##Plugin Necessity## What the necessity of plugins really boils down to is the question, “Am I satisfied that WordPress’s core functionality is all that I need?“ If all you want is a simple blog with some categories and a number of static pages you’re set.

A way to do it is to use the (very convenient) editor:image-edit and editor:image-update events triggered by the tinymce wpeditimage plugin to get/set the dom directly (updated to wrap in wp_enqueue_media action): add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_media’, function () { add_action( ‘admin_footer’, function () { ?> <script type=”text/javascript”> jQuery(function ($) { if (wp && wp.media && wp.media.events) { … Read more

You can see the detailed list of the hook using this snippet: $hook_name=”admin_bar_menu”; global $wp_filter; var_dump( $wp_filter[$hook_name] );
Assign return of the function to the variable. Check the variable with is_wp_error(). If true handle accordingly, for example trigger_error() with message from WP_Error->get_error_message() method. If false – proceed as usual. Usage: function create_custom_post() { $postarr = array(); $post = wp_insert_post($postarr); return $post; } $result = create_custom_post(); if ( is_wp_error($result) ){ echo $result->get_error_message(); }
wp_set_password( $password, $user_id ); See reference for details.

Please mail [email protected] and ask them to remove your plugin. Provide all infos and explain that you won’t start to develop the plugin so the name should no longer be blocked. I would use the same email as while registering the plugin (maybe even replying to it) and I think they will remove it after … Read more
