You can try the following: function my_admin_notice() { ?> <div class=”updated”> <p><?php _e( ‘some message’, ‘my-text-domain’ ); ?></p> </div> <?php } add_action( ‘load-index.php’, function(){ add_action( ‘admin_notices’, ‘my_admin_notice’ ); } ); where we use the load-index.php hook to target the dashboard page.
You are using get_option() wrong, first variant, so take another look at the get_option() documentation. Basically you can’t directly access an array element with the function, it just doesn’t support it. The second variant should be possible, but you need at least PHP 5.4 – if I’m not totally mistaken; I don’t know anything about … Read more
I was able to get this working after a bit of fiddling. Give the #map-canvas element a height (you can do this in CSS): <div id=”map-canvas” style=”height:500px”></div> Add the callback argument to the google-maps script URL and add the defer and async attributes to the google-maps script tag. Also make custom-scripts a dependency for google-maps: … Read more
Front page template logic is horrendous legacy mess. While back I wrote a very thorough front page cheatsheet, I still can’t completely remember how it works. You are right to notice that theme in your case doesn’t behave in same way as other themes typically do. If you run down specific template being used (plugin … Read more
Do you mean meta like in custom fields or information from post in general? Basically as long as you have post id you can get anything you want, not tied to the Loop. For custom fields there is get_post_meta(). For general information (like title or content) there is number of functions (many template tags can … Read more
There is no native mechanism for WP to check for updates from non-official resources. Some plugins/theme have such functionality of their own for themselves. If you want to implement such checks for arbitrary plugins/themes (coded without such in mind) it is not impossible, but will take loads of custom code and handling different possible sources … Read more
Okay, first, let’s set things up properly, with a callback hooked into an appropriate action hook: <?php function wpse55227_enqueue_scripts() { // Enqueue code goes here } add_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘wpse55227_enqueue_scripts’ ); ?> We’ll put all of our code in to this callback. The next step is to add our if ( ! is_admin() ) conditional wrapper: … Read more
Is it not possible to add linebreaks in WordPress theme’s description? No. Sorry, to say – the question is valid, but I can’t come up with a longer answer. Wouldn’t make sense to explain the internals on this topic 🙂
Instead of making it category specific you could use post formats and use different content-templates. In single.php you can write <?php get_template_part( ‘content’, get_post_format() ); ?> Then create different post formats add_theme_support( ‘post-formats’, array( ‘withpictures’, ‘withcomments’ ) ); Then create different post templates content-withpictures.php, content-withcomments.php When creating content the chosen post format will determine the … Read more
I had the same problem – how can I display all the images from a post containing a gallery where some of the images are not attached to the post, or are attached to different posts? The new media interface in WP3.5 allows you to add any of the images in the media library to … Read more
