] | I have, based on post category, added a password form (shortcode) whereof the purpose is to hide certain HTML code.
To do this, I have wrapped certain HTML-tags in a shortcode using the `the_content` filter.
The password itself is added through an array, which would be much better suited as an global setting through the WP admin settings page - but that's a different story.
**My main problem is this;** after submitting the password - no matter if the password is right or wrong - the user get "scrolled" all the way to the top of the page.
That should not happen, which is why I added a ID to the form. Upon submitting the correct password, the user should be kept in the same place, which is where the form was which is where the HTML code now is.
Makes sense? Part of the problem is this; there's no message for "password successful" or "incorrect password".
As you can see in the code, I've already tried to add the ID to the path using this:
`path=/#functioncode` without success.
**This is the full code:**
```
add_shortcode( 'protected', 'protected_html' );
function protected_html( $atts, $content=null ) {
$functionUserPassword = isset( $_REQUEST['password']) ? $_REQUEST['password'] : ( isset( $_COOKIE['functionUserPassword']) ? $_COOKIE['functionUserPassword'] : NULL );
if ( in_array( $functionUserPassword, array('password') ) ) {
$return_html_content = do_shortcode($content);
} else {
$return_html_content =
'<div id="functioncode" style="margin-top:20px;font-size:15px;">To view the content of this section, submit your password.</div>
<form method="post" onsubmit="functionCookie(this); return false;">
<input required style="display: block; width: 69%; height: 50px; margin-right: 1%; float: left; border: 2px solid #333;" type="text" placeholder=" Password Here" name="password" id="functionUserPassword">
<input style="display: block; margin: 0px; width: 30%; height: 50px; background-color: #333; color: #fff;" type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<script>
function functionCookie(form){
document.cookie = "functionUserPassword=" + escape(form.functionUserPassword.value) + "; path=/#functioncode";
</script>';
}
return $return_html_content;
}
```
**Here's the code which I am using with the content filter:**
```
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wrap_html_in_shortcode', 9 );
function wrap_html_in_shortcode( $content ) {
if ( ! in_category( 'premium' ) ) return $content;
$content = preg_replace('/(<span[^>]*>\s*<div[^>]*>)/',"[protected]$1", $content);
$content = preg_replace('/(<\/div>\s*<\/span>)/', "$1[/protected]", $content);
return $content;
}
``` | Not exactly sure what you are trying to do and this doesn't look like a WordPress issue, but submitting a html form will certainly lead to a new page load. So what you want is redirect not to the same page (which happens when you specify no action, leading the page to scroll to the top) but to an anchor on that page. The [usual way to do this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8395269/what-do-form-action-and-form-method-post-action-do) is to include it in the `action` variable of your `form` like this:
```
<a name="somewhere"></a>
<form method="POST" action="#somewhere">
...
</form>
``` |
383,498 | <p>I have a site that uses a set of 3 images for the header of its subpages. Each page has a different set of images. From what I could find, my best way to accomplish this would be to place an if statement within my <code>header-subpage.php</code>. The following is a snippet of my code.</p>
<pre><code><?php
if ( is_page( 'available-homes' ) ) {
get_template_part( 'sections/banner-images', 'available-homes' );
} elseif ( is_page( 'design-services' ) ) {
get_template_part( 'sections/banner-images', 'design-services' );
} elseif ( is_page( 'about-us' ) ) {

} elseif ( is_page( 'galleries' ) ) {
get_template_part( 'sections/banner-images', 'galleries' );
} else {
echo "page images undefined...";
}
</code></pre>
<p>Is there a more efficient way for me to do this? I am still learning PHP, but it seems like there might be a better more efficient way to loop through the pages than what I have done.</p>
<p>Thank you for any suggestions.</p>

Thank you for any suggestions. | There isn’t a way. You need to create a child theme or a plugin and put the functions there.
Note that there’s nothing special about child themes. The point is to put the code into something that somebody else isn’t going to update. So third party child themes aren’t safe either. |

```php
function my_find_heading_blocks( $blocks ) {
$list = array();
foreach ( $blocks as $block ) {
if ( 'core/heading' === $block['blockName'] ) {
// add current item, if it's a heading block
$list[] = $block;
} elseif ( ! empty( $block['innerBlocks'] ) ) {
// or call the function recursively, to find heading blocks in inner blocks
$list = array_merge( $list, my_find_heading_blocks( $block['innerBlocks'] ) );
}
}
return $list;

// Sample usage:
$post = get_post();
$blocks = parse_blocks( $post->post_content );
$headings = my_find_heading_blocks( $blocks );

383,658 | <p>I am trying to understand some fundamentals of php with regards to adding new functions to actions. I found a tutorial where he adds a new function to the <code>save_post</code> action…</p>
<pre><code>add_action('save_post', 'log_when_saved');
function log_when_saved($post_id){ do something with $post_id };
</code></pre>
<p>Is my understanding correct that when we fire the action elsewhere via <code>do_action('save_post', $post_ID, $post, $update)</code> the parameters we pass it at this time are automatically & instantly available to use in our new function we are adding to the action and that is what is going on here?</p>
<p>When we write <code>add_action('save_post', ‘log_when_saved’);</code> we are adding some new function to be run when the action is fired. This new function to be run can automatically use the variable values that were defined when we fired the action via the <code>do_action</code>. Is this correct?</p>
<p>What if we wanted to pass in the <code>$post</code> and <code>$update</code> parameters to this new function also… would we have to do the following…</p>
<pre><code>add_action('save_post', 'log_when_saved');

] | I am trying to understand some fundamentals of php with regards to adding new functions to actions. I found a tutorial where he adds a new function to the `save_post` action…
```
add_action('save_post', 'log_when_saved');
function log_when_saved($post_id){ do something with $post_id };
```
Is my understanding correct that when we fire the action elsewhere via `do_action('save_post', $post_ID, $post, $update)` the parameters we pass it at this time are automatically & instantly available to use in our new function we are adding to the action and that is what is going on here?
When we write `add_action('save_post', ‘log_when_saved’);` we are adding some new function to be run when the action is fired. This new function to be run can automatically use the variable values that were defined when we fired the action via the `do_action`. Is this correct?
What if we wanted to pass in the `$post` and `$update` parameters to this new function also… would we have to do the following…
```
add_action('save_post', 'log_when_saved');
function log_when_saved($post_id, $post, $update){ do something with $post_id, $post, $update};
```
One of the fundamental things I am trying to understand is do the parameters that we are passing our new function strictly have to be in the order that they were defined in `do_action('save_post', $post_ID, $post, $update)` and similarly, would you have to call all 3 if we wanted to get the last parameter `$update` to use in our function?
With regards to naming rules, could we also do the following…
```
add_action('save_post', 'log_when_saved');
function log_when_saved($some_random_variable_name){ do something with $post_id };
```
and it would know that `$some_random_variable_name` would be the post id because is first defined argument in our `do_action(‘save_post’, $post_ID, $post, $update)` statement?
Thank you in advance, | For this example lets say we have the following
```
do_action('bt_custom_action', get_the_ID(), get_the_title(), get_the_content());
```
The arguments that will be passed to `add_action` would be in this order
1. the post id
2. the post title
3. the post content
By default if we hook into our `do_action` without any arguments, like this
```
add_action('bt_custom_action', 'bt_callback_func');
```
Our call back function "gets" one argument, in this case the ID
```
function bt_callback_func ($id) {
echo $id;
}
```
In order to get the post content we would need to do something like this
```
add_action('bt_custom_action', 'bt_callback_func', 10, 3);
```
This will pass three arguments to our callback function and to use them we would do something like this
```
function bt_callback_func ($id, $title, $content) {
echo $id . '<br>' . $title . '<br>' . $content;
}
```
Now to finally answer your question about getting a specific argument.
If we go by this example
```
add_action('bt_custom_action', 'bt_callback_func', 10, 3);
```
we know that our callback function will get three arguments, but we only need the content. We don't have to set parameters for each and every expected argument. We can use PHPs `...`, see [Variable-length argument lists](https://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php#functions.variable-arg-list).
So now our callback function will look like this
```
function bt_callback_func (...$args) {
echo args[2];
}
```
Because in our add action we told that our callback will expect three arguments and we know that the third argument is what we need (the content), using `...` we now created a variable that will contain all passed argumnets.
In this case it will contain an array with three elements in order. ID, title and then content.
We know that content is last, third, in our array. We can target it directly like this `$args[2]`.

I dont know what post type you want to get but try adding it to the $args as well.
So you initial $args will look like this
```
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
// 'post_status' => 'publish', // this is optional, this will get only published posts
'orderby' => 'date',
'posts_per_page' => -1

