Following the previous answers, in most cases I would stick to the WordPress default styles and patterns — for design and also markup, functions, APIs and cod, not only the CSS –, specially if it’s a plugin to the general public and to be hosted in the official repository. As Milan pointed out “There are … Read more
try these changes: 1) To use add_action() when your plugin or theme is built using classes instead of passing just the function name, you need to pass an array with a reference to the class ($this) and the callable function (‘custom_post_type’) function __construct() { add_action(‘init’, array( $this, ‘custom_post_type’ ) ); } 2) The original ‘activate’ … Read more
The most performant way to do this is probably by hooking into map_meta_cap to conditionally disallow the install_plugins capability. There are no database calls involved with that. Here’s an (untested) example: add_filter( ‘map_meta_cap’, ‘wpse291964_limit_plugins’, 10, 2 ); function wpse291964_limit_plugins( $caps, $cap ) { if ( ‘install_plugins’ === $cap ) { $plugins = get_plugins(); // Only … Read more
By default, all files added by the Apache itself will be owned by the server’s user, in your case www-data. But since your users use FTP to deploy, those files are owned by them, and it makes the Apache scream for your attention. Changing the ownership of wp-content folder to www-data isn’t insecure at all, … Read more
First you need to tell WordPress to show this custom field in the API response: register_term_meta(‘category’, ‘_category_color’, [‘show_in_rest’ => true]); Then you can filter the category term API endpoint like so: add_filter( ‘rest_prepare_category’,function($response, $item, $request){ $color = get_term_meta( $item->term_id, ‘_category_color’, true ); $response->data[‘color’] = $color ?: ”; return $response; }, 10, 3);
The issue in your code is simple: if you want to send a JSON response, then make sure it’s a valid JSON response, i.e. send the correct Content-Type header and a proper JSON-encoded body. With jQuery.ajax(), though, you can omit the header, but you’d need to set the dataType to json. function my_ajax_callback1() { // … Read more
It is a core WP function, but only after WordPress version 5.5.0. If you’re using an older version of WordPress, it won’t exist yet. Do this: add_action(‘admin_init’, function() { if ( ! function_exists( ‘wp_get_environment_type’ ) ) { return; } $environment = wp_get_environment_type(); //… Or, better still, make sure your WordPress installation is up to date.
Now I have familiarized myself with the above principles via the documentation and I think I have understood them now I don’t know which documentation you read, but you should check the Plugin Security section in the plugin developer’s handbook. And there are three main issues I noticed in your code: Before attempting to use … Read more
Yes, there’s activate_plugin() defined in wp-admin/includes/plugin.php (which isn’t normally loaded from non-admin code, and note that obviously a PHP plugin file can’t activate itself) wp-cli wp plugin activate if you meant activate from the command line without using the admin site (and at a pinch you could edit the active_plugins value in wp_options in the … Read more
If you want this logo to show up across your network sites regardless of the theme I’d advise you to create a new PHP file inside wp-content/mu-plugins (create the directory if it doesn’t exist) and drop that code inside the new file. You can name your file whatever you like – for example my-network-tweaks.php. That … Read more
