Conditional statements in wordpress themes

I have the following code at the start of my single.php loop that displays the post featured image as a background.

<?php  $featured_background = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( get_the_ID() ), 'full' ); ?>    

<div class="parallax" id="parallax1" style="background: url(<?php echo $featured_background['0'];?>)  !important; background-position: 50% 50% !important; background-repeat: no-repeat !important; background-size: cover !important; background-attachment: fixed !important;" data-stellar-background-ratio=".5">
        <div class="parallax-content">
            Some content            
        </div>
</div>

I've set .parallax to be 600px high in the stylesheet.

Of course this poses a problem for posts that don't have a featured image.

It seems then that I need a conditional statement that only displays the code above if the post has a thumbnail.

I've looked at the wordpress codex, but am unsure how to apply the teachings there to my case. It also looks like they'd be a lot of use of the echo command due to all the HTML.

I think I understand the first part of the statement which will be something like:

<?php

if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
    echo'my html code as above'
}
else {
    just get on with rendering the rest of the page
}
?>

But then I don't understand how to tell it to just get on with rendering the page in the else statement.

String taken from database table post_meta is showing HTML tags on Frontend

I have saved a string in post_meta table in wordpress database with html entities like-

<p>Hello <b>Shashank</b>, I have an idea.</p>

When I get this string on frontend using function

get_post_meta(get_the_id(),field_name, true).

It echoes string with HTML entities as same as it stores in DB.

But I want to show this sting as "Hello Shashank, I have an idea."

How can I do this.?

Submit a form without keyboard input, addition with the help of button

I am new to WordPress. I want to create sales status website, something like this...

< - button>Item 1< + button> < - button>Item 2< + button> < - button>Item 3< + button> < - button>Item 4< + button> I want a plus and minus button to add the number of a particular item.

For example if I sold (item 1) 4 times, I will click it 4 times and the number will show at the bottom.

Do I need to use a form plugin for this

wp_get_attachment_image_src and server path

wp_get_attachment_image_src will give me URL and dimensions for an image.

But is there any way to get the server path for a scaled image (like /html/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/cat-2-300x225.jpeg)? I know about get_attached_file but this returns only the original image.

I'd like to avoid hacky solutions (string-replacing domains and such) or using WP_Image_Editor directly. Also it should be multisite-proof. Is there something official I've just missed?

Wordpress Home page issue

At this point, I can only do changes to my home page at tomwitek.com by doing changes directly to html and uploading it to my server directly. My static page is set in the Reading to Home which was a page I created for displaying the tomwitek.com. The page i used was http://ift.tt/1HVQK3X

Now, I was able to change this page directly using pages panel and it would update the page at Home location. What happens right now is that even though I deleted the http://ift.tt/1HVQK3X at some point the home page was still loading as if the page was there, so now i can only make changes through html.index and only to homepage.

How do I fix this so that it goes back to me being able to do changes through wordpress pages panel instead of doing changes to index.html?

Also, whenever i do changes to index.html (for example I combined 38 css files into 2 (cant get it to one because it breaks my site in IE) these changes are not reflected on my other pages on the site (they still use the original calls for css and js so i get bad Google speed all around)

Which file caused this changes to happen, I am not sure if this was something I did or it happened when there was upgrade to wordpress or upgrade to php?

Help needed.

Is possible to add post-formats to custom-post-type?

I was wondering if there is some way to put together the custom-post-types and post-formats so I can code a new post type and offer some variations as post-formats.

I'm involved in a company directory conceptualization and we have to mix different kind of company. While almost all of this types share the same data fields, there are two specific kind of companies - hotels & bistros - which has especific requirements (custom taxonomies and some data fields).

In your opinion, which is the best approach?

• Use three custom-post-type: 'company', 'bistro' & 'hotel'.


• Use one custom-post-type w/ post-formats.


• Use only one custom-post-type and use conditional logic to add or not specific data-models.

Thanks in advance!!!

How can I integrate a lightweight payment process in my wordpress site? ¿WPe-Commerce?

I am on a wordpress website that is not a shop, the website offers information in maps. The issue is that the website offers a service of creating legal contracts. The logic is that a registered user gives the personal data, contract data, etc and then the owners of the website make a legal contract.

The point is that this action must be paid by the customers and I want to implement payment process.

I saw that I good option is to use Gravity Form with its payment plugins, but the prices is high.

I saw also that there is another way with WPe-Commerce, but I don't know if it's convenient to use for this purpose.

    add_action('wpcf7_before_send_mail', 'my_dynamic_attachments');

function my_dynamic_attachments($cf7) {
    $id = $cf7->id();
    $upload_dir = wp_upload_dir('2015/03');
    if ($id==1326){
        $submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();
        $data = $submission->get_posted_data();
        $pdf = $data['brochures'][0];
        //echo $pdf;
        $submission->add_uploaded_file('pdf', $upload_dir['path'].'/'.$pdf);
    }
}

The problem is if file is sent only i uncomment the "echo". Since he was comment, file not be sent and i don't understand why ...

Have an idea ?

Thanks

I cannot customize custom widgets anymore after moving WordPress website

Originally posted here.

The situation is the following one: A colleague of mine built a WordPress theme with some custom widgets which need to be configured through /wp-admin/widgets.php.

