One problem with them is they often include their own styles and scripts.

See: http://www.die.net/musings/page_load_time/ My suggestion would be an API that allows all plugin/css to be included in 1 PHP generated CSS and Javascript. This would drastically consolidate requests. For performance reasons it should ideally be cached so that it's only regenerated when a plugin is loaded/reloaded. This is becoming a bigger issue as plugins become more common and useful. I hope a solution is found that gives plugin authors the freedom they need, and blog owners the performance they want, without having to sacrifice features.

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.

In WordPress 2.5, thumbnail files are automatically created. The xmlrpc API should provide a way to get the URLs of the thumbnail files, preferably in the returned hash from the wp.uploadFile call. That is, wp.uploadFile currently returns url = ""http://myhost/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/myImage.jpg"". In addition, it should return ""thumbnailSmallUrl = ..."" and ""thumbnailMediumUrl = ..."". (I'm not sure if this would break MetaWeblog compatibility.) Background: WordPress 2.5 now automatically creates thumbnail images for uploaded image files according to the (maximum) sizes specified in the Miscellaneous settings page. When resizing, the aspect ratio is maintained, and the filenames are named for the exact size of the image. For example, if I upload: dsc-0151.jpg Using the default thumbnail settings of 150x150 and 300x300, these files will be created: dsc-0151-300x199.jpg dsc-0151-150x150.jpg Note that the first filename for the medium thumbnail is called ""300x199"" not ""300x300"".

The following replacement function fixes all three issues (issue 3 fixed in the parameter name, still needs fixing in the docs): {{{ function get_category_parents($id, $link = FALSE, $separator = '/', $useslug = FALSE, $trailingseparator = TRUE, $usedescfortitle = FALSE) { $output = """"; // Get the category from the id $category = &get_category($id); if(is_wp_error($category)) { return $category; } // Use the slug or the category name if($useslug) { $name = $category->slug; } else { $name = $category->cat_name; } // If this is not a top-level parent, first get the parent of this category. if($category->parent && ($category->parent != $category->term_id)) { $output = get_category_parents($category->parent, $link, $separator, $useslug, $trailingseparator, $usedescfortitle); // If the parent output did NOT contain a trailing separator // we need to add the separator between category names/links if(!$trailingseparator) { $output .= $separator; } } // Output a link or plain text if($link) { $title = """"; // Use the category description or the default text for the link title if($usedescfortitle) { $title = $category->description; } if($title == """") { $title = ""View all posts in "" . $name; } // Add this category link onto the end of the string which already contains all of its parent links $output .= '<a href=""' . get_category_link($category->term_id) .

'</a>'; } else { // Add this category name onto the end of the string which already contains all of its parent names $output .= $name; } // Add the trailing separator if($trailingseparator) { $output .= $separator; } return $output; } }}} This updated function is backwards compatible with the old one, there should not be any behavioural differences.

The advantages of using the Atom Publishing Protocol are as follows: * Nothing has to be done in the old blogging software to prepare for import (no export files, etc). Users just enter their blog URL, username, and password and the importer grabs all of the data using AtomPub. * More data is imported compared to the old importers, especially with TypePad. Post slugs, comments, trackbacks, tags, categories, excerpts, etc are all imported. Everything used for posts in MT/TypePad is imported using AtomPub. * The Atom Publishing Protocol is an established standard. With the exceptions of tag additions (which don't necessarily need updates), the importer should not have to be changed and should continue working well into the future. I should mention there is one drawback to using the Atom Publishing Protocol. For the time being, it appears pages can not be retrieved using AtomPub.

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).

This has the effect that if a client redundantly re-specifies the enclosure value, WordPress will redundantly add new enclosure custom field entries, each time the post is edited. The code that accepts <enclosure> elements should only add a new custom field to the post if the enclosure specified is different from the previous enclosure(s). Arguably, for an XMLRPC context, the specified enclosure should always replace the (presumed singular) enclosure on the post. Right now, the number of redundant enclosure attributes can spiral out of control depending on the number of times a given post is edited by a remote client that re-specifies all the known attributes of a post. Consider for example, that when resubmitting a post, it's natural and expected to re-specifiy the <title> even if it hasn't changed. This doesn't cause multiple ""title"" attributes to appear on a post. The re-specification of the <enclosure> value shouldn't cause attribute bloat in posts.

Specifically, during redirects, any port information provided by the client is dropped. If I go to http://example.com:80/, I get redirected to http://example.com/. If I go to https://example.com:443/, I get redirected to https://example.com/. Thus far, no problem has occurred because we are on on server that uses default ports. However, lets say my web server is running http on 8080 and https on 8443. Now when I go to http://example.com:8080/ and get redirected to http://example.com/, it fails.

Additionally, when you have an https proxy in front of your web server such as pound (with http on port 80 and https on port 8443), you run into another problem caused by this same bug. In this situation if you attempt to go to https://example.com/, the proxy server accepts the request and then on the back end makes a none ssl connection to apache. Good so far, but in order to not make any assumptions, the proxy server tells apache that the request was for 'https://example.com:443/' and apache sets HTTP_HOST (very appropriately) to example.com:443. WordPress sees this request and redirects it to 'https://example.com/' by responding to the web browser with a 'Location:' header.

The Browser uploader will return a blank ""Add an Image"" panel display. In both cases the images are uploaded to the appropriate directory on the server and appear when the post's media gallery is refreshed. Thumbnail images are not generated for these uploads.

Note: The maximum image dimension allowed for upload is not the same as the Administration > Setting > Media > Large Size: Max Width and Max Height settings. In my case these settings are both set at 1024 pixels (above the size of the image I am working with). It appears this control panel setting only impacts the HTML image tag attributes for posts, so as not to break the visual design with images that are wider than a layout allows. Now you may ask what is the default maximum dimension for uploaded images. Unfortunately I cannot find my notes on where exactly the setting is in the WordPress code (it has no Web GUI access that I am aware of). I had changed this setting once to work around this problem and hoped 2.7 would have fixed the issue. It is a pain to track down as the location of this setting has changed over time as it moved to different files and functions with each new version of WordPress. My understanding is that this maximum image dimension setting was set to prevent images over 3 megapixels from being uploaded since those are really big and readers shouldn't have to deal with such images. This is old thinking from before broadband and photo blogs took off.