] | I have a single page site with all content on it. The only other page I have is a "thanks for submitting the contact form" page. In this "thankssubmit.php" page I have my PHP form submission code.
I'm new to wordpress so I may be doing this totally wrong but I've created a custom page template for this "thankssubmit.php" page using /*Template Name: Thanks Submit*/.
I've then applied that template to a brand new page in WP. I can't add .php to the slug which is maybe the only problem but I can't see a way around this. A strange issue is that when I submit the form I go to the correct URL but get a "page not found" error. If I copy and paste this exact same URL I go to the correct page...
Below is the code for all.
I've had a look and I can't see this question being a repeat but if so a nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
Form

] | I just did a major update in my WordPress environment tonight to the latest version, and got an internal server error on the site. I then did a full inspection to see where the issue was coming from. I think I found the culprit...When I commented out the following line in my .htaccess file, the site came back...
```json
# SGO Unset Vary
Header unset Vary
# SGO Unset Vary END
```
In what situations do we ever **need** `Header unset Vary` in our .htaccess file? | >
>
> ```
> Header unset Vary
>

This is probably a workaround for a supposed [bug in Apache](https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2017/stripping-vary-host-header-apache-response-using-varnish) ([#58231](https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58231))**\*1** that could prevent certain caching proxies from caching the response when the `Vary: Host` HTTP response header is set. Apache might be setting this automatically when querying the `HTTP_HOST` server variable in a mod\_rewrite `RewriteCond` directive (or Apache Expression).
**\*1** Although this is arguably a bug in the cache, not Apache. The Apache behaviour is "by design" and a `Vary: Host` header should not prevent a cache from working since this is really the default behaviour.
However, if you are *varying* the HTTP response based on other elements of the request (such as the `Accept`, `Accept-Language` or `User-Agent` HTTP request headers) then the `Vary` HTTP response header should be set appropriately and should not simply be *unset*.
I am surprised, however, that this directive would cause an error. It implies that mod\_headers is not installed - which is "unlikely". However, you can protect against this and surround the directive in an `<IfModule>` directive. For example:
```
# SGO Unset Vary
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header unset Vary
</IfModule>
# SGO Unset Vary END
```
(From the indentation of the directive in your question it almost looks like this `<IfModule>` wrapper was missing?)
Now, the `Header` directive will be processed only if mod\_headers is installed. |

I cannot send plain text password to the endpoint.
Looking forward to your suggestions. | For the developers who are facing the similar issue here is what I have done to achieve the desired results.
The best way would be to develop the functionality from scratch but due to a tight deadline I opted to modify the [JWT Auth Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jwt-auth/)
I have modified the method `get_token` in the file `class-auth.php`. What I have done is that at first the method was looking for params `username` and `password` and I have modified it to receive `userID` as the param required. Why `userID` ? It is because I am running a `cURL` call to get the user data after the user sign in. Here is the code for the `get_token` method if anyone wants to use it. Although it was a small modification but it produces the required results. Thank you all for the suggestions. Happy Coding
```
public function get_token(WP_REST_Request $request)
{
$secret_key = defined('JWT_AUTH_SECRET_KEY') ? JWT_AUTH_SECRET_KEY : false;
$userID = $request->get_param('user_id');
$custom_auth = $request->get_param('custom_auth');
// First thing, check the secret key if not exist return a error.
if (!$secret_key) {
return new WP_REST_Response(
array(
'success' => false,
'statusCode' => 403,
'code' => 'jwt_auth_bad_config',
'message' => __('JWT is not configurated properly.', 'jwt-auth'),
'data' => array(),
)
);
}
// Getting data for the logged in user.
$user = get_user_by('id', $userID);
// If the authentication is failed return error response.
if (!$user) {
// $error_code = $user->get_error_code();
return new WP_REST_Response(
array(
'success' => false,
'statusCode' => 403,
'code' => 404,
'message' => 'User does not exists.',
'data' => array(),
)
);
}
return $this->generate_token($user, false);

Could you help me, please | To reduce multiple slashes at the start of the URL-path (or in fact *anywhere* in the URL-path) to a single slash (there is always at least 1 slash at the start of the URL-path, even if you can't see this is the browser's address bar) then you can use a directive like the following:
```
# Reduce multiple slashes to single slashes
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s[^?]*//
RewriteRule (.*) /$1 [R=301,L]
```
This uses the fact that the URL-path matched by the `RewriteRule` *pattern* has already had multiple slashes reduced. The preceding *condition* checks that there were multiple slashes somewhere in the URL-path in the initial request.
You would place the above rule second, between your existing rules. And modify your 1st rule that removes the trailing slash to also reduce multiple slashes, thus preventing an unnecessary additional redirect should a request contain both multiple slashes and a trailing slash. For example:
```
# Remove trailing slash from non-directory URLs AND reduce multiple slashes
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.+)/$ https://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# Reduce multiple slashes to single slashes
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s[^?]*//
RewriteRule (.*) https://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# Force HTTPS and remove WWW
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{https} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
```
I just tidied the regex in the `RewriteCond` directive that checks against the `HTTP_HOST` server variable. `^www\.(.*)$` can be simplifed to `^www\.` since you are not making use of the backreference here.
You do not need the `<IfModule>` wrapper.
Clear your browser cache before testing and preferably test first with 302 (temporary) redirects to avoid potential caching issues.

These rules certainly need to go near the beginning of the `.htaccess` file, *before* the WordPress front-controller.
However, they must go *before* the `# BEGIN WordPress` section. Not inside this block, otherwise they will be overwritten since WP itself maintains this code block.
They should not be overwritten if placed *before* the `# BEGIN WordPress` comment marker. |

It's misleading users.
Thank you. | Similar to @robert0's answer, you can unhook the nag from happening:
```php
remove_action( 'profile_update', 'default_password_nag_edit_user', 10 );
```
Just put that in your theme's `functions.php` and that should take care of it. |

Any help on how to make this work? | As @cjbj noted in a comment, this is probably a timing issue. This means that instead of directly adding the code to `functions.php` you need to wrap it inside a callback function and attach it to a later firing action. WordPress, themes and plugins too, [loads](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/71406/is-there-a-flowchart-for-wordpress-loading-sequence) and [does](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference) things in certain order. Thus some code needs to be added with actions to make them properly.
Personally, I usually add `body_class` filtering, if it depends on some data, on [`template_redirect`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/template_redirect/) (*Fires before determining which template to load*) action to make sure the code will have all the data it needs to determine how to filter the classes.
```
// Hook anonymous callback to template_redirect action
add_action(
'template_redirect',
function(){
// Get data
$cart_items = wcs_cart_contains_renewal();
// Check for truthy condition
if ( $cart_items ) {
// Hook anonymous callback to body_class filter
add_filter(
'body_class',
function( $classes ) {
// Add additional class
$classes[] = 'renewal-order';
return $classes;
}
);
}
}
);
```
*You can use named callback instead of anonymous ones, if you wish.* |

The code in those two method is, for all intents and purposes, the same. They are just using different syntax.
The 'React' method (they're actually both React) is using some newer JavaScript features, but those are just nicer ways of writing the same code that work in newer browsers. That method also uses JSX for the render functions. This is just a different way of writing those functions which can be turned into functions exactly like the first example by a build process.
The issue you're describing is going to be a challenge of developing blocks regardless of which method you use. When a post built with the block editor is saved, the final output of your block is just saved into the post content as HTML. When the post is loaded back into the editor, your block needs to be able to parse that HTML and reconstruct the block data so that it can be edited again. If your block has changed since that HTML was published, it may not be able to do this and there will be an error. This is the expected behaviour.
The proper method for handling block updates without breaking existing posts is to 'deprecate' the block. The official documentation, with code examples, for that process is [here](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/block-api/block-deprecation/).
If you encountered this issue when using ESNext, but not ES5, then that is more than likely a coincidence. It would have had more to do with *what* you were doing than which method you were doing it with, as this behaviour is a consequence of how block data is stored, and nothing to do with the JavaScript version used to write the block.
It's worth pointing out that this is not a unique problem for the block editor. If I write a bunch of code in any system that works with data in a certain format, and then I update that code in a way that changes the format, I can't expect the code to just automatically work with data in the old format. You need to think of the HTML your block outputs as a format, and approach developing your block accordingly. |

If your block has changed since that HTML was published, it may not be able to do this and there will be an error. This is the expected behaviour.
The proper method for handling block updates without breaking existing posts is to 'deprecate' the block. The official documentation, with code examples, for that process is [here](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/block-api/block-deprecation/).
If you encountered this issue when using ESNext, but not ES5, then that is more than likely a coincidence. It would have had more to do with *what* you were doing than which method you were doing it with, as this behaviour is a consequence of how block data is stored, and nothing to do with the JavaScript version used to write the block.
It's worth pointing out that this is not a unique problem for the block editor. If I write a bunch of code in any system that works with data in a certain format, and then I update that code in a way that changes the format, I can't expect the code to just automatically work with data in the old format. You need to think of the HTML your block outputs as a format, and approach developing your block accordingly. |

384,526 | <p>I using plugin advanced custom fields to show recommended posts in my sidebar (posts that authors select as recommended using radio buttons (yes or no)).
And it is all working well.</p>
<p>Now, i will need to show that same recommended posts in my mobile application via json.</p>
<p>I found this amazing plugin: <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/acf-to-rest-api/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://wordpress.org/plugins/acf-to-rest-api/</a></p>
<p>Now when i open json at /wp-json/wp/v2/posts i can see field ACF</p>
<p>And there i can see fields recommended_sidebar: yes or recommended_sidebar: no</p>
<p>But this JSON will show all posts (latest posts).
Is it possible to make some filter for posts?
I will like to show only posts that have recommended_sidebar: yes ?

<p>If is not possible to create that filter via url, then only option is to create custom endpoint.
So i create this:</p>
<pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code>add_action( 'rest_api_init', 'api_hooks' );
function api_hooks() {
register_rest_route( 'get-post-sidebar/v1', '/go', array(

function get_post_sidebar($request_data){
// $data = $request_data->get_params();
$data = array();
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'post_status' => 'publish',
'orderby' => 'id',
'order' => 'DESC',
'meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'OR',
array(
'key' => 'recommended_sidebar',
'value' => 'yes',
'compare' => '=',
),
),
'paged' => 1,
'posts_per_page' => 2,
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
$the_query->the_post();
array_push($data,
array(
'title' => get_the_title(),
'content' => get_the_content(),
'date' => get_the_date(),
'number_of_comments' => get_comments_number(),
'thumbnail' => get_the_post_thumbnail_url()
)
);
}
wp_reset_postdata();
$response = new \WP_REST_Response( $data );
$response->set_status( 200 );
return $response;
}
</code></pre>
<p>This this endpoint will show only sticky posts.
Also, it is set to:</p>
<pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code> 'paged' => 1,

<pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code> 'paged' => 2,

Hey all, Iain the Product Manager for Advanced Custom Fields here
As part of the [ACF 5.11](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/blog/acf-5-11-release-rest-api/) release we added native support for ACF fields in the WordPress REST API. Read more about that [here](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/rest-api/). |

Would you help me out with this issue? | ```php
$ExpiryInterval = "24 * HOUR_IN_SECONDS";
```
`$ExpiryInterval` is being assigned a string, but you need a number.
Consider this example:
```php
$foo = 5 * 10;
$bar = "5 * 10";
```
The value of `$foo` is `50`. The value of `$bar` is `"5 * 10"`. `set_transient` expects a number, not a string, `"24 * HOUR_IN_SECONDS"` is text/string, `24 * HOUR_IN_SECONDS` is a number. `HOUR_IN_SECONDS` is a constant equal to the number of seconds in an hour. |