In the local copy that me and him have installed everything works fine (it's the latest WP, the production database and the theme from bitbucket). The production is ok, but it's impossibile to change the widgets options since every widget has a There are no options for this widget. label.

So I did a setup from scratch: I created a new WP-ready droplet on Digital Ocean, imported the database I have locally (1:1 production since I changed my /etc/hosts to point the production domain to my localhost) and cloned the theme, but still I got the same issue of production: Widgets were not customizable. Also there are no references to localhost in wp_option rows.

tl;dr: With the same database and the same files, the website works fine locally while in the production machine (AWS) and in the staging droplet (DO) widgets are not customizable.

Duplicate slugs in wp Database

While updating a category I keep getting "Item not updated" message, after a little research I found that it is due to duplicate slugs in the database.

I know a slug cannot be duplicated, so now I am wondering how is this possible that database has duplicate entries for slug and how can I get rid of these?

I am using WP-ecommerce categories, where these errors keep coming.

You can see the duplicate entries in term_id 27 & 963.

How do I change attachment slug from name to id

I need to change the slug of the attachment post. Currently, it is showing attachment name , I want it to be replaced by id of attachment.

Select box saves but doesn't update value in admin

I have a select dropdown in my custom meta box in the admin area. It offers two options Approved and In Progress. When I select an option and save it the database is updated, but the value in the admin area is not. What I see is the first item from the list displayed in the select box. i.e. if I select In Progress and save the admin shows Approved as the selected value even though it is saved as In Progress in the database and displays In Progress on the front end of the site.

Here is my code:

<label for="myplugin_meta_box_select">Status:</label>
<select name="myplugin_meta_box_select" id="myplugin_meta_box_select">
  <option value="Approved" <?php selected( $selected, 'approved' ); ?>>Approved</option>
  <option value="In Progress" <?php selected( $selected, 'inprogress' ); ?>>In Progress</option>
</select>

And I save it with this:

if( isset( $_POST['myplugin_meta_box_select'] ) )
        update_post_meta( $post_id, 'myplugin_meta_box_select', esc_attr( $_POST['myplugin_meta_box_select'] ) );

What have I missed out?

Right, I should have pasted the whole code for my meta box at first, but I genuinely thought that it was just this snippet that was causing the problems. You live and learn. Here is my code: http://ift.tt/1OCbsev

adding more text to a query string

On a site I am developing, I need a "special search" function. The search page is called with a search query from a form with _GET parameters like this : http://ift.tt/1M9EHqj

In the search page itself (where the result will be), how can I concatenate the s1 and s2 arguments so the results for wordpress would be treated as if it receives: http://ift.tt/1NgTX1y

Thanks for your help

Query post using Advanced Custom fields (Text one textfield with multi values;comma separation)

Hi i developed a page template that query post through the use of ACF lets call it page-test.php with this code:

<?php 

     $appvalue = get_field('em_application_value');
     $appexplode = explode(",",$appvalue);
     $appimplode = implode(" or ",$appexplode);

     $prodvalue = get_field('em_product_value');
     $prodexplode = explode(",",$prodvalue);
     $prodimplode = implode(" or ",$prodexplode);

     $resultnum = get_field('em_number_of_results_to_show');

    ?>

    <div style="margin: 5% 8.3333%">
     <h1>Application <?php echo $appimplode; ?> and Product <?php echo $prodimplode; ?> results:</h1>
    </div>


    <?php



    // args
    $args = array(
        'numberposts'   => $resultnum,
        'post_type'     => 'post',
        'meta_query'    => array(
        'relation'      => 'AND',
        array(
              'key'     => 'em_application',
              'value'   => $appexplode,
              'compare' => 'IN'
        ),
        array(
              'key'     => 'em_product',
              'value'   => $prodexplode,
              'compare' => 'IN'
        )
      )
    );

    // query
    $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
    ?>

    <?php if( $the_query->have_posts() ): ?>
    <?php
    // Start the loop.
    while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); 

        /*
        * Include the Post-Format-specific template for the content.
        * If you want to override this in a child theme, then include a file
        * called content-___.php (where ___ is the Post Format name) and that will be used instead.
        */
        get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );

        // If comments are open or we have at least one comment, load up the comment template.
        /* if ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) :
            comments_template();
        endif; */

    // End the loop.
    endwhile;
    ?>
    <?php else: ?>

    <div style="margin: 5% 8.3333% 1%; background: #fff;  padding: 5% 10%;">
     Not found
    </div>

    <?php endif; ?>

Then In page editor when you select this template , custom fields will appear and I named them

em_application_value for Application textfield em_product_value for Product textfield em_number_of_results_to_show and for numeric field

The use of the template is to query posts through these custom fields. the first attempt was okay but when i tried to input multiple values the posts couldn't show in the frontend. Maybe i have an error for content.php (twentyfiftheen theme)

My only problem here is that what if the single post has multiple application and product values? let's say in one single textfield i can put multiple values separated with commas and i want the wordpress to detect that they are different values. how can page-test.php compare the words using "IN" . please help

Custom view on data

I created two custom post types - Company and Item. I established a relation between them using Posts2Posts plugin. What is the best, most correct way to create a template/view displaying all the items of a company.

Wordpress created this URLs for me: site/company/company_1 and site/item/item_1 . I want a link of format site/companies_items/company_1 which would display all the company_1's items.

Thank you for your time.
