PHP WordPress Plugin - How to display a div on the static homepage only?

This is my first time building a plugin for WordPress. I got the basics down but now I am trying to display a div on the bottom right corner, more like a small pop-up on the bottom right side of the front page only. The PHP code that I've uploaded did not work, it kept crashing my website.

Where is my mistake?

Please explain your answers. Thank you!

Code:

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: My First Plugin
Plugin URL: http://ift.tt/1VC3cMl
Description: An awesome facebook popup plugin that will amaze you!
Author: Martin
Version: 1.0
Author URL: http://ift.tt/1VC3cMl
*/
add_action('admin_menu', 'myfirstplugin_admin_actions');
function myfirstplugin_admin_actions() {
    add_options_page('MyFirstPlugin', 'MyFirstPlugin', 'manage_options', __FILE__, 'myfirstplugin_admin');
}

function myfirstplugin_admin()
{
?>
<style>
    .wrap { 
        width:100%;
        height:auto;
        }

    .popup {
        position:fixed;
        bottom:0;
        right:0;
        width:325px;
        height:200px;
        background-color:#09f;
    }
</style>


    <div class="wrap">

    <h1>Hello World!</h1><br>
    <h4>Hope you like my awesome popup!</h4>

    </div>



<?php if(is_front_page()) {
        <div class="popup">Testing Div Tag On The Bottom Right Corner...</div>
    }
?>
<?php
}
?>

How do I change the name of this sub-directory?

Long time listener, first time caller. Thank you all for your consideration. If you check out my dev site here: http://ift.tt/1GsZ36m

You'll see i'm using a wordpress theme that is built for lawyers/attorneys and not accountants like I am trying to pull off. How can I switch the "attorney" part in the URL path to something more general like "team" or "accountant"?

I'm okay if the back-end part (i.e. the Wordpress Dashboard functions) are labelled "attorney" (as they do now), as long as the user-side doesn't show "attorney".

Any help? I'm not a trained back-end developer, as you may be able to tell. Thanks!

How to make a custom page in Wordpress

Hi I'd like to create a totally custom page in wordpress where I'd add a lot of php code so I would prefer not to create it as a wordpress 'Page', but as a file 'filename.php' in my theme directory. Of course in that page I need to include wp functions and stuff and I plan to do it with require_once("../../../../wp-load.php");.

My problem is, how do I set the header info for a custom page like that (title, meta description etc..) and how do I add a rewrite rule to make it reachable like "website.dom/pagename". Thanks in advance for any answer, and even if you tell me that the best way is to use wordpress default "Add New Page", I'd prefer not to use any script to insert php code in the page, thanks.

Exclude page from a wordpress sitemap

I came across a tutorial on the internet for creating a sitemap in WordPress. It does what I want - it lists all pages and posts on the website however I was wondering if it was possible to exclude a page from the sitemap. In this case I want to exclude the sitemap link. Is it possible to do this? I have included the code for the sitemap below.

<?php
/*
Template Name: Sitemap
*/

get_header(); ?>


<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while( have_posts() ) : the_post();
        the_content();
endwhile; endif; ?>

<h2>Pages</h2>
<ul>
<?php
// Add pages seprated with comma[,] that you'd like to hide to display on sitemap
wp_list_pages(
  array(
    'exclude' => '',
    'title_li' => '',
  )
);
?>
</ul>

<h2>Posts</h2>
<?php
// Add categories seprated with comma (,) you'd like to hide to display on sitemap
$cats = get_categories('exclude=');
foreach ($cats as $cat) {
  echo "<ul>";
  query_posts('posts_per_page=-1&cat='.$cat->cat_ID);
  while(have_posts()) {
    the_post();
    $category = get_the_category();
    // Only display a post link once, even if it's in multiple categories
    if ($category[0]->cat_ID == $cat->cat_ID) {
      echo '<li><a href="'.get_permalink().'">'.get_the_title().'</a></li>';
    }
  }
  echo "</ul>";
}
?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

I am aware that the comments within the code give me some idea as to where to list the pages I want to hide however I am unsure as to how to do this. If anyone can help me it would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks.