Thank you so much for your help! | You can display the selected image when using the `Image ID` return type
`<?php $image = get_field('image'); $size = 'full'; // (thumbnail, medium, large, full or custom size) if( $image ) { echo wp_get_attachment_image( $image, $size ); }`
This function also generates the srcset attribute allowing for **responsive images**! |

] | In Ubuntu 20.04 wp-env is giving me error once i have installed it and while trying to start it with `wp-env start` .The error showing is `mysqlcheck: Got error: 1130: Host '172.29.0.5' is not allowed to connect to this MariaDB server when trying to connect`.

Still i am getting the same error . Can somebody please let me know what i have done wrong ? | Step 1: Find the name of your wp-env container
First, you need to locate the name of the container created by wp-env. To do this, in the directory of your project containing .wp-env.json, you must run the following command:
```
docker ps
```
This should give you a list of containers. In the Names column, you’ll see the following information:
```
7b3099bc856ae9db898a196c0465cadb_wordpress_1
7b3099bc856ae9db898a196c0465cadb_tests-wordpress_1
7b3099bc856ae9db898a196c0465cadb_mysql_1
```
In this example, “7b3099bc856ae9db898a196c0465cadb” is the name of the container created by wp-env.
Step 2: Access the directory containing your docker-compose file
Once you have the name of your wp-env container, you can use it to access the directory containing the docker-compose file created by wp-env. To do so, run the following command in your terminal:
```
cd ~/.wp-env/7b3099bc856ae9db898a196c0465cadb
docker-compose down -v
docker-compose up -d
```
This should create a fresh environment.
Step 3: Restart wp-env
Finally, go back to your project folder and run:
```
wp-env start
```
You should then receive a message informing you that your WordPress dev environment is ready.

=========================================
Following along with [this question](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/296510/divi-change-project-slug-based-on-category) and [this one](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/212455/change-the-url-of-projects-in-divi-theme)
But can not get the desired outcome.
**The default is:**
```
example.com/project_category/%category%/
```
**What I want is:**
```
example.com/stainless-steel-products/%category%/
```
I have changed the slug of the project archive so that `example.com/stainless-steel-products/` is the project archive.
Below is the code used to achieve that.
```
// Change peralinks projects
function custom_project_slug () {
return array(
'feeds' => true,
'slug' => 'stainless-steel-products',
'with_front' => false,

}

385,186 | <p>I would like to show an archive of posts that have two taxonomy terms in common. So for example, I'd like to show all posts that have <em>both</em> the terms "sauce" and "cheese" in the custom <code>food</code> taxonomy.</p>
<p>The trick is that I'd like to do this using the url. The closest I've come is with:</p>
<pre><code>example.com?food[]=sauce&food[]=cheese
</code></pre>
<p>Upon inspecting the $query from the <code>pre_get_posts</code> filter, I can see that:</p>
<pre><code>WP_Tax_Query::__set_state(array(
'queries' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'taxonomy' => 'food',
'terms' =>
array (
0 => 'sauce',
1 => 'cheese',
),
'field' => 'slug',
'operator' => 'IN',
'include_children' => true,
),
),
</code></pre>
<p>So then I change the <code>operator</code> to <code>AND</code> like so:</p>
<pre><code>add_action('pre_get_posts', function($query) {
$query->tax_query->queries[0]['operator'] = 'AND';
});
</code></pre>
<p>But my results are always including posts that have <em>at least</em> one term instead of posts that have <em>all</em> terms.</p>
<p>According to Query Monitor, the main query is as such (and you can see that it's looking for posts that have <em>either</em> of the two term IDs.</p>

] | I would like to show an archive of posts that have two taxonomy terms in common. So for example, I'd like to show all posts that have *both* the terms "sauce" and "cheese" in the custom `food` taxonomy.
The trick is that I'd like to do this using the url. The closest I've come is with:
```
example.com?food[]=sauce&food[]=cheese
```
Upon inspecting the $query from the `pre_get_posts` filter, I can see that:
```
WP_Tax_Query::__set_state(array(
'queries' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'taxonomy' => 'food',
'terms' =>
array (
0 => 'sauce',
1 => 'cheese',
),
'field' => 'slug',
'operator' => 'IN',
'include_children' => true,
),
),
```
So then I change the `operator` to `AND` like so:
```
add_action('pre_get_posts', function($query) {
$query->tax_query->queries[0]['operator'] = 'AND';
});
```
But my results are always including posts that have *at least* one term instead of posts that have *all* terms.
According to Query Monitor, the main query is as such (and you can see that it's looking for posts that have *either* of the two term IDs.
```
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.ID
FROM wp_posts
LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships
ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id)
WHERE 1=1
AND ( wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (6,9) )
```
So, how can I formulate a url to get only posts with *both* taxonomy-terms? | When I registered my taxonomy, I left out the argument for 'rewrite', which then defaulted to `true`. So by default, WordPress wanted to rewrite the url as `/food/whatever/`. The tricky thing was that it *did* accept the format `?food=whatever` , but wouldn't accept two different terms in that format when joined with a plus.
The solution was to specify the rewrite arg of `register_taxonomy()` like so:
```
register_taxonomy( 'food', 'post', [
...
'rewrite' => [
'slug' => 'filter',
'with_front' => false,
],
...
]);
```
And then I can use `/food/sauce+cheese` like @jdm2112 and the docs specify. |

I've created a child theme that enhances a popular parent theme. The enhancements include CSS, JS, and php. I want to use this child theme on multiple sites, and I want to allow for additional customization on each site without editing the child theme I created.
A few requirements:

This is a plugin, a folder containing PHP/JS/CSS, with a comment at the top of one of the PHP files that has `/** Plugin Name: XYZ` at the top of the file.
```php
<?php
/**

*/

**This isn't needed**. You can provide a hook/action/filter or use the existing hooks and filters WP provides. Including files directly from outside of the themes folder is bad practice and should never be necessary. In the long run it causes maintenance problems.

