Canonical redirect functionality assumes the requested URL would be the same as the generated term URL and since they are different tries to redirect.
'''Solutions'''
The easiest one is to assume that if we had come to the right category page without any get variables, we don't need the logic for redirecting to the canonical category page. This is valid statement, because that logic relies only on removing get arguments.
The only disadvantage with that solution is that doesn't solve the more general problem of discrepancies between generated and requested URLs. But for now it will do a good job.",nbachiyski

Those links were hidden in the html-code and were links to rss-feeds of attachments. (e.g. ?attachment_id=1647&feed=rss2)
When i try to open the link, it returns a 301 error and if the new url is called, anoter 301 error is shown. After two or three times, the original url is shown again by a 301 error message.
I installed two clean installations on different servers, which show the behaviour either. If i use the link ""?attachment_id=1647&feed=rss"" the correct feed is loaded. (using rss instead of rss2 which is provided by the template)
It seems that the error is caused by the function get_post_comments_feed_link(...) in ""wp-include/link-template.php used wp-include/canonical.php.
When i add another line to the function to return a link with ""attachment_id="" and not ""p="" or ""page_id"", the comment feed is loaded without errors.
But the fact, that rss feeds do not cause an error and rss2 feeds create a loop makes me think, that another module may be defect and my workaround is not a solution.

Attached patch introduces a cache that stores comment ID => older comment count (in short, the result of the function's query) on a per-post basis.
When any comment's status is changed, the entire cache for that comment's parent post is deleted as it will likely affect other comments (for example, deleting a comment can change the page of newer comments).

seems like WordPress is using the ""0000-00-00 00:00:00"" value as magic value for date values, which aren't set instead of NULL.
This is working fine for any PHP x86 builds, because the magic value is also an invalid date.
But PHP x64 builds support this value. It is no longer invalid. It is now a valid date! This will result in problems, because some functions are expecting that parsing this date will return false, but now on x64 systems they won't get an invalid date, when they are expecting one.
So the problem is, that WordPress is using a valid date as magic value for an invalid date aka default value.
Fixing this issue will require a SQL schema change and to update all the code, checking for ""0000-00-00 00:00:00""...

They show up unfiltered in the WXR export file. I see this both in post_content and in strings that were serialized into a post_meta field. The CR characters are in the WXR file, unfiltered.
Then, Wordpress import loses these CR characters. They are simply erased. It may be because SimpleXMLParser can't or won't open the XML file in binary mode, so line ending translation can & does happen. That's just a theory, but if it's true then this behavior might *not* happen on all platforms or with all PHP versions. (I'm seeing this on OS X 10.6.8, PHP 5.4.4.)
In the worse case -- mine -- the munged string is a small component of a complex datastructure that is serialized in a postmeta record. In this case, the entire meta_value field is deleted on import, because the data won't unserialize, because its length has changed.
It seems to me that WP Export should escape any character that might be threatened in transit. I'm no XML lawyer, but some sources claim that unescaped CR characters are invalid XML.

* store a carriage return in a post.
* export it to a WXR file.
* examine the WXR file for the raw carriage return (^M).

When an email with multibyte characters (like Swedish é, å, etc.) in the subject is sent from Wordpress (using wp_mail), the subject of the email at the reciever end looks like this: =?UTF-8?Q?New_site_name_Site:_J=C3=A9t_inqsfzxb_p=C3=A5_?= =?UTF-8?Q?=C3=A9?=
'''Reproduce:'''
Create the new blog with a multibyte char in the blog title and then activate it.
For example: go to /wp-content/wp-signup.php and create a new user. After that you will be asked to create a new blog. Create one and put some é and å characters in the blog title. After that you will recieve the first email (which should be ok), asking to activate the account. Activate it, then you will get the second email with the screwed subject.
'''Reason:'''
The reason is phpmailer class which double-encodes the email subject (only when sending mail using php mail() function though). The problem in these lines (wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php, taken from WP 3.2.1):
(lines 657, 663, 671, 677)
$rt = @mail($val, $this->EncodeHeader($this->SecureHeader($this->Subject)), $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($to, $this->EncodeHeader($this->SecureHeader($this->Subject)), $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($val, $this->EncodeHeader($this->SecureHeader($this->Subject)), $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($to, $this->EncodeHeader($this->SecureHeader($this->Subject)), $body, $header);
The subject is first encoded with EncodeHeader function, and after that encoded again by mail() function itself.
'''Fix suggestion:'''
Since mail() function does proper encoding of subject, we don't need to encode it ourselves. So those lines should be replaced by:
$rt = @mail($val, $this->Subject, $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($to, $this->Subject, $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($val, $this->Subject, $body, $header, $params);
$rt = @mail($to, $this->Subject, $body, $header);
I've tried this on my server, and it works well.
'''Conclusion:'''
Hope it will be fixed and included in the release soon. Although, i've found the good enough temporarily solution overloading wp_mail() with a plugin, but still would be nice to see the solution in the wordpress core.",jetpackpony

I don't imagine anyone still feels that having `update_metadata()` call `stripslashes_deep()` is still the Right Thing to do, but I understand why removing it is basically impossible for backward compatibility reasons.
That said, !WordPress as a platform does not currently provide a way for this data to be stored accurately as a meta value:
{{{
$data = array(

Telling people they have to do something like this:

WordPress will see the UTF-8 validator kicking because most of the `htmlspecialchars()` calls don't use the `$encoding` parameter. This will cause major problems for sites that have a `DB_CHARSET` other than `utf8`.
[http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.php.devel/71783 Posting 58859 to php-internals] by Rasmus gives a clear example of the problem. Here is a link to [http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.php.devel/71777 view the whole thread], starting with posting 58853).
Creating two centralized functions is an approach for resolving this problem. This route is simpler and easier to maintain than adding the parameters to each `htmlspecialchars()` call throughout the code base.
1. `wp_hsc_db()` for safely displaying database results. Uses `DB_CHARSET` to calculate the appropriate `$encoding` parameter. MySQL's character set names are not equivalent to the values PHP is looking for in the `$encoding` parameter. Please see the `hsc_db()` method in the [http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/login-security-solution/trunk/login-security-solution.php Login Security Solution plugin] for a mapping of the valid options.
2. `wp_hsc_utf8()` for safely displaying strings known to be saved as UTF-8, such as error messages written in core. Uses `UTF-8` as the `$encoding` parameter.
Some calls in core use the `$flags` parameter, so these new functions will need the parameter too. The default should be `ENT_COMPAT`, which works under PHP 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.
It may be suggested that WP use `htmlspecialchar()`'s auto-detection option (by passing an empty string to the `$encoding` parameter). This is not advisable because it can produce inconsistent behavior. Even the PHP manual says this route is not recommended.",convissor

Here's what happens:
1) Upload an image with file extension '.jpeg' (note the 'e') and insert it into a post, with a blank 'Link URL'.
2) Now that the image is in the body of the post, edit the image's Link URL. (hover-over the image in the post and click the small icon on the upper-left that appears). If you click the 'File URL' button to auto-full the Link URL box, it will autofill the correct image address, but with a '.jpg' extension!
This lead to 404 errors, a lightbox plugin that appeared broken, and had me thinking it was an .htaccess issue from my hosting company....
NOTE: it autofills with the correct file extension when clicking the 'File URL' button is clicked upon initially inserting the image, however it fails when using the secondary menu that is available after inserting the image.