Embeded Youtube 360 video doesn't work in iOS Safari

Is there a way to embed a youtube video in a wordpress post that lets the 360 video work?

I made this test video, and it works everywhere I've tested so far except when I view it in iOS Safari.

The video plays, but the 360 environment doesn't function at all.

Thanks for any leads in figuring this out.

WooCommerce: issue setting attributes with wp_set_object_terms

I need to set product's attributes via PHP code. According to other threads on StackOverflow, there's the method wp_set_object_terms. Unfortunately it is not working as it is supposed to do in my case:

For example, there is an attribute named "Hersteller", slug "hersteller". And there is a product, ID 593, with no "hersteller" attribute set.

I tried the following code to fill the attribute:

wp_set_object_terms(593, 'Alpina', 'pa_hersteller' , false);

When I'm attempting to display the attribute on the product page, there is no output, so it seems that the wp_set_object_terms process hasn't been successful. Following code produces an empty output:

$product->get_attribute('hersteller');

Furthermore, the attribute "hersteller" isn't even listed in the attribute list in the admin backend menue.

To debug the problem I've also tried the following code:

$attributes = get_post_meta( 593,  '_product_attributes' ); 
print_r($attributes);

resulting in the following output:

Array ( [0] => Array ( [pa_marken] => Array ( [name] => pa_marken [value] => [position] => 0 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) [pa_kategorien] => Array ( [name] => pa_kategorien [value] => [position] => 1 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) [pa_referenznummer] => Array ( [name] => pa_referenznummer [value] => [position] => 2 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) [pa_herstellergarantie] => Array ( [name] => pa_herstellergarantie [value] => [position] => 3 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) [pa_schlagwoerter] => Array ( [name] => pa_schlagwoerter [value] => [position] => 4 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) [pa_lieferzeit] => Array ( [name] => pa_lieferzeit [value] => [position] => 5 [is_visible] => 1 [is_variation] => 0 [is_taxonomy] => 1 ) ) )

Am I using the wp_set_object_terms method essentially wrong? I don't know what to do anymore now. May anyone here can help me? Thanks!

User meta updating giving no value

So, I have the following to update the user meta:

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ?>
    <?php echo '<input class="input" type="text" id="rhc_phone" name="rhc_phone" placeholder="Phone number" value="' .$current_user -> rh_phone. '"/>' ;?>                          
    <?php update_user_meta( $current_user->ID, 'rh_phone', esc_attr( $_POST['rhc_phone'] ) ); ?>            
<?php }else{ ?>
        <input class="input" type="text" id="rhc_phone" name="rhc_phone" placeholder="Phone number" value=""/>
<?php } ?>

However when I click submit, there is no value (not even the previous value).

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Remove and add actions in Wordpress using functions.php

I have edited some plugin files in wordpress but this is bad form - it stand up to updates. I'd like to make the changes using functions.php but I can't get it to work correctly.

The basics are that I want to remove the following actions:

add_action( 'woocommerce_before_my_account', array( $this, 'my_account_memberships' ) );

add_action( 'woocommerce_before_my_account', __CLASS__ . '::get_my_subscriptions_template' );

And in their place add the actions:

add_action( 'woocommerce_add_subscriptions_to_my_accoun', array( $this, 'my_account_memberships' ) );

add_action( 'woocommerce_add_subscriptions_to_my_account', __CLASS__ . '::get_my_subscriptions_template' );

I have tried adding the following (for both sets) to my functions.php but to no avail...

remove_action ( 'woocommerce_before_my_account', __CLASS__ . '::get_my_subscriptions_template' );

add_action( 'woocommerce_add_subscriptions_to_my_account', __CLASS__ . '::get_my_subscriptions_template' );

What am I doing wrong?

