In my plugin, I use the wordpress core plupload srcipt:
function plug_enqueue_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'plupload-all' ); //wordpress core
}
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'plug_enqueue_scripts' );
Is there a way to know if the script was successfully loaded? a callback fct? A return value?
If the script fail to load, I want to include my own plupload (js and css).
thanks
You can use wp_script_is() to check the status of a script:
if( false === wp_script_is( 'plupload-all', 'enqueued' ) ){
// script not enqueued, do stuff
}
If you want to check if the script has been actually printed use done instead of enqueued for the second param. See all accepted values in the Codex.

I have a plugin, it has many css theme files. Of course I do not want to load all of them, only one. It depends on config. For post I use has_shortcode function, but how todo the same thing with template that use do_shortcode function.
Note:
I found a good solution, I use
$this->loader->add_action( 'init', $plugin_public, 'register_scripts');
$this->loader->add_action( 'wp_footer', $plugin_public, 'print_scripts');
Inside shortcode handle I set a global var to true
global $imagelink_plugin_shortcode_used;
$imagelink_plugin_shortcode_used = true;
The function print_scripts add my scripts if my global var is true
public function print_scripts() {
global $imagelink_plugin_shortcode_used;
if ( ! $imagelink_plugin_shortcode_used )
return;
wp_print_scripts($this->plugin_name . '-imagelinks');
}
Thanks for answers.
Instead of using has_shortcode function, what you can do is register and enqueue those files when that shortcode is rendered.
First, register your css files with wp_register_script. Make sure to hook this into wp_enqueue_scripts
Now, inside your shortcode function, enqueue the files.
wp_enqueue_style('theme-css')
Using this way you can use the shortcode anywhere you want and the script is loaded only when shortcode is present on the page whether it is on content or template.
I'm trying to do a plugin that will change the behavior of a theme.
In the theme file I have a get_template_part('libs/templates/user_menu');
I want to make my plugin to "force" the get_template_part return another slug file (a path to a file in plugin folder).
So far this is my code inside the plugin:
function wpse21352_template_part_cb( $slug )
{
if(slug == 'user_menu') {
return WP_PLUGIN_URL.'/'.$slug;
} else {
return $slug;
}
}
do_action( "get_template_part_user_menu", 'user_menu' );
add_action( 'wpse21352_template_part_cb', 'get_template_part_user_menu', 10, 1 );
First of all, get_template_part does not return anything. It loads a file from your theme based on the parameters you pass to it. The function does not support filtering, which means you can not actually overwrite what is outputted by get_template_part.
The only thing the action get_template_part_[slug] allows you to do is output something before the theme file is loaded. For example, using
function myplugin_before_login( $slug, $name ) {
echo 'Example';
}
add_action( 'get_template_part_login', 'myplugin_before_login', 10, 2 );
would output "Example" before the loading the theme file when calling get_template_part( 'login' );.
Actions and filters
In general, however, I believe you might misunderstand how actions and filters work. The WordPress Codex offers extensive information on their use and usage.
I want my plugin to register a script only in a certain page.
For example, inside my plugin file I want to write something like this:
if (is_page()) {
$pageid_current = get_the_ID();
$page_slug = get_post($pageid_current)->post_name;
if ($page_slug == 'articles'){
wp_register_script('myscript', '/someurl/main.js');
}
}
But I get the error:
is_page was called incorrectly. Conditional query tags do not work
before the query is run. Before then, they always return false. Please
see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was
added in version 3.1.)
How can I, inside of a plugin, register a script in a certain page?
is_page() only work within template files.
And to use it within plugin files, you need to use it with the combination of template_redirect action hook.
This action hook executes just before WordPress determines which template page to load.
So following snippet would work:
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'plugin_is_page' );
function plugin_is_page() {
if ( is_page( 'articles' ) ) {
wp_register_script( 'my-js-handler', '/someurl/main.js', [], '1.0.0', true );
}
}
You could use is_page() after template redirect so you need to add in the hook like this :
add_action('template_redirect','your_function');
function your_function(){
if ( is_page('test') ) {
// do you thing.
}
}
You must register your script as if you want it to work everywhere.
You can de-register it after the job is done, like this:
function deregister_my_script() {
if (!is_page('page-d-exemple') ) {
wp_deregister_script( 'custom-script-1' );
}
}
add_action('wp_print_scripts', 'deregister_my_script', 100 );
I have been looking for an answer for this in SOF but didn't find a clear answer
I have a plugin that forces pages to be shown when certain conditions are met. but when i try to include css files for styling i get no response .