If you don't know then you can't know what to do, but that's okay. At some point you will need to update the child theme, and adding hooks is always good. The parent theme might do this too. Otherwise it's an unreasonable requirement, you can't know what you don't know.
### Custom JS and CSS
If you want to add extra javascript files and stylesheets to a theme without modifying the theme, you can do that in a plugin. Just enqueue the styles and scripts as you normally would.
WordPress doesn't see any difference between a style enqueued by a parent theme or a plugin, or itself. It's all just code that has been loaded into memmory. There is no such thing as a *plugin script*, or *theme style*, and no sandboxing, so nothing prevents you adding extra styles and scripts this way.
Perhaps if you wanted to add inline code tags I could understand, but there are APIs for this, e.g. `wp_add_inline_script`. If you really had to add it directly, there's hooks such as `wp_head` of `wp_footer` etc to do it on.
Custom PHP
----------
A plugin is by definition custom PHP. You can execute any custom PHP using a plugin.
If you wanted to replace a template with a new template from your plugin, you can do that too with the right filter. WooCommerce does it, lots of plugins do it, overiding specific templates or adding subfolders.

``` | I agreed with [@PatJ](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/users/16121/pat-j) — you should check if [`get_queried_object()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_queried_object/) returns an object or not.
But you could *simplify* your code by simply using [`is_category()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_category/) and [`in_category()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/in_category/) which are [conditional tags](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/conditional-tags/#a-category-page) in WordPress:
```php
if ( is_category( 3 ) || in_category( 'arta' ) ) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'twentytwenty-style-2', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style-arta.css', array(), $theme_version );

385,544 | <p>I am currently developing my first WordPress plugin and am currently a bit confused on how to change a record in a database.</p>

$id = (int) $_POST["id"];
$active = (int) $_POST["active"];
$tablename = $wpdb->prefix . 'myplugin_table';
$wpdb->update($tablename, array("active" => $active), array("id" => $id)); // Update record
}

<p>Now I have learned that the way I change the database is not safe regarding SQL injection. I should rather use the $wpml::prepare() function:</p>
<pre><code>$wpdb->query($wpdb->prepare("UPDATE $tablename SET active = '%s' WHERE id = '%d'", array($active, $id)));
</code></pre>
<p>Is the $wpdb::update() function really not safe?</p>
<p>According to the documentation, this is not necessary for the $wpdb functions: "$data should be unescaped (the function will escape them for you). Keys are columns, Values are values."

``` | The problem is that you are trying to use PHP inside a javascript file. **PHP only works inside `.php` files.**
If you want to pass information to your javascript file from PHP, use `wp_localize_script` to store it in a variable, e.g. in a PHP file:
```php
$values = array(
'foo' => 'bar',
);
wp_localize_script( 'yourscripthandle', 'objectname', $values );
```
Now whenever the `yourscripthandle` script is enqueued, it will put those values at `window.objectname`.
You can accesss them like this in javascript:
```js
const values = window.objectname;
console.log( values.foo ); // prints 'bar'
```

My question is, is it possible to dynamically add a counter that shows the number of items in cart beside the Cart menu item label in the frontend? If so, how? I think that the `wp_get_nav_menu_items` filter might be useful for this, but how can I identify the Cart menu item in there to be able to modify its label in the frontend on the fly?
```
function my_get_nav_menu_items( $items ) {
foreach ( $items as $item ) {
if ( is_cart_menu_item( $item ) ) {
// add a counter beside the Cart menu item label
}
}
return $items;
}
add_filter( 'wp_get_nav_menu_items', 'my_get_nav_menu_items', 20 );
``` | Based on Bhautik answer, I've found a solution to identify the cart menu link using the `woocommerce_cart_page_id` option:
```
function modify_cart_label_in_nav_menu_objects( $items, $args ) {
foreach ( $items as $key => $item ) {
if ( $item->object_id == (int) get_option( 'woocommerce_cart_page_id' ) ) {
if ( WC()->cart->get_cart_contents_count() > 0 ) {
$item->title .= ' ('. WC()->cart->get_cart_contents_count() . ')';
}
}
}
return $items;
}
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_objects', 'modify_cart_label_in_nav_menu_objects', 10, 2 );

Looking at the response, and using different URLs as origin, it looks like that my WordPress installation is setting the header `access-control-allow-origin` to whatever the origin of the request is. I was expecting a response with the following header:
```
curl -H "Origin: https://www.thewrongorigin.com" -I https://www.mywordpress.com/wp-json

```
What I want to do is modify my WordPress and set the header `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://www.mywordpress.com` for the URL `https://www.mywordpress.com/wp-json`.
My questions are:
* Is it okay to set restrict the origin in this way?
* What might be the consequences of doing it? Maybe plugins that rely on a header like `access-control-allow-origin: *` could stop working? Are there such plugins?
I've experience coding and working as a system administrator, but I'm fairly new to WordPress. | First of all, this is intentional behaviour, as relayed in a Slack discussion described in [this ticket](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/45477) (this has likely been discussed in other places, but that's the first I found):

So it should be noted that it's perfectly normal for `wp-json/` to be accessible from all origins, and it's not inherently insecure.
As for your questions:

By modifying your WordPress install itself? ***Absolutely not.*** You should never edit WordPress core files. Any changes you make will be overwritten any time WordPress updates, forcing you to make the change again every time, possibly leading you into the very bad practice of maintaining your own fork of WordPress.
If you want to modify core WordPress behaviour yourself, you need to create a [plugin](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/), and use the [Hooks API](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/hooks/) to make your changes by removing and replacing actions, or filtering values.
In this case, you'll notice that the header is sent in the `rest_send_cors_headers()` function. This function is run by WordPress by hooking it with this line:
```
add_filter( 'rest_pre_serve_request', 'rest_send_cors_headers' );
```
Which, according to inline documentation is inside a function that is:
```
Attached to the {@see 'rest_api_init'} action to make testing and disabling these filters easier.
```
So, if you want to modify `rest_send_cors_headers()` what you need to to is create a plugin, and inside that plugin copy the `rest_send_cors_headers()` function to a new function with a different name. Then you want to replace WordPress' version with yours:
```
add_action(
'rest_api_init',
function() {
remove_filter( 'rest_pre_serve_request', 'rest_send_cors_headers' );
add_filter( 'rest_pre_serve_request', 'my_new_rest_send_cors_headers' );
}
);
```
Where `my_new_rest_send_cors_headers()` is the name of your new modified version of the function.

