Why not set your own image sizes from within your theme in functions.php? add_image_size( ‘some-image-size-name’, 500, 300 ); Then you can call that size you want from your template. <?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail( $post_id, $size, $attr ); ?> Links Add image size: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size get post thumbnail: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_post_thumbnail
These are actually two questions. The second question – how to add categories to attachments – is already answered. How to restrict uploading attachment to a specific role? The capability to do that is named upload_files in WordPress. Some roles have this capability by default: authors, editors, administrators. I would restrict it to editors and … Read more
Ended up using wp_handle_upload(), which puts MIME type into the DB automatically. See http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_handle_upload One thing to note, this function enters the file in the DB as post meta and not as an attachment. wp_insert_attachment() would do the latter.
I’d do something along the lines: Prepare a spreadsheet with all the data to be exported as CSV Use a plugin to import: Importing data from spreadsheet into wordpress DB, along with custom taxonomies and their terms Or custom code: How to Import Categories with Descriptions from a CSV File? If possible, use a development … Read more
In this part: getimagesize($path.”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”.$_POST[‘name’]); the variable $path is an array. Try to use getimagesize($path[‘path’].”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”.$_POST[‘name’]); instead.
Given that that is a filter, it should be returning $metadata instead of returning nothing. add_filter( ‘wp_generate_attachment_metadata’, ‘mvt_save_photo_credit’, 10, 2 ); function mvt_save_photo_credit( $metadata, $attachment_id ) { add_post_meta($attachment_id, ‘_mvt_credit’, $metadata[‘image_meta’][‘credit’], true); return $metadata; // <– giving back what we got } I was able to duplicate the issue you describe, and that small change fixed … Read more
Make sure to define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, FALSE ); in wp-config.php. For some reason it doesn’t allow you to add featured images from a custom post type with Debugging on.
Yes the better solution is to use add_role( $role, $display_name, $capabilities ); and make a distinct role for the front end. That way you have a separation of abilities that is easier to manage, the way you are doing it will lead to trouble.
The alt text is stored in the postmeta database table by WordPress, therefore we have to update the postmeta of the given attachment. The reference is done via the unique attachment ID, and the meta_key we are targeting is the _wp_attachment_image_alt. So, to set the alt text, we can do the following: update_post_meta($attach_id, ‘_wp_attachment_image_alt’, ‘Your … Read more
Upload your files over FTP to some dedicated location, like wp-content/flashbook/ or wp-content/uploads/flashbook/, and manually include the markup in your page. Presumably, the Flash only runs on one page so this shouldn’t be too cumbersome. Actually embedding Flash isn’t as simple as linking to it, but there is plenty of information on the web.
