Escaping is used to produce valid HTML or other formats, and it depends on context. Escaping a url in something like <a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/215822/<?php echo $url?>”…. is needed in order to replace any “&” characters with & (although browsers will most likely fix it for you if you don’t do it). Escaping a url in an … Read more
If all you want is printing ID in a file, then you may write custom query for it. That way you’ll be able to avoid some internal processing WordPress does. Many posts may exhaust your RAM, although I don’t think just selecting ID of 2100 posts should really eat up 134MB RAM. Just do the … Read more
I see two problems with the code you’ve written. The first one is that the_title() echos the post title although returning the title would be more appropriate in this context. Also wp_reset_postdata() should be after the while loop inside the if statement. But as you mentioned that you only need the post titles, you can … Read more
I’m wondering if i should refactor my plugin using a ‘private’ Observer/Mediator pattern ie. collect all relevant add_actions to my parent class only and baking up a pattern to notify/forward subclasses of events, reducing the impact of my plugin to WP event ques. The event queue is fundamental to WP, so it’s pretty fast and … Read more
It’s basically a unique id of the script you registered or enqueued before. Let’s say we enqueued a two scripts with wp_enqueue_script(): wp_enqueue_script( ‘my_script_1′,’/js/some_script.js’ ); wp_enqueue_script( ‘my_script_2′,’/js/some_other_script.js’ ); Now you want to pass your $data to the script #2 with wp_localize_script(): wp_localize_script( ‘my_script_2’, ‘my_script_2_local’, $data ); After this – when WordPress prints out your my_script_2 … Read more
Things you can check: View the page source, and look for your js files, if they’re included or not, and whether their order is proper. Use console.log(SwoonAjax.ajaxurl) to check if you’re getting the proper path in your js file. In Firebug, switch to Console tab, and then try firing your AJAX request. You’ll see the … Read more
Yes, just change the readme in the tagged directory that is marked as stable.
This is a serialized array. PHP is able to read them as if they were regular arrays (or objects, in some cases) by using the serialize and unserialize functions (WordPress does this for you). All you need with WordPress to do is use get_option (or comparable WordPress function calls to retrieve data) and use the … Read more
You can add a timestamp to your post meta each time a product is viewed, then query the five most recently viewed products. Assuming you are using a custom post type named ‘product’, add the following inside the loop of your single-product.php template file: <?php if (get_post_type( $post->ID ) == ‘product’ ) update_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_last_viewed’, … Read more
The unit tests transform all CREATE TABLE and DROP TABLE queries to CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE and DROP TEMPORARY TALBE, respectively. So in your tearDown the query will attempt to drop temporary tables with those names, but not the actual tables. To fix this, add this before your DROP queries: remove_filter( ‘query’, array( $this, ‘_drop_temporary_tables’ ) … Read more