The importer strips out double '''\n'''s and replaces with a single '''\n'''. This causes paragraphs to lose their distinction upon import.
It does this because the '''$line''' variable was created by '''$line = $this->fgets($handle)''' (line 339). Then '''$line = trim($line)''' (line 340) strips out several characters, including '''\n'''.

'''The setup'''
Each web server that hosts HTML/PHP, static files, and uploads will be replicated via rsync from time to time and sitting behind a load balancer. Rsync will run every 5min to 1 hour, and to mitigate the 404s in the uploads, I put together an nginx setup that automatically tries a different upstream server in its configuration when it encounters 404s. This allows any web server to go down at any time, and the system to run as if nothing happened. This also gives me freedom for rsyncing periodically rather than immediately and avoids 404s completely.
'''The problem'''
Now, the bug (note, I'm using Windows Live Writer which automatically names uploads image.png, but I could see this potentially happen without WLW too since WP seems to automatically name files on disk in case of collisions).
Let's say we have server A and B. The site name is foo.com. Let's also say B is out of date by an hour and a bunch of files got uploaded to A that aren't on B. Say, A has image.png and image2.png and B has only image.png.
Now, the issue is that if the load balancer directs the new post uploader (the new post contains a single image) to server B, the file that it will create on disk will be named image2.png rather than image3.png. So now B will have a file that's different from A's but is named the same way.
The main problem is that the file name is given based on what's available on the disk rather than according to the database. It's easy for this race condition (between rsyncs) to destroy the integrity of the files. Furthermore, and I've experienced this first hand), if you delete the attachment from the Wordpress UI, it could actually delete the wrong file from the wrong server as a result.
Seeing this, I can't continue with my scaling plan until file names are assigned by the database rather than the file system or I figure out how to mitigate that. I don't want to force all writers to use only server A for uploads using its direct IP, as I want HA (high availability).

1. Go to the Edit Media screen for an image.
2. Click & Drag to highlight an area of the image.
3. Enter an Aspect ratio of 4:3. '''The image selection changes but the Selection fields are not updated.'''
4. Attempt to change the Aspect ratio to 4:7. '''Input is erased as soon as I type it in.''' This makes no sense at first, but appears to be some kind of boundary feedback?
5. Attempt to change the Aspect ratio to 10:11. '''Input is impossible unless the second field is empty.'''
6. Change the Aspect ratio to 7:8 and then change it to 7.9:8. '''Nothing happens.'''
7. In common graphics vocabulary, ""Selection"" always refers to a pair of rectangular coordinates. '''Using the word ""Selection"" where ""Size"" is what you meant''' to say is confusing.
8. Scale Image is collapsed by default, with no indiciation that it can be expanded except for a slight difference in text color, and the cursor changes on mouse over. This is inconsistent with the Image Crop area, which is '''not collapsible'''.
9. There is '''no way to enter a decimal coefficient''' for the Aspect ratio. Even 1.67:1 doesn't work. Unless the user wants to always use 1:1, 16:9, 8:5, 5:4, or 4:3, the existing Aspect Ratio fields will be useless. The interface would make more sense with a limited set of radio options.
10. '''The original image Aspect Ratio is not displayed.''' If my image has an Aspect of 1.39847, and I want to ""lock it in"" while cropping, there is no obvious way to do it.
11. '''The new image Aspect Ratio is not displayed.''' If I crop by click & drag, or by typing in the Selection fields, there is no way to know the resulting Aspect Ratio without pulling out a calculator.
12. The original image '''dimensions are not displayed''', unless the Scale Image area has been expanded. Cropping is just that much more awkward as a result.",miqrogroove

This method work as expected with lots of images from a lot of different sources, but fail on URLs containing spaces.
Let me illustrate this bug with an example.
When trying to upload the image located at
{{{
http://home.nordnet.fr/francois.jankowski/pochette avant thumb.jpg

the result looks like this on the file system: http://twitpic.com/3s0dk7 . As you can see, image file names are clean. But in the Media Manager, here is what you have: http://twitpic.com/3s0e5d . No thumbnails seems to have been created.
Now, trying to fix this, I modified the original URL before calling {{{media_sideload_image()}}} with the following code:
{{{
$img_url = str_replace(' ', '%20', html_entity_decode($img_url));
$new_tag = media_sideload_image($img_url, $post_id);
}}}
With this patch, here is the result on the filesystem: http://twitpic.com/3s0ets . I was surprised by WordPress not sanitizing URLs. Is that normal ?
But the most surprising stuff is in the Media Manager: http://twitpic.com/3s0hup . It looks like thanks to this hack, WordPress somehow succeeded downloading the remote file but messed with filesystem naming. What let me think this ? The Media Manager, get the right image thumbnail dimensions but not the binary payload of the thumbnail (contrary to the case above were no binary nor dimensions are available about the thumbnail).
All of this was tested in WordPress 3.1-RC2.
As for the idea of the patch above, it come from a very old version of my plugin (v0.9) that was based on WordPress 2.3.2. There, I somehow found the root cause of the problem, [http://github.com/kdeldycke/e107-importer/blob/e107-importer-0.9/e107.php#L410 according the comment I wrote 3 years ago]:

get_attachment_link is perfect as I can plugin a single ID and use the graphic wherever. However, the ticket prices change as the event gets closer and the graphic needs to be updated which breaks the theme in production when my client does so as a new ID is generated.
This doesn't make too much sense to me. I've worked with and developed CMSs of all kinds and usually the ID is preserved.
I would at least like the option, perhaps a checkbox, to indicate I want to reupload a new image. I think it's more common that an update on a media item would be to modify the same logical graphic rather than just replacing it with something entirely new.

- Add a user like subscriber.
- Flag that user as spam in /network/users.php

It tries to handle the URL as it as if there were a port appended, but then fails to strip it off. Incidentally the error message here: 'Multisite only works without the port number in the URL.' is untrue, since ports are handled (but for only two particular cases, port 80 and 443).
The attached patch, against Wordpress 3.0.3, fixes both these issues, and allows ports other than 80 and 443 to be used with Wordpress, by just stripping off the trailing port rather than special-casing the two well-known ports, and not incorrectly detecting IPv6 literals as URLs with ports in. It also has the advantage of being much more compact.
It may be worth someone thinking through whether the substitution is strictly correct with reference to the URL standards, but I'm pretty sure that this is an improvement on the current code.

With images that are static Apache sends the file and calculates the Content-Length its self so these images work fine but if you access a file uploaded to WordPress it uses the .htaccess redirect so the image requests are sent via ms-files.php for what ever reason.
The problem is that WordPress decides to calculate its own Content-Length header in the HTTP Response which means that security conscious browsers like Google Chrome freak out when the data they receive is less than they we're told by Apache and they resultantly disable the image.
The Content-Length calculation comes on line 43 of ms-files.php I don't know why its needed because Apache seems to sort it out automatically if you don't send your own header, in fact most of the file seems like an unnessisary load of processing, perhaps it needs reviewing but this is a major issue as it is a growing browser, on a growing platform.