Most plugins are unlikely to have issues, as they will be making the requests from the same origin, however you will have issues with two types of plugins that I can think of:
1. Plugins that work with an external service. That service may want to connect to your website via the REST API, and will be unable to do so if you are only allowing requests from one origin.
2. Plugins that make requests to your site's REST API from the server, using curl, or the [WordPress HTTP API](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/http-api/), without setting the Origin header to your site's URL. This is pretty unusual and rare, but not impossible.
That last point brings up an important issue: Setting `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` is not going to protect your data. It is trivial for a server to spoof the origin and make a request to the API and get that data. This header is *not* an authentication security measure, so if you want to lock down your API from the outside world, this header is not the way to do it. |

``` | When I create custom plugins I tend to add a single init function, which includes other plugin files, attached functions from these files to actions and hooks, etc. This way I have centralized place where the plugin is bootstrapped. This init function is then hooked to the `plugins_loaded` action in case I need to do some dependecy checking - i.e. some other plugin needs to be installed and active too.
```
// your-main-plugin-file.php
add_action('plugins_loaded', 'my_plugin_init');
function my_plugin_init() {
// check dependencies
// include files
// hook plugin function to actions and filters
// etc...
}
```
But the `plugins_loaded` action fires too early, if you also need to check for a logged in user. In that case a good action to hook your main init function to would be `init` as the user is authenticated by the time it is fired.
```
add_action('init', 'my_plugin_init_logged_in_users');
function my_plugin_init_logged_in_users() {
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

<https://jsfiddle.net/rvoLc3ph/> | When I create custom plugins I tend to add a single init function, which includes other plugin files, attached functions from these files to actions and hooks, etc. This way I have centralized place where the plugin is bootstrapped. This init function is then hooked to the `plugins_loaded` action in case I need to do some dependecy checking - i.e. some other plugin needs to be installed and active too.
```
// your-main-plugin-file.php
add_action('plugins_loaded', 'my_plugin_init');
function my_plugin_init() {
// check dependencies
// include files
// hook plugin function to actions and filters
// etc...
}
```
But the `plugins_loaded` action fires too early, if you also need to check for a logged in user. In that case a good action to hook your main init function to would be `init` as the user is authenticated by the time it is fired.
```
add_action('init', 'my_plugin_init_logged_in_users');
function my_plugin_init_logged_in_users() {
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
my_plugin_init();
}
}

Yes, you are.
[`$query->the_post()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/the_post/) does *not* display anything — it just moves the pointer/key in the posts array (`$query->posts`) to the next one, and setups the global post data (`$GLOBALS['post']`). So yes, in response to your answer, [`the_content()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/the_content/) would be what you would use to display the content of the current post in the loop.
But actually, you could simply use the [`page_id` parameter](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#post-page-parameters) like so, to query a post of the `page` type and having a specific ID:
```php
$args = array(
// Instead of using post_type and post__in, you could simply do:
'page_id' => 1149,
);
```
Also, you should call [`wp_reset_postdata()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_reset_postdata/) after your loop ends so that template tags (e.g. `the_content()` and `the_title()`) would use the main query’s current post again.
```php
while ($query->have_posts()) {
$query->the_post();
the_content();
}
wp_reset_postdata();
```
And just so that you know, you could also use [`get_post()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post/) and [`setup_postdata()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/setup_postdata/) like so, without having to use the `new WP_Query()` way:
```php
//global $post; // uncomment if necessary
$post = get_post( 1149 );
setup_postdata( $post );
the_title();
the_content();
// ... etc.
wp_reset_postdata();

The key to doing this is scheduling the first job to run daily at the required time, and have that event create all of the other ones after it is done.
```
function wcs_cron_system_update($step = 0) {
switch ($step) {
case 0:
// do what has to be done first
break;
case 1:
// second step
break;
case 2:
// etc
break;
}
}
```
If you start like this, you can pass the `$step` as an argument to it. So on the daily cron it executes step 0.
After the first step is done, what you can do is call [`wp_schedule_single_event()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_schedule_single_event/) like so
```
\wp_schedule_single_event(
// start in 5min
\current_time('timestamp') + (5 * 60),
'same_hook_as_daily_cron',
[1]
);
```
This will create an event for your second step. When that is done, just create a single event for your third step. Make sure [your `add_action` code allows for arguments](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_schedule_single_event/#comment-1042). |

<p>When I create meta_box by default the meta_box that I add will display on the same page admin back end, imagined when I clicked edit button to Home and About page my meta box will appear in both page. What I want is make a meta_box only show in “Home” admin backend page when I click the edit page.</p>
<p>My goal is set different meta_box in every different page, meaning the users specially the blog editor expect different meta_box_field in different page when they click edit button in each page, That is the thing I can’t figure out can you help me to solve that problem</p>

] | I am wondering how to add meta box in WordPress specific page admin, I mean when I create meta\_box with code snippet below provided from source tutorial is really perfect and effective but one thing that I need to control is display that meta\_box only in specific page for instance: pretend I have two page in my WordPress project named Home and About.
When I create meta\_box by default the meta\_box that I add will display on the same page admin back end, imagined when I clicked edit button to Home and About page my meta box will appear in both page. What I want is make a meta\_box only show in “Home” admin backend page when I click the edit page.
My goal is set different meta\_box in every different page, meaning the users specially the blog editor expect different meta\_box\_field in different page when they click edit button in each page, That is the thing I can’t figure out can you help me to solve that problem