This works okay for most cases but fails to take advantage of the new $WP_User object type. Using the objects makes the user information much more powerful because you can immediately call methods like $user->has_cap('edit_posts') without messing around. It also just makes sense, and not using the pretty object is silly. In some places, like edit-user.php, where more functionality is needed there are functions like get_user_to_edit() that make use of the $WP_User object. I think that WP should clearly move towards always using the modeled object version rather than the straight db version in all places, and encourage plugin authors to do the same. Luckily the $WP_User wrapper uses get_userinfo to fetch its data and rewrites all the elements into its first level, so effectively the resulting object from $WP_User has all the same data as get_userinfo() and thus deprecates perfectly in all situations. My proposal would be to create a new wrapper function to be used instead of get_userinfo(): {{{ get_user($id, $name = '') }}} This would just initiate the object and return it, similar to get_post. It's also fits much better in the overall naming conventions of wp with friends like get_term. If possible, it might also be good to move the actual database sql from the get_userdata() function into the $WP_User object definition somewhere, that way its all in one place. Looking at it now it also seems like the whole _fill_user() function thing could be done more elegantly to explain itself and the cache better. [problem: pluggable.php has get_userdata(), which complicates things] Finally, since get_userdata() currently calls _fill_user() every time then fetches all meta_value/key's for the user, wouldn't it be faster to make just one db call that fetches the row from wp_users AND the values from the usermeta table? If you are checking 30 users on your page for some reason (say, a twitter style list of your authors in the sidebar) that would save 30 database connections, which makes a difference no matter what! [probably should be in another ticket, but it would also be great to have access to a global function get_users() that fetched a set of users (say, active ones or a specific role) all at once based on criteria like get_terms() or get_posts(), it would save time if you are getting many users and if it added them all to the cache after fetching it would probably be a lot faster than checking each user individually] I'm very interested in feedback.

I think this is a mistake - the return value of getmyuid() is the owner of the current _file_ that's being run, not the current process - so if the file is owned by a user other than that of the web server's UID, it thinks it can't install directly (even if it actually can, because the directories are group writable). This can be worked around by simply changing the owner of the file to another user, although this isn't always going to be possible for the person running Wordpress.

Unfortunately this PHP function is not able to handle separators (both decimal and thousands separators) that fall into one of the following categories: - separator would contain more than one char, e.g. "" ""; in this case only the first char from the supplied string is used, in the example given above it would be ""&"". - separator is ASCII > 128, e.g. ASCII 160; Impact: Although this is not a native bug to WordPress, the problem source is in PHP, the impact is caused also in WordPress. This situation is problematic for users in Eastern Europe (Czech Republic, Russia, etc.) where the standard thousands separator is "" "" (space). The users in these countries usually don't want to use real space (ASCII 32) as thousands separator, as it could be word wrapped and the number would be saparated into two lines. Unfortunatelly supplying both variants of non-breakable space (i.e. "" "" or ASCII 160) fails. Proposed solution: unforunatelly this bug is reported in PHP for years and nothing happens there. Because of this situation I suggest fixing such problem in the next level, i.e. in WordPress. This means to create a custom function for formatting numbers, with identical input params as number_format(), just that this one would be able to handle separator types mentioned above. I have such change already deployed on my WordPress blog for several months, so I am going to attach a diff file for the latest SVN state dealing with this issue.

For example, register_sidebar() allows me to name a side bar ""1"" with a id of ""first"". I don't know why anyone would choose those values, but register_sidebar() allows it [1]. {{{ register_sidebar( array('name' => 1, id => 'first') ); }}} dynamic_sidebar() will not be able to find the sidebar given its name (1). {{{ if ( is_int($index) ) { $index = ""sidebar-$index""; /// 1 becomes 'sidebar-1' ... }}} The main problem is that dynamic_sidebar() is trying to process both IDs and names through the same variable ($index) while register_sidebar() separates the two with an array ( array('name' => 'Top', 'id' => 'sidebar-1' ). According to the in-line docs for dynamic_sidebar(): It is confusing for the $index parameter, but just know that it should just work. When you register the sidebar in the theme, you will use the same name for this function or ""Pay no heed to the man behind the curtain."" Just accept it as an oddity of WordPress sidebar register and display. It does ""just work"" if you never use your own sidebar IDs. I started looking at this because I wanted to use is_active_sidebar() which tests to see if a dynamic_sidebar() has anything in it. There is no get_dynamic_sidebar(). dynamic_sidebar() sends everything to the browser or returns false. {{{ register_sidebar( array('name' => 'Top') ); // id defaults to ""sidebar-1"" ... if ( is_active_sidebar('Top') ) dynamic_sidebar('Top'); }}} Which fails because is_active_sidebar() just completely skips over searching for an id to go with a name. To get it to work you need to know when it was registered. Not something theme authors and designers are going to follow easily. There's a ticket to fix this: [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10440 #10440] {{{ if ( is_active_sidebar(1) ) dynamic_sidebar('Top'); }}} Like dynamic_sidebar(), is_active_sidebar() converts 1 to ""sidebar-1"". Unlike dynamic_sidebar() it assumes everything is entered as an id. unregister_sidebar() assumes its parameter (incorrectly named $name, not $id) is an id. But it wants a literal id, like ""sidebar-1"". unregister_sidebar(1) unregisters a sidebar with an id of 1, while dynamic_sidebar(1) tries to display a sidebar with an id of ""sidebar-1"". === Widgets (Admin Page) === The dynamic_sidebar() function is used by the Widgets management page. So, it is possible to create a sidebar with register_sidebar() that dynamic_sidebar() cannot find. You can populate it with drag and drop [2] and not have it appear on the web site. == After Patch == If committed, this patch would remove the need for tickets [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10440 #10440] and [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10956 #10956]. It changes the current argument behavior of unregister_sidebar(), but doesn't break backward compatibility. It allows is_active_sidebar(), unregister_sidebar() and dynamic_sidebar() all point to the same sidebar. === Before === These all refer to the same sidebar: {{{ is_active_sidebar(1); unregister_sidebar('sidebar-1'); dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); }}} In an admittedly contrived case, dynamic_sidebar() would silently fail to allow this sidebar to show: {{{ register_sidebar( array('name'=>'Sidebar Top', 'id' => 1) ); }}} === After === These all refer to the same sidebar (the first two would have broken before the patch): {{{ is_active_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); unregister_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); }}} After the patch this shows fine: {{{ register_sidebar( array('name'=>'Sidebar Top', 'id' => 1) ); }}} After the patch it is possible to force an argument to be only a name or only an id: {{{ is_active_sidebar(array( 'name' => 'Sidebar Top' )); unregister_sidebar(array( 'name' => 'Sidebar Top' )); dynamic_sidebar(array( 'id' => 1 )); }}} === Notes === [1] register_sidebar() allows the user to override the default setting of: 'id' => ""sidebar-$i"", [2] When you refresh the Widgets management page the widgets will disappear from the sidebar.

Enter a search string (e.g. ""test"") and click ""Search"". This will take you to the search results page (http://localhost/?s=test in my case). Notice that it is located at the base of your site. 5. Return to your blog, leave the search textbox blank and click ""Search"". This _should_ take you to the search results page but takes you to the _Homepage_ instead (http://localhost/?s= in may case). IMHO, a blank search string _should_ take you to the search page and state ""No posts found. Try a different search?"" as it does when you enter an invalid search. At the very least, it should take you to the blog page. The reason it takes you to the homepage is due to how the get_search_form() function in the /wp-includes/general-template.php file creates the Action url for the search form: {{{ $form = '<form role=""search"" method=""get"" id=""searchform"" action=""' . get_option('home') .

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.

