I am new in wordpress world and i am planning to do a small store website, all the functionalities i need are already there in woocommerce, but there is this small functionality i need which is as below:
in the homepage i need to show 3 different services are served from the company and each service will have a button which will show a popup or redirect the user to another page.
the popup or the new page will ask the user to enter his information along with his mobile number so the company could contact him.
and i have chooses this theme https://themebeez.com/demos/?theme=orchid-store
and here is a picture of where exactly the change will be
So my question is what is the fastest way to do that, is there a plugin to do this for me, or i should make the actual functionality myself and edit the theme code also manually?
Thanks.
In the homepage i need to show 3 different services are served from
the company and each service will have a button which will show a
popup or redirect the user to another page.
Basically 3 buttons that got you to another page. That can be easily done with just editing the template. Look the support documentation to see if your theme can be edited by some page builder (mine uses Composer, etc) and just add the "buttons", if not you need to edit the template manually with some HTML. Nothing to complicated, it just HTML, not PHP or JS.
the popup or the new page will ask the user to enter his information
along with his mobile number so the company could contact him.

Please clarify, popup or a new page? If it is a new page, when you create the 3 buttons on the homepage, just connect that to a new page each (in the Admin Panel, New>>Page). That it is easy as just but the <a href> tag. But also, that's just how I would do it in a short time.
So my question is what is the fastest way to do that, is there a
plugin to do this for me, or i should make the actual functionality

Asking for plugins is offtopic in SO, also, where is going to go that data? In the database? or is going to be sent to some admin email? Please see the How to Ask
But I think there is exist a lost of plugins to help you with that. You just need some custom fields so Have you tried searching for some? I use one to get in contact with clients which may fulfill your requirements

