Always use the built-in versions. Don’t waste time with old WordPress installations – other plugins will break there too. See wp-includes/script-loader.php for the list of available files. Quite a lot. 🙂 And avoid remote resources. Some (Google) fail to send the scripts gzip compressed to all supporting browsers, others may not be reliable enough. There … Read more
There’s a few plugins to fix this, but basically it your database still references the images to be “oldsite.com/wp-content/uploads/” and you need it to be “newsite.com/wp-content/uploads” So you have to change all old references. You could use SQL: UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, ‘http://www.oldsite.com’, ‘http://www.newsite.com’) WHERE option_name = ‘home’ OR option_name = ‘siteurl’; UPDATE … Read more
If you’re willing to create a child theme and put your PHP files in there, this approach is relatively clean. For each file, create a rewrite rule where you specify the path you want to use and the filename that should load. In the example below, /custom-path/ loads custom-file.php from the root of your child … Read more
The best way would be to use wp_nav_menu with a custom walker. Prerequisites: Registered theme location Menu saved to that theme location Useage Wherever you want the breadcrumbs (for theme location ‘primary’): <?php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => ‘none’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘walker’=> new SH_BreadCrumbWalker, ‘items_wrap’ => ‘<div id=”breadcrumb-%1$s” class=”%2$s”>%3$s</div>’ ) ); ?> The custom walker … Read more
You can change the Plugins directory using constants defined in wp-config.php: Set WP_CONTENT_DIR to the full local path of this directory (no trailing slash), e.g. define( ‘WP_CONTENT_DIR’, $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’] . ‘/blog/wp-content’ ); Set WP_CONTENT_URL to the full URI of this directory (no trailing slash), e.g. define( ‘WP_CONTENT_URL’, ‘http://example/blog/wp-content’); Set WP_PLUGIN_DIR to the full local path of … Read more
I don’t have time to explain this in detail (I shall upon return) but in the meantime this should work for you, Answer updated with explanation as promised. WP Rewrite rules are like voodoo, I’m sure there’s more than one way to go about this, but here’s mine. Problem: Just to clarify your question for … Read more
Symbolic links are … risky in WordPress. It is easier to use a separate domain for plugins per wp-config.php: define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_DIR’, ‘/local/path/to/plugin/directory’ ); define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_URL’, ‘http://plugins.dev’); See Strategy On Building Plugin Using Eclipse as an example for IDE configuration with such a setup.
If this is a single WordPress install, there are a couple database entries with your old domain. Specifically, siteurl and home within wp_options. That said, if the dev URL is temporary, you can also set the following two constants in wp-config.php: define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[‘SERVER_NAME’]); define(‘WP_SITEURL’, WP_HOME . “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); Provided that WordPress is installed in … Read more
What you’re looking for is wp_localize_script function. You use it like this when enqueing script wp_register_script( ‘my-script’, ‘myscript_url’ ); wp_enqueue_script( ‘my-script’ ); $translation_array = array( ‘templateUrl’ => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() ); //after wp_enqueue_script wp_localize_script( ‘my-script’, ‘object_name’, $translation_array ); In your style.js, there is going to be: var templateUrl = object_name.templateUrl; …
They should do the same thing, but under certain conditions, may not. First of all note: that the codex entry description is misleading that wp-admin/includes/file.php must be included in context else calling get_home_path() will lead to calling an undefined function. Regarding the codex entry, Description Get the absolute filesystem path to the root of the … Read more