The defer bit is basically optional though, since most all code that exists uses something like jQuery(document).ready() already, when it's necessary, and so there's not a lot of benefit there.

After studying the issue, I have come to the conclusion that the underlying issue is that a shortcode can result in a block-level HTML element or an inline snippet of HTML. Neither wpautop nor shortcode_unautop have the information necessary to know what the intended to be block-level or text-level, which results in <br /> tags to appear in places where they were not intended and causes invalid markup when paragraphs are not closed properly. 1) shorcodes when registered need to state the display type of the html that they return (inline or block). In addition, the javascript version of filters need to be provided with the same data. 2) An alternate mechanism for handling shortcodes prior to wpautop needs to be implemented. To maintain a separation between wpautop and shortcodes, temporarily replacing block-level shortcodes with unique tokens, running wpautop, running wpautop on the content of the shortcode (since this is a separate filter, plugins can disable it on a per shortcode basis), and then replacing the token with shortcodes post-wpautop. As WP and plugin authors use shortcodes more and more, I think this is an issue that should not be left to the wayside.

This is only my second post here, and my first feature request, so please excuse me if I have duplicated something or my solution is completely unsuitable. I am experimenting with the CMS capabilities of Wordpress, especially the enhanced post_type GUI in the new 3.0 alpha release. While building a sort of Yahoo Answers type platform, I wanted to have 1st level comments as answers to a question (a post), and 2nd level comments as comments on the answer (1st level comments). I wanted to label comments on an answer as ""comments"", but this is not really possible to do, to my knowledge, using ""wp_list_comments"".

There just isn't a way to show them that fits with the detailed system that exists around logging errors with WP_Error. In both cases having a built-in way to display all messages logged in a WP_Error object would simplify their code and make their use of WP_Error much more logical and less haphazard. == WP_Error is intense == WP_Error objects can have an infinite number of messages logged inside them into $code groups which themselves can even have multiple message values/ {{{ WP_Error::add($code, $message, $data = '') }}} You can then retrieve error messages for a specific code using WP_Error::get_error_messages() == show_message() is weak == In contrast to this useful maleability is the show_message() function used by various updater scripts to access WP_Error messages: {{{ /** * {@internal Missing Short Description}} * * @since unknown * * @param unknown_type $message */ function show_message($message) { if( is_wp_error($message) ){ if( $message->get_error_data() ) $message = $message->get_error_message() . ': ' . $message->get_error_data(); else $message = $message->get_error_message(); } echo ""<p>$message</p>\n""; } }}} Living in misc.php, this is clearly not the most loved function in WordPress, but beyond its lack of documentation and arguments it also actually doesn't make sense when combined with the nature of WP_Error, and I'd argue that it should be a first-class citizen of the WP_Error API. === Deal with the input as WP_Error class by default === For one thing its argument is named $message, which is a misnomer since it also supports complex WP_Error objects. I think it should be called $error and it should attempt to handle the error object in as much detail as possible. If this function is given a string instead of an error_object it should just show the text with the default formatting. === Move it into the class defintion === The function logic should also be moved to be inside WP_Error as ::show_message() as well as maybe adding a ::show_messages() to differentiate between forcing the first message in the object and showing any relevant messages. The original function can be kept as a shell for the class method. === Support $code and $data better === The updated function should allow $code values to be specified to show only messages related to a specific error $code (from WP_Error::add()) as well as some kind of option specifying whether the contents of the $data value for the results should be displayed. === Add support for 'types' of errors for display purposes === To really have valuable visual cues linked with error display the system needs to be adapted to handle error types like 'error', 'updated' and something green like 'success'. Having this be part of hte API would increase the likelihood of people using the system because it will make it easier to quickly add visual errors to a plugin. IMHO the easiest way to achieve this would be to link 'types' with CSS classes expected to exist in wp-admin. 'updated' and 'error' classes already exist, yellow and red respectively, and can be a starting point. This way marking an error as 'error' or 'updated' automatically controls the color it will be when show_messages() is run. This would probably require modifying the WP_Error::wp_error() and WP_Error::add() methods to accept a 4th argument, but would be a great step forward. === Use nice formatting === I think the formatting should be the same as the 'settings updated' message from after you save a settings page. It is malleable and stands out in the admin: {{{ <div class=""updated fade""><p><strong> MESSAGE </strong></p></div> }}} == Lets make showing errors easy == Even though these functionalities aren't needed for the current uses of show_message() in the upgrader process I think they will inform and improve those systems when the changes are taken into account. WP_Error is fairly powerful but not used enough because it is incomplete and awkward. Improving show_message() to fill this hole will mature the API and hopefully get plugin authors using it in more detail. It would definitely make integrating WP_Error into the Settings API much easier. == Thoughts on this before I make a patch? == I'll try to work on this soon but am interested in feedback.

I propose post and comment classes that implement common interfaces, and classes that extend these for special post_types and comment_types, and filters to allow plugins to use their own classes at instantiation time. Without actually using PHP5 interface syntax, the idea is to have identical methods to get things from objects in the loop. For example, one common method would be ```url()```. The same method would work on every kind of compatible object, be it a post, page, attachment, comment, trackback, or pingback, although the underlying logic for getting the URL may differ for each. ```<a href=""<?php print esc_attr($post->url()); ?>"">``` It would simplify templates while allowing various object types in loops, not just posts, and give us an opportunity to clean up a lot of the underlying template tag logic (e.g. global $authordata), and give plugins and themes new ways to modify output.

The idea is that in updating the Widget API, like the WP_Widget class, widget areas will have a similar registry structure. In my opinion though, I believe that for backwards compatibility it should be integrated but remain separate from the current API for controlling sidebars, also like the WP_Widget class. In the previous discussion, I said that a possibility could be creating a WP_WidgetArea class, and a WP_WidgetArea_Factory class to register and unregister them. After some thought though, I believe this is pretty much unnecessary. What is a widget? - It is a GUI module with a client-side and administrative view, wrapping how to control, use, and display data. It is a form of MVC, and that's basically it! That being realized, I don't see a problem with adding one more default widget to the core: WP_WidgetArea extends WP_Widget This will allow dynamic generation of widget areas. Implementing how to edit these areas within the current interface is another story, though I have a kind of hacked logic I am unhappy with working in a released plugin of mine. In the future, using widgets for widget areas will eventually depreciate the entire sidebar API. It would only depend on one global area to add and pull widgets from (the theme... cough...).

At first I was thinking you could tell WordPress that you're filtering to a type and it could compensate when determining the page number, but then I realized perhaps it'd just be better for `wp_list_comments()` to check if there were 0 comments returned for the query and if so, see if there are any of that type of comment available.