I tried to include the file using normal html and this was a failure
then tried the wp_register_style and wp_enqueue_style as such:
function rw_add_style(){
$rw_path = plugins_url('kawaleb/style.css');
wp_register_style('testili',plugins_url('kawaleb/style.css'));
wp_enqueue_style( 'testili' );
}
add_action ('wp_enqueue_scripts','rw_add_style');
wp_enqueue_style( 'testili' );
}
I placed this code on the page that should be shown when the conditions are met
What I don't know here is how to procede after enqueing !
do I need to use html to include the stylesheet file ( and then what is the use of enqueing ?) or does it do that by itself (and then what I am missing here ? )
In the doc of codex they dont go further than telling you to register the style then enqueue it !!!
Thank you all :)
You don't need to register the style, you can just enqueue it. Also, you mentioned that you've put the code in the file where you'd like it to display, you should put it in the index file of your plugin, so in /your-plugin/index.php or whatever the main file is called, add this code:
function rw_add_style() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'testili', plugins_url( 'kawaleb/style.css' ) );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'rw_add_style' );
If you need it only on a certain page then you should add your conditional within the function, so you could do this for example:
function rw_add_style() {
global $post;
if ( $post->post_name == 'post_name' ) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'testili', plugins_url( 'kawaleb/style.css' ) );
}
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'rw_add_style' );
And you can work out what the post name is for the page you need to enqueue it for by temporarily adding the following code to the page template:
global $post;
echo $post->post_name;
To be clear, you don't need to add any html <link> to include the CSS as you're right, there would be no point in enqueuing it then. Just add the enqueue as I described above in the main index file of your plugin and it will be automatically included in the wp_head() in your header and output just before the </head>.
I hope this helps. Good luck. =)
I am writing a plugin that will take advantage of other plugin's features (think about a plugin for a plugin).
My file lies in /plugins/new-plugin/new-plugin.php
and I need to make a
include(/plugins/OLD_plugin/old-plugin.php)
so I can use a couple of functions from the old-plugin.php file.
What is the correct way to do this? I could maybe make the functions in old-plugin.php available globally, but I don't want to change the old-plugin.php file.
I've already tried several ways to do this, but none worked. The new-plugin will only show some info in an options page, not viewable for the general public and does not interact with any public page or post in my site.
I've already tried $_SERVER, WP_PLUGIN_DIR, WP_CONTENT_DIR, the absolute server path, relative paths and even some black magic, but nothing seems to work good.
With some of this solutions the plugin's options page shows good but the blog's pages do not render. With other solutions the inverse happens, and with some other solutions nothing even render, be it admin pages or blog's pages, all with errors regarding to file not found.
The new-plugin.php is as simple as
<?php
/*
WP Common Headers
*/
global $wpdb;
if ( ! defined( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR' ) )
define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', ABSPATH . 'wp-content' );
if ( ! defined( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR' ) )
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/plugins' );
include '/server-absolute-path/public_html/gameblogs/wp-content/plugins/old-plugin/old-plugin.php';
add_action('admin_menu', 'new_plugin_menu');
function new_plugin_menu() {
$page_title = 'New Plugin';
$menu_title = 'New Plugin';
$function = 'new_plugin_admin_page';
$menu_slug = 'new_plugin';
add_menu_page($page_title, $menu_title, 0, __FILE__, $function);
}
function new_plugin_admin_page() {
$result = old_plugin_link_data(" WHERE link_destination NOT LIKE '/%' AND link_destination NOT LIKE '%gameblogs%'");
$total = count($result);
old_plugin_list_links($result, $total, FALSE, FALSE);
*/
}
?>
thanks for any ideas!
check the old plugin files and see if there are any do_actions or apply_filters in it. If there are then you can hook into the old plugin script with your new plugin using add_action and apply_filters and execute other things you want to do.
see http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_action
and http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/apply_filters
For example (very basic example):
If in old plugin you find a:
do_action('some_type_of_reference);`
In your new plugin you can hook into it by doing:
`add_action('some_type_of_reference', 'name_of_my_function');
function name_of_my_function() {
//executed code here
}`
If in old plugin you find a:
apply_filters('some_type_of_reference', $variable);
Then in your new plugin you can hook into the filter by doing:
apply_filter('some_type_of_reference', 'my_function');
function my_function( $variable ) {
//act on the variable from the filter.
return $variable;
}
Have you looked at the plugins_url function? I haven't had an in-depth read through your code, but it might help.
The plugins_url template tag retrieves the url to the plugins directory or to a specific file within that directory. You can hardcode the plugin slug in $path or pass FILE as a second argument to get the correct folder name.
Hope this helps!
