wp_editor on front end – JavaScripts not included

by

note that wp_editor will echo to output, not put it in a variable. If you want to put it in a variable, just do ob_start(); wp_editor($content, ‘textarea_rich’, $args); $html = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); and you have what you need in $html. You can also see https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/indypress/tags/1.0/indypress/form_inputs/tinymce.php for a working implementation. Another issue I noted is some … Read more

by

First things first, modifying core files is extremely frowned upon you will have to make these changes with every upgrade and they can lead to security and other problems. I’m pretty sure there is a plugin that will allow this. I did a simple search and here are a few to try: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/preserved-html-editor-markup/ http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ultimate-tinymce/

Disable the visibility options in WP

by

Quick hack to get the job done, in case anyone else needs to do this: add_action(‘add_meta_boxes’, function() { add_action(‘admin_head’, function() { echo <<<EOS <style type=”text/css”> #visibility { display: none; } </style> EOS; }); }); add_action(‘restrict_manage_posts’, function() { echo <<<EOS <script type=”text/javascript”> jQuery(document).ready(function($) { $(“input[name=”keep_private”]”).parents(“div.inline-edit-group:first”).hide(); }); </script> EOS; }); (Still curious to know if there’s a … Read more

How to group meta boxes on the post edit page

by

Thanks for the hint Bainternet, indeed this is very easy to implement with jQuery. Example (the four meta boxes are closed for clarity) : Here’s what I did : var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); $j(document).ready(function() { $j(“#side-sortables”).append(‘<div id=”container_div” class=”postbox meta-box-sortables ui-sortable”><div class=”handlediv” title=”Click to toggle.”><br></div><h3 class=”hndle”><span>Container Meta Box</span></h3><div id=”container_inside” class=”inside”></div></div>’); $j(“#my_metabox_div”).appendTo(“#container_inside”); $j(“#my_other_metabox_div”).appendTo(“#container_inside”); etc… }); I added … Read more

Add custom fields within meta box class “on the fly”

by

Agreed, I’ve seen it too, but I don’t think there’s any readily available API or method. For me, I use a lick of jQuery; <input type=”text” class=”list-item” name=”list_items[]” /> <input type=”button” class=”button-secondary” id=”add-list” /> <script type=”text/javascript”> ( function( $ ) { $( ‘#add-list’ ).click( function() { var $item = $( ‘.list-item:last’ ), $new = $item.clone(); … Read more

Post/Page Publish/Update button not clickable once I make an edit

by

It appears to be a bug, but one that can be hacked around each time it happens with about 2 seconds of work. This wordpress forum thread: If you’re using Chrome, right-click on the greyed-out “Update” button and select “Inspect Element”. You will see something to the likes of: <input name=”save” type=”submit” class=”button button-primary button-large … Read more