Typically, the requester is looking into doing front-end ajax requests and the like. There are other use cases, such as wanting to catch specific URIs -- e.g. a trailing /print/ to the url, which the permalink API is incapable of catching. They all got rejected on grounds that there is the init hook that can be used just as well for ajax. Or the template_redirect hook in place of an ob_start hook. The list goes on. When you want WP and plugins to be loaded '''and''' fully initialized, instantiated and ready to go, setting a priority to obscene levels on the init hook works (I typically use 1000000)... but it always feels like you're working around a crippled API. Starting output buffers on template_redirect with a priority -1000000 feels equally clunky. Then, there is the front-end ajax. Yes, admin-ajax.php can be used unauthenticated... But the fact of the matter is, you can end up with SSL turned on when it's not useful, and the lack of an wp-ajax.php file makes many a plugin dev wonder where in the bloody hell he should catch his own requests. It would be sweet if this all got fixed in WP 3.0. The argument that goes ""a hook already exists"" seems extremely invalid to me. There are many places in WP where two hooks (and oftentimes many more) can be used to achieve the same result. Think wp_headers and send_headers, for instance. What they have in common is some kind of before/after flow, which init and template_redirect are currently lacking. One could argue that parse_request is nearby init, and that wp is nearby template_redirect, so they'd be good enough. But the first of these parses expensive regular expressions before firing, and both are only known to WP junkies. Suggested hooks for WP 3.0: - a wp-ajax.php file built similarly to admin-ajax.php. - an wp_loaded hook at the very end of wp-settings.php, with a commentary that tells plugin authors that init should be used to instantiate, wp_loaded should be used to act once everything is instantiated, and that wp-ajax.php has hooks that are specific to ajax requests. - an ob_start (or pre_load_template, or whatever...) hook at the very beginning of template-loader.php, with a commentary that tells plugin authors that the new hook should be used to instantiate such as output buffering once WP is fully loaded, while the second is traditionally used to pick an arbitrary template.",Denis-de-Bernardy Old Tickets,12402,"make addslashes_gpc() use addslashes() fix to use real_escape, rather than addslashes",ryan,Security,3.0,normal,normal,Future Release,defect (bug),new,has-patch,2010-02-27T02:44:19Z,2010-11-13T07:47:24Z,"If memory serves, the main problems with making wpdb->escape() point to mysql_real_escape_string() were two: 1. mysql_real_escape_string() doesn't work on all platforms 2. mysql_real_escape_string() doesn't play well with unslashing Point 1 is covered in wpdb->_real_escape().

I am having problems with uploaded images and am unable to properly troubleshoot because the image upload feature does not display errors. The root problem is that the image upload feature does not display error messages. The symptoms are that thumbnail images are not being generated and my theme (AutoFocus) cannot display EXIF data for images. I have switched to the default theme, disabled plugins and performed other troubleshooting activities (http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164999?replies=1). Scenario: I am uploading a 800x600 143KB color JPEG image. The Flash upload tool shows the status bar going to 100%, Crunching... and then stops once the bar clears itself and the ""Save all changes button"" appears. Nothing else happens. No image thumbnail is displayed, no image information (titles and descriptions) is displayed. When I close out the 'Add an Image' window and reopen it I can see the image in the Gallery but there are no resized images available (thumbnail, medium, large) and the full size dimension is listed as 0x0. When I choose to Edit Image I get the error ""Image data does not exist. Please re-upload the image."" I repeat the upload process using the browser upload method. Once the image is uploaded the 'Add an Image' window is cleared and is left blank. Closing the window and going into the Gallery yields the same results as the Flash method above.

And when a post is opened for editing in the web editor, the content is passed through filters such as the_editor_content and content_edit_pre. However, when a post is fetched for editing via XMLRPC API calls such as getPost or getRecentPosts, the content_edit_pre filter is never reached. This leads to a situation where whatever massaging of the content that a plugin may peform on the way into the database is not reversed on the way back out, for clients of the API. A concrete example of this problem is with the popular Syntax Highlighter Evolved: http://www.viper007bond.com/wordpress-plugins/syntaxhighlighter/ This plugin performs encoding of the post content before it is stored in the database, and it counts on being able to decode that content by adding filters to hooks such as the_editor_content. However, none of these filters are reached via the API, leading to ""corrupted content"" when users try to edit posts from API clients such as the iPhone WordPress app, or my desktop editor, MarsEdit. (My previous bug report #10802 exhibits the same symptoms of this bug, but this is a different cause). In summary: 1. WordPress needs to establish a clear, baseline hooks for massaging content before it is saved to the database, and for un-massaging the content on the way out of the database. Currently there seems to be uncertainty about which hooks need to be overridden and under what circumstances. It seems to me that content_save_pre and content_edit_pre are probably good candidates for this. 2. Whatever hooks are established as the guarantees need to be applied once and only once in both the web-based editing scenario, and in the API editing scenario. I think that having a well documented pair of hooks for this purpose that works identically in the web editing and API editing cases will do a lot to ensure correct behavior when plugins are installed that massage content, and will make it easy for plugin developers to ""do the right thing"" without relying on hooks that are specific only to the web editor, or to the API.

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).

In WordPress 2.5, thumbnail files are automatically created. The xmlrpc API should provide a way to get the URLs of the thumbnail files, preferably in the returned hash from the wp.uploadFile call. That is, wp.uploadFile currently returns url = ""http://myhost/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/myImage.jpg"". In addition, it should return ""thumbnailSmallUrl = ..."" and ""thumbnailMediumUrl = ..."". (I'm not sure if this would break MetaWeblog compatibility.) Background: WordPress 2.5 now automatically creates thumbnail images for uploaded image files according to the (maximum) sizes specified in the Miscellaneous settings page. When resizing, the aspect ratio is maintained, and the filenames are named for the exact size of the image. For example, if I upload: dsc-0151.jpg Using the default thumbnail settings of 150x150 and 300x300, these files will be created: dsc-0151-300x199.jpg dsc-0151-150x150.jpg Note that the first filename for the medium thumbnail is called ""300x199"" not ""300x300"". It's thus difficult to guess the new thumbnail filename for the default settings.

The diff attached is the latest version of my work. The advantages of using the Atom Publishing Protocol are as follows: * Nothing has to be done in the old blogging software to prepare for import (no export files, etc). Users just enter their blog URL, username, and password and the importer grabs all of the data using AtomPub. * More data is imported compared to the old importers, especially with TypePad. Post slugs, comments, trackbacks, tags, categories, excerpts, etc are all imported. Everything used for posts in MT/TypePad is imported using AtomPub. * The Atom Publishing Protocol is an established standard. With the exceptions of tag additions (which don't necessarily need updates), the importer should not have to be changed and should continue working well into the future. I should mention there is one drawback to using the Atom Publishing Protocol. For the time being, it appears pages can not be retrieved using AtomPub.

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.

The code that accepts <enclosure> elements should only add a new custom field to the post if the enclosure specified is different from the previous enclosure(s). Arguably, for an XMLRPC context, the specified enclosure should always replace the (presumed singular) enclosure on the post. Right now, the number of redundant enclosure attributes can spiral out of control depending on the number of times a given post is edited by a remote client that re-specifies all the known attributes of a post. Consider for example, that when resubmitting a post, it's natural and expected to re-specifiy the <title> even if it hasn't changed.