Thank you for your support in advance. | Your conditional is in trouble.
`get_the_category()` returns an **object**, use foreach to find the specific category.
In addition, you assigned a value to the `$categories` variable, to compare you must use the [**comparison operators**](https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.php) ( Ex: == or === )
I refactored the code and adapted it to your case, I hope it helps.
```
add_action( 'save_post', 'wp_force_featured_image', 10, 3 );
function wp_force_featured_image( $post_id, $post, $update ) {

386,069 | <p>I wrote a WordPress theme for a non-profit where I use templates to style individual pages. I select the template for an individual page in the editor on the right:</p>
<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/znMdl.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/znMdl.png" alt="Template selection in editor" /></a></p>
<p>For styling of a template page, I simply add a css class to the outer most element in the template and style the rest based on the presence of this class - in this example <code>layout-krankenbett-gruen</code>:</p>
<p><strong>templates/KrankenbettGruen.php</strong>:</p>
<pre><code><?php /* Template Name: Krankenbett grün */ ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<main class="layout-krankenbett-gruen">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );
endwhile; endif; ?>
</main>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>I can style the page similar to the display in the editor using this code in <code>functions.php</code></p>
<pre><code>// enable style sheet for normal page display also in editor
add_theme_support('editor-styles');
add_editor_style('style.css');
</code></pre>
<p>such that all styles that get applied to the page get also applied in the editor.</p>
<p>I want to have the editor also show the templates as they look on the page later.
But somehow the css tag which I add for the template is not present in the editor and therefor the display of the template in the editor is not correct.</p>
<p>How can I recognize a template in the editor such that I can display it in the editor in the same style as on the page?</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong></p>
<p>I saw that the Twenty Twenty Theme also has Templates (Standard-Template, Cover-Template and Template for wide pages). If I change the template in this Theme, the page in the editor does not change, but the page itself does. Is that intended behavior? I feel like the user would like to see how a template looks (in the editor) before he applies it. Am I getting it wrong?</p>

I'm not an expert, BUT I did do something similar by following the instructions and tutorials I found at these links below, hopefully these will help guide you.
In a nutshell, you have to go beyond just enabling the stylesheet in the editor, you have actually add a stylesheet specifically for the editor (editor-styles.css) and declare your styles in that (being sure to keep them the same as your front-facing style.css file).
Also, way below I put my own code if it also helps to serve as an example.

386,280 | <p>I need some guidance on making a wordpress posts query responsive to user meta data, and whether it’s possible to do what I want within the query itself, or if further work is needed in the database first?</p>
<p>Every user on my site has a meta field with the meta key <strong>language_level</strong>. These broadly correspond to beginner, intermediate, advanced.</p>
<p>The post-login homepage of my site has a feed of recommended content. This is composed of posts tagged with a custom taxonomy, <strong>Recommended Resource</strong>, with tags that correspond to those user levels. Ie Beginner recommendations, Intermediate recommendations etc.</p>
<p>The goal is to have a posts listing where:</p>
<ul>
<li>Beginner users see posts tagged as beginner</li>
<li>Intermediate users see posts tagged as intermediate</li>
<li>Advanced users see posts tagged as advanced</li>
</ul>
<p>I’m currently using the query below in my functions to pull through all posts….</p>
<pre><code>add_action( 'elementor/query/article_video_together', function( $query ) {
$query->set( 'post_type', [ 'article', 'video' ] );
} );
</code></pre>
<p>… can I achieve my goal through a single query, adapted from above or does there need to be a relationship between the meta field and the taxonomy first?</p>
<p>I've asked this question in several places without getting a clear response, so I'm wondering if it's more complicated than it appears? Any guidance much appreciated.</p>

] | I need some guidance on making a wordpress posts query responsive to user meta data, and whether it’s possible to do what I want within the query itself, or if further work is needed in the database first?
Every user on my site has a meta field with the meta key **language\_level**. These broadly correspond to beginner, intermediate, advanced.
The post-login homepage of my site has a feed of recommended content. This is composed of posts tagged with a custom taxonomy, **Recommended Resource**, with tags that correspond to those user levels. Ie Beginner recommendations, Intermediate recommendations etc.
The goal is to have a posts listing where:
* Beginner users see posts tagged as beginner
* Intermediate users see posts tagged as intermediate
* Advanced users see posts tagged as advanced
I’m currently using the query below in my functions to pull through all posts….
```
add_action( 'elementor/query/article_video_together', function( $query ) {
$query->set( 'post_type', [ 'article', 'video' ] );
} );
```
… can I achieve my goal through a single query, adapted from above or does there need to be a relationship between the meta field and the taxonomy first?
I've asked this question in several places without getting a clear response, so I'm wondering if it's more complicated than it appears? Any guidance much appreciated. | The HTML of a WordPress page is a mix of many sources. Parts of it come from plugins, other parts from the main template, others from the database, others from the core. They can also come from widgets, template options, and so on.
Unfortunately, WordPress pages are not on specific files that you can open and edit their HTML.
In most cases, the pages are Frankensteins' monsters built from many different sources programmatically. And that's not a bad thing - the power of WordPress comes from its extensibility, which is a consequence of this design.
To change an HTML on WordPress, you need to track what is generating that HTML. Then, you modify it - either via the admin dashboard or programmatically (not by writing a bunch of HTML, but by calling PHP functions and methods).
If you are lucky, you may be able to change what you want on the admin dashboard with no code.
If the content you want to change is not changeable through the admin dashboard, you will need to do some coding. As you pointed, it would be best if you use child themes to avoid updates to overwrite your changes.
But if you got to this point, you need to understand how to code for WordPress first. You need to understand hooks, actions, filters, and so on.
A good recommendation is the book "Professional WordPress Plugin Development" by Ozh Richard. He is famous in the community and even referred to on the official WordPress documentation. But be aware that the learning curve can take some time. |

I've seen examples of people calling "do\_shortcode" to execute a shortcode, but I'm unclear where the shortcode function goes in my case, OR where to place the "do\_shortcode" call.
Can anyone offer guidance here? This is my first plugin and I'm a bit lost as to how and implement this functionality. Thanks in advance. | If I understand it correctly, inside the *shortcode template*, you could do something like this:
```php
echo do_shortcode( '[ta-intentclicks-link url="' . esc_url( $list_item['link'] ) . '"]Visit website[/ta-intentclicks-link]' );
```
But then, **instead of having to use [`do_shortcode()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/)**, you could actually simply call the shortcode callback from the (shortcode) template ( which then eliminates the need to find and parse shortcodes in the content or the first parameter for `do_shortcode()` ):
* If you registered the shortcode like so:
```php
add_shortcode( 'ta-intentclicks-link', 'my_shortcode' );
function my_shortcode( $atts = array(), $content = null ) {
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
'url' => '',
), $atts );
if ( ! empty( $atts['url'] ) ) {
return sprintf( '<a href="%s" target="_blank">%s</a>',
esc_url( $atts['url'] ), esc_html( $content ? $content : $atts['url'] ) );
}
return '';
}
```
* Then in the shortcode template, you could simply call the `my_shortcode()` function above:
```php
echo my_shortcode( array(
'url' => $list_item['link'],
), 'Visit website' );
```
But if that's not what you meant, or if you had a shortcode in a shortcode like `[caption]Caption: [myshortcode][/caption]`, then as said in the [Shortcode API on the WordPress Codex website](https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API#Enclosing_vs_self-closing_shortcodes):
>
> If the enclosing shortcode is intended to permit other shortcodes in
> its output, the handler function can call
> [`do_shortcode()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/)
> recursively:
>
>
>
> ```
> function caption_shortcode( $atts, $content = null ) {
> return '<span class="caption">' . do_shortcode($content) . '</span>';
> }
>
> ```
>
>
... your `run()` function (or the shortcode callback) would need to capture the second parameter passed to the function, i.e. `$content` as you could see above, and once you have that parameter (or its value), you can then call `do_shortcode()`.
(With the above "caption" shortcode example, the `$content` is the `Caption: [myshortcode]`.)
So for example, your `run()` function be written like so…
```php
// 1. Define the $content variable.
function run( $attributes = [], $content = null ) {
// ... your code (define $response, $layoutAttributes, $dataAttributes, etc.)
// 2. Then do something like so:
return $this->layout->render( $response, $layoutAttributes, $dataAttributes ) .
do_shortcode( $content );
}
```
But if you need further help with that, do let me know in the comments (and preferably, please show the code in your template and explain the variables like the `$response` and `$layoutAttributes`). |

Has anyone got any ideas....driving me a bit crazy... | WP CLI needs to know some things about the terminal it's running in to format the table, aka the TTY.
But when you pipe, there is no TTY!
But you can trick it into thinking there is if you use this bash function:
```sh
faketty() {
0</dev/null script --quiet --flush --return --command "$(printf "%q " "$@")" /dev/null
}
```
then you can run WP CLI commands and it will think it’s running in an interactive shell, not a pipe, e.g.:
```sh
faketty wp post list | more

