Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I did some more research, and found this – https://wordpress.org/plugins/attachments/ It’s a great plugin that lets you attach images to the post without inserting them in the post and the images can be easily sorted with ajax, it’s also quite modifiable and just what I needed, and works on custom … Read more
I thought I would provide you with another approach. It is also a bit hackish, but it is general purpose and allows you to simply register the filename and label that you want to use, like so: if ( class_exists( ‘WPSE_196995_Page_Templates’ ) ) { WPSE_196995_Page_Templates::register_page_template( ‘My Page Template’, ‘my-page-template.php’ ); } You could add the … Read more
WordPress 4.7 introduces a new filter that allows us to easily modify the template hierarchy: /** * Filters the list of template filenames that are searched for when retrieving * a template to use. * * The last element in the array should always be the fallback * template for this query type. * * … Read more

You don’t ever directly use (as in, select as a Page template) either front-page.php or home.php. WordPress uses these template files automatically, according to the Template Hierarchy rules. The front-page.php template file is used to display Site Front Page, whether you have set the site front page to display a static Page or the Blog … Read more
Here is something i cooked up which was taken mainly from the plugin Overwrite Uploads but without the extra stuff add_filter(‘wp_handle_upload_overrides’,’noneUniqueFilename’); function noneUniqueFilename($overrides){ $overrides[‘test_form’] = false; $overrides[‘unique_filename_callback’] = ‘nonUniqueFilenameCallback’; return $overrides; } function nonUniqueFilenameCallback($directory, $name, $extension){ $filename = $name . strtolower($extension); //remove old attachment removeOldAttach($filename); return $filename; } function removeOldAttach($filename){ $arguments = array( ‘numberposts’ => … Read more
A child theme may have declared these functions already with a slightly different inner logic. The functions.php from the child theme is loaded before the file from the parent theme. Without this check you would get the Cannot redeclare … error. Plugins can create functions too, so this problem is not restricted to the themes … Read more
To provide a default template that can be overwritten by a theme hook into template_include like the linked questions suggest. You get the template WordPress wants to use as a parameter. If that is not the file you want – replace it with your plugin’s file: add_filter( ‘template_include’, ‘wpse_57232_render_cpt’, 100 ); /** * Provide fall … Read more
The id parameter in register_sidebar is not directly related to the html output. It is used to identify each sidebar when the $widget_object is built. The class should be added to the before_widget markup. http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.4.1/wp-includes/widgets.php#L1128 is where the class gets parsed.
Don’t use query_posts in the template for simple modifications of the main query. Use the pre_get_posts action instead to modify the query before it runs: function wpa_date_posts_per_page( $query ) { if ( !is_admin() && $query->is_date() && $query->is_main_query() ) { $query->set( ‘posts_per_page’, 5 ); } } add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpa_date_posts_per_page’ );
