Function to retrieve a picture if there is no picture is attached

When editing a post with a custom meta box the values aren’t displaying correctly
I cannot be 100% sure since I can’t test without installing and running you code but I think the problem is that you aren’t echoing your selected markup. <option <?php selected( get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘cpi_dropdown_options’, true), ‘Option 1′, true ); ?>>No</option> The last parameter tells selected to echo output. Edit: Your options aren’t sending a value. Compare … Read more
Incorrect data after modifying post using backlink from wp_die
I don’t know why this issue occurs. The back_link is created in /wp-includes/functions.php. If there were a Javascript solution, it could be applied in the message of wp_die. For example: $msg = ‘Error’ . “\n<p><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/80375/javascript:history.go(-1)”>$back_text</a></p>”; wp_die($msg, ‘Error’, array( ‘response’ => 500 )); But this didn’t work… What I saw is that the Title and … Read more

How can i get the actor birthday by date?
For this to work you need the date stored in the database to match the $todaysDate and it probably doesn’t. If I am reading your somewhat confusing question correctly then you are storing dates like 20th Jan 2013 but you are matching it against a date that looks like 0120 (January 20). Even if you … Read more

Insert wp gallery shortcode into custom textarea
I’m sure it’s possible, but will require some work with both PHP and jQuery. This plugin by Thomas Griffin to insert an image into a meta box would be a very good starting point. You’ll need to do some digging around in the js files in wp-admin/js and in wp-admin/includes/media.php.
How to show custom field and parent post id in wordpress attachment page (image.php)

How do i get a specific user metadata using custom metavalue outside of wordpress?
If you have billing_phone as user meta, which is the preferred way, that query would be incorrect. The advantage of utilizing custom user meta and adding a field for billing_phone would allow you to use get_users(). $user = get_users(‘meta_key’ => ‘billing_phone’, ‘meta_value’ => $phone_number, ‘fields’ => ‘ID’); The above would give you an array of … Read more
