Answer remade. The original was a wild idea… The solution is the same as the one posted by Rarst in the question linked How to *remove* a parent theme page template from a child theme? Difference being the admin_head hook. And a check for only running in edit-page and not in edit-post or edit-custom_post_type, as … Read more
You could create a custom post type post_templates. It should not be publicly queryable, and the admin only should be able to create or edit items. In your post editor you could then add a TinyMCE button/dropdown to let the editor select a template. Here is a very basic example plugin illustrating how to work … Read more
There’s filters for that. Example: add_filter( ‘template_filter’, ‘wpse_102706_filter_callback’, 10, 2 ); function wpse_102706_filter_callback( $defaults, $case ) { $args = wp_parse_args( array( ‘some_key’ => ‘some_modified_value’ ), $defaults ); return $args } Then in your template just add in the defaults: apply_filters( ‘template_filter’, array( ‘some_key’ => ‘default_val’ ), ‘single’ ); More info in Codex about the Plugins … Read more
You could use add_shortcode if you want to use it within the editor. function footag_func() { return “Test”; } add_shortcode( ‘footag’, ‘footag_func’ ); And then use [footag] in your editor. Or Use code like this in functions.php and add a conditional tag add_action( ‘loop_start’, ‘your_function’ ); function your_function() { if ( is_singular(‘post’) ) { echo … Read more
You haven’t created a query to return your post index results. Let me back up… In WordPress something called the “Main” query runs very early in the page load, and well before your template files load. That query retrieves the posts to display and also (more or less) determines which template file to use to … Read more
Your paths should be: /wp-content/themes/gt3-wp-pure/page-templates/ … instead of: public_html/wp-content/themes/gt3-wp-pure/page-templates/
The template_redirect hook might be what you are looking for. function template_redir_wpse_97289($content) { // code or file include, for example } add_filter(‘template_redirect’,’template_redir_wpse_97289′,1); That will fire just before the page template is loaded so you could use it to load your own templates.
For anyone looking for this same solution I figured it out (apart from adding a different class to parents and children, unfortunately this puts the parent in the same nest as its children but with css and query ill be able to differentiate these. Here is the code; <?php global $authordata, $post; $authors_posts = get_posts( … Read more
You’re looking for custom fields. Widgets are, generally, meant to be used for far more static content. Pages have custom fields enabled by default. You might not see them in the editor because I think they’re also hidden by default. Click ‘Screen Options’ to make sure they’re turned on. When you create the custom field, … Read more
<?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘put your custom PostType name here’, ‘posts_per_page’ => ‘-1’ ); $query = new WP_Query( $args ); if ( $query->have_posts() ) { while ( $query->have_posts() ) { $query->the_post(); // Contents of the queried post results go here. } } // Restore original post data. wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
