If you just place it in functions.php, not in a function in functions.php, it will be called too early. WordPress includes functions.php before it parses the URL and determines whether you are actually on the homepage or not. Since WordPress 3.1 there is an extra warning (only visibile if you enable WP_DEBUG) if you call … Read more
First of all, provide a well-formed default HTML form. Use <label>, <fieldset> and <legend> where appropriate. This markup provides a good structure for CSS styling. Adding in some CSS classes may help too. Provide a filter that allows developers to tweak the default form. To go even further, you can allow developers to completely rewrite … Read more
Not sure how and where you can create a custom button, but you can add such a link per filter: Add a filter function to ‘wp_nav_menu_objects’ and insert the link where you need it. Here is a basic example: add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_objects’, ‘wpse_46547_add_log_out_link’, 10, 2 ); function wpse_46547_add_log_out_link( $sorted_menu_items, $args ) { $link = array ( … Read more
The recommended way is to call your function inside the .js file you are enqueuing. Is there any reason you can’t do that?

The identifier must be 45 or less characters long, but the data attached to that identifier can be longer. … Read more
That twentyeleven_setup function, and others like it, are pluggable – meaning that they can be overridden by a child theme. The child theme’s version of a function with that same name will be parsed first, so the parent theme’s version will not be run at all. In TwentyTwelve some functions are not pluggable, but instead … Read more

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