19901,Speeding up Dashboard and Comment moderation SQL load,markjaquith*,Performance,3.3.1,normal,major,Future Release,enhancement,accepted,dev-feedback,2012-01-26T21:32:43Z,2012-04-18T20:36:06Z,"The standard Wordpress function for counting the comments for Admin Bar and Dashboard named wp_count_comments is using a single SQL query with GROUP BY clause. That makes it slow on a large site with hundreds of thousands of comments.
{{{
SELECT comment_approved, COUNT(*) AS num_comments FROM wp_comments GROUP BY comment_approved;
}}}
This takes 0.3 seconds on our site with 400,000 comments. When there are 10 editors logged in, we can see increasing server load.
Our solution is to run 5 faster queries instead:
{{{
SELECT COUNT( comment_ID ) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = 'trash'
SELECT COUNT( comment_ID ) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = 'spam'
SELECT COUNT( comment_ID ) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0'
SELECT COUNT( comment_ID ) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = 'post-trash'
SELECT COUNT( comment_ID ) FROM wp_comments
}}}
Takes 0.042144 on the same site. The last query gets the number of all the comments, then we subtract the previous query totals to get number of approved comments.
On a database of 4 million comments the difference is 1.52 seconds for the original wp_count_comments and 0.01 seconds for our alternative count with 5 queries.
Here is a link to our quick piece of code which hooks to the required filter hook and replaces the original slow function wp_count_comments: http://foliovision.com/downloads/fv_wp_count_comments.php.txt
But this is a hack - it would be much better to fix this in core by replacing the existing slow queries with 5 fast ones and subtraction to get total approved comments.
This speedup can be very important on large sites, as often there are 10 or more writers and moderators working at the same time. What can happen with the existing code is that the slow count comments query can back up MySQL and then writers can no longer save or open posts to edit. They get very, very frustrated and even angry.
This fix will allow Wordpress to scale much larger on relatively modest hardware (no separate MySQL dual quad server).
Thanks for listening.

'''More realistic sandboxing.''' It would be interesting to perhaps kill most of the WP environment while trying to sandbox a plugin on activation, to catch more fatal errors. For example, unset $wp_rewrite, which would prevent add_rewrite_tag() issues (on activation) for plugins incorrectly trying to register rewriting for taxonomies or post types. Of course, most of these plugins are already running on a blog when the auto-upgrade happens. Hence the second item:
'''Check plugins before an auto-upgrade.''' We can do plugin update checks to verify their compatibility (as reported by the author?) with the version they are about to upgrade to. If the plugin is in the repo and is not identified as compatible with that version, then very strongly advise they deactivate it (and consider doing it for them).
'''Check a site after an auto-upgrade.''' Since we only recommend deactivating plugins on auto-upgrade, and I'm not sure we should forcibly do that as part of an auto-upgrade, then let's check the site after an upgrade. Hit wp-load with an HTTP request and look for a header we spit out on the wp_loaded hook. If we don't get a header, then deactivate all plugins and tell the user ""told you so"". We could consider trying to reactivate plugins until one fails as well (also a valid option for the previous suggestion).",nacin

1. The machine is really slow to delete the original theme dir, when the update is moved into the themes dir, an error occurs: ""Could not create directory"". The theme is now gone.
1. If there are any locked files in the outdated theme (e.g. SVN), all the files except the locked one will be deleted. Upgrader bails and you're left with a broken/empty theme.
1. If any of the files are in use, all files inside the theme will be deleted but the file system will throw an error. The updater bails with an empty theme directory.
Steps to duplicate:
1. On a Win hosted install, open the twentyten theme directory
1. Edit stylesheet, change version to 1.0
1. Open screenshot.png in paint
1. In the wp-admin, upgrade the theme
1. Sad times (screenshot attached)

1. Have a backup of original theme if something breaks mid-way

Please forgive me if some details are slightly off as obviously anything running WP.org infrastructure is mostly a black box that no-one outside of Automattic or Audrey has any insight into (and I'm lucky to have found this problem in the first place).
If you take a look at the attached graph, you can see that the plugins repository is growing exponentially by disk usage regardless of what rate commits are coming in (but that has always been growing too, making this worse). I am assuming the repository is using FSFS, though this is actually still a problem if it were using BDB. All SVN repositories suffer from this weakness if used the same way the plugins SVN repo is being used.
The problem is that every SVN commit stores off node IDs of every sibling node of every parent node of all nodes that have changed in that revision. This means that a single commit to `/myplugin/trunk/readme.txt` contains references to all files and directories (and their related revision) in the `/myplugin/trunk` directory, the references to the `branches`, `tags`, and `trunk` nodes in `/myplugin`, and finally references to every directory in the root node (`/`) which means every single plugin in the repository.
Since the root node is related to any changed node in every single commit, and the list of plugins is constantly growing, this means that even though the repository is somewhere around 450GB right now, the actual data in the repo, including the full history, is only about 30GB. You can confirm with a simple dump of the repository. The other 420GB or so is entirely wasted space by SVN overhead.
If nothing is done in the next two years, the SVN repository is expected to double in size to about 900GB, and it’s performance will quickly degrade as the server takes longer to read revisions and the filesystem cache can no longer be used (which I suspect is already the case now). Another four years, and we could be looking at a 2TB Subversion repository with every single commit being required to write about 8MB to disk even if it's a one line change.
I know that any solution to this is going to take years to fully implement mostly because I believe this is going to require plugin SVN URLs to change during a migration at some point most likely. However, at the least, we should be heading up this problem by getting new plugin submissions started in their own repository rather than creating new directories for them in the current plugins SVN repo. This would at least stop the exponential growth of the plugins repository, extending it's lifespan significantly.",bpetty

I analyzed the WordPress source code and found out that the blogger.getUsersBlogs method in the file wp-includes\class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php uses another XMLRPC call to the wp.getUsersBlogs method in case of the multisite.

Requirement for us was to drill down the category relevant posts, and I have implemented the solution using xmlrpc for the .net env using c#.
The trouble is there is no available option to filter using category for the posts.
So I have done following changes, please recommend if we can do any better to avoid the override of the change may be by upgrading the next version with it from WordPress version natively.
Describing the basic nitty-gritty with in :
After doing some cross referencing I was able to figure out adding following code shouldn't harm :
1: With in LLN#1374 function wp_getPosts( $args )
I added the filter option for category as follows on LN#1410
{{{
if ( isset( $filter['category'] ) )
$query['category'] = $filter['category'];
}}}
I have done few tests and seems to be working fine, just its expects the categoryId to drill the category relevant posts for me.
I wonder if you could integrate this from WordPress.
2: Our second requirement was to get out of the box wpautop for the content, so we don't need to worry about adding <p><p/> tags.
hence the another change of code I had integrated with in the file is as following :
with in protected function _prepare_post( $post, $fields ) on LN#624 , I had added the wpautop call to surrounds to post_content as in follows :
{{{

1) When someone using mouse hovers over a page/post row in main Pages/Posts screen - the 'quick links' appear. However these links will never appear when a user is tabbing around the screens - perhaps a blind user with screen reader or someone who is unable to use a mouse.
Please can the 'quick links' panel be opened when someone tabs to the page/post title and stay open so that they can then tab into the links provided.
2) Using Quick Edit.
When the Quick Edit panel is open the input fields in there are all nicely accessible except for the date and time grouping. These input fields have a tabindex value set (unlike the surrounding input fields) which removes them far from the natural sensible tab order within this panel. Suggest the tabindex values are removed.
Also, none of the date and time input fields have labels so their meaning is unclear - certainly to blind users but also potentially to people with cognitive impairments too. Please can this be rectified.

