Pages with tag Wordpress

Correct character encoding with DOMDocument implementing a Wordpress content filter Using DOMDocument in a Wordpress content filter lets you correctly manipulate the content as HTML. It might be that Wordpress filters are commonly using regular expressions or text search/replace functions. While that can be fast and powerful, correctly changing HTML elements requires an HTML-oriented API. The specifics of HTML elements are such that regular expressions and text search/replace functions just don't cut it due to the many pitfalls from highly specific details of HTML. With DOMDocument you simply load the HTML into the library, then you use DOM functions to manipulate the HTML, then you serialize the DOM to HTML text, and voila powerful HTML manipulations easily performed. Unfortunately that method comes with its own pitfalls you must be careful of.
Create hierarchical navigation for custom post types in Wordpress with PODS On (longtailpipe.com) my Wordpress site I want to create "documentation" areas with a cluster of pages organized as a hierarchy, with an index to those pages showing as a sidebar. Many think of doing this for "Product Documentation", but I simply want to organize notes and additional material related to some books that I'm writing. Just as a book is organized by chapters and subsections, I want to hierarchically organize these pages.
Detect website visitors running ad blockers, gently remind them your livelihood is impacted The adblockocalypse was supposed to make it impossible for website owners to make a living, because everyone is going to run ad blockers and we'd get no advertising revenue. Those of us who write on our websites have for years lived under the belief/hope that running advertising would give us a livable income letting us get on with the business of writing. While website advertising no longer works that well, it's an important component of the full monetization strategy every blogger or website author uses.
Headless Wordpress/Drupal is galloping into view with Sleepy Hollow references tagging along for the ride Headless Wordpress is becoming a thing, now that Wordpress 4.4 has been released and has some core support for a REST API. The Drupal world has seen Headless Drupal work for a couple years now, and the Wordpress community has seen the light as well. The advantages of decoupling the website rendering from content management are many, the biggest perhaps being the rapidly changing best practices landscape for delivering content to the display device. The capabilities at the client end are rapidly morphing, much more quickly than the release cycles of the content management systems.
How to customize the per-post authoring byline in Wordpress
How to restore a MySQL database and tables from .frm .ibd or .myd raw database files Consider a situation - you've got a well tuned MySQL database server running some popular websites. The sites are implemented with Drupal and Wordpress, but using MySQL to store the content and settings. You think everything is fine, until one day you look at Google Analytics and are aghast to see zero traffic for the previous two days. You go to the websites and are greeted by a 404 error, with the server saying there's nothing there. You try logging into the server, but cannot, your login attempt is refused. You contact the hosting provider for help, and they tell you the directory containing all your websites and other files is completely empty. Oh.. and there's a note left behind from someone giving an http-something-or-other URL to click on, demanding payment in order for the server to be restored.
If Wordpress is switching from PHP to Node.js, how should they do it? Supposedly the Wordpress team is migrating Wordpress from PHP to Node.js.
The difference between Node.js require, and Wordpress plugins or Drupal modules

Someone experienced with using Wordpress, or Drupal, to build websites are accustomed to "plugins" or "modules". Both are software modules which extend the functionality of Wordpress or Drupal websites, giving more features to the system than what's available out of the box. For example it's typical for a Drupal site to install Views to support building fancy data displays, and on (longtailpipe.com) my Wordpress blog I've added the PODS Framework to simplify defining custom post types along with custom fields.
The simple cure if a Wordpress custom content type doesn't display, but gives a 404 page not found Sometimes custom content types stop displaying, on a Wordpress site.
Wordpress local development environment with Docker and Docker Compose on your laptop We normally install Wordpress on a public Internet server, and installation on your local machine is normally limited to developing or testing a Wordpress feature or theme. The development loop is a lot shorter when you can directly edit Wordpress files on your machine, as opposed to working out a method to edit remote files. While it's convenient, it's not always clear how to create a website hosting environment on your laptop. In the past we would use MAMP (or the Windows equivalent), which is a macOS-native environment for running Apache/MySQL/PHP stacks. But today we have a different tool, Docker, that is easily able to run that stack, as well as any other stack. Docker easily runs on a laptop, so let's take a look at using it to run a local Wordpress development environment.
Wordpress production deployment with Docker Compose Hosting a Wordpress site in Docker is relatively easy, and is largely a matter of properly configuring three standard containers. It requires a MySQL database, NGINX, and the Wordpress PHP-FPM container, with simple configuration. Starting from a freshly provisioned virtual server, the process takes less than two hours to set up hosting with HTTPS support.