Specifically, during redirects, any port information provided by the client is dropped. If I go to http://example.com:80/, I get redirected to http://example.com/. If I go to https://example.com:443/, I get redirected to https://example.com/. Thus far, no problem has occurred because we are on on server that uses default ports. However, lets say my web server is running http on 8080 and https on 8443. Now when I go to http://example.com:8080/ and get redirected to http://example.com/, it fails. As a workaround, you can change the following settings: WordPress address: http://example.com:8080/ Blog address: http://example.com:8080/ While this clears up the problem for http requests, you will not be able to use https becuse and attempt to go to https://example.com:8443/ now redirects to https://example.com:8080/ and it fails because the server does not speak ssl on 8080. Additionally, when you have an https proxy in front of your web server such as pound (with http on port 80 and https on port 8443), you run into another problem caused by this same bug. In this situation if you attempt to go to https://example.com/, the proxy server accepts the request and then on the back end makes a none ssl connection to apache. Good so far, but in order to not make any assumptions, the proxy server tells apache that the request was for 'https://example.com:443/' and apache sets HTTP_HOST (very appropriately) to example.com:443. WordPress sees this request and redirects it to 'https://example.com/' by responding to the web browser with a 'Location:' header.

The Browser uploader will return a blank ""Add an Image"" panel display. In both cases the images are uploaded to the appropriate directory on the server and appear when the post's media gallery is refreshed. Thumbnail images are not generated for these uploads.

I had changed this setting once to work around this problem and hoped 2.7 would have fixed the issue. It is a pain to track down as the location of this setting has changed over time as it moved to different files and functions with each new version of WordPress.

This works okay for most cases but fails to take advantage of the new $WP_User object type. Using the objects makes the user information much more powerful because you can immediately call methods like $user->has_cap('edit_posts') without messing around. It also just makes sense, and not using the pretty object is silly. In some places, like edit-user.php, where more functionality is needed there are functions like get_user_to_edit() that make use of the $WP_User object. I think that WP should clearly move towards always using the modeled object version rather than the straight db version in all places, and encourage plugin authors to do the same. Luckily the $WP_User wrapper uses get_userinfo to fetch its data and rewrites all the elements into its first level, so effectively the resulting object from $WP_User has all the same data as get_userinfo() and thus deprecates perfectly in all situations. My proposal would be to create a new wrapper function to be used instead of get_userinfo(): {{{ get_user($id, $name = '') }}} This would just initiate the object and return it, similar to get_post. It's also fits much better in the overall naming conventions of wp with friends like get_term. If possible, it might also be good to move the actual database sql from the get_userdata() function into the $WP_User object definition somewhere, that way its all in one place. Looking at it now it also seems like the whole _fill_user() function thing could be done more elegantly to explain itself and the cache better. [problem: pluggable.php has get_userdata(), which complicates things] Finally, since get_userdata() currently calls _fill_user() every time then fetches all meta_value/key's for the user, wouldn't it be faster to make just one db call that fetches the row from wp_users AND the values from the usermeta table? If you are checking 30 users on your page for some reason (say, a twitter style list of your authors in the sidebar) that would save 30 database connections, which makes a difference no matter what! [probably should be in another ticket, but it would also be great to have access to a global function get_users() that fetched a set of users (say, active ones or a specific role) all at once based on criteria like get_terms() or get_posts(), it would save time if you are getting many users and if it added them all to the cache after fetching it would probably be a lot faster than checking each user individually] I'm very interested in feedback.

There are certain classes of pages I want to exclude, and hard-coding the page IDs into my menu code just isn't a good way to do it. Excluding by page slug works beautifully. '''Patch:''' I've included a patch to add this functionality. It is a very short addition to wp-includes/post.php (one new line and two altered lines), has been well used on my (now live) site, and adds a very useful feature. '''Syntax:''' The syntax is identical to the old use, except that where the ""exclude"" parameter only accepted numbers, it now can take strings. If the value given is not a number, it's treated as a slug. If it is a number, it's treated as an ID like before. For example: $subPages = get_pages('hierarchical=0&exclude=sidebar&parent='.$page->ID); will get subpages of $page that don't have the ""sidebar"" slug. (Numerical values are still treated as IDs, and lists can contain any number of IDs and slugs to exclude.)",richcon Old Tickets,9437,Allow the use of inline SVG in posts,,Formatting,2.5,normal,normal,Future Release,feature request,reopened,,2009-04-01T13:39:25Z,2011-03-31T07:18:17Z,"My WordPress 2.5 install serves the application/xhtml+xml MIME type (true XHTML) for the purposes of inlining SVG which I've done on my 'blog chrome'.

Unfortunately this PHP function is not able to handle separators (both decimal and thousands separators) that fall into one of the following categories: - separator would contain more than one char, e.g. "" ""; in this case only the first char from the supplied string is used, in the example given above it would be ""&"". - separator is ASCII > 128, e.g. ASCII 160; Impact: Although this is not a native bug to WordPress, the problem source is in PHP, the impact is caused also in WordPress. This situation is problematic for users in Eastern Europe (Czech Republic, Russia, etc.) where the standard thousands separator is "" "" (space). The users in these countries usually don't want to use real space (ASCII 32) as thousands separator, as it could be word wrapped and the number would be saparated into two lines. Unfortunatelly supplying both variants of non-breakable space (i.e. "" "" or ASCII 160) fails. Proposed solution: unforunatelly this bug is reported in PHP for years and nothing happens there. Because of this situation I suggest fixing such problem in the next level, i.e. in WordPress. This means to create a custom function for formatting numbers, with identical input params as number_format(), just that this one would be able to handle separator types mentioned above.

