I am currently developing a theme and i am having issues when it comes to wp_enqueue. This is what i got but it isn't working.
function theme_name_styles() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'style-name',get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/dropdown.css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_name_styles' );
secondly i am trying to tell if the toolbar is active on the frontend of wordpress or not and using conditions to display something if it is not active.
wp_enqueue_script is used to enqueue script , use wp_enqueue_style instead
other thing is its better to register script or style first before using
wp_register_script // to register script
wp_register_style // To register style
then enqueue using wp_enqueue_script wp_enqueue_style // learn more about it on codex
Try this :
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_plugin_styles' );
function register_plugin_styles() {
wp_register_style( 'style-name', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/dropdown.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'style-name' );
}
More info : http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_register_style
For the toolbar, maybe you can find something here: http://digwp.com/2011/04/admin-bar-tricks/
There are specific functions to enqueue scripts and styles in wordpress. wp_enqueue_script is used to enqueue scripts only and wp_enque_style is used to enqueue stylesheets. These enqueued files will be attached at the point where you called the wordpress function wp_head. Note that these functions check for MIME type so that if you trying to enqueue a script using the wp_enqueue_style then it'll assume your stylesheet as a script and vice versa. You can see the type and explanation of the error if you use a debugger tool. The developers tool in google chrome is quite awsome. You can use this.
There is a function is_admin_bar_showing which can tell explicitly whether the admin bar is showing in the front end or not. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_admin_bar_showing

I want to create a WordPress Plugin where I want to add some css, and upon activation, those css will be in effect and be viewing in the website. Upon deactivation, the css will also be out of effect.
Any how I can do that? Or any documentation I can take help from?
You can follow Plugin Handbook for creating a plugin https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/.
create a CSS file in plugin directory then upon plugin activation hook you can enqueue the CSS file using action 'wp_enqueue_style'.
You can add this to your main file to load your css file:
function add_my_css() {
$plugin_url = plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ );
wp_enqueue_style( 'style', $plugin_url . "/css/plugin-style.css");
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_my_css' );
Then create your plugin-style.css file and write your css.
Hope this helps
I am building my own wordpress theme and I have such a problem. Media library doesn't work, I can't add any image to the page. I am using the latest version of wordpress.
Files available on github https://github.com/krysba/themes-wordpress
When I turn on the standard wordpress theme, the library works :(
I am asking for help in solving this problem.
If you have not tried, the first thing that i'll tring it's enable debug mode on Wordpress from wp-config.php and check if some alerts or errors can help.
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
I think that you must try to comment all function.php and debugging it row by row.
At the first check i've found a wrong use of the function add_theme_support and in the enqeueing files.
For example the right way to user add_theme_support is on the after_setup_theme action:
function my_setup_theme(){
add_theme_support('post-formats',array('gallery','link','image','quote','status','video','audio'));
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_setup_theme' );
Also the right way to enqueing scripts or styles is that:
function add_theme_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'style', get_stylesheet_uri() );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_theme_scripts' );
See it on this page: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/including-css-javascript/
On wordpress, using GeneratePress free template, I'm trying to push my custom script after all others.
The big problem is that all the scripts of a plugin (Visual Portfolio) are always loaded at the very end, after my scripts.
I tried to put a very high $priority parameter in the add_action() functions but it doesn't work.
function register_scripts_and_styles() {
wp_enqueue_script('custom-js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom-js.js', null, true);
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_scripts_and_styles', 99999 );
Do you have any idea how to fix this problem?
Thank you very much.
Here's idea, js and css files in WP use different technique to figure out in what order js\css files should be loaded.
here's function
wp_enqueue_script('custom-js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom-js.js', array('js-handle-of-some-dependency','js-handle-of-some-other-dependency'), true);
Each script has it's handle, it's first argument to this function, in your case it's custom-js.
Based on digging into plugin's code it's main js has handle visual-portfolio
So you can just enqueue your script with setting it's handle as dependency.
And final solution will be:
function register_scripts_and_styles() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'custom-js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom-js.js', array( 'jquery', 'visual-portfolio' ), '1', true );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'register_scripts_and_styles' );
I've also added jquery as dependency as I guess you are using jQuery in your js code, you can remove it if not.
I've also set version to '1' - it's a query string version which will be applied to your JS code so when you do update and move code live you can force user's browsers to load a fresh one just changing version here.
And see last argument true, it denotes that your script will be injected in footer.
If your code relies not only on main.js of this plugin you might need to add more dependencies as this plugin enqueues bunch of scripts, see whole list of them in /wp-content/plugins/visual-portfolio/classes/class-assets.php from line 350, at the end of register_scripts method of class defined in this file. So you really can put exactly all script's handles on which your custom js code relies and WP will figure out right order of linking those files to page for you.
Happy codding :)
I've enqueued a style sheet using
wp_enqueue_style( 'home-custom-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .
'/css/style.css');
in my child theme
then when I tried to modify it, I've realised that wordpress gave it an automatic version, which now I can't change.
I have tried modifying the enqueue code adding a version,
wp_enqueue_style( 'home-custom-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .
'/css/style.css' , array(), '30140222');
also tried dequeuing it and enqueuing it again, and deleting the file and readding it in the folder but nothing is working.
except null.
