I actually figured out a way to do this. First you use wget like this: wget –user username –ask-password -O path/to/output.zip https://bitbucket.org/path/to/file.zip the -O flag specifies output and output.zip is where you want it to download to. Then you can run: wp theme install path/to/output.zip –activate Happy days
There is a way, but it’s not recommended since there might be some other inline scripts attached to the enqueued scripts. You can hook to the wp_enqueue_scripts action and empty the global $wp_scripts as follows: add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘remove_all_scripts’, 1000 ); function remove_all_scripts() { global $wp_scripts; $wp_scripts->queue = array(); } You can then run a loop … Read more
You can use a prefix like ‘xyz-‘ (basically a namespace) for the handle if the script or stylesheet you use is unique to your theme / plugin. Owl Carousel is not, so just ‘owlcarousel’ is fine. You’d use a prefix if you didn’t want any chance another loaded plugin might be using the same name … Read more
Is there a proper way to easily bootstrap all the WordPress includes, without having to go all the way through the theme? That’s the wrong question. Shortcodes are far from the only way to run code from a theme or plugin. You’ve correctly identified them as inappropriate for the job though. What I think you … Read more
There is much safer way of removing jquery-migrate… Your code is almost correct, but first you remove jQuery and then add it again. If dependencies for jQuery will change, then your code will cause problems. But you don’t have to remove script to change its dependencies. You can do exactly that: function remove_jquery_migrate( $scripts ) … Read more
Your issue is that you are trying to use the normal jQuery shortcut ($) which doesn’t work by default as the WordPress version of jQuery is in compatibility mode. You need to wrap the code in your custom.js file in an anonymous function to map jQuery to $ as shown below: (function($) { //Your code … Read more
There’s an in_footer parameter that you can pass to wp_enqueue_scripts – does that work? I would hook to admin_enqueue_scripts, check the $page for location, and enqueue your script there, with ‘in_footer’ as true. Example: add_action( ‘admin_enqueue_scripts’, ‘enqueue_my_script’ ); function enqueue_my_script( $page ) { if ($page !== ‘edit.php’) return; wp_enqueue_script( ‘my-script’, ‘http://path/to/my/local/script’, null, null, true ); … Read more
For the record this entirely the wrong thing to do. Themes should avoid (read never!) de-register the WordPress registered jQuery scripts (plug-ins should absolutely never do this). If a theme is to de-register the jquery script (to replace it) then it should re-register it properly: wp_register_script( ‘jquery’, ‘http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js’); Here-in lies the problem. The above is … Read more
I posted a way to accomplish this here. Essentially, my suggestion is to create a sort of API for your WP installation to maintain orthogonality between your systems.
