You can place the page templates wherever you want (also in a separate folder) as long as the files are within the current or parent theme’s directory. UPDATE: Follow this link to get a more detailed information about the Template File Folders: http://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates#File_Folders Take also a closer look at the Page Templates and the default … Read more
Alias ‘wp-content’ directory to something shorter (framework?)
According to me, Copy the “images” folder to your root directory. That will help you. And for future upload, place this code to your wp-config.php define( ‘UPLOADS’, ”.’images’ );
This is kind of a hacky way to do this; but unfortunately, there is not a WP function that will do both (theme and/or plugin). It’s only an either/or proposition. On the surface, you’d think it wouldn’t be difficult. You could just get the path and compare it with the site URL or something like … Read more
wp_upload_dir() is perfect. It is the only place where you can expect write permissions. Store the attachment ID, not a path. Then you get the image with: wp_get_attachment_url( $attach_id ) Sometimes a user may have deleted the image per media library. To avoid problems with missing files check the return value from wp_get_attachment_url() first. Excerpt … Read more
The idea is just to programmatically create a path/url in a plugin for a WordPress site (like, “[mysite]/mypath”), and then load an arbitrary html or php file. In case anyone else is looking for something similar, this works for me (in my main plugin function file): register_activation_hook(__FILE__, ‘myplugin_activate’); function myplugin_activate () { create_custom_page(‘mytestpath’); } function … Read more
Turns out the problem was with WP_CONTENT_URL, defined inside wp-config.php: define( ‘WP_CONTENT_URL’, ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . ‘/lab/WordPress-Skeleton/content’ ); It seems that $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] is returning an incomplete path (only localhost without the folder). Since I’m using version control and using a local-config.php to define some local dev variables (like database credentials), I also placed this on … Read more
I think you are looking for plugin_dir_url: $url = plugin_dir_url(__FILE__); $imageurl = $url.’images/someimage.png’; EDIT: Sorry I misread the question… that is only an answer to the linked question. You could check the parent directory recursively until you find the right one: function base_plugin_dir($dirpath) { if (substr(dirname($dir),-7) == ‘plugins’) {return $dirpath;} else {$dirpath = base_plugin_dir($dirpath);} return … Read more
If you just need that class included, and your script is located in the plugin directory, like /wp-content/plugins/pluginName/script.php, then you can do: require realpath(‘../../../wp-includes/class-phpass.php’);
The function plugin_dir_path has an misleading name, it doesn’t include a file from plugin directory, it just include a file from the same directory of the file passed as argument. When you call include( plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . ‘test-plugin/needed_file.php’); from a file in theme directory, you are just trying to include a file from theme … Read more
