Currently, by default, the following columns appear in the list of pages in the WordPress admin panel:
Title
Author
Comments
Date
and because I have AIO SEO installed:
SEO Title
SEO Description
SEO Keywords
Is there a way to have WordPress also display the URL to the page (at least the part of the URL that is created when the page itself is created)?
The page url is actually already there by default, it's just hiding. When you hover over a page title, several links appear below the title -- edit, quick edit, trash, view. View is the hyperlink to the page, which you can click to view the page, or right click and copy the link address to use elsewhere.
Otherwise, if you are using a custom/child theme, you could add the following to your functions.php file:
add_filter('manage_page_posts_columns', 'my_custom_column', 10);
add_action('manage_page_posts_custom_column', 'add_my_custom_column', 10, 2);
function my_custom_column($defaults) {
$defaults['url'] = 'URL';
return $defaults;
}
function add_my_custom_column($column_name, $post_id) {
if ($column_name == 'url') {
echo get_permalink( $post_id );
}
}
Note: This just creates a text url to your page.
Also note, you do not want to edit your functions.php file directly if you are using a theme you did not create, as it will be overwritten when you update. If you want to add this to an existing theme, I'd suggest looking into child themes.
This is helpful. I would only improve the output slightly by removing the site url and just showing the page. Takes up less space and less to weed through visually.
if ($column_name == 'url') {
$siteURL=get_site_url($post_id);
$link= get_permalink( $post_id );
echo str_replace($siteURL,"",$link);
}

I have developed my own wordpress theme, and learning all kinds of programming stuff, but my priority is the content, not the programming knownledge. I need to know how to remove archive date listing from wordpress?
Question 1: The google search results displayed like this: virmodrosti.com/2017/05/
I don't want any kind of date archive option, how do you disable that?
I also don't use any kind of plugin, and always like to do it on my own.
Question 2: I don't know why older entries doesn't work anymore
virmodrosti.com/zdravje/ this page works fine
virmodrosti.com/zdravje/page/2/ it redirects to 404 error page
I only choose option in wordpress to hide that annoying /category/ with dash . inside editor at permanlinks, Category base. Maybe somehow these stuff is kinda fighting with each other and doesn't work properly.
Thank you.
This is code from Digital Nomad theme I maintain:
function digitalnomad_remove_date_archives() {
//if we are on date archive page
if ( is_date() ) {
// theme sets alternatine archive page with table like list of all posts
$archive_page = get_option( 'digitalnomad_archive_page' );
if ( $archive_page ) {
// redirs to alternatine archive page if configured (good for SEO)
wp_redirect( esc_url( get_page_link( $archive_page ) ) );
die();
} else {
// otherwise error 404 is displayed
global $wp_query;
$wp_query->set_404();
}
}
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'digitalnomad_remove_date_archives' );
Use the smart Archive Page Remover wordpress plugin
or visit your theme's functions.php file
then insert this code
/* Register template redirect action callback */
add_action('template_redirect','makes_remove_wp_archives');
/* Remove archive*/
function makes_remove_wp_archives(){
// if we are on category or tag or date or author archive
if(is_category()|| is_tag()||is_author()){
global $wp_query;
$wp_query->set_404();
}
}
Since the change to WP 4.1 they use the add_theme_support( 'title-tag' ); to allow wordpress to handle the title tag. Most of the time this is fine but I came across an instance where I need to edit it.
I've created a simple page and by using an api I'm dynamically changing the content on it. But when it comes to SEO they all have the same page title. Example: http://vitaferm.com/product/?id=372
Is there a way for me to add my product titles to the page title with the way WP is configured or is the solution to remove the theme support in the functions.php and then hard code it into the header.php.
I just wanted to double check that I wasn't missing something with how it is currently configured before I remove the theme support. It will always be a pain in the ass every time we have an upgrade.
I found the solution here https://www.developersq.com/change-page-post-title-wordpress-4-4/
add_filter('document_title_parts', 'dq_override_post_title', 10);
function dq_override_post_title($title){
// change title for singular blog post
if( is_singular( 'post' ) ){
// change title parts here
$title['title'] = 'EXAMPLE';
$title['page'] = '2'; // optional
$title['tagline'] = 'Home Of Genesis Themes'; // optional
$title['site'] = 'DevelopersQ'; //optional
}
return $title;
}
I have an article with several pages in my wordpress blog. if for example i have the following link in my blog :
http://example.com/heartbreaking-photos
any idea how can i change the link of the second page from
http://example.com/heartbreaking-photos/2
to http://example.com/heartbreaking-photos/CUSTOM-STRING
CUSTOM-STRING aimed to be a custom title inside the page
To achieve this, you will need to do 2 things:
Disable the default WordPress canonical redirect - this is necessary, because WordPress will always redirect to the /2/ page when it encounters the page parameter in the URL or query args.