Accessibility Issues:
* The most serious problem with accessibility in the Add Media functionality is that it is not possible to select any of the pre-uploaded media without using a mouse. This will effectively preclude any keyboard only or screen reader users from using this functionality.
* When the Add Media panel first opens it is unclear where keyboard focus sits. This could be disconcerting for some users.
* Reverse tabbing from the panel transfers focus back into the main page whilst leaving the panel open. Recommend that focus is kept cycling within the panel until the user either explicitly closes the Add Media panel or inserts some images.
* It is possible to tab through the text links on the panel(s), but the Upload Files link does not show focus as obviously as other links as there is no outline.
* When tabbing forwards from the Upload Files link there is a tab stop that is not at all visible. Believe this to be Media Library but it's not clear.
* The Insert into Page link can receive focus even when inactive.

How to reproduce, in Appearance > Header, using Twenty Eleven:
1. Select one of the default header images
2. Check the Show header text with your image option
3. Enter #111 for Text Color
4. Click Save Changes
At this point everything looks fine, but here comes the trouble:
5. Enter #222 for Text Color and hit Enter
You'll notice that #222 hasn't been set as the Text Color, instead your chosen header image (in step 1) has been removed, as if the Remove Header Image button was clicked.
6. Enter #333 for Text Color and hit Enter
You'll notice that #333 hasn't been set as the Text Color, instead it's been set to #000 which is Twenty Eleven's default, as if the Restore Original Header Text button was clicked.
When both Remove Header Image and Restore Original Header Text buttons are not present, the Return key submits the form using Save Changes, as expected. It's not limited to Text Color, but any other element that can submit the form using the Enter key.
I've been facing the exact same problem when doing an options panel for a theme with multiple actions as submit buttons, still haven't found a good solution. Marked as 3.3.2 but I believe it's been around earlier.

To reproduce: in FF, go to Preferences, Content, Advanced Fonts, select 24 for minimum size. Look at the admin; eek! (In comparison, zooming to that size looks very pretty, but requires horizontal scrolling).
Gmail does it decently, so I thought it was worth asking, but I know that there may be technical reasons that we can't make it happen. Would just like to know what those are if so, so I can explain to users who ask about it. If we *can* make it happen, that would be sweet. ",jane

This second field has neither a {{{label}}} element nor a {{{title}}} attribute associated to it.[[BR]]
The first field has a label, the one in the {{{th}}} element: ""New Password"", correctly associated to the input via its for attribute (e.g. {{{for=""pass1""}}} when the input field has an {{{id=""pass1""}}}).
Any form field should have an associated label (or at least a title) per WCAG 2.0, see the Technique ''[http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG-TECHS/H44.html H44: Using label elements to associate text labels with form controls]''. This helps screenreader and other assistive technologies users to understand without a doubt what is the role of each form field, improving the accessibility of the admin and thus ATAG and WCAG compliance of WordPress).
A simple solution would be to use the existing hint ""Type your new password again."" (right after the second password field) as its associated label.[[BR]]
{{{span.description}}} thus becomes:
{{{
<label class=""description""><?php _e(""Type your new password again.""); ?></label>
}}}
This new label isn't styled in italic anymore (because the applied selector is ''span.description'') so, in {{{wp-admin/css/wp-admin.dev.css}}}, one should also add {{{label.description}}} to the existing selector rule and to the one at the end of the same CSS file that removes italic for zh_CN localization.

I'm using Dragon Naturally Speaking with IE9 on Windows 7 - a typical setup as Dragon works best with IE.
Within the Edit Post screen I can use Dragon to action the Add Media link successfully. The command in Dragon for such an action is ""Click Add Media"". This works, but then I run into the following problem:
* With the exception of Set Featured Image, none of the other links on the panel appear to be directly accessible with Dragon.
* If I select Set Featured Image I can't action any of the other links.
Dragon users can use voice commands to replicate pressing the tab key. The experience then mirrors that outlined in #23560 - but of course this cannot be used to select the images or other files.
It is possible for Dragon users to interact with screens using mouse commands but it is an incredibly laborious and time consuming process - used only as a last resort.
If one of the images is selected, the information panel for that images opens to the right. Unfortunately none of the input fields (for title, alt, etc) are directly available to Dragon. Ironically, the Insert Into Post button can be accessed directly with a voice command.
Some investigation needs to be done as to why most of the links and input fields cannot be directly accessed by Dragon when the panel is opened. This is a parallel with the situation on the Theme Customizer panel.
It is interesting that the Set Featured Image link and the Insert Into Post button '''can''' be directly accessed. What is different about them?

I used NVDA 2012.2.1 with IE9 and FF16.0.2 on Windows 7.
'''IE9'''
* On initially clicking Add Media link in Edit Post page the focus appears to initially be transferred into the edit content textarea within the main page. There is no audible notification that the panel has opened.
* Further tabbing shows that the focus has not been transferred into the panel - so this would be a showstopper for most users.
If you continue tabbing you eventually do come to the panel in the tab order at the bottom of the main page maybe...
* It is possible to tab round the text links in the panel. However actioning the Insert Media or Create Gallery links does not apparently do anything - there is no audible feedback that the contents of the next panel have changed. Suggest that when one of these links is actioned that focus is transferred into the relevant panel - to the heading would be a good place.
* The 'images' select does not have an associated label so it's purpose would not be clear to all users.
* The search box does not have an associated label so screen reader users in IE9 receive no feedback as to the purpose of this text box.
* There is no Go or Search button available to trigger the action for these two input fields - both of which change the content of the panel below. For accessibility reasons the user should be in control of triggering the filtering.
* As mentioned in the other ticket #23560 the main accessibility problem here is that it is not possible to select any of the previous uploaded media.
'''Firefox'''
* When the Add Media panel opens it is not clear where focus sits. But after this first link the focus is transferred into the Add Media panel.
* The close link does not announce itself when tabbing forwards, but it does when reverse tabbing.
* See IE9 section re actioning Insert Media, Create Gallery links.
* AS IE9 re label for media type select box. NVDA does announce Search box label in FF.
* As IE9 re lack of Go or Search button for these input fields.
* As IE9 it is not possible to tab to any of the previously uploaded images/files.

For improved accessibility it is far better to have the comment_reply_link include the commenter name.

This problem has been pointed out by a lot of people and it surfaced after the new Gmail design came out. The problems it generated are very similar and as you may have used it, there are no labels for the email recipients field and the subject field.
The issue is not very big as such but it does generate ambiguity in some cases. The solution to this would be to have the label as an overlay on the input, which can slide/move to a new position on focus. And placeholder text can be used as help text.