For now I made a hard refresh (bypassing my cache) pressing Ctrl + F5 in the browser, cause I'm on the local host, but still need an answer to use it on the server.
heads-up the following applies to scripts too, just replace style with script and you're good to go
The problem is that you're trying to modify an already registered style. See, when you call wp_enqueue_style(), the style is registered and enqueued at the same time(vs calling wp_register_style() and then wp_enqueue_style() which I recommend).
However, if a style has already been registered, when you try to enqueue it the extra parameters are not used, they're just ignored.
What you need to do is the following( make sure to fill in the correct parameters in the wp_register_style() below):
wp_deregister_style( 'my-style' );
wp_register_style( 'my-style', ... );
wp_enqueue_style( 'my-style' );
This first deregisters the still you want to modify and then registers it again with the modified parameters. This will work with styles that are used as a dependency or have dependencies of their own, because dependencies are resolved at the time the style is being loaded on the page and not when it's registered/enqueued.
For what you're trying to achieve though, I would personally just register whatever scripts and styles I want to override in the child theme before the parent theme does it. That way you won't have to deregisters and register them. Here's an example(part of it is the sample parent theme's code):
function parent_theme_enqueue_scripts(){
wp_enqueue_style( 'example-style', get_bloginfo( 'template_directory' ) . '/css/example.css', array(), 'v1.0.0' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'parent_theme_enqueue_scripts', 10 );
function child_theme_enqueue_scripts(){
wp_register_style( 'example-style', get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) . '/css/example.css', array(),'v1.2.0' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_theme_enqueue_scripts', 5 );
The important thing to notice here is the priority on child_theme_enqueue_scripts - it's lower than that of parent_theme_enqueue_scripts. Also note that we're not directly enqueue-ing the style, but instead we're just registering it. That's in order to not mess up the loading order of styles(in case the parent theme enqueues multiple styles but doesn't use dependencies to do that).
Just add this function in function.php
function wpa() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'home-custom-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/css/style.css' , array(), '30140222' );
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wpa');
You should try to search your themes & plugins folders for functions that modify your enqueued styles and scripts.
I was looking for lines containing style_loader_src or ver= and discovered a plugin called "Child Theme Configuratior" that was the culprit.
Turned that plugin off and everything started to work as expected.
Hi I'm trying to get WP Featherlight setup as the default lightbox, right now Visual Composer is using prettyPhoto. So I need to disable it, so that WP Featherlight will overwrite it.
I asked wpbakery and I got this response.
Hello, you can actually overwrite prettyphoto by adding prettyPhoto() in your functions.php and call another lightbox.
And from the plug-in author I got this:
Once prettyPhoto has been disabled, you shouldn't need to do anything
else to lightbox images on the site.
So it's pretty clear what I need to do. Disable prettyPhoto. But I don't know how to do that. Can I add a simple line to my child theme's functions.php? Or?
Any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks.
Place the following code in your theme's function file.
function remove_vc_prettyphoto(){
wp_dequeue_script( 'prettyphoto' );
wp_deregister_script( 'prettyphoto' );
wp_dequeue_style( 'prettyphoto' );
wp_deregister_style( 'prettyphoto' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_vc_prettyphoto', 9999 );
I have tested this on my installation and it works flawlessly.
What it does is dequeues and deregisters the javascript and stylesheets that Visual Composer enqueues and registers throughout the plugin's PHP files for the various template elements and shortcodes that use the prettyPhoto lightbox.
The '9999' parameter enforces that the dequeuing/deregistering happens well after any enqueuing or registering took place earlier on in the loading of the plugin. Any number will do, but the higher the number the better.
You have to enqueue a custom javascript in your child theme where you override the following function:
function vc_prettyPhoto() {
}
in this way you disable prettyPhoto script initialization made by Visual Composer.
You can use code bellow to disable that javascript lib. Put that into your functions.php of theme
wp_dequeue_script( 'prettyphoto' );
wp_dequeue_style( 'prettyphoto' );
Also other page buider you can use is King Composer, which is faster VC
https://wordpress.org/plugins/kingcomposer/
Not sure if you solved the problem, but I have a solution (not very elegant, but it works).
I did buy ePix theme for a photographer and noticed that Masonry Media Grid from Visual Composer isn't fully responsive. So my soulution was to edit 3 files from wp-content/assets/js/dist. Those files are:
vc_grid.min.js
page_editable.min.js
js_composer_front.min.js
Just remove window.vc_prettyPhoto() or vc_prettyPhoto() from wherever they appear.
After that I installed Lightbox by dFactor, choose swipebox and used as selector prettyPhoto. Also I did force lightbox on link images. Now the lightbox is fully-responsive.
Hopefully this will help somebody :)
You can disable Pretty Photo. Use the below code in theme's function file, thats it.
function remove_scripts(){
wp_dequeue_script('prettyphoto' );
wp_deregister_script('prettyphoto' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_scripts', 100 );
It will work.
I have tested on my own issue to deactivate some sliders from the Visual Composer and it works. An example how to deactivate the whole Flexslider, Nivoslider and Owl Carousel sliders in the Visual Composer plugin. Add this code into theme functions.php file:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'deregister_vc_modules', 99 );
function deregister_vc_modules() {
wp_deregister_style( 'flexslider' );
wp_deregister_script( 'flexslider' );
wp_deregister_style( 'nivo-slider-css' );
wp_deregister_style( 'nivo-slider-theme' );
wp_deregister_script( 'nivo-slider' );
wp_deregister_style( 'owl-carousel' );
wp_deregister_script( 'owl-carousel' );
}
