This data is not escaped at any point during retrieval or output. Additionally, the data is not sanitized or validated when adding it via ""add_settings_error"".

'''Possible Issues''' The $message variable is output wrapped in a 'p' and 'strong' tag. My patch tries to allow common, reasonable tags to be output. I use ""wp_kses_data"", which will only allow tags defined in the $allowedtags variable. Should a plugin or theme author need another element printed out, it will be stripped; however, there still is the potential that it could cause issues for plugins that were previously able to place anything in the $message variable.

While we currently have pretty good support for RTL languages, there is no support for RTL in feeds - all is left up up to the feed reader.
I suggest adding a mechanism to automatically insert these tags/characters for blogs that have text_direction set to RTL - much in the same way RTL css style sheets are loaded for these blogs.
I have attached a patch that modifies the feed templates to insert these tags/characters. Note that there is no checking of blog directionality here - this is just an example of how to enforce RTL in feeds, not how to enforce it conditionally.
This relate to a previous ticket I submitted (#5517), regarding adding an option to set the feed language - which currently just defaults to EN. Certain feed readers know to display RTL text in proper directionality according to feed language (for e.g., feeds that have their feed language set to HE (Hebrew), will get displayed from Right to Left). While setting feed language is not a comprehensive solution, it is a step in the right direction." RanYanivHartstein

Additionally, if the $_SERVER[ 'SERVER_NAME' ] is a sub-domain such as blogs.sitename.com the e-mail is going to send from john.smith@ blogs.sitename.com.

Anybody who has more than 100 files of media in the library can't possibly be happy about how they find their media.
Thanks for considering this. I know it's been a request in the forums for something like 3 years now, and there was a lot of hope in the community that the new media library would accommdate for this.
NextGen Gallery probably comes closest to what I am thinking of, but sometimes you don't want a bloated gallery plugin when all you want to do is categorize your media library files..

The overarching issue is that the UI seems confused when it comes to committing the action you've just taken, for example:
* To scale an image, you commit the action with a button labelled ""Scale"".
* To commit a crop you have to click the crop icon button, which looks like a tool selection button (ala Photoshop) rather than something which commits the change.
* The Save button is disabled most of the time, for reasons which are unclear, but it's not super obviously styled as disabled.
Separately from the problems of committing actions, the ""Apply changes to"" panel is kind of stuck down to the right and it's not clear at which points it's having an effect.
There are no messages back to the user to confirm whether actions have or haven't been taken.

I have verified that in 3.5.1, this filter is never called on empty menus. wp_nav_menu() called with the proper args to select our menu just returns null. we are specifying theme_location in the call.
A workaround/hack is to add a bogus menu item to the DB, via the admin interface, and then delete that bogus menu item in our filter.
I imagine this crept in with the new 3.5 behavior of not emitting HTML for an empty menu.

Future Releases 24101 Argument for separating wp_nav_menu items Menus trunk normal normal Awaiting Review enhancement new close 2013-04-16T09:50:37Z 2013-04-17T06:59:01Z "There is no proper way to add separators between menu items without generating custom walkers for menus.
The use of menu elements with separators are great for page styling where one doesn't need a menu container like in common primary navigation areas, but rather just want a quick list for example in a page footer.
I feel having to use a custom walker for this purpose is more work then need be, for a feature that would make sense to include with core, the below patch introduces the `separator` argument to the mix to address this.
{{{wp_nav_menu( array( 'separator' => ' | ' ) );}}}

I tracked the problem down to the WPLANG option in `http://localhost//wp-admin/options.php` being empty. I tried to update it, but it keeps reverting to blank. So down the line the issue with get_locale() looking for the WPLANG value in the site_options and then defaulting back to en_US because it's not picking it up from the wp-config.php defined WPLANG.
I'm assuming that the defined WPLANG in the wp-config.php does not apply in multisite instances. The plugin is only enabled on the separate blog instance, and I changed the translation in wp-config.php after the install if that has anything to do with it.
Simple filter to force the locale in the plugin for the moment:

If you look at that line:

you will see that it is a simple str_split(). How about if the $string argument is passed by reference ? The problem as it is explained to me is that right now the $string argument is passed by value, e.g. it is copied, so if this is a large string, it is going to take double space when it is used as an argument; instead if it is used as an argument passed by reference it will not take any extra space at all.
What do you think, would this help POMO_Reader::str_split() work with large strings ?" mrasnika