This may seem novice, but I assure its not.
So, I have a site, which displays blog posts by date from new backwards.
Standard stuff. However, what I'm trying to do is create a temporary homepage, lets call it 'yogo'. It displays some ad, or image, with a button link.
What I'd like is a direct link to the actual blog feed which displays in a given theme site's frontpage. Is it just a block?
When Im in Appearance->Reading, I can change homepage to 'yogo' fine. But, say a visitor is on 'yogo', and I want a button they click on to link to what would be the original theme frontpage with blog content, it should technically be 'Home' but is that coded somewhere through the wordpress software like the Reading mentioned above.
Maybe Im missing something, should I shut off permalinks, and dig for it in actual page extension?
Im trying to avoid using Guten. or Elem. to build out a blog page.
Any advice, thanks in advance.
Once add your code in front-page.php or home.php you can use get_the_permalink() function to get the blog page URL and will pass in "a" HTML tag like this -
Your Blog Name
Might be it can help you.
Just a quick update. actually solved this.. In simple terms, it is possible to do this really quickly through the Wpress UI. From your backend, these are the steps in the following order:
(firstly. shout out 2 user 'mirchev' because if u didn't point out templates I would of been way off. actually after about an hour of research after that) So it all takes place in Setting->Reading. From what I've read, Wpress started off as a blog based system anyways, so it was solved a long time back. Basically to start, 1. Create 2 pages, no need to add any content as long as they are 'new' and you make note of the names.
2. Also important -in the template area to the right panel when the new page editor loads up (you don't need to add any texts, images or whatever, including the area on the right just make sure "default template" is selected. 3. Afterwards, these 2 pages are 2 be used in the Setting->reading section.
What you want to do is when you enter this setting of your Wpress site, instead of having your "homepage" radio button be "latest posts" set it to 'static page,' and 4. important - select 1 of the 2 new pages you created as the static page. 5. Now, also important, for the posts page, select the 2nd of the 2 new pages you created. 6. Once this is done, what happens is your website loads the static page, which you may customize however, and then you can go into your Appearance->menus and add the appropriate link to the 2nd of the 2 new pages you created to load the blog, or link to it whichever way you choose. More often than not a menu item should appear if that is the setting you customized.
..And that is all. if fact I was very surprised just how smooth it was.
good luck ! ..--'''~~**
Separation!
I have a website i coded alone with HTML, CSS, JS and JQuery, and I want to add service payment functionality (not e-shop with items, but give clients the ability to submit forms, pay on the website and receive the appropriate services online, so they don't have to come on-site. I want to use WordPress so I can use the woocommerce plugin, cause I'm feeling that's a safer option that coding something myself. How can i get my site and woocommerce working together without having to create the website again using plugins? I know that i can add code blocks, but that means I'll have to keep the title panel on top of the page, and I find that unappealing, and the plugins that exist for removing those aren't a great solution imo. can someone help?
Per my personal opinion, you can do this by simply installing wordpress and then a basic theme. then installing all you need for your woocommerce. then a link that goes to the woocommerce whenever it needs to go there. It is not really a big deal.
Eg a menu that says buy now with a link to woocommerce and predefined amount. so when the user clicks the buy now button, it goes to woocommerce to continue.
so your website will be in 2 parts. a part for information (Your HTML Site) and a place for interactions (Wordpress).
Some websites have similar instances where depending on what you are doing the theme changes.
I however will recommend you go through the pain of doing your whole site on wordpress or simply finding other options to integrate the payments you want to in your current design.
This is for a uniformed design and will make your users/clients feel more secured instead of feeling they are being moved through sites.
I am developing application for shopify, which replace login and register links to another links, creating a custom pages. For example when user click to login link? it is not redirect to login page, it is open a popap with login form. Also my app create custom pages. For example people page, where shows list of customers. And also a want to customize product page by adding a new fave button. In people page for each people shows count faves and last three faves product with images.
So my problems is theme layouts. Because each theme have self layout and css. I want to my app support all themes. How can i do it?
Sorry for my bad english. I just learning... ))
You have two options here, http://docs.shopify.com/api/tutorials/application-proxies and http://docs.shopify.com/api/scripttag.
App proxy sounds like the solution for your separate 'peoples' page.
If you want to assume that all themes have a log in link (which they all should but it's completely customizable so it's possible some don't), then you could always do something like this
$("a[href='/account/login']").click(funciont() {// show modal}); This isn't guaranteed to work in all themes but it probably will in most.
My client wants to create a form on his new WP site that when filled out and submitted will be submitted to his admin post queue to approve and if he approves gets posted on his site in the "blog" (which is actually a bunch of guitar like tabs). The form would be custom and have custom fields. Below is the form, but in the old design before I did a refresh on it.
So, how hard would this be? He does not want it in the WP admin panel which i began to do, but outside in a page like /contribute
The Anonymous Posting plugin appears to do what you're looking for.
You could use the TDO Mini Forms plugin.
If you're looking to create the form using native Wordpress functions, check out wp_insert_post.
Sorry I can't provide the hyperlinks because I'm a new Stack Overflow user. :-/
You can try TDO Mini Forms plugin.The link to the plugin is here.
Click "Temporary Mirror" link for downloading the plugin in the above site.
Anybody knows a good plugin for Wordpress to provide a nice Admin dashboard which also cleans the regular Wordpress update mess. I do not want customer getting distracted with the loaded content in the backend with events, news and updates (messy content updates) in the Backend login? Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if I understand what you're needing. If you're looking for a way to hide a lot of the stuff in the WordPress control panel, Adminimize is a good plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/
There are also plugins to hide the update reminder: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hide-update-reminder/
And to control what appears on the add/edit post page: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cms-post-control/
Using a combination of the above, you can redirect users directly to the post page (skipping the dashboard) when they log in, and limit what they see in the control panel menu to an amazing extent. You can allow them to see widgets, for instance, but not see the themes page.
Hope this helps.

In the latest WordPress versions, >2.7, you can set the admin screen to display only a subset of the Admin widgets.
Just click on Screen Options at the top right of the Admin page to reveal option checkboxes.
For example, you can uncheck "WordPress Development Blog", and "Other WordPress News". You can even format the screen to be just one column and only show the "QuickPress" widget.
