My preference, use the filter To come to your real concern/question, in my opinion, the best approach will be to use the parent category ID and work from there. It will … Read more
It’s usually best to copy the existing one, name it something unique, and then add your own functionality. Copy the WP_Widget_Recent_Posts class from wp-includes/class-wp-widget-recent-posts.php into your functions.php (or, preferably, another file in your theme devoted just to widgets) and rename to something else, like My_Widget_Recent_Posts Add your functionality in there. Don’t forget to call register_widget(‘My_Widget_Recent_Posts’) … Read more

I try to put as much logic in plugins, so that the themes contain mostly layout stuff. If you use an action hook, it is still possible to use get_template_part() in that hook … Read more
Indeed, wp_localize_script() is simple, it just adds quotes around the values and escapes the content, expecting all of them to be strings. However, there is the l10n_print_after key of the array, which will be printed without any interference at all. It can be used to execute arbitrary code after the strings are passed. You can … Read more

To have the theme listed: style.css With at minimum this: /* Theme Name: Minimum Theme Description: Test Author: Test Version: 1.0 */ For the theme to be functional: index.php index.php must have a post loop, so this would be the bare minimum functional index.php <html> <head><?php wp_head(); ?></head> <body> <?php if ( have_posts() ) { … Read more
