Changes made to pages and posts are not saved when you Preview, they are only applied and made public when you Publish or Update. As mentioned above, caching plugins may prevent the changes from being displayed immediately even if you’re saved your edits.
Use the pre_get_posts action to alter the main query with meta_query arguments to only select posts with active current_status. This example would work for your main posts page. See Conditional Tags for how to determine when other types of queries are run. function wpa_current_status( $query ) { if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) { $meta_query … Read more
Use the action from update_post_meta(): do_action( “updated_{$meta_type}_meta”, // example: updated_post_meta $meta_id, $object_id, // post ID $meta_key, // ‘view’ $_meta_value // view count ); Something like this should work (not tested): add_action( ‘update_post_meta’, ‘badge_check’, 10, 4 ); function badge_check( $meta_id, $post_id, $key, $value ) { if ( ‘views’ !== $key or 1000 > $value ) return; … Read more
You could compare post_date to post_modified and only echo your content if they do not match. // inside a Loop if ($post->post_date != $post->post_modified) { ?> <span style=”font-size:85%”>Last update <u><time datetime=”<?php the_modified_time(‘d-m-y’); ?>”> <?php the_modified_time(‘l j F, Y’); ?></time></u></span><?php } If you want “significant” updates, though, you will need to determine what counts as significant … Read more
I’ve installed your plugin and it doesn’t work. Feeds counter are updated correctly, but no feed are shown (and so no ‘Press this’ buttons). After that when I install it I see several notices: are you testing your plugin with wp debugging active? The best way, for me, is redirect users to the standard wordpress … Read more
You have to POST the data somehow, or send it via GET (not good if you have a lot of data, and not really the intended purpose of GET anyway). It is really hard to tell exactly what your problem is though. The options that come to my mind are: Use the AJAX API (even … Read more
A simple ways to do it, publish it with a past date. If you need to post content that should not behave like normal posts then you should consider posting it as a page.
Unfortunately there are no filters or actions for modifying the post status select in quick edit (WP_Posts_List_Table::inline_edit()) – you’d need to resort to JavaScript: (function($){ $( “select[name=_status]” ).each( function () { var value = $( this ).val(); if ( value === “pending” ) $( “option[value=pending]”, this ).after( “<option value=”status-1″>Status 1</option>” ); else if ( value … Read more
I am not sure if that is built in, but you can try adding something like this to your functions.php function set_publisher( $new_status, $old_status, $post ) { $publisher_id = get_current_user_id(); if ( $new_status == ‘publish’ && $publisher_id > 0) { update_post_meta($post->ID, ‘post_publisher’, $publisher_id); } } add_action( ‘transition_post_status’, ‘set_publisher’, 10, 3 ); And then when you … Read more
There is no built in “user code” mechanism is WordPress. Your options for running your code are the theme’s functions.php file, a plugin, or a mu-plugin. You are aware of the first two options, the first of which you reasonably want to avoid. Writing a simple plugin is pretty trivial so I would not be … Read more