This simply assumes that no other outside source has registered any sort of setting error other than the current options page. TwentyEleven does this, and so if any other source has registered any notices via these functions, the ""Settings saved."" message will not be output because the first bit of logic will fail. I don't think this assumption can (nor should) be warranted, so there needs to be another way to handle this so that themes like TwentyEleven who only call `settings_errors` at the top of their options page don't get unknowingly hijacked by other sources.
I always suggest registering your own errors at the end of the sanitization callback for your setting, and then output those specific errors within settings_errors to avoid any internal conflicts like this.
Just looking for some ways to approach this. :-)

22022,Can’t properly add pages of type edit.php?post_type=xxx as submenu items to arbitrary parent menus,,Administration,3.0,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,defect (bug),new,reporter-feedback,2012-09-27T20:22:43Z,2013-01-11T11:22:48Z,"The following code illustrates the problem.
{{{
add_menu_page('My Pages', 'My Pages', 'edit_posts', 'parentslug', array(class, func));
add_submenu_page('parentslug', 'Settings', 'Settings', 'edit_posts', 'mysettings', array(class, func));
add_submenu_page('parentslug', 'Custom Post Type', 'Custom Post Type', 'edit_posts', 'edit.php?post_type=xxx');
}}}
When you click on the first submenu item, the menu stays open, displaying the submenu items as it should. When you click on the item for the custom post type, the parent menu is closed and submenu pages are not displayed.
The root of the problem is how $parent_page is handled for pages of type edit.php?post_type=xxx. In get_admin_page_parent(), $parent_file is always set to $submenu[$parent], which may cause the submenu slug to be different from $parent_file. But in _wp_menu_output, if the submenu slug and parent slug are not equal, the 'wp-has-current-submenu wp-menu-open' classes do not get added which means the menu gets displayed as being closed.
Since there are no actions called between get_admin_parent_page() and the output of the menu, the only workaround I can see is some ugly JS that fixes up the classes.
It seems like the least intrusive fix would be to just move the call to apply_filters(""parent_file) in menu-header.php to after the call to get_admin_page_parent() so that $parent_file can truly be overridden. This also seems inline with the intent of the filter.

18402,Confused page ordering if filter drops parent pages,nacin,Administration,3.2.1,normal,normal,3.6,defect (bug),reviewing,dev-feedback,2011-08-14T15:34:07Z,2013-05-05T05:01:40Z,"= Problem =
In Wordpress's page management section, the page ordering is confused if a page filter drops a page parent.
Originally, I experienced this with the User Access Manager Plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-access-manager/
This plugin only shows allowed pages to the user.
= Example =
{{{
Page A
- Page A1
-- Page A1.1
-- Page A1.2
}}}
By dropping page A, the ordering becomes for example:
{{{
-- Page A1.1: Parent Page is Page A1
-- Page A1.2: Parent Page is Page A1
- Page A1: Parent Page is A
}}}
But should become:
{{{
Page A1: Parent Page is A
-- Page A1.1
-- Page A1.2
}}}
= Solution =
The confusion results from the function `_display_rows_hierarchical`
in `wp-admin/includes/class-wp-posts-list-table.php` which only adds pages to $top_level_pages whose parent is 0 – the wrong assumption here.
By adding pages to $top_level_pages whose parent is either 0 or doesn't exist in $pages we get a usable order:
So I added to the above-mentioned file:
{{{
#!php
function is_parent_in_pages( $parent, $pages ) {
foreach ( $pages as $page ) {
if ( $page->ID == $parent ) return true;
}
return false;
}
}}}
and changed `_display_rows_hierarchical`
from
{{{
#!php
if ( 0 == $page->post_parent )
$top_level_pages[] = $page;
else
$children_pages[ $page->post_parent ][] = $page;
}}}
to
{{{
#!php
if ( 0 == $page->post_parent || !$this->is_parent_in_pages( $page->post_parent, $pages ))
$top_level_pages[] = $page;
else
$children_pages[ $page->post_parent ][] = $page;
}}}
And finally - in order to remove the leading dash of $top_level_pages - I removed
the $level++ in function `single_row` (same file) below ""`case 'title':`""
Small change, better user experience :)

- Now check a category in the ""most used"" tab. Go to the ""all categories"" tab and you will find that the same category is now checked (as expected). Now uncheck it from the ""all categories"" tab. Go to ""most used"" and it is still checked there. The sync only works one way ( ""most used"" -> ""all categories"" ).
The first issue is because `wp_popular_terms_checklist()` assumes that you're using it in the context of a particular post, and sets checkedness based on whether the `$post` global has that term. If the `$post` global is empty (as when editing links), nothing is checked. I don't think we should be using `wp_popular_terms_checklist()` as it's context is for individual posts.
The second issue is because the IDs on the most used elements are wrong compared to what the Javascript is looking for.

This happens often when I'm browsing, and on a server with a relatively slow AJAX round trip, it can happen quite commonly.
Problem: If you open Quick Edit, then the ajax results should noop. There might be other actions, but this one in particular does not lead to another page (which obviously would kill the ajax).
The reverse is also an issue. You can search, paginate, or sort when Quick Edit is open, and you lose your edit. This might be bad when quick editing a comment, as you could be losing actual content. Searching and paginating might be explicit actions, but it's not difficult to accidentally click a th and trigger a sort, especially if the first row's quick edit (or bulk edit) is open.
I'm not sure what to do here, other than a JS popup for any time a Quick/Bulk Edit is open, asking you if you want to lose your changes.
So again, two things:
- Kill the AJAX action if Quick Edit is opened. I would consider this lower priority.
- 'Lose your changes' confirmation for quick edit and bulk edit before an AJAX action. (We can probably fire the AJAX action and trigger the alert simultaneously, but delay processing the results until the confirm() is true.)",nacin

21989,update_option() calls sanitize_option() twice when option does not exist,,Administration,,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,defect (bug),new,dev-feedback,2012-09-25T05:04:34Z,2012-09-25T05:54:32Z,"
I just spent several hours tracking down an issue when using the Settings API where `sanitize_option()` is called twice which is unnecessary execution especially if sanitization includes calling an external API for username/password authorization ''(this was how another developer set it up for a plugin I was debugging.)''
What happens is that a call to `update_option()` will call `sanitize_option()` and then if the option wasn't previously in the options table `update_option()` will delegate to `add_option()` which calls `santize_option()` a second time. This would normally be easy to workaround by first calling `get_option()` and testing for `false` and calling `add_option()` instead of `update_option()` if `false`, but not when the Settings API chooses how to call it.
I've looked at the problem and can envision several different ways to solve it such but don't know which the core developers would choose ''(or if they'd choose yet another option I haven't envisioned)'' so I didn't submit a patch:
- Adding a 3rd parameter `$mode` to `sanitize_option()` that identifies the mode ''('add', 'edit', default = 'unknown')'' and thus allow the hook to ignore one of the options ''(this would be more backward compatible but would put the onus on the developer to know to do this)'',
- Adding a 5th parameter `$bypass_sanitize` to `add_option()` defaulted to `false` that is only passed as `true` in `update_option()` allowing `update_option()` to disable the call to `sanitize_option()` found in `add_option()` ''(this would be less backward compatible and hacky, but seemless to the developer)''
- Adding a 3rd parameter `$bypass_sanitize` to `update_option()` defaulted to `false` that is only passed as `true` from `/wp-admin/options.php` allowing `update_option()` to bypass the call to `sanitize_option()` if an `add_option()` will happen ''(this would be less backward compatible and hacky, but seemless to the developer)''
- Have `/wp-admin/options.php` test for no pre-existing option and then call `add_option()` or `update_option()`, respectively ''(this would be seemless to the developer but less backward compatible and not hacky, and it wouldn't handle the general case.)''

