Thanks Chip (excellent Settings API tutorial) and t31os (great snippet of code for quick testing) for both your suggestions. I did some further digging and found that the default messages can indeed be displayed if I hook into any menu but only if the function settings_errors() is called. For example, modifying t31os code as follows: … Read more
Custom collection in media manager?
https://github.com/scribu/wp-scb-framework/wiki This guy has built what you are looking for I believe. He’s a core-contributor and his code is top notch. And the project is open on github, so even better right?
You can use the WordPres Plugin Directory Slurper shell script by Mark Jaquith to download the the most recent version of all plugins from the WordPress.org repo. Once the plugins have been downloaded, you can grep for the plugin/hook prefix you want to check, e.g.: grep -r –include=*.php ‘wpseo_’ ./ Unzip the WordPres Plugin Directory … Read more
See How do you create a “virtual” page in WordPress for the solution. This should work for your case as well.
Symbolic links are … risky in WordPress. It is easier to use a separate domain for plugins per wp-config.php: define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_DIR’, ‘/local/path/to/plugin/directory’ ); define( ‘WP_PLUGIN_URL’, ‘http://plugins.dev’); See Strategy On Building Plugin Using Eclipse as an example for IDE configuration with such a setup.
My best guess would be: if ( ! is_file( $dir = WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/pluginb/pluginb.php’ ) ) { if ( ! is_file( $dir = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/pluginb/pluginb.php’ ) ) $dir = null; } return $dir; However, the danger here is still the assumption of the plugin’s “basename” – a well written plugin will still function even … Read more
We start by adding the custom TinyMCE Button: function add_mce_button_custom_em() { // check user permissions if ( !current_user_can( ‘edit_posts’ ) && !current_user_can( ‘edit_pages’ ) ) { return; } // check if WYSIWYG is enabled if ( ‘true’ == get_user_option( ‘rich_editing’ ) ) { add_filter( ‘mce_external_plugins’, ‘add_tinymce_plugin_custom_em’ ); add_filter( ‘mce_buttons’, ‘register_mce_button_custom_em’ ); } } add_action(‘admin_head’, ‘add_mce_button_custom_em’); … Read more
It depends on how you are going to use the stored data. If you want to run complex queries against the values, use a custom table with indexes optimized for those queries. If you will always just fetch all the values for a given object, create a non-public custom post type, and store the data … Read more
A GROUP BY statement can group your posts after the JOIN. For WordPress you can use the posts_groupby filter. add_filter( ‘posts_groupby’, ‘my_post_limits’ ); function my_post_limits($groupby) { global $pagenow, $wpdb; if ( is_admin() && $pagenow == ‘edit.php’ && $_GET[‘post_type’]==’listings’ && $_GET[‘s’] != ” ) { $groupby = “$wpdb->posts.ID”; } return $groupby; }
