Let’s expand on this topic a bit by slightly improving the code for creating a custom button in the WordPress text editor. It’s not a major change, but this code turned out to be useful in one of my projects. I hope it will be helpful for you too, as there's not much information in Russian about the TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor — and it’s quite an interesting topic.
In this article, we'll look at a simple example of how to create a custom button for the WordPress text editor.
For those who don’t know, WordPress uses the TinyMCE web editor script. It’s a free script, and judging by the fact that it’s used in this CMS (it was also used in Joomla in the past — not sure about now), it clearly has some advantages over other editors.
In this short note, I’ll show a simple example of working with cron in a popular engine like WordPress.
For a regularly recurring task (i.e., code that should run on a regular basis), you can use the following code snippet:
add_filter('cron_schedules', function ( $schedules ) {
$schedules['10sec'] = array(
'interval' => 10,
'display' => __('Every 10 sec'),
);
return $schedules;
});
add_action('init', function(){
if(!wp_next_scheduled('post_event_cron_action'))
{
wp_schedule_event( time(), '10sec', 'post_event_cron_action');
}
});
add_action('post_event_cron_action', function () {
echo 'Mail sent';
mail('test@example.com', 'Test subject', 'Test body');
});To retrieve a specific post type in WordPress filtered by a custom (or built-in) taxonomy, use the following snippet:
$Posts = get_posts(array( 'post_type' => 'my-post-type', 'order' => 'ASC', 'tax_query' => array( array( 'taxonomy' => 'my-taxonomy', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => 'event' ) ), 'meta_query' => array( 'AND', array( 'type' => 'NUMERIC', 'key' => 'event_date', 'compare' => '<', 'value' => time() ), array( 'type' => 'NUMERIC', 'key' => 'is_archive', 'compare' => '==', 'value' => 0 ) ) ));
Hello, dear blog readers!
Today, we’ll take a look at a standard topic for most WordPress-related blogs — creating a child theme.
Why might we need to create such a theme:
Yes, of course, all of these changes could be made in the current theme — if it was developed by you or built on demand. But if you're using a theme from the WordPress repository, it's better to make changes using a child theme. Because when you modify the parent theme, and then update it, all your changes will be lost.
