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 doing this in a plugin. I have the following in an attempt to only enqueue a script when my template file archive-my_custom_post_type.php is used.
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue');
function my_enqueue($hook) {
if(is_page_template('archive-my_custom_post_type')){
wp_enqueue_script( 'ajax-scripts', plugins_url( '/js/myjquery.js', __FILE__ ), array('jquery') );
}
}
It is not working. It does not load the jquery file on ANY front-end pages, let alone when archive-my_custom_post_type.php is rendered. However, when I remove that if conditional, it loads on ALL my front-end pages.
Question: How can I do a conditional enqueue of a script whenever my custom post type archive template is being used?
You need to use the complete file name, including .php. So in your case you will need to use:
is_page_template('archive-my_custom_post_type.php')
Also, if your template is under a subdirectory you will need to specify that as well.
Ref: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_page_template/#more-information
If you're using is_page_template function, you should also use as parameter the full path (including subdirectories) for the template. For example, if your template is located in your-theme-directory/templates/template-file.php then you should use it like this:
if(is_page_template('templates/template-file.php')){
wp_enqueue_script( 'ajax-scripts', plugins_url( '/js/myjquery.js', __FILE__ ), array('jquery') );
}
My stylesheet is enqueued if i use
<link rel = "stylesheet" type = "text/css" href = "<?php echo get_template_directory_uri();?>/style.css">
but it's not included when i use
function include_css(){
wp_enqueue_style('main_css',get_stylesheet_uri());
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','include_css');
You may correct the code like this :
function include_css(){
wp_enqueue_style('main_css',get_template_directory_uri().'/style.css');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','include_css');
The issue is that you are trying to enqueue the css file without specifying it's complete url the code you use i.e
> wp_enqueue_style('main_css',get_stylesheet_uri());
This means that you are adding the style.css file which is always on the root directory but still you are giving name as main_css first make sure which css you want to add then someone will able to properly answer your question and the css you are trying to add is in which directory.
Please refer to this link get_stylesheet_uri
To enqueue a stylesheet use this in functions.php
1.we need to register our stylesheet.
2.we should enqueue it.
3.Hook to an action
4.call the function where you want to enqueue it.
function include_css()
{
wp_register_style('main_css',get_template_directory_uri().'/style.css');
wp_enqueue_style('main_css');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','include_css');
call,
<?php wp_head();?>
in the place you want to enqueue it.(mostly in header.)
Please add this code in theme's functions.php
function enqueue_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_style('style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array());
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_scripts' );
I had errors when uploading banners and photos, I know I must put this code in the child theme to repair it, but I'm using the handy store theme for my store and I have not created any child theme.
Can someone explain me where I should place the code to fix the error?
my code:
function mgt_dequeue_stylesandscripts() {
if ( class_exists( 'woocommerce' ) ) {
wp_dequeue_style( 'select2' );
wp_deregister_style( 'select2' );
wp_dequeue_script( 'select2');
wp_deregister_script('select2');
} }
Should I put the code in the file 'function' of the theme 'handy store'? or one of dokan?
The best is to put your function in functions.php, but it will never work without a triggered action.
With your code you will need to add something like this :
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', mgt_dequeue_stylesandscripts, 99);
The last parameter (99) is the priority, the action will trigger later with higher number.
I am building a full design into WordPress for the first time and I am trying to load in stylesheets and script files but all I seem to be getting is the text output of the location.
What I have is below..
wp_enqueue_style('reset', bloginfo('template_url') . '/reset.css');
wp_enqueue_style('style', bloginfo('stylesheet_url'), array('reset'));
wp_enqueue_style('rhino', bloginfo('template_url') . '/rhinoslider-1.05.css', array('reset','style'));
Do I need to put this inside the link tags or something? I thought it would do it all itself; as what's the point loading it that way if it doesn't do it itself? I know it makes sure the same file isn't included twice or something, but if you have to include the link tags yourself and then WP decides not to include the file then you are left with blank link tags!?
Lastly, should I set these up beforehand so I can just call them via their handles? If so, where? functions.php?
Edit: I also tried putting the below in my themes functions.php file but got the same results.
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'mmw_new_theme_setup' );
function mmw_new_theme_setup() {
/* Add theme support for post formats. */
add_theme_support( 'post-formats' );
/* Add theme support for post thumbnails. */
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );
/* Add theme support for automatic feed links. */
add_theme_support( 'automatic-feed-links' );
/* Add theme support for menus. */
add_theme_support( 'menus' );
/* Load style files on the 'wp_enqueue_scripts' action hook. */
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mmw_new_load_styles' );
}
function mmw_new_load_styles() {
$foo = bloginfo('template_url') . '/reset.css';
$bar = bloginfo('template_url') . '/rhinoslider-1.05.css';
wp_enqueue_style('reset', $foo);
wp_enqueue_style('style', bloginfo('stylesheet_url'), array('reset'));
wp_enqueue_style('rhino', $bar, array('reset','style'));
}
When storing values in a variable via PHP use:
get_bloginfo()
So your new function would now look like:
function mmw_new_load_styles() {
$foo = get_bloginfo('template_url') . '/reset.css';
$bar = get_bloginfo('template_url') . '/rhinoslider-1.05.css';
wp_enqueue_style('reset', $foo);
wp_enqueue_style('style', bloginfo('stylesheet_url'), array('reset'));
wp_enqueue_style('rhino', $bar, array('reset','style'));
}
And be more semantic! It makes code for beginners easier to look at. ($foo could be $resetCssUrl)
I was having similar issues.
The register / enqueue scripts are so that you can globally assign your functions to load in the correct order. You can call them from the page that your working in but it is considered better practice do it this way.
My template has a functions.php but its nealry empty! It sepreates the scripts into 7 subchapters, theme-options, theme-functions, themes-js, etc. Here is my themes.js.php file but this could quite easily placed in your file inside your wp-content/themes/functions.php My themes-js.php file
I'm developing a WordPress widget following Dave Clements tutorial. It works well. Now I want to add some styles to it. I want the styles to be in an extra css file which will be loaded during runtime. I'm calling this function
function myprefix_add_my_stylesheet() {
wp_register_style( 'myprefix-style', plugins_url('mystyle.css', __FILE__) );
wp_enqueue_style( 'myprefix-style' );
}
right before "// Widget output //" using this statement.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'myprefix_add_my_stylesheet' );
But nothing seems to happen. What am I doing wrong?
Your wp_enqueue_scripts action do not work because you call it too late, in widget() function (widget output). It's too late because Wordpress already print/send head of page.
For example, you can add this action on widget construct function.