For example, register_sidebar() allows me to name a side bar ""1"" with a id of ""first"". I don't know why anyone would choose those values, but register_sidebar() allows it [1]. {{{ register_sidebar( array('name' => 1, id => 'first') ); }}} dynamic_sidebar() will not be able to find the sidebar given its name (1). {{{ if ( is_int($index) ) { $index = ""sidebar-$index""; /// 1 becomes 'sidebar-1' ... }}} The main problem is that dynamic_sidebar() is trying to process both IDs and names through the same variable ($index) while register_sidebar() separates the two with an array ( array('name' => 'Top', 'id' => 'sidebar-1' ). According to the in-line docs for dynamic_sidebar(): It is confusing for the $index parameter, but just know that it should just work. When you register the sidebar in the theme, you will use the same name for this function or ""Pay no heed to the man behind the curtain."" Just accept it as an oddity of WordPress sidebar register and display. It does ""just work"" if you never use your own sidebar IDs. I started looking at this because I wanted to use is_active_sidebar() which tests to see if a dynamic_sidebar() has anything in it. There is no get_dynamic_sidebar(). dynamic_sidebar() sends everything to the browser or returns false. {{{ register_sidebar( array('name' => 'Top') ); // id defaults to ""sidebar-1"" ... if ( is_active_sidebar('Top') ) dynamic_sidebar('Top'); }}} Which fails because is_active_sidebar() just completely skips over searching for an id to go with a name. To get it to work you need to know when it was registered. Not something theme authors and designers are going to follow easily. There's a ticket to fix this: [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10440 #10440] {{{ if ( is_active_sidebar(1) ) dynamic_sidebar('Top'); }}} Like dynamic_sidebar(), is_active_sidebar() converts 1 to ""sidebar-1"". Unlike dynamic_sidebar() it assumes everything is entered as an id. unregister_sidebar() assumes its parameter (incorrectly named $name, not $id) is an id. But it wants a literal id, like ""sidebar-1"". unregister_sidebar(1) unregisters a sidebar with an id of 1, while dynamic_sidebar(1) tries to display a sidebar with an id of ""sidebar-1"". === Widgets (Admin Page) === The dynamic_sidebar() function is used by the Widgets management page. So, it is possible to create a sidebar with register_sidebar() that dynamic_sidebar() cannot find. You can populate it with drag and drop [2] and not have it appear on the web site. == After Patch == If committed, this patch would remove the need for tickets [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10440 #10440] and [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10956 #10956]. It changes the current argument behavior of unregister_sidebar(), but doesn't break backward compatibility. It allows is_active_sidebar(), unregister_sidebar() and dynamic_sidebar() all point to the same sidebar. === Before === These all refer to the same sidebar: {{{ is_active_sidebar(1); unregister_sidebar('sidebar-1'); dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); }}} In an admittedly contrived case, dynamic_sidebar() would silently fail to allow this sidebar to show: {{{ register_sidebar( array('name'=>'Sidebar Top', 'id' => 1) ); }}} === After === These all refer to the same sidebar (the first two would have broken before the patch): {{{ is_active_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); unregister_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar Top'); }}} After the patch this shows fine: {{{ register_sidebar( array('name'=>'Sidebar Top', 'id' => 1) ); }}} After the patch it is possible to force an argument to be only a name or only an id: {{{ is_active_sidebar(array( 'name' => 'Sidebar Top' )); unregister_sidebar(array( 'name' => 'Sidebar Top' )); dynamic_sidebar(array( 'id' => 1 )); }}} === Notes === [1] register_sidebar() allows the user to override the default setting of: 'id' => ""sidebar-$i"", [2] When you refresh the Widgets management page the widgets will disappear from the sidebar.

In the admin tool, if you go to ""Settings->Reading"" then choose ""A static page (select below)"" and choose a page for your ""Front page"" and a different page for your ""Posts page"". 2. Visit your blog (http://localhost/ in my case) and you will see your static page. 3. Navigate to your blog (http://localhost/blog/ in my case). 4. Enter a search string (e.g. ""test"") and click ""Search"". This will take you to the search results page (http://localhost/?s=test in my case). Notice that it is located at the base of your site. 5. Return to your blog, leave the search textbox blank and click ""Search"". This _should_ take you to the search results page but takes you to the _Homepage_ instead (http://localhost/?s= in may case). IMHO, a blank search string _should_ take you to the search page and state ""No posts found. Try a different search?"" as it does when you enter an invalid search. At the very least, it should take you to the blog page. The reason it takes you to the homepage is due to how the get_search_form() function in the /wp-includes/general-template.php file creates the Action url for the search form: {{{ $form = '<form role=""search"" method=""get"" id=""searchform"" action=""' . get_option('home') . '"" >' }}} I propose a change in the code that will do the following: {{{ if(get_option('show_on_front') == 'page'){//if the blog is not the front page $searchAction = get_page_link(get_option('page_for_posts'));//get the link to the blog }else{//if it is the front page $searchAction = get_option('home').""/"";//get the link to the home } $form = '<form role=""search"" method=""get"" id=""searchform"" action=""' . $searchAction .

Sorta like jQuery(document).ready() does, except without pre-definitions. Faster, in other words, since it's built into the browser. Correct usage would dictate that ""libraries"" like jQuery and such would get the async attribute, while bits of code that use the current DOM would get deferred. The defer bit is basically optional though, since most all code that exists uses something like jQuery(document).ready() already, when it's necessary, and so there's not a lot of benefit there. The just released Firefox 3.6 supports the async attributes, so you can do testing with these immediately.

After studying the issue, I have come to the conclusion that the underlying issue is that a shortcode can result in a block-level HTML element or an inline snippet of HTML. Neither wpautop nor shortcode_unautop have the information necessary to know what the intended to be block-level or text-level, which results in <br /> tags to appear in places where they were not intended and causes invalid markup when paragraphs are not closed properly. 1) shorcodes when registered need to state the display type of the html that they return (inline or block). In addition, the javascript version of filters need to be provided with the same data. 2) An alternate mechanism for handling shortcodes prior to wpautop needs to be implemented. To maintain a separation between wpautop and shortcodes, temporarily replacing block-level shortcodes with unique tokens, running wpautop, running wpautop on the content of the shortcode (since this is a separate filter, plugins can disable it on a per shortcode basis), and then replacing the token with shortcodes post-wpautop.

This is only my second post here, and my first feature request, so please excuse me if I have duplicated something or my solution is completely unsuitable. I am experimenting with the CMS capabilities of Wordpress, especially the enhanced post_type GUI in the new 3.0 alpha release. While building a sort of Yahoo Answers type platform, I wanted to have 1st level comments as answers to a question (a post), and 2nd level comments as comments on the answer (1st level comments). I wanted to label comments on an answer as ""comments"", but this is not really possible to do, to my knowledge, using ""wp_list_comments"". I created my own function for wp_list_comments so I didn't have to modify Wordpress core, in order to get at the walker class at the bottom of wp_list_comments. I wanted to use start_lvl to add a title for comment level 2. However, start_lvl in ""class Walker_Comment extends Walker"" will only let you change the list type to ""ul"", ""ol"" or ""div"". My idea is to add an argument which would allow you to add a title, along with specifying it's heading (or surrounding tag). As I said, I am not an expert on Wordpress coding standards, so the following code may be completely off. {{{ /** * @see Walker::start_lvl() * @since unknown * * @param string $output Passed by reference.