23684,wp-admin CSS style conflicts with jQuery-UI breaking form elements in Firefox,,Administration,3.5,normal,normal,3.6,defect (bug),new,has-patch,2013-03-04T07:10:22Z,2013-05-10T02:09:17Z,"A default CSS style in the wordpress admin interface, which is loaded through load-styles.php either under the name wp-admin or buttons (both of which are inaccessible for removal as they are not listed in the WP_Styles object) interferes with jQuery-ui in such a way that any radio buttons (and possibly other form elements) that are styled with jQuery-ui in the admin interface (such as with a plugin) cause the browser window to jump to the top of the page when clicked. This behavious occurs with the current Wordpress version 3.5.1 using the latest Firefox 19.0 on linux (haven't tested in windows yet). After spending a few hours tracking down the offending code I narrowed it down to this statement in the admin CSS:
{{{
.screen-reader-text,.screen-reader-text span,.ui-helper-hidden-accessible {
position:absolute;
left:-1000em;
top:-1000em;
height:1px;
width:1px;
overflow:hidden;
}
}}}
The .ui-helper-hidden-accessible class is what is causing the conflict, specifically the ""top:-1000em;"" statement; due to the negative positioning values when a button is clicked the browser tries to focus on something styled with the ui-helper-hidden-accessible class, which is of course way outside the limits of the browser window. In order to correct the error I had to override it with the following in another stylesheet declared after load-styles.php:
{{{
.screen-reader-text,.screen-reader-text span,.ui-helper-hidden-accessible {
position:fixed;
left:1em;
top:1em;
height:1px;
width:1px;
overflow:hidden;
display:none;
}
}}}
We should not have to override default styles like this when making plugins, especially when we are using a js library (jQuery-ui) that is included with wordpress. Either the ui-helper-hidden-accessible class needs to be renamed or the negative values removed and replaced with a display:none; statement to fix this bug.",Colin84

These wrappers were actually introduced in WP3.6, the WP3.5 version was without them.
'''Explanation of what I do:'''
* `edit_form_after_title` hook - I output UL list of tabbed interface here and open the first tab content DIV
* `edit_form_after_editor` hook - I close the first tab content DIV and output the other tab content DIVs
The first content DIV is always a visual editor. But as you can see, when I open the DIV in one hook and closing it in another one, this was working fine in WP3.5 as no wrapper was added to those hooks. Once there is a wrapper, it obviously messes up the HTML and closes divs prematurely. This is causing issues obviously for tabbed interface.

The use-case for this patch is when the menus are not exactly in the format expected by WordPress (but instead desired by the client) it can sometimes take hours of trial and error to get the permissions to allow users access to the menus they should be allowed access to.
For example, if the first submenu page for a menu page is removed from the menu, even when it makes logical sense to the user WordPress currently does not allow that menu option to be viewed. These hooks would give plugin developers the ability to modify the menus and still enable users access to the pages they need access to.",mikeschinkel

{{{
Error saving media attachment.

If you try instead to upload from the post edit page, you get a much more helpful message:
{{{
Unable to create directory /path/wp-content/uploads. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
}}}
In each case, the root error is the same, but the second error message points the way to a solution. Even if the user doesn't know herself what that message means, it's a message that provides the necessary information to someone else who does and is trying to help the user. The first message is completely useless, as it states only what we already know: something went wrong.
The reason Media > Add new doesn't offer a helpful message is that the error is generated on one page request, and ''then'' the user is redirected to another page.
We need a standard, cross-page-load way of conveying messages in admin.
I've thought of a few possible ways of doing this:
* Define and use a standardized set of error codes and associated error messages. This is similar to what happens currently on many pages: the unhelpful ""Error saving media attachment."" appears when the message argument is set to ""3."" What I'm suggesting would use a common set of message codes across the admin and be much more detailed. So the above situation would instead produce a message like ""Unable to create the uploads directory.""
* Save error messages to a cookie. Unlike the previous method, this would allow messages to be made particular to their event.
* Have some kind of user messaging stack. New messages would be pushed into a user's stack (stored in usermeta) and popped off after a certain time, or when read, etc. This has the advantage of lasting across sessions and browsers and being usable for other applications, such as PMs between users.

This was very useful for quickly sorting posts and is absolutely necessary when you have editor users without the 'edit_users' capability, as unlike admin users (most of us) they don't have access to the 'users' tab and thus have no way to see the manage screen sorted by user. The manage screen sorts by user simply by adding ?&author=$id in the url, but for users without access to the 'users' tab, even author id's are innaccessible.
In the #wordpress-dev irc channel ryan boren expressed that the filter was removed because in some cases there were too many users in the system and the resulting dropdown was slowing down pageload time and ruining user experience. This is a paradox, because the more users your system has the more likely you are to need this filter.
Wordpress needs to support filtering by author somehow if it wants to be a serious multi-user platform. Our editors are pulling out their hair.
My personal opinion is that the dropdown select should be reinstated. Filters should be added to the list such that only users who can post are listed (other users have no use in the Manage > Posts screen), as well as to show only users with at least 1 post. This should avoid slowing down pages for installations where most users are 'subscribers', which would otherwise mean all open-registration blogs would have hugely long lists.
Given those two filters, I think that anyone who still has load-time problems should deal with their problem themselves using a plugin. It should be easy to remove the filter dropdown if you don't want it using a plugin, as well as to further filter the authors shown to reduce their number.
Any installation with that many users deserves the option of deciding if they want the pulldown or not, and I think many would choose to keep it even if there are problems because it is so incredibly useful in filtering through hundreds of users worth of posts.
(Consider: the full categories list is shown, even if there are hundreds, despite the fact that this has the same effect on performance as many authors does).
Also in IRC Matt M proposed that some kind of text box + ajax to predict which author you mean could be used for this purpose. I think that is a great idea but would take a lot more work than what I propose (the work for hte pulldown is already done and the old functions are still there, all that's needed is to add filtering and re-work it into edit.php). It could also be used in the 'Users' context for search though, so it could be worth the effort. ",jeremyclarke

