point = comma)

get_option() always returns a string. That has nothing to do with whether setlocale() has been used. Options are all stored in the option_value column of wp_options, which is a text column. Your float is likely being formatted for your locale when it tries to insert a float into the text column. Your problem is that … Read more

Upload file on pre_update_option_{option_name}

I’m quite sure the problem is not with the WordPress hook you’re using. Instead, the following: Cannot find $_FILES, in $_POST, there’s the filename .. is most likely because your form tag (<form>) does not have the required enctype attribute which must be set to multipart/form-data to make file upload input works in that the … Read more

Settings API: Setting default option via ‘get_option’ fails

I guess the problem is when you do have a value for test_hs_options but that value does not have a ‘duration_months’ ? The default array you’re supplying will only be used when there is no test_hs_options in the database: this code won’t add a duration_months to a non-empty array that does not have one. Instead … Read more

Checking if one of the post tags has options

If you have a term, you can retrieve its meta via get_term_meta, this function works the same way as get_post_meta only it takes a term ID not a post ID E.g. if ( get_term_meta( $term_id, ‘key’, true ) === ‘value’ ) { // it has the value } Once you know this, it’s just basic … Read more

How to Change CSS Colors from Custom Plugin Settings Page

Nevermind, the last option was actually working, but in my own CSS code I found that I was overriding it. I cleaned up my CSS and it’s working with the function I posted above. I also found an alternative method using wp_add_inline_style() which got me to look at my CSS code in more depth. Example … Read more

Updating just one option with update_option

Your method is correct, but the problem is that the value inside the option in your example, i.e.: get_option( ‘second_option’ ); is not serialized correctly ( it was either edited directly–and incorrectly–through the database or inserted with something other than update_option() ). If you var_dump( get_option( ‘second_option’ ) );, you’ll see that it’s not an … Read more

Which Hook can I use when creating unique post but not update/save/delete

The save_post hook has a third parameter named $update, so you can use it to check if the post is being created and not updated. function define_asset( $post_id, $post, $update ) { if ( $update ) { return; } // else, run your code… } add_action( ‘save_post’, ‘define_asset’, 20, 3 );

Add description to custom plugin setting

I’ve not seen this type of title settings layout in the admin pages, so it seems you’re parting away from it. Otherwise note that the title field of add_settings_field() is unescaped, so in theory one could add some HTML code for new title layout. Usually the description is added to the input field.

Save default options as an array of options and display in REST API

I solved the issue thanks to this answer: Serialized settings in rest api. I was able to store all the options as a json object: /** * Create plugin options schema as an object and prepare it for the rest api. * WP >=5.3 */ function my_register_settings() { $general_options = [ ‘show_in_rest’ => [ ‘schema’ … Read more
