Sidebars are stored in global variable $wp_registered_sidebars. You can get the sidebar properties using this variable. global $wp_registered_sidebars; if ( isset( $wp_registered_sidebars[‘sidebar-2’] ) ) { echo $wp_registered_sidebars[‘sidebar-2’][‘name’]; } Note that do not use it too early, either on/after widgets_init hook or in a template file.
The WordPress Codex says: It’s important to note that most WordPress functions properly prepare the data for output, and you don’t need to escape again. For example the_permalink() already escapes the output with: echo esc_url( apply_filters( ‘the_permalink’, get_permalink( $post ), $post ) ); so you don’t need to do that yourself here. But the get_the_permalink() … Read more
Thanks for the clarification in the comments. The confusion is between the WordPress.com hosted API and the WordPress.org REST API project, which are different. The WordPress.com API was developed by Automattic and is only available for websites hosted on the WordPress.com platform. There’s some overlap in functionality, but that’s not the documentation you’re looking for … Read more
The default Search widget uses the get_search_form() core function to display the search form. You can therefore edit the search form’s action <form role=”search” method=”get” class=”search-form” action=”http://domain2.com”> in the child theme’s searchform.php file. Here we assume domain2.com also supports the default WordPress search parameters. If we don’t want to modify the file, we can adjust … Read more

Look at this line: wp_redirect( home_url(‘/?page_id=7’) ); exit; echo $result; die(); When you use exit ( which is … Read more
This might be a solution for you: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/utc-time-and-local-time-problems/ It says that it’s a problem with PHP config, not WordPress. (Bringing the solution here for ease of reference) If you have shell access, do you get the correct date/time when you type “date” at the command line? If that’s wrong, contact your host. Try adding the … Read more
First part… OK, so in your theme/plugin you have: wp_enqueue_script( ‘jquery’ ); wp_enqueue_script( ‘scripts’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/scripts.min.js’, array( ‘jquery’ ) ); The first line, enqueuing jquery isn’t necessary – you put jquery as dependency in second line, so it will be included anyway. These lines inform WP that you want to enqueue given file as … Read more
Yes, you can use wp_update_user(): wp_update_user( array( ‘ID’ => 123, ‘user_nicename’ => ‘value’ ) ); Just replace 123 with the proper user ID, and value with the preferred user_nicename value. The function also enables you to change the value of other fields in the WordPress users table (wp_users).
That’s an unusual setup – Yoast usually recognizes the right permalinks. You may want to consider changing the way you set up your custom post type, so that it has the desired names and URLs to begin with. You’re likely to have two different URLs that point to the same content, which is undesirable for … Read more