Add a custom rewrite rule to direct your custom title to the second page of your page - this is essentially necessary to allow the link format that you want.
In terms of code, this is what you need (this is a working solution, I've just tested it locally):
// Removes the canonical redirection
remove_filter( 'template_redirect', 'redirect_canonical' );
// Add custom rewrite rules
add_action( 'init', 'my_add_custom_rewrite_rules' );
function my_add_custom_rewrite_rules() {
// Slug of the target page
$page_slug = 'heartbreaking-photos';
// Page number to replace
$page_num = 2;
// Title you wish to replace the page number with
$title = 'custom-string';
// Add the custom rewrite rule
add_rewrite_rule(
'^' . $page_slug . '/' . $title . '/?$',
'index.php?pagename=' . $page_slug . '&page=' . $page_num, 'top'
);
}
There are three things you might want to configure or change here:
$page_slug - this is the slug of your page, in your case this is heartbreaking-photos
$page_num - the number of your pagination page, in your case this is 2
$title - the title you wish to use instead of your page number 2.
Feel free to alter the code as you wish, or copy it to cover more additional cases, similar to this one.
EDIT
Important: Once you use the code, go to Settings > Permalinks and click the "Save Changes" button. This will rebuild your rewrite rules, and is necessary for the solution to work.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
You can try this codex. Pass the arg and you will get page id, page title and use those
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_pages
Or you can call page title by page id
$pagetitle= get_post_field( 'post_title', $page_id );
Ok, so basically you don't want to display the navigation link under the page (use css or modify the post template in the child theme) and add your custom link. If I understand it well:
Remove navigation links (depends on your theme, but basically):
.nav-links { display: none; }
You can add the custom link through function + custom fileds:
create a custom field, for example "my-url" in your post, see codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields
add to your functions.php (in the child theme or in a custom site plugin):
function my_page_add_to_content( $content ) {
if ( ! empty(get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'my-url', true ) ) {
$content .= 'URL TEXT HERE'
}
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_page_add_to_content' );
I'm wondering if this is possible in wordpress, I would like a user to edit text for a post/page on another site, or instance of the main wordpress site and then update the text which would then change on the main site. I want the user to see just plain text and no wordpress admin editing areas.
External Page: Create an HTML form and send the data to Your WordPress page.
Pseudo-Code (do not forget to add security!):
In WordPress functions.php:
add_action('init','check_external_submission');
function check_external_submission() {
if(isset($_POST["ext"]) && $_POST["ext"] != "") {
wp_insert_post(array("post_content" => $_POST["content"], "post_title" => $_POST["title"]);
die;
}
}
Check wp_insert_post function here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_insert_post
I have an external page that reads a RSS feed for a tag. I can't change anything on the external page, so the challenge is to change the RSS feed on my side to match the requirements.
On the external page the 3 latest posts for a tag are shown, and at the end of the section (note: not after each post but after all 3 posts) there is a "View all" link. This link receives its value from the element in the feed, which is by default set to my blog homepage, e.g. http://myblog.com). For this specific tag the link should be http://myblog.com/tag/myspecialtag.
The requirement is that the "View all" link links to the tag page instead of the homepage.
My idea was to add a condition to the element to change the URL for this specific category. I tried to change the feed template as recommended here: Customizing feeds, but for some reason it doesn't change the template at all. The code I tried is the following:
remove_all_actions( 'do_feed_rss2' );
add_action( 'do_feed_rss2', 'change_feed_rss2', 10, 1 );
function change_feed_rss2( $for_comments ) {
$rss_template = get_template_directory() . '/feeds/feed-custom_rss2.php';
if( file_exists( $rss_template ) )
load_template( $rss_template );
else
do_feed_rss2( $for_comments ); // Call default function
}
Of course I created the custom feed template and stored it in the feeds directory in my theme.
As this didn't work I tried looking into filters/hooks but I couldn't find anything helpful regarding my issue. Any ideas on how to best solve this issue?
I came up with the following solution:
I created a new custom page template custom_rss-feed.php and copied the code from wp-includes/feed-rss.php into it. I assigned this template to a new page. Additionally I added a filter to get_bloginfo_rss like the following:
function alter_bloginfo_rss($value, $key) {
if ( $key === "url" &&
is_page_template("custom_rss-feed.php")
) {
return $value . "/my/custom/url";
}
return $value;
}
add_filter("get_bloginfo_rss", "alter_bloginfo_rss", 10, 2);