I saw tips about "Last modified by/date" feature but I need to **show the table of all changes (revisions) done on post (Date/author/content- if possible).**
It's formally required for public institutions and I'm bit surprised there are nothing on Google.
Is there a way to do that? | There are many ways to do it, without third party plugins:
Shortcode
---------
**Cons**: shortcode has to be created, and added to all posts.
Child theme template
--------------------
**Cons**: theme dependent, and right template has to be modified.
Child theme functions.php
-------------------------
**Cons**: theme dependent.
Plugin in mu-plugins
--------------------
**Cons**: none.
**Pros**: not theme dependent, easiest to implement.
### Implementation
Create file `post-with-revisions.php`, with the following content, and place it in `wp-content/mu-plugins`:
```
<?php
function wpse_single_post_with_revisions( $content ) {
// Check if we're inside the main loop in a single Post.
if ( is_singular() && in_the_loop() && is_main_query() ) {
$content .= '<h2>Revisions</h2>';
$revisions = wp_get_post_revisions();
foreach ( $revisions as $rev ) {
$date = $rev->post_date;
$author = get_author_name( $auth_id = $rev->post_author );
$content .= '<h4>' . $date . ' by ' . $author . '</h4>';
$content .= $rev->post_content;
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpse_single_post_with_revisions' );
```
**Note**: revisions will be visible in single post only, not in archives.
UPDATE
------
For easier identification of changes between revisions, instead of displaying the content of revisions, we can display differences between them. The modified code follows:
```
<?php
function wpse_single_post_with_revisions( $content ) {
global $post;
// Check if we're inside the main loop in a single Post.
if ( is_singular() && in_the_loop() && is_main_query() ) {
$content .= '<h2>Revisions</h2>';
$revisions = wp_get_post_revisions();
$ids_to_compare = array();
foreach ( $revisions as $rev ) {
$date = $rev->post_date;
$author = get_author_name( $auth_id = $rev->post_author );
$id = $rev->ID;
array_push( $ids_to_compare, (int) $id );
$content .= '<strong>ID: ' . $id .' - ' . $date . ' by ' . $author . '</strong><br>';
//$content .= $rev->post_content;
}
$content .= '<h2>Diffs</h2>';
require 'wp-admin/includes/revision.php';
for ( $i = 0; $i <= count( $ids_to_compare ) - 2; $i++ ) {
$diffs = wp_get_revision_ui_diff( $post, $ids_to_compare[$i], $ids_to_compare[$i + 1] );
$content .= '<h3>' . $ids_to_compare[$i] . ' to ' . $ids_to_compare[$i + 1] . '</h3>';
if ( is_array( $diffs ) ) {
foreach ( $diffs as $diff ) {
$content .= $diff['diff'];
}
}
$content .= '<hr>';
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpse_single_post_with_revisions' );

For your code to function, it would require either `add_action` to implement time travel several microseconds into the past so that it can add the hook before it ran, or it would require `do_action` to implement precognition so that it knows about `add_action` calls in the future that have not happened yet.
By putting your `add_action` call in `home.php` or other templates that occur *after* the `header.php` runs, you are telling WordPress to execute code when a hook fires that has already fired.
It is the equivalent to arriving at an airport and trying to board a flight that has already left.
You need to add the actions *before* the action runs.
A useful mental model is to think of actions as events. When you specify `add_action` of `add_filter` it is the same as saying *"from now on, when this action runs, do this"*.
This is also why you do not see themes add filters and actions inside template files. These go in plugins and `functions.php` because those files are loaded earlier. |

A useful mental model is to think of actions as events. When you specify `add_action` of `add_filter` it is the same as saying *"from now on, when this action runs, do this"*.
This is also why you do not see themes add filters and actions inside template files. These go in plugins and `functions.php` because those files are loaded earlier. |

] | how to get all capabilities regardless of user roles? so far I am only seeing tutorial of how to get capabilities per user. I want to list all available capabilities in one page. | First, create `[all-capabilities]` shortcode. Put this code in your theme's `functions.php`:
```
function wpse_all_capabilities() {
$out = '<style>
.flex-columns {
column-count: 4;
column-gap: 3em;
column-rule: 1px solid #000;
}
</style>';
$out .= '<p class="flex-columns">';
$users = get_users();
foreach ( $users as $user ) {
if ( $user->caps['administrator'] ) {
$allcaps = array_keys( $user->allcaps );
foreach ( $allcaps as $cap ) {
$out .= $cap . '<br>';
}
$out .= '</p>';
return $out;
}
}
}
add_shortcode( 'all-capabilities', 'wpse_all_capabilities' );
```
**Update**: it is possible that `Administrator` has some capabilities removed, so we need to scan all users. Modified code follows:
```
function wpse_all_capabilities() {
$allcaps = array();
$out = '<style>
.flex-columns {
column-count: 3;
column-gap: 3em;
column-rule: 1px solid #000;
}
h2 {
text-align: center;
column-span: all;
}
</style>';
$out .= '<div class="flex-columns">';
$out .= "<h2>All Possible Users' Capabilities<hr></h2><p>";
$users = get_users();
foreach ( $users as $user ) {
$caps = array_keys( $user->allcaps );
foreach ( $caps as $cap ) {
if ( !in_array( $cap, $allcaps, true ) ) {
$num = array_push( $allcaps, $cap );
}
}
}
foreach ( $allcaps as $capability ) {
$out .= $capability . '<br>';
}
$out .= '</p></div>';
return $out;
}
add_shortcode( 'all-capabilities', 'wpse_all_capabilities' );
```
Now, you can use `[all-capabilities]` shortcode on your page. |

* Last Name
* Email address
* Password (Hash)
* and a few other Advanced Custom Fields
When I created the original code, I managed to get it to work perfectly if the user was already logged in and went to a specific page, but I can't seem to get the code to work during the sign up process (probably would have to happen after the activation as that is when the password is set).

] | I am looking for a way not to show the site logo in my homepage (but on all other pages). I can manage to do this only in the nasty way, using css and display none - however, I would like to avoid that the logo is not loaded on the homepage? functions.php?
best, Aprilia | I had a quick look at the [site-branding template part](https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/browser/twentytwentyone/1.3/template-parts/header/site-branding.php) which handles the rendering of the custom logo on the site header. There's a conditional check on two lines against `has_custom_logo()`, along show title theme mod, which determines, if the custom logo should be rendered or not.
Internally `has_custom_logo()` calls `get_theme_mod( 'custom_logo' )` to figure out, if a custom logo has been set. This means, you can use the [theme\_mod\_{$name}](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/theme_mod_name/) filter to change 1) the value of the theme mod and 2) the result of `has_custom_logo()`.
As code the above would be something like this,
```
function prefix_disable_logo_on_front_page( $value ) {
return is_front_page() ? false : $value;
}
add_filter('theme_mod_custom_logo', 'prefix_disable_logo_on_front_page');

