After going through the rabbit hole and back, the answer is – yes, core does allow to easily use dashicons when registering post types and adding menu pages. To use dashicon you need to pass its CSS class dashicons-[name] to menu_icon or icon_url in relevant places. Classes available can be looked up in dashicons.css in … Read more
I would say that you need to also create a custom taxonomy if you want it to be limited to the one post type. “Categories” is already connected to posts by default. From the WordPress Codex function people_init() { // create a new taxonomy register_taxonomy( ‘people’, ‘post’, array( ‘label’ => __( ‘People’ ), ‘rewrite’ => … Read more
This one’s actually pretty easy. When you declare your post type using register_post_type, you need to add a new argument for ‘has_archive’. So you’ll add in something to the effect of: ‘has_archive’ => ‘about-cool-post-types’ Then, go to your Settings > Permalinks to flush them and it should work. I tested it locally, and this seems … Read more
What you need is hooking template_include filter and selectively load your template inside plugin. As a good practice, if you plan to distribute your plugin, you should check if archive-my_plugin_lesson.php (or maybe myplugin/archive-lesson.php) exists in theme, if not use the plugin version. In this way is easy for users replace the template via theme (or … Read more
This is the answer to the question 🙂 <?php $args = array( ‘post_type’=> ‘services’, ‘areas’ => ‘painting’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ); $the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); if($the_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); // content goes here endwhile; wp_reset_postdata(); else: endif; ?>
To get the current post type use get_post_type(). Then ask get_post_type_object() for all the data you need, for example the slug: $post_type = get_post_type(); if ( $post_type ) { $post_type_data = get_post_type_object( $post_type ); $post_type_slug = $post_type_data->rewrite[‘slug’]; echo $post_type_slug; }
You can delete all post via $wpdb DELETE FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type=”post_type”; DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM wp_posts); DELETE FROM wp_term_relationships WHERE object_id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM wp_posts) or use this query replace it with {{your CPT}} with your Custom Post Type DELETE a,b,c FROM wp_posts a LEFT JOIN … Read more
From the looks of things, your safest bet and easiest route would be to fork the More Fields plugin specifically for your use. The two biggest features I can see your fork needing are a field “factory” and a drag-and-drop interface. Multiple Fields My suggestion would be to look at the WordPress Widget class and … Read more
I figured I would post the answer to this after Dimas was able to assist me. Utilizing his WPAlchemey Class I added a save_action var which looked like this (note that I am using the taxonomy for “category” which of course you can change to whatever your custom taxonomy might be): ‘save_action’ => ‘save_taxonomy_terms’, I … Read more
Solution from a cross post over at StackExchange from @birgire: The problem is that you run the clientarea_default_order callback too late. To fix that you only have to change the priority from the default one that’s 10: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’,’clientarea_default_order’); to the priority of 9: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’,’clientarea_default_order’, 9 ); But you don’t actually need two pre_get_posts … Read more