On such monitors, the layout of the WordPress Add Post/Add Page UI is not optimal.
On, say, a 1920x1080 screen, the first column, containing the TinyMCE editor and title field, occupies the vast middle of the screen, with the WordPress chrome at the left and Column No. 2 at the right.
If a user has chosen to show additional fields not shown by default - like Excerpt, Send Trackbacks, Custom Fields, Discussion, Slug, and Author - these all appear below the TinyMCE editor, out of sight on a widescreen. Take a lot at the screenshot attached to this ticket.
Showing two columns by default is perfectly fine, but those with widescreen displays would benefit from gaining the ability to change the number of columns in the screen layout to three without needing a plugin, or having to hack the admin. This doesn't seem like it would be too difficult of an option to add to core.
Allowing three columns to be set would permit users with hi-res monitors to easily make better use of the screen real estate: all of the available fields would be visible without the need for scrolling.
Many users, incidentally, utilize fixed-width themes on their sites, and if the theme is sending its CSS to the post editor in order to enable the user to accurately preview what the text will look like (truer WYSIWYG), having a really wide post editor is especially useless.
I've attached a three-column mockup I made in KolourPaint. The mockup shows what a three-column post editor layout could look like. As you can see from the mockup, all available fields in WordPress Core fit into the viewport. ",avcascade

19691,Cannot modify admin messages for /wp-admin/edit.php,,Administration,3.3,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,enhancement,new,dev-feedback,2011-12-30T02:10:01Z,2013-02-26T17:51:13Z,"The admin console messages output on line `264` of WordPress 3.3's file `/wp-admin/edit.php` are not filterable. This causes problems when added row actions need to HTTP GET from to WordPress to modify a post and then display an appropriate message complete with a revert link ''(like the ""Trash"" link does.)''
An example use-case could be for a custom post type used for both quotes and invoices where a row action might be ''""Convert Quote to Invoice""'' where you'd want a message and link displayed at the top of the admin after similar to this:
- ''Quote #{$post_id} converted to Invoice. __Revert__''
Currently the only way to accomplish this is to pick hooks before and after the messages are output and use PHP's output buffering; clearly not a ''""best practice""'' approach.
In order to address this I'm proposing an '''`'admin_messages'`''' filter hook to run just before the messages are output:
{{{
$messages = apply_filters( 'admin_messages', $messages );
}}}
However, since messages are output in numerous locations in the WordPress admin it seemed best to add the hook in every location where messages are output, which is what my patch does. Thus a hook can look at `$pagenow` or `get_current_screen()` to decide it is needs to do anything.
Also while searching for places in the admin code that echo messages I found `$messages` are sometimes an array of HTML where the entire array is echoed and other times the $messages are an array with an index passed via `$_GET` and only one message will be displayed. For those cases I created another hook '''`'admin_message'`''' ''(note that this hook name is singular)'':
{{{
$message = apply_filters( 'admin_message', $message, $messages, $_GET['message'] );
}}}
I really only found a specific need for `/wp-admin/edit.php` today, but it seemed that it would be better for consistency if all messages were made hook filterable. That's why I created a larger patch when all my use-case needs is one new line.
Looking forward to your feedback.

Beside tests focused on functionality (where I directly call my plugin functions) I write some basic integrations tests, which should test that WordPress will call my function, pass data in expected format and recognize data returned from it. For frontend it is quite easy - theme API is well-defined, so I can write something like this:
{{{
public function test_something() {
// add new post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( array( ... ) );
$this->assertGreaterThan( 0, $post_id );
// go to post page
$this->go_to( get_permalink( $post_id ) );
// main loop
$checked_post = false;
while ( have_posts() ) {
the_post();
if ( $post_id == get_the_ID() ) {
$checked_post = true;
// test that content is modified
ob_start();
the_content();
$result = ob_get_clean();
$this->assertEquals( '...', $result );
}
}
// make sure test above was executed
$this->assertTrue( $checked_post );
}
}}}
Unfortunately this is not true for admin backend - there most of code is written directly at file level (not in functions and classes), so I would need to either duplicate this code in my tests (bad approach, because would have to monitor original code for changes), or test using whole file (either load it directly or use Selenium) - in this case test would be more complicated.
Therefore I logged this ticket, to start discussion how we can perform refactoring of admin backend to make it more tests-friendly, and how to test it more thoroughly. Most probably we would also need to modify the testing framework (e.g. introduce new `admin_go_to()` method).",sirzooro

20956,Navigation changes: Posts/Pages,,Administration,3.4,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,enhancement,new,has-patch,2012-06-14T14:42:25Z,2013-01-22T03:30:06Z,"1. Explaining the difference between Posts and Pages to new users is time consuming and often frustrating. We've all done it, have our best/fastest version of the talk down pat, but it still takes longer than it should to get many new users to the point of understanding the difference.
2. Back in 2.7, when we set up the left navigation we put Pages at the bottom of the content nav section because in testing 2.5/2.6 so many people complained about accidentally clicking Posts/Pages by accident because they were close together in the old UI and both started with P (blame it on capital_p). Because of this, Pages falls below the less-frequently accessed areas of Media and Links, and people don't necessarily see it right away because they expect it to be higher up.
I've been testing out two changes to the left navigation aimed at reducing these two issues on my test blog for some time now, and have been using it during demos with both new and existing users to great success, so I think it's time to propose it for core.
Change 1: Change the Posts label to Blog. All Posts can remain as is, or could be reduced to just Posts, since the reason we added the All in the first place was that Matt thought it looked weird to have the same word shown twice.
This change reduces the amount of time it takes me to get a new user really understanding the difference between posts and pages by about 75% (very informal testing, have kept track with about 30 new users by just keeping an eye on the computer clock to see how long it is before we move on). The dynamic blog/static site difference is much easier to grasp when they see that familiar word Blog instead of Posts because ""posting"" is an action that applies even to static content, and even posts are displayed in web pages (vs Pages).
Change 2: move Pages up the menu to sit below Blog, so the two most important content types are at the top. Since they wouldn't look similar (ha ha capital_p) there would be much less risk of accidental misclick based on letter shape (poor manual dexterity would not be affected, but in that case those people are already clicking the wrong things, right?)
I've attached a screenshot showing what the navigation would look like with these changes. ",jane

1. A very simple solution:
Put the ""Allow people to post comments on new posts"" at the top of the options list, with a little space below it. That would make that option the most prominent on the page, without making it stand out too much.

Suggested fix: comments caught as spam should record the reason. This should be displayed to the user, and used internally by spam filter plugins to decide how to handle false positives.

The UX on this section is fairly terrible. We give the user an editable ""rel"" field and then don't let them edit it via javascript. Note that if you disable javascript and then edit that field, then your changes are indeed saved and then even show up on the resulting pages correctly. That javascript just won't let you manually edit the field.
I propose that the javascript on this section be changed to allow manual editing of that field, and to make the checkbox/radio sections just add/remove the relevant bits from the field when they are selected/deselected. Result should allow user to manually insert stuff into the rel field and leave those manual insertions unaltered when changing the radio/checkboxes, unless they conflict with the selections being made directly.
Also, side note, would be nice to add a nofollow checkbox to this section as well, to allow easy addition of nofollow to the rel field, which would be handy for the somewhat over-controlling SEO oriented people. ;)

My initial approach would be to change the page to
- Include a !WordPress logo, and a link back to the Admin area
- Change the message to something like ""The link you've followed has now expired, In order to complete the action you were performing, please return to the previous page, refresh it, and attempt to follow the link again."".
- In the case where this is happening within the !WordPress admin, it would make sense to have some kind of UI on the page as well - This can currently be done by not using `check_admin_referer()` and using `wp_verify_nonce()` directly and redirecting to an error page.
The current message could often cause confusion, as of course the user wants to do it (They just followed a link!) but as there's no continue button, they're left confused.",dd32

Seems safer to use isset() instead, since position doesn't technically need to be an integer. ($menu gets sorted before being output, and '50' is the same as 50 in that case)
This has the added benefit of allowing MANY more spaces in the $menu variable. For instance, if you passed '50.555' as menu_position, there's very little chance that this will conflict with another theme/plugin register a custom menu or custom post type, and will successfully go between 50 and 51 in the $menu array.
There are currently no checks on $position when using add_menu_page() ... but the checks on register_post_type() currently make this an invalid universal solution.
Personally, I don't see a downside to letting menu_position be a string. Anything other than a number (whole or decimal) will just go to the bottom of the $menu array, anyway, after the sort.