Future Releases 18950 get_post_types() does not return post-types registered with verbose alternatives of the $public argument Post Types 3.2.1 normal major Awaiting Review defect (bug) new close 2011-10-14T16:50:26Z 2012-07-18T10:03:52Z "The $public argument for the '''register_post_type()''' function is supposedly an alternative for setting the arguments for publicly_queriable, show_ui, show_in_nav_menus, and exclude_from_search; It's true that setting the public argument does cause these other values to be set, but if you then use '''get_post_types()''' to query for public post-types, WP does not recognize the equivalence between setting the public option or verbosely setting the others.
== To Reproduce: ==
Enter the following code into a plugin:
{{{
function testing() {
$args => array(
'publicly_queriable' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
'exclude_from_search => false
);
register_post_type('my_custom_post_type', $args);
}
add_action('init', 'testing');
}}}
In a theme file (or somewhere after the init event):
{{{
$pts = get_post_types( array('public'=>true, '_builtin'=>false) );
print_r($pts); // <-- empty!
}}}
== Expected Result ==
I would expect the get_post_types() function to return the '''my_custom_post_type''' post-type because it is using the equivalent of the $public argument.
== Actual Result ==
No post-types are returned.
This represents a problem: other plugins that interact with post-types often rely on the $public argument when using the '''get_post_types()''' function, so any plugin that attempts to verbosely set component attributes will not be recognized. This effectively breaks the API and trainwrecks the interconnectedness of the post-types.

I'd like to request the enhancement where when a theme is looking for a custom template such as single-forum.php to search a plugin folder if it is not found in the child theme or parent theme.
I'm thinking of some type of action where my plugin can say 'add me' to the list of places you are looking for templates.
If my understanding is correct, when WordPress is looking for a template it starts in the child, then the parent theme but ends there.
Why?
If I have a user manually add all of the custom templates needed to their current theme, and they update their theme, they will loose all the templates they manually added.
This means I have no way of giving a user custom theme templates that won't be lost when upgrading, thus requiring them to manually add the templates back in every time they upgrade their theme.
What it really means for me is that there is no real path for me to create custom bbpress templates for users where I don't have to worry about them loosing them.
I can go the route that bbpress currently uses in this situation which is that bbpress uses the themes page.php template and replaces the_content(). The problem is I am stuck with whatever is included in the active themes page.php file.
*for instance twentyten has the title hardcoded in and the call to the sidebar, which I can't remove
I can't go the child theme route, because I have to assume that they are already using a child theme.
Another dev told me today that this issue came up about 2 years ago. I am praying that there was proof of concept code somewhere that I can try to utilize. Does anyone happen to know if concept code exists anywhere?" anointed

If xmlrpc logging is enabled WP logs the password from the request struct in an unencrypted format. Now I understand that not many will open up xmlrpc logging on production blogs, could it be possible that WP just strikes out the password before logging it to the file as it is always the third param so easy to do that, this is because people who might have xmlrpc logging enabled may not change the default log filename and location so anyone can simply run a robot to check for http://blogurl.com/xmlrpc.log and farm passwords (now this may not affect blogs that have WP installed in root since it writes to ../xmlrpc.log, so essentially outside the www access dir, but blogs with WP installed in sub directories will be affected). Don't know how critical this is as users have to manually edit the file to enable xmlrpc logging so it might be a non critical bug." keithdsouza Future Releases 3052 pingback_ping() function displays wrong content in pingback-display in some occurances josephscott XML-RPC 2.0.4 normal normal Future Release defect (bug) reviewing close 2006-08-19T13:41:52Z 2010-04-30T02:29:11Z "If the blog uses a template where the post-meta-data like the trackback-link and such is wrapped in a ""div"" tag but not in a ""p"" tag, the pingback will incorrectly display the content surrounding the meta-data-links, not the content of the pinging post. if there is a ""related posts"" navigation on the page (possible with the [http://www.neato.co.nz/ultimate-tag-warrior/ ultimate-tag-warrior] plugin), or any other links inside the page that link to other posts from the same blog (even the ''next post'', ''previous post'' links), pingbacks will display the content around the first of these links, not the contents around the ""pinging"" link inside the post.