There just isn't a way to show them that fits with the detailed system that exists around logging errors with WP_Error. In both cases having a built-in way to display all messages logged in a WP_Error object would simplify their code and make their use of WP_Error much more logical and less haphazard. == WP_Error is intense == WP_Error objects can have an infinite number of messages logged inside them into $code groups which themselves can even have multiple message values/ {{{ WP_Error::add($code, $message, $data = '') }}} You can then retrieve error messages for a specific code using WP_Error::get_error_messages() == show_message() is weak == In contrast to this useful maleability is the show_message() function used by various updater scripts to access WP_Error messages: {{{ /** * {@internal Missing Short Description}} * * @since unknown * * @param unknown_type $message */ function show_message($message) { if( is_wp_error($message) ){ if( $message->get_error_data() ) $message = $message->get_error_message() . ': ' . $message->get_error_data(); else $message = $message->get_error_message(); } echo ""<p>$message</p>\n""; } }}} Living in misc.php, this is clearly not the most loved function in WordPress, but beyond its lack of documentation and arguments it also actually doesn't make sense when combined with the nature of WP_Error, and I'd argue that it should be a first-class citizen of the WP_Error API. === Deal with the input as WP_Error class by default === For one thing its argument is named $message, which is a misnomer since it also supports complex WP_Error objects. I think it should be called $error and it should attempt to handle the error object in as much detail as possible. If this function is given a string instead of an error_object it should just show the text with the default formatting. === Move it into the class defintion === The function logic should also be moved to be inside WP_Error as ::show_message() as well as maybe adding a ::show_messages() to differentiate between forcing the first message in the object and showing any relevant messages. The original function can be kept as a shell for the class method. === Support $code and $data better === The updated function should allow $code values to be specified to show only messages related to a specific error $code (from WP_Error::add()) as well as some kind of option specifying whether the contents of the $data value for the results should be displayed. === Add support for 'types' of errors for display purposes === To really have valuable visual cues linked with error display the system needs to be adapted to handle error types like 'error', 'updated' and something green like 'success'. Having this be part of hte API would increase the likelihood of people using the system because it will make it easier to quickly add visual errors to a plugin. IMHO the easiest way to achieve this would be to link 'types' with CSS classes expected to exist in wp-admin. 'updated' and 'error' classes already exist, yellow and red respectively, and can be a starting point. This way marking an error as 'error' or 'updated' automatically controls the color it will be when show_messages() is run. This would probably require modifying the WP_Error::wp_error() and WP_Error::add() methods to accept a 4th argument, but would be a great step forward. === Use nice formatting === I think the formatting should be the same as the 'settings updated' message from after you save a settings page. It is malleable and stands out in the admin: {{{ <div class=""updated fade""><p><strong> MESSAGE </strong></p></div> }}} == Lets make showing errors easy == Even though these functionalities aren't needed for the current uses of show_message() in the upgrader process I think they will inform and improve those systems when the changes are taken into account. WP_Error is fairly powerful but not used enough because it is incomplete and awkward. Improving show_message() to fill this hole will mature the API and hopefully get plugin authors using it in more detail. It would definitely make integrating WP_Error into the Settings API much easier. == Thoughts on this before I make a patch? == I'll try to work on this soon but am interested in feedback.

However, browsers typically enforce their own practical limits, the shortest of which is much larger than the 255 character limit that WP is enforcing. Entering urls longer than 255 characters causes them to be truncated. I tried altering the table so that link_url has a datatype of VARCHAR(1024).

As long as we're already using objects, let's have some more useful classes. I propose post and comment classes that implement common interfaces, and classes that extend these for special post_types and comment_types, and filters to allow plugins to use their own classes at instantiation time. Without actually using PHP5 interface syntax, the idea is to have identical methods to get things from objects in the loop. For example, one common method would be ```url()```. The same method would work on every kind of compatible object, be it a post, page, attachment, comment, trackback, or pingback, although the underlying logic for getting the URL may differ for each. ```<a href=""<?php print esc_attr($post->url()); ?>"">``` It would simplify templates while allowing various object types in loops, not just posts, and give us an opportunity to clean up a lot of the underlying template tag logic (e.g. global $authordata), and give plugins and themes new ways to modify output.

The idea is that in updating the Widget API, like the WP_Widget class, widget areas will have a similar registry structure. In my opinion though, I believe that for backwards compatibility it should be integrated but remain separate from the current API for controlling sidebars, also like the WP_Widget class. In the previous discussion, I said that a possibility could be creating a WP_WidgetArea class, and a WP_WidgetArea_Factory class to register and unregister them. After some thought though, I believe this is pretty much unnecessary. What is a widget? - It is a GUI module with a client-side and administrative view, wrapping how to control, use, and display data. It is a form of MVC, and that's basically it! That being realized, I don't see a problem with adding one more default widget to the core: WP_WidgetArea extends WP_Widget This will allow dynamic generation of widget areas. Implementing how to edit these areas within the current interface is another story, though I have a kind of hacked logic I am unhappy with working in a released plugin of mine. In the future, using widgets for widget areas will eventually depreciate the entire sidebar API. It would only depend on one global area to add and pull widgets from (the theme... cough...).

At first I was thinking you could tell WordPress that you're filtering to a type and it could compensate when determining the page number, but then I realized perhaps it'd just be better for `wp_list_comments()` to check if there were 0 comments returned for the query and if so, see if there are any of that type of comment available.

Typically, the requester is looking into doing front-end ajax requests and the like. There are other use cases, such as wanting to catch specific URIs -- e.g. a trailing /print/ to the url, which the permalink API is incapable of catching. They all got rejected on grounds that there is the init hook that can be used just as well for ajax. Or the template_redirect hook in place of an ob_start hook. The list goes on. When you want WP and plugins to be loaded '''and''' fully initialized, instantiated and ready to go, setting a priority to obscene levels on the init hook works (I typically use 1000000)... but it always feels like you're working around a crippled API. Starting output buffers on template_redirect with a priority -1000000 feels equally clunky. Then, there is the front-end ajax. Yes, admin-ajax.php can be used unauthenticated... But the fact of the matter is, you can end up with SSL turned on when it's not useful, and the lack of an wp-ajax.php file makes many a plugin dev wonder where in the bloody hell he should catch his own requests. It would be sweet if this all got fixed in WP 3.0. The argument that goes ""a hook already exists"" seems extremely invalid to me. There are many places in WP where two hooks (and oftentimes many more) can be used to achieve the same result. Think wp_headers and send_headers, for instance. What they have in common is some kind of before/after flow, which init and template_redirect are currently lacking. One could argue that parse_request is nearby init, and that wp is nearby template_redirect, so they'd be good enough. But the first of these parses expensive regular expressions before firing, and both are only known to WP junkies. Suggested hooks for WP 3.0: - a wp-ajax.php file built similarly to admin-ajax.php. - an wp_loaded hook at the very end of wp-settings.php, with a commentary that tells plugin authors that init should be used to instantiate, wp_loaded should be used to act once everything is instantiated, and that wp-ajax.php has hooks that are specific to ajax requests. - an ob_start (or pre_load_template, or whatever...) hook at the very beginning of template-loader.php, with a commentary that tells plugin authors that the new hook should be used to instantiate such as output buffering once WP is fully loaded, while the second is traditionally used to pick an arbitrary template.",Denis-de-Bernardy Old Tickets,12402,"make addslashes_gpc() use addslashes() fix to use real_escape, rather than addslashes",ryan,Security,3.0,normal,normal,Future Release,defect (bug),new,has-patch,2010-02-27T02:44:19Z,2010-11-13T07:47:24Z,"If memory serves, the main problems with making wpdb->escape() point to mysql_real_escape_string() were two: 1. mysql_real_escape_string() doesn't work on all platforms 2. mysql_real_escape_string() doesn't play well with unslashing Point 1 is covered in wpdb->_real_escape().