I propose something similar to the register_sidebar function, looking like this:
add_settings_section( $id, $title, $callback, $page, $args )
$args would accept 3 parameters: before_section, after_section, and section_class.
This way you can style each individual section with relative ease. Just a thought and enhancement to the Settings API.

There isn't a rule or guideline whether a plugin should make a tab or link under settings or if it even has to do any of the above. We all agreed that all plugins should have a link under settings. If the plugin enhances a different part of the site, the settings page could just tell you where the plugin feature is located.
We also agreed that themes should put features like a static front page under customize like most already do, though I heard Responsive doesn't. I was told it puts static front page under settings. If it is a theme feature, then logically you should be able to at least find a link to where the features are under themes.

22862,Consider a CSS preprocessor,,Administration,,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,feature request,new,,2012-12-11T22:01:36Z,2013-01-16T10:33:34Z,"The WordPress admin UI CSS is woefully doomed to a life of inadequacy unless we can amenably agree to use technology already available to build a better future for us and our children.
I propose the introduction of SASS for the WordPress admin styling. SASS is a CSS pre-processor that allows us to write DRY, structured, lightweight CSS. In terms of licensing, SASS is GPL-compatible, licensed under the MIT license.
'''Why use SASS over LESS?'''
The answer is simple. SASS is easier to learn and easier to use because it follows the conventions of CSS at its core. In addition, for developers itching to contribute, there are some extremely useful and easy-to-follow reference docs for SASS, making it easy to set up your local development environment and build websites.
'''What are the advantages?'''
The biggest advantage is that we can write less CSS and offer advanced features for theming the WordPress Admin UI. Developers can more easily reskin the WordPress admin.
Another major benefit is that SASS offers the use of variables within our stylesheets. For our purposes, these variables can be used to calculate layout widths, generate color schemes, font sizes, etc.
Another simple advantage is the fact that we can combine all our CSS styles into a single stylesheet, saving precious HTTP requests. In addition, we can easily minify generated CSS files in bundled versions of WordPress, saving file size and killing unnecessary white space, thus decreasing load times of the admin even further.
'''What are the disadvantages?'''
Developers will need to install Ruby and SASS in order to modify styles for the WordPress Admin. For plugin authors, we should write admin UI CSS in such a way that it is easily overridden with a custom CSS file.
In addition, developers would need to learn SASS if they are going to work directly on the styles for the WordPress admin. For the most part, once you've got the idea of variables, mix-ins, and the structure - you're ready to rock.
Last, but not least, when SASS files are modified, they would need to be compiled and committed to Core every time they change. So instead of pushing a single CSS file, you would be pushing potentially many SCSS files and a generated CSS file.
'''In Summary'''
SASS is a great way to reduce code overhead by adhering to DRY principles and will improve performance and modularity in the WordPress admin, which is a top priority.",chriswallace

24313,Filter Columns by View,,Administration,,normal,normal,Awaiting Review,feature request,new,,2013-05-11T01:18:56Z,2013-05-11T14:12:54Z,"After searching extensively for a way to do this, and discussing this with fellow WordPress developers, I believe I have found a feature that should be added to WordPress.
When you make a new custom post type, if you have WordPress register a UI for it, it outputs a screen named ""All XXXX's"". Within these, WordPress automatically adds filters. So let's say I've registered a CPT called Downloads.
So I can now use the built in UI for Downloads and filter the page to show just pending downloads, or just published downloads, for instance.
However, the issue becomes what if you want to display a column for some views, but not others. For instance, if Downloads has a column called ""Sales"" where the number of sales of that particular download is stored, it makes no sense to show that column on Pending Downloads (since they can't have sales before being published).
Currently, at least after days of trying to find a way of doing this, there is no way to do this for the tables registered by WordPress. If I make my own List_Table, then I can do this.
However, there should be a way of adding columns based on filter, so that a developer who adds a column programmatically can go:
{{{
if($view != pending){
// register sales column
}
}}}
Feel free to correct me if I've overlooked a method of doing this.

Clients sometimes require this because it is easier for their users. Also, it is useful if replacing another CMS with WordPress for the root of the admin to have the same URL, although this can be partially fixed with a redirect.
Even when not ''required'' per se, some of us prefer to use a different URL to access the admin because it is more intuitive for our users to use something like {{{/admin/}}} instead of {{{/wp-admin/}}}.
To be clear: I am not suggesting renaming the wp-admin directory, nor am I suggesting adding an option in the UI to change the path.
Rather, I am suggesting that small tweaks be ade to make it easier for power-users to enable the use of a different URL to access the admin area.
I suggest making the following changes :
'''1.''' Use relative urls within the admin where possible without affecting standard installations.
'''2.''' Allow power-users to add a constant to wp-config.php to change the path of the admin for those links which have to be absolute.
I don't think there is much work involved and I am happy to do it.
Core devs have in the past stated that the user of alternative urls to access the admin is 'not supported', but it is unclear whether this simply means that it doesn't work at the present time or that the core team is opposed to allowing it to happen.[[BR]]

Keep in mind that meta boxes are not just registered on CPT pages — they are also used on the dashboard, in menus, and in custom UIs. The parent class should be suitable for each of these cases.
I think we should move caps to the main Meta Box class (and allow subclasses/instances to specify/override the cap through $args), and also provide $args to enable/disable any checks we perform before saving (e.g. autosave, etc).

Attached is a test case for determining browser behavior when using pushState.
The numbered links use AJAX and pushState. The ""Other"" link is a real (non-AJAX) link to an external site.
If the state of the page is refreshed via AJAX, you'll see a var_dump( $_POST ). If the state of the page is refreshed by a page refresh, you won't.

* Twenty Thirteen shows the header with a wrong color (see the screenshot).

From the [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19910 original customizer ticket]:
> Settings and sections both contain priority parameters (you can specify these in the constructor or alter them afterwards) which serve as the primary means of sorting sections before they're rendered. The order settings/sections are added serves as a secondary sorting mechanism (tiebreaker) when multiple items share the same priority.
I was under the impression that if the priority was the same, the sections would appear in the order they were added. However, if you add sections A, B, and C (in that order) it seems to display them in order B, C, A.
To replicate, add this code to your theme:
{{{
