What are the files needed to include in wordpress so that all the defined terms and function works in user created folder inside the wordpress theme folder?
Note: I have created a folder inside wp theme folder and I want to use wp_insert_post()function.
You should Include the wp-load.php in external file to access the Wordpress functions.
Note: There may be better solution for you instead of creating external file inside theme.

I want to create custom folders without using any plugins. I go to "wp-content/uploads" and create a new folder inside, but it doesn't appear online. How do I make it appear? Thanks.
it is possible to create a custom folder in the wp-uploads folder but however you need a plugin to make them appear on your website.
You can create your custom folder using your hosting file manager or FTP Client, you can also upload your desired files into this folder using the same method.
To make all your files appear on your WordPress media library, you need to install the "Add from server" plugin. Once you have registered all your file to your media library db, you can uninstall the plugin without any effect.
I am working on a new project on WordPress.
I am developing a new website for a client based on their actual site (developed by an other team).
So, I decided to create a new WordPress theme and to use the existing content (client's request).
However, this supposes to reuse the custom plugins, in order to not re upload the pictures and the articles by hand.
I would like to include the custom plugins into the new theme. However, the plugins folder is outside the theme folder. So I was wondering if you have an idea on how I could transfer the code of a custom plugin into the new theme.
Thank you in advance.
What custom plugins are being used to handle pictures and articles? Uploaded files should go to /wp-content/uploads and all data is stored in the database. Removing the plugins might make the data inaccessible, but it shouldn't disappear.
Why are you moving functions from plugins to a theme? Or are these plugins inside of the /wp-content/themes/ folder? The way you handle the two cases is very different.
If you need to copy certain functions into a theme, you can move them into a functions.php file (or a functions.php file that calls to other files in that directory) in a child theme. The WordPress Codex has much better documentation on child themes than I could ever outline here. Placing the functions into your main theme is a permanent change and is not recommended when you're dealing with functions that are better-suited to plugins.
If you're copying plugins from one theme into another, you might want to look at plugin dependencies using TGM Plugin Activation.
I have wordpress installed on the root of my website (say example.com/), but there is a folder of the website that i want to directly build in php/html not controlled by wordpress - basically I want it to be its own separate entity, but with the url being example.com/folder/, so it sits under wordpress in the url hierarchy, but is completely independant... Is that possible? I have done some research but cant find a solution or any reference to this.
Thanks very much for your help!
Just make the folder in the root directory of the wordpress install. Any files inside of that folder that does not declare the wp-load.php file will not be controlled by wordpress.
I have a folder called "form" that is seperate from the our WordPress directory.
public_html/wordpress
public_html/form
How can the directory "form" use the wordpress functions (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference) from the "wordpress" folder? Do I have to Include some file?
Thanks!
You have to include wp-blog-header.php. But it's better to use wordpress plugin to achieve it.
How can i add external html,css file in wordpress genesis framawork? Firstly i want to add in my localhost.is it possible?I wish genesis expert will give this answer.
If you are asking how to incorporate other files to a Wordpress site, you'll need FTP access to your hosting server. Then you'll want to upload the desired files to directory, and then link or call out to those files however you would generally call a file.
But I don't know what sort of access you have to the theme's .php files in Genesis Framework, because it appears to be a paid theme.
But if you can alter the .php files, if you're adding a new .css or .js file that all the pages need access to, add the call to those files in your header.php file.
