I found this plugin that let me create custom options and set the value dynamically in my templates. Worked out fine http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-options-plus/
In your example.php file add this line at the top, this will enable all wordpress functions such as $wpdb, get_header(); etc. <?php require_once(‘LINK-TO-DIRECTORY/wp-blog-header.php’); ?> Recommended reading – Codex – Integrating WordPress with Your Website
This may be an HTML issue. For a multiple select, the name of needs to end in “[]”, to signify an array. So try changing: <select name=”<?php echo $themename_option_name.'[‘.$valueid.’]’; ?>” id=”<?php echo $themename_option_name.'[‘.$valueid.’]’; ?>” multiple=”multiple” style=”height:150px; min-width: 200px;”> to <select name=”<?php echo $themename_option_name.'[‘.$valueid.’]’; ?>[]” id=”<?php echo $themename_option_name.'[‘.$valueid.’]’; ?>” multiple=”multiple” style=”height:150px; min-width: 200px;”> So you should … Read more
Values set in the ‘std’ key of the array, ‘std’ => ‘your default value’ Are saved to the database on first initialization of the framework. Once you overwrite the default value and or remove the default value, even if left as a blank field, the default no longer applies unless you hit the “restore defaults” … Read more
Yes, that’s certainly possible, but you wouldn’t override anything- instead you’d fetch and add the custom names when they’re registered. For a quick example, say you have an option that stores the names: $taxonomies = array( ‘ingredient_1’ => ‘Toppings’, ‘ingredient_2’ => ‘Sauce’ ); add_option( ‘my_tax_names’, $taxonomies ); Then when you register the taxonomies: $taxonomies = … Read more
You can apply the content filters to $page->post_content like so: echo apply_filters(‘the_content’, $page->post_content);
Here’s my suggestion… while I would usually give you a suggestion using the_content, I don’t know how this code works into the rest of the theme. So a quick, simple, and dirty fix would be to change the length to a crazily high number. If you don’t like that answer, I’m sure somebody will respond … Read more
You create a new query and assign it to $my_qry, but you never loop over those results. See the codex page for WP_Query, the loop has to reference your new query object: $my_qry = new WP_Query($args); if ( $my_qry->have_posts() ) : while ( $my_qry->have_posts() ) : $my_qry->the_post(); // etc.. endwhile; endif;
What I’m trying to do is make a separate page on the site that lists all posts (not sorted by tag/category/year) in a single, easily-accessible portion of the site by just going to /archive (e.g. www.example.com/archive) The correct approach is, indeed, to create a custom page template, so that the user can create a static … Read more
You can use isset() or property_exists() to check if the property exists. foreach ( $taxonomies_password_terms_obj as $taxonomy) { if( isset( $taxonomy->term_id ) ){ $options_password_taxonomies[$taxonomy->term_id] = $taxonomy->name; } }
