I created a plugin that will render a shortcode that is entered to a page. This Shortcode shall override the theme's page template and use the one that I included on the plugin Here's my code: api.php class Api{ public static $logger = null; function Api() { add_shortcode('my_shortcode', array(&$this, 'my_shortcode_function')); } function my_shortcode_function($atts,$content = null) { add_filter( 'template_include', 'custom_view'); } function custom_view() { $template = plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'custom-page.php'; return $template; } } add_action('init', 'apiInit', 10); function apiInit() { …

I'm turning out some subscriber archives and singles (profile pages) in my plugin where I'd also included a 'user-single' template, included via template_include. I'm experimenting however with trimming some of these templates out of my plugin in order to make it use theme templates. I've instead used locate_template( 'single.php' ) to choose the single template from the active theme. I'm not using the global wp_query to turn out my content in this case but the page shows a loop based …

Here's what I am trying to achieve: when a category page is loaded then, based upn the ID of that category, an "include" file is loaded. I believe that the below would work for some limited text, but I would prefer to load an "include" file b/c it will have multiple paragraphs and I feel it is better to manage that way. <?php $catarray = get_the_category( $post->ID ); foreach ($catarray as $cat) { $catid = $cat->term_id; if ($catid == 10) …

I have a code in below and as you can see I have a condition to read custom template for desktop and mobile. Now I want to use a custom url instead of a file.For example I want to include a page site.com/test instead of index.php <?php // Use anywhere if ( muneeb_wp_is_mobile() ){ include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/index-mobile.php'); } else{ include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/index-desktop.php'); } ?> Can I use this? include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/site.com/page1');

I'm writing a plugin that uses the template_include hook to use a custom template for a custom post type. This works with GET requests, but with POST requests, it 404s because the $post variable is null within this hook in POST requests. How do I fix this so that I can use this custom template for both GET and POST requests? namespace mynamespace; class MyPlugin { public static function template_include($template) { global $post; var_dump($post); //$post exists for GET requests but …

I am using this code and it works perfectly but it does not work if I activate the child theme how can I solve? add_filter( 'template_include', 'wpse_template_include' ); function wpse_template_include( $template ) { // Handle taxonomy templates. $taxonomy = get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ); if ( is_tax() && $taxonomy ) { $file = get_theme_file_path() . '/template-parts/taxonomies/taxonomy-' . $taxonomy . '.php'; if ( file_exists( $file ) ) { $template = $file; } } return $template;

I saw a lot of questions about including custom views in Wordpress (I mean custom templates). There were many answers. Some people recommend using template_include and others recommend using type_template My question is, which is better for working with custom templates? What are the pros and cons of both solutions?

Should I use include, include_once, require or require_once to load my customizer.php file? That file has all customizer settings and code in it. What is your advice on this? The file is currently being loaded with include() in the functions.php. And can I use a fallback? For all situations that I can't predict, when the customizer.php file fails to load?

I know that plugins and theme files should be kept separate but for for internal use I need to do it this way. In my themes header.php file I want to include a php file which just contains html, from my plugin directory. The path is basically /wp-content/plugins/my_plugin/my-html.php I can't seem to figure out the proper code for wordpress to look in the plugins directory, and grab the my-html.php file from within the my_plugin folder. I want to include this …

I want to put CSS inside a PHP file, because with that I can use 'conditional CSS', depending on the value of a customizer control. My idea is to create a new php file, somewhere in my theme directory ./assets/css/header-conditional-styles.css In this file I have created the following code: <?php header("Content-type: text/css; charset: UTF-8"); ?> <style> <?php if ( text == get_theme_mod( 'layout_logo', text ) ) : ?> .theme-header-title { color: green !important; } <?php else : ?> .theme-header-title { …

I am working on a webinar plugin that uses a custom post type to display the webinar pages. Those pages could be register, thank you, countdown, live etc. depending on the visitors registration status and the current webinar status. The plugin uses the template_include action to render content based on the current post status and the visitors status (if they are registered or not). The plugin lets users choose a custom page for one of those webinar pages, like a …

I'm creating a site where every page is really rendered on a single page - the homepage. I'd like to make it so page URLs - like /about-us/ - redirect back to the homepage, but keep the same URL (/). For example, if I visit http://example.com/about-us/, I want to see http://example.com/ (scrolled down to the correct section, thanks to some JS), but with the URL still as http://example.com/about-us/. The template_include action seems like it'd work, but doing this: function home_template($template) …

I am using a query argument detail to check if a custom template should be loaded. This works fine, but I also need to add some variables that can be accessed from within the template. Here I am using add_action('template_include' array($this, 'templateInclude'): public function templateInclude($template) { if (get_query_var('detail', false) !== false) { // Check theme directory first. $newTemplate = locate_template(array('detail.php')); if ($newTemplate != '') return $newTemplate; // Check plugin directory next. $newTemplate = plugin_dir_path(__FILE__) . 'templates/detail.php'; if (file_exists($newTemplate)) { return …

Ive tried the permalink option several times, There is nothing in my htaccess file that would be causing the 404 There's no caching software installed There are no other plugins that im using for redirection or amp The is_single() works perfectly fine but the is_page() does not, i've also tried is_front_page(), is_category(), is_home(), is_page('specific page') but again dont seem …

I just wrote a custom post (suppliers) as a plugin (with meta content) that works great. I've also created a template page (single-suppliers.php) within the same plugin to display the data. I wrote it in such a way that, if someone so desires, they can create their own single-suppliers.php page in their template and get their own look and feel. (I'm using template_include filter to do this.) Example of the template_include filter. // Register a my Membership Template. function my_membership_include_template_function( …

I have created a custom plugin for WP that has an action that includes a template via template_include as shown here: public function __construct( $wp_custom_plugin, $version ) { $this->wp_custom_plugin = $wp_custom_plugin; $this->version = $version; add_action('template_include', array( $this, 'add_my_template' )); } Here is the function that references the template: public function add_my_template($template){ if ( is_page( 'my-unique-page' ) ) { $template = plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'page-my-unique-page.php' ; return $template; } } } Okay, so my expectation here is that i would …