And when a post is opened for editing in the web editor, the content is passed through filters such as the_editor_content and content_edit_pre. However, when a post is fetched for editing via XMLRPC API calls such as getPost or getRecentPosts, the content_edit_pre filter is never reached. This leads to a situation where whatever massaging of the content that a plugin may peform on the way into the database is not reversed on the way back out, for clients of the API. A concrete example of this problem is with the popular Syntax Highlighter Evolved: http://www.viper007bond.com/wordpress-plugins/syntaxhighlighter/ This plugin performs encoding of the post content before it is stored in the database, and it counts on being able to decode that content by adding filters to hooks such as the_editor_content. However, none of these filters are reached via the API, leading to ""corrupted content"" when users try to edit posts from API clients such as the iPhone WordPress app, or my desktop editor, MarsEdit. (My previous bug report #10802 exhibits the same symptoms of this bug, but this is a different cause). In summary: 1. WordPress needs to establish a clear, baseline hooks for massaging content before it is saved to the database, and for un-massaging the content on the way out of the database. Currently there seems to be uncertainty about which hooks need to be overridden and under what circumstances. It seems to me that content_save_pre and content_edit_pre are probably good candidates for this. 2. Whatever hooks are established as the guarantees need to be applied once and only once in both the web-based editing scenario, and in the API editing scenario. I think that having a well documented pair of hooks for this purpose that works identically in the web editing and API editing cases will do a lot to ensure correct behavior when plugins are installed that massage content, and will make it easy for plugin developers to ""do the right thing"" without relying on hooks that are specific only to the web editor, or to the API.

This is a problem when used for individual post comment feeds. The function gets the last modified comment across all blog posts. That means that every time a comment is posted anywhere, the Last-Modified header for ALL comment feeds is refreshed. Issues: 1. This is technically incorrect, since only the global comment feed and one specific post's comment feed have changed with the last comment (not all possible comment feeds); and 2. It means that If-Modified-Since requests for other post comment feeds will not receive a 304 response when they should do (since their content hasn't changed). On blogs with many posts and many comment feeds, this will have a large impact on bandwidth because lots of requests will receive 200 responses where 304's would have done, just because a comment was posted on some other post. If I've understood the flow correctly, $wp_query hasn't been fully set up at the time this function is called, so changing this behaviour would require some change in the flow of things (e.g., the handling of last modified headers for feeds moves into the do_feed() function).

The problem is that the image caption shortcode inserts an inline style on the containing div which sets the width to an arbitrary value which cannot be overriden by the theme's stylesheet. The proposed solution is to replace the shortcode function with a custom one which creates the markup without the inline style, but this is undesirable. It adds unnecessary complexity for beginners and is just generally annoying and shouldn't be necessary. Creating an inline style violates web standards and contradicts the philosophy behind a theme-based architecture.

This introduces a bug when the author has no blog posts yet, then the global $authordata is not set, as a result, no author information is displayed. Also, having to rewind the query later in the template is counter-intuitive. One may argue that there's no need to display author information if that author doesn't have any blog posts yet. But I disagree. Theme developers might want to list custom posts on the author template file as well. For some sites, the author page is served as a member profile page for subscribers. Therefore having to query the first post in order to get the requested author information is a flawed approach. One better way to fetch author information in the author template is by getting the query var 'author' for the author ID.

'[shortocde]foo[/shortcode]' produces '[shortcode]' disabled = the shortcode is not parsed at all. e.g. '[shortcode foo=""bar""]' products '[shortcode foo=""bar""]' }}} == Major Differences/Improvements == I. Addressing http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API#Limitations 1. You can nest any tag at any depth regardless of ancestors (#10702) 2. Tag and attribute names may match: `/[A-Za-z][-A-Za-z0-9_:.]*//*` (trialing /* because that comment ends), with case-insensitive interpretation 3. Interpretation doesn't get tripped up by things like hyphens == II. Addressing Ticket #12760, == 1. Changed from fix in #6518. Reasoning: balancing double-square-brackets can have misleading results with nesting 2. Shortcodes escapable by using `[[`, `]]` 3. `]]` is escaped ""right to left"", so `[shortcode]]]` would evaluate to `result]` 4. '[[' is escaped left to right `[[[shortcode]]]` => `[result]` == III. Enhancements == 1. Only matches valid shortcode for registered hooks, everything else will appear as text 2. Can register multiple hooks to single shortcode, uses priority (default: 10) == IV. Conflicting Design Changes == 1. Quoted literals are escaped by entities rather than cslashes 2. Inline (self-closing) shortcodes get passed content to accomodate multiple callbacks 3. No equivalent to shortcode_parse_atts function (Not marked private in function reference, but not documented in shortcode API page) 4. Boolean attributes take the place of positional attributes `[foo bar]` gets attributes `array('bar' => 'bar')` instead of `array('0' => 'bar')` 5. Disallows attribute and tag names that don't match `/[A-Za-z][-A-Za-z0-9_:.]*/` 6. Disallows unquoted attribute values (also boolean attributes), unless they match `/[-A-Za-z0-9_:.]+/` == Basic Interpretation Method == 1. If an open tag is encountered, it is added to the stack 2. If a close tag is encountered and there is no matching open tag on the stack the close tag is ignored 3. If a close tag is encountered and there is a matching open tag on the stack all opened tags on the stack before the matched tag will be implicitly self-closed 4. If text or an inline tag is encountered, it will be evaluated to its parent's content immediately 5. If tags are not closed by the end of the interpretation, they will be implicitly self-closed == Issues == 1.

'''Background:''' I was answering [http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/972/ this question on WordPress Answers] about how to create a second background option in the admin. I was able to do so relatively easily except for the fact that the only hook available for swapping the value to save for `set_theme_mod()` is within `get_option()` and `get_option()` has no context for the name of the theme mod so I had to resort to the highly brittle technique of determining what was being saved based on the order it was called. One small change to `/wp-admin/custom-background.php` and it all breaks. '''Prospective Update:''' Here's what the filters might look like: {{{ function set_theme_mod($name, $value) { $theme = get_current_theme(); $mods = get_option(""mods_$theme""); $value = apply_filters( ""set_theme_mod"", $value, $name ); $value = apply_filters( ""set_theme_mod_$name"", $value ); $mods[$name] = $value; update_option(""mods_$theme"", $mods); wp_cache_delete(""mods_$theme"", 'options'); } }}} I would submit a patch but I always struggle with that.

I originally did this because I didn't want the HTML in old posts changing on it's own, say for example if the oEmbed provider got compromised. However I think that's extremely unlikely since we only whitelist major websites that can be trusted. Perhaps instead we should use transients to cache this data. That way when embed HTML is updated, posts will eventually be updated too due to expiring caches. I'm thinking a cache time of a week would be good, but with some random +/- to make sure multiple caches don't all expire at once. A good example of this is Vimeo. Anyone who embedded a Vimeo embed in their post before a few weeks ago got `