And here's an example which changes the description of the Akismet plugin:
```php
add_filter( 'all_plugins', 'my_all_plugins' );
function my_all_plugins( $all_plugins ) {
// the & means we're modifying the original $all_plugins array

if ( 'Akismet Anti-Spam' === $plugin_data['Name'] ) {
$plugin_data['Description'] = 'My awesome description';
}
}
return $all_plugins;
}

The plugin is a custom one made by me. The use case is simply to change the page title, based on data that the plugin knows. It's pretty simple in concept. Not really another way to do it.
The shortcode defined in the plugin is displaying the detail for one specific entity (something like /individual\_display?id=5 ) and the page should be titled accordingly. The page shouldn't be titled "Individual Display" or whatever, it should be titled "Actual Name of The Individual Thing That Happens to Have ID #5"
Is it possible, and if so, how? | You can do it like so:
```
function filterDocumentTitle(string $title): string
{
// don't change title on admin pages or when global $post is not loaded
if (is_admin() || get_the_ID() === false) {
return $title;
}
// don't change title if shortcode is not present in content
if (!has_shortcode(get_the_content(), 'caption')) {
return $title;
}
return 'special title';
}
add_filter('pre_get_document_title', 'filterDocumentTitle');
```
If you're using Yoast's SEO plugin, you'll also need `add_filter('wpseo_title', 'filterDocumentTitle');`, since the plugin doesn't play nicely with `pre_get_document_title` alone. Other SEO plugins might need similar fixes.
In the above code I check for `[caption]` shortcode, which I used locally to test it, replace this with your real shortcode name (without `[` and `]`).
With this you'll know when your shortcode is part of a page or not. Now what is left to do, is getting the value you want for your title. For lack of more information I'll assume that your shortcode looks something like this
```
add_shortcode('myshortcode', function () {
$id = intval($_GET['item']);
$eventData = /* .. get event data via ID */;
return 'some contents depending on $eventData';
});
```
So that you don't have to duplicate your code, let's refactor this a bit to the following
```
function gholmesGetEventData(): array {
if (empty($_GET['item'])) {
throw new Exception('Only supported when item is provided.');
}
$id = intval($_GET['item']);
$eventData = /* .. get event data via ID, throw Exception if not found */;
return $eventData;
}
add_shortcode('myshortcode', function (): ?string {
try {
$eventData = gholmesGetEventData();
return 'some contents depending on $eventData';
} catch (Exception $e) {
// do something with the exception
return null;
}
});
function gholmesFilterDocumentTitle(string $title): string
{
// don't change title on admin pages or when global $post is not loaded
if (is_admin() || get_the_ID() === false) {
return $title;
}
// don't change title if shortcode is not present in content
if (!has_shortcode(get_the_content(), 'caption')) {
return $title;
}
try {
$eventData = gholmesGetEventData();
return $eventData['eventtitle'];
} catch (Exception $e) {
return $title;
}
}
add_filter('pre_get_document_title', 'gholmesFilterDocumentTitle');
```
With this setup you'll call `gholmesGetEventData()` twice. Once in the title once in the shortcode body. To optimize this, you can use WordPress' object cache's [set](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_object_cache/set/) and [get](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_object_cache/get/) methods inside `gholmesGetEventData()` to minimize DB requests. (So the second call would just return the cached result.) |

Let's get into detail
---------------------
So, what happens when we do:
```
$query = new WP_Query($args);
```
The WP\_Query class constructor checks if the `$args` is an empty array or not. And if it's not, it will run its `query()` method passing the `$args` array (which is at this point called `$query` array).
```
$this->query($query);
```
The `query()` method calls the `init()` method which unsets possible previous values and sets new defaults.
Then it runs [wp\_parse\_args()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_parse_args/) on the `$args` array. This function does not sanitize anything, it serves like a bridge between default data and input data.
The next call is for the `get_posts()` method, which is in charge of retrieving the posts based on the given query variables.
The first thing that is called inside the `get_posts()` method is the `parse_query()` method, which starts by calling the `fill_query_vars()` method (this one makes sure that a list of default keys are set. The ones that are not, get set with an empty string or empty array depending on the case).
Then, still inside the `parse_query()` method, the first santization takes place.
`p` is checked against [is\_scalar()](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-scalar.php) and cleaned with [intval()](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.intval.php)
Also [absint()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/absint/) is used on the following values:
```
page_id
year
monthnum
day
w
paged
hour
minute
second
attachment_id
```
Also, a `preg_replace('|[^0-9]|'...)` is run on `m`, `cat`, `author` to only allow comma separated list of positive or negative integers on these.
For other values at this point, only the trim() function is used. This is the case for:
```
pagename
name
title
```
After this, the method starts checking what type of query we are running. Is it a search? An attachment? A page? A single post? ...
If a `pagename` is set then we call (without sanitizing the value) `get_page_by_path($qv['pagename'])`. But checking that function source we can see that the value is sanitized with [esc\_sql()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/esc_sql/) **before it's used for a database request**.
After that, we can see that when the keys `post_type` or `post_status` are used, they are both sanitized with [sanitize\_key()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/sanitize_key/) (Only lowercase alphanumeric characters, dashes, and underscores are allowed).
For the taxonomy related parameters, the `parse_tax_query()` method is called.
`category__and`, `category__in`, `category__not_in`, `tag_id`, `tag__in`, `tag__not_in`, `tag__and` are sanitized with [absint()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/absint/)
`tag_slug__in` and `tag_slug__and` are sanitized with [sanitize\_title\_for\_query()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/sanitize_title_for_query/)
At this point the `parse_query()` method is over, but we still are inside the `get_posts()` method.
`posts_per_page` is sanitized.
`title` is being used unsanitized but with a [prepared statement](https://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.prepare.php). You may find this question interesting: [Are prepared statements enough to prevent SQL injection?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/134099/are-pdo-prepared-statements-sufficient-to-prevent-sql-injection)
Then we have `post__in` and `post__not_in` that are being sanitized with [absint()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/absint/).
And if you keep reading the code and pay attention, you will see that all the keys are actually being sanitized before they get to touch a SQL statement or a prepared statement is used instead.
So, to answer your original question:
**Does WordPress sanitize arguments to WP\_Query?**
It does sanitize most of them but not all. For example, `pagename`, `name` and `title` are only "cleaned" with the [trim()](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.trim.php) function (does not return SQL safe values!). But for the values that are not sanitized, a prepared statement is used to perform the database request.
Should you trust this?
----------------------
Well, in this specific case I would prefer to go for the possibly **redundant** just presanitize everything approach before you throw it into the query.
Me too, as an engineering student, I would love a solid yes or no answer. But note that the WordPress codebase has evolved in a natural way so it's just like nature: *messy*. It does not mean it's bad. But messy means that there could be an unseen edge-case where somebody could potentially sneak in with a bomb. And you can prevent that by just doubling your guards! |

Me too, as an engineering student, I would love a solid yes or no answer. But note that the WordPress codebase has evolved in a natural way so it's just like nature: *messy*. It does not mean it's bad. But messy means that there could be an unseen edge-case where somebody could potentially sneak in with a bomb. And you can prevent that by just doubling your guards! |

but when i send the Ajax request i have 403 error forbidden I don't know why i clear the cache and the cookie i use console log to debug the ajax request and it send all the data yet i have still that 403 ERROR and i don't know how to solve it | **Short answer — how can you solve the problem:** When you call [`check_ajax_referer()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/check_ajax_referer/), use `secure_nonce_name` as the first parameter, i.e. `check_ajax_referer( 'secure_nonce_name', 'security' )`.
A Longer Answer
---------------
The first parameter (which is the nonce action) for `check_ajax_referer()` needs to match the first parameter for [`wp_create_nonce()`](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_create_nonce/), but in your code, they are `secure-nonce-name` and `secure_nonce_name` respectively, hence that would result in the error 403 which basically means "invalid nonce".
So make sure the names are equal or that the nonce action is correct, e.g. use `secure_nonce_name` with both the above functions:
```php
// In the script in javascript_variables():
var ajax_nonce = '<?php echo wp_create_nonce( "secure_nonce_name" ); ?>';
// Then in the AJAX callback (send_form()):
check_ajax_referer( 'secure_nonce_name', 'security' );
```
Additional Notes
----------------
* You should consider using the [REST API](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/) which, unlike the `admin-ajax.php`, gives a better, human-friendly message when an error is encountered while processing the request. |

"https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/387818",
"https://wordpress.stackexchange.com",
"https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/users/54323/"
] | I've been struggling to find a solution for this and I don't know if it's the Gutenberg editor or if it's the hook `publish_post`.
Hook:
```php
function api_method($post_id) {
// If this is just a revision, don't send request
if ( wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) ) {
return;
}
// Get Post Object
$post = get_post($post_id);
open_log($post);
$postData = array(
'unit' => get_post_meta($post_id, 'open_unit', true),
'abstract' => get_post_meta($post_id, 'open_abstract', true),
'image' => get_the_post_thumbnail_url($post, 'full'),
'title' => get_the_title($post),
'url' => get_the_permalink($post),
);
open_log($postData);
$auth = base64_encode(get_option('open_up_username') . ':' . get_option('open_up_api_key'));
$status = get_post_meta($post_id, 'open_active', true) ? 'active':'paused';
$openUnit = get_post_meta($post_id, 'open_unit', true);
// $postMeta = get_post_meta($post_id);
// open_log($postMeta);
$responseApi = wp_remote_post(OPEN_REMOTE_POST, array(
'headers' => array('Authorization' => 'Basic ' . $auth),
'body' => 'unit='.$openUnit.'&status='.$status.'&abstract='.get_post_meta($post_id, 'open_abstract', true).'&image='.get_the_post_thumbnail_url($post_id, 'full').'&title='.get_the_title($post).'&url='.get_the_permalink($post)
)
);
$response = new WP_REST_Response($responseApi, 200);
$body = wp_remote_retrieve_body($responseApi);
$responseBody = ( ! is_wp_error( $response ) ) ? json_decode( $body, true ) : null;
$unit = isset($responseBody['unit']) ? $responseBody['unit'] : '';
open_log($responseBody);
open_log($unit);
$update = update_post_meta($post_id, 'open_unit', $unit);
open_log($update);
}
```
I'm using the post meta, featured image and title to post to a third party API. The API verifies the data and then returns a unit hash which I store in the post meta `open_unit`.
I'm also logging the data and responses in a log.txt file, and I'm getting this on initial publish:
```
object(WP_Post)#4421 (24) {
["ID"]=>
int(240)

}

```
The API is returning and saying that the image is invalid which is true because the image url is not showing in the `$postData` array.
After I edit the title and save, it logs below:

The hook itself works, and if you used the old WordPress post editor, then the issue in question would **not** happen.
So you can say that it's the Gutenberg/block editor.

Because Gutenberg uses the REST API, and by the time the `publish_post` hook is fired (when `wp_update_post()` is called — see [source](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/5.7.1/src/wp-includes/rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-posts-controller.php#L808)), the post's featured image and other meta data have not yet been saved/processed.
How to fix the issue
--------------------
*If you're using WordPress **5.6** or later*, then for what you're trying to do, you would want to use the [`wp_after_insert_post` hook](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/wp_after_insert_post/) which works well with the old/classic editor and the Gutenberg/block editor.
Excerpt from <https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/11/20/new-action-wp_after_insert_post-in-wordpress-5-6/>:
>
> New action wp\_after\_insert\_post in WordPress 5.6.
> ====================================================
>
>
> The new action `wp_after_insert_post` has been added to WordPress
> 5.6 to allow theme and plugin developers to run custom code after a post and its terms and meta data have been updated.
>
>
> The `save_post` and related actions have commonly been used for this
> purpose but these hooks can fire *before* terms and meta data are
> updated outside of the classic editor. (For example in the REST API,
> via the block editor, within the Customizer and when an auto-draft
> is created.)
>
>
> The new action sends up to four parameters:
>
>
> * `$post_id` The post ID has been updated, an `integer`.
> * `$post` The full post object in its updated form, a `WP_Post` object.
> * `$updated` Whether the post has been updated or not, a `boolean`.
> * `$post_before` The full post object prior to the update, a `WP_Post` object. For new posts this is `null`.
>
>
>
And here's an example which mimics the `publish_post` hook, i.e. the `// your code here` part below would only run if the post is being published and is *not* already published (the post status is not already `publish`):
```php
add_action( 'wp_after_insert_post', 'my_wp_after_insert_post', 10, 4 );
// Note: As of writing, the third parameter is actually named $update and not $updated.
function my_wp_after_insert_post( $post_id, $post, $update, $post_before ) {
if ( 'publish' !== $post->post_status ||
( $post_before && 'publish' === $post_before->post_status ) ||
wp_is_post_revision( $post_id )
) {
return;
}
// your code here
}