WordPress - Get all of current page's queries information

Okay... so here is what I'm trying to do. Basically all of the components that make up any particular page on a Wordpress site, I need to be able to grab the query that WP is running to grab the data for that particular area of the given page. So, if we have page A, let's say it has a top navigation, main content section, and footer. Each of these three areas have content that is pulled from the database. I need a generic way to say on page X I want to know what queries have been ran to generate all of the content pulled from the database and displayed on the page.

I feel like the key is to properly use http://ift.tt/1xLY68I to get the data I need.

Any thoughts on how I could go about this?

I've tryed that and then my php file doesn't reproduce the php bit.

Troubleshoot Codeigniter CLI stopped

I have been using the CLI interface to send out cron jobs from my codeigniter page. It worked fine until I updated Wordpress yesterday. I do not know how this effected Codeigniter but that is when the trouble started. I also installed cURL at about the same time. I am not sure if that could have made a difference.

SYMPTOMS: None of my codeigniter CLI scripts work. I have two scripts that send out email reminders, and another that synchronizes my database and none function.

ERRORS: I had some errors come up when I tried to run my scripts such as: Use of undefined constant DIR - assumed 'DIR'

This was never a problem before. But for now I change that to dirname(FILE) and that seemed to help. At least that error stopped.

Next another error notice appeared regarding code in my scripts that I was not getting before: "Can't use method return value in write context in . . ."

This error was in reference to this line of code:

if (!empty($this->get_available_hours($date, $provider_id))) {

I modified this to

$availabehours=$this->get_available_hours($date, $provider_id);
if (!empty($availabehours)) {

And the error stopped. But the script usually sends out email regarding availability and no email is sent.

Now I have no errors. I run the scripts and I get no results. If I purposefully mess with the code and do things wrong, I get the appropriate error messages. So, at some level it is reading the file.

I tried just running a simple "hello world file" as discribed here http://ift.tt/Y5erWB And nothing was returned.

I tried a simple email script that would send out an email without accessing my database and it did not send anything to me.

It appeares to me like something has caused my code to be interpreted in an older version of php. So I looked at the version currently running: PHP 5.2.17 (cli) (built: Feb 23 2012 10:42:34) Copyright (c) 1997-2010 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies

This looks up to date.

MY QUESTION: What tests can I run to find out what is blocking things with my CLI? Any tips would be appreciated.

Display Excerpts of Posts in Wordpress Blog

I have been searching for the answer to my problem and I continually come up with replacing

<?php the_content(); ?>

with

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

in the index.php file. However, the theme we are using does not contain this line. Anyone have any insight? Here is the code in our index.php file:

    <?php $t =& peTheme(); ?>
<?php $content =& $t->content; ?>
<?php $meta =& $content->meta(); ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>

<section class="section-blog section-index" id="<?php $content->slug(); ?>">

    <div class="row">
        <div class="large-12 columns text-center">

        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="row blog-main">

        <div class="large-9 columns blog-left">

            <?php $t->content->loop(); ?>

        </div>

        <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    </div>

</section>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Wordpress, add post to custom taxonomy's category

I am trying to add a post to a category under taxonomy cate. The code I am using is:

$user = get_user_by( 'email', $_POST['user'] );
$id = array(
    'post_title'    => $_POST['title'],
    'post_content'  => $_POST['content'],
    'post_date'     => date('Y-m-d H:i:s'),
    'post_author'   => $user->ID,
    'taxonomy' => ('cate'),
    'post_type'     => 'ad',
    'post_category' => array(425),
    'post_status'   => 'publish',
); 
 $user_id = wp_insert_post($id);
if ( ! is_wp_error( $user_id ) ) {
   $odgovor["success"] = 1;

}

The post is added but it's added under category 'uncategorized" and not under desired category ID. This system works properly when custom post type is not used. (In this case taxonomy 'cate')

Any ideas?
