}}} tags inside CDATA or with Unicode directionality characters (for e.g., RLE and PDF, or ‫ and ‬, or U+202B and U+202C.) for excerpts or titles. While we currently have pretty good support for RTL languages, there is no support for RTL in feeds - all is left up up to the feed reader. I suggest adding a mechanism to automatically insert these tags/characters for blogs that have text_direction set to RTL - much in the same way RTL css style sheets are loaded for these blogs. I have attached a patch that modifies the feed templates to insert these tags/characters. Note that there is no checking of blog directionality here - this is just an example of how to enforce RTL in feeds, not how to enforce it conditionally. This relate to a previous ticket I submitted (#5517), regarding adding an option to set the feed language - which currently just defaults to EN. Certain feed readers know to display RTL text in proper directionality according to feed language (for e.g., feeds that have their feed language set to HE (Hebrew), will get displayed from Right to Left). While setting feed language is not a comprehensive solution, it is a step in the right direction."

Example: Put the following into the HTML editor on a post with uploaded images. {{{ [gallery orderby= ""RAND()""] }}} Save the post, then preview. Multiple refreshes should shuffle the images around randomly, because you're ordering by RAND(). Now switch to the visual editor, and insert the same thing, with all the superfluous spaces, and save. Preview the post -- you won't get random images, because the funky TinyMCE pseudo-space characters prevent the regex from parsing the attributes of your shortcode.

Can't the Edit Page's heading be assigned an ID so the script can place the ""updated"" box more accurately? I don't want to duplicate CSS rules in my layout simply to reapply the same formatting using a different tag (e.g., ""

Attention Apple-gadget-owning WordPress users! Have you been using the WordPress iOS app for iPhone and iPad? Or maybe you tried it a while back and thought it wasn’t for you? Either way, the new release — v2.6 — will knock your socks off. Why? A bunch of reasons:

Video. Record, upload, attach, and play videos within the app. Yay for being able to catch your friends’ and co-workers’ most ~~embarrassing shenanigans~~ creative moments with iPhone video and publish them immediately for all the world to see on your WordPress site.
A total rewrite of the way local drafts are handled, to prevent the unintentional loss of your pending posts.
Autosave/post revisions. Bam! One of the “oh, thank goodness” features of the web app makes it into the iOS version.
Easier setup. Faster and easier process for adding your sites to the app.
Media Library. We’re gradually getting closer to the media management you’re used to in the web app.

There are also numerous bugfixes and performance enhancements in this release, so if you haven’t been using the app lately, you should consider giving it another try. I’m personally pretty excited to start using the iPhone version more often now that there are all these fixes and new features. Especially the video upload. You know, for those creative moments that make life fun. $\':)\'$

You can read the full 2.6 release post on the WordPress for iOS blog, and can download v2.6 from iTunes/the app store. Happy mobile blogging!

Not an iPhone user? We’ve still got your on-the-go back! Check out the WordPress apps for Android, Blackberry, and Nokia (beta). They’re all 100% GPL, of course, and we’re always looking for contributors to the development projects, so check the blogs if you have mobile dev skills and want to get involved.

The WordPress community took a big step forward today when Matt announced that Automattic has donated the WordPress trademark to the non-profit WordPress Foundation. Moving forward, the Foundation will be responsible for safeguarding the trademarked name and logo from misuse toward the end of protecting WordPress and preventing confusion among people trying to figure out if a resource is “official” or not.

After nearly 11 million downloads of WordPress 3.0 in just 42 days, we’re releasing WordPress 3.0.1. The requisite haiku:

Three dot oh dot one
\nBug fixes to make you smile
\nUpdate your WordPress

This maintenance release addresses about 50 minor issues. The testing many of you contributed prior to the release of 3.0 helped make it one of the best and most stable releases we’ve had.

Download 3.0.1 or update automatically from the Dashboard > Updates menu in your site’s admin area.

Note: If you downloaded 3.0.1 in the first 20 minutes of release (before 2200 UTC), you’ll want to reinstall it, which you can do right from your Updates screen. Our bad.

Our approach with WordPress has always been to make it run on common server configurations. We want users to have flexibility when choosing a host for their precious content. Because of this strategy, WordPress runs pretty much anywhere. Web hosting platforms, however, change over time, and we occasionally are able to reevaluate some of the requirements for running WordPress. Now is one of those times. You probably guessed it from the title — we’re finally ready to announce the end of support for PHP 4 and MySQL 4!

First up, the announcement that developers really care about. WordPress 3.1, due in late 2010, will be the last version of WordPress to support PHP 4.

For WordPress 3.2, due in the first half of 2011, we will be raising the minimum required PHP version to 5.2. Why 5.2? Because that’s what the vast majority of WordPress users are using, and it offers substantial improvements over earlier PHP 5 releases. It is also the minimum PHP version that the Drupal and Joomla projects will be supporting in their next versions, both due out this year.

The numbers are now, finally, strongly in favor of this move. Only around 11 percent of WordPress installs are running on a PHP version below 5.2. Many of them are on hosts who support PHP 5.2 — users merely need to change a setting in their hosting control panel to activate it. We believe that percentage will only go down over the rest of the year as hosting providers realize that to support the newest versions of WordPress (or Drupal, or Joomla), they’re going to have to pull the trigger.

In less exciting news, we are also going to be dropping support for MySQL 4 after WordPress 3.1. Fewer than 6 percent of WordPress users are running MySQL 4. The new required MySQL version for WordPress 3.2 will be 5.0.15.

WordPress users will not be able to upgrade to WordPress 3.2 if their hosting environment does not meet these requirements (the built-in updater will prevent it). In order to determine which versions your host provides, we’ve created the Health Check plugin. You can download it manually, or use this handy plugin installation tool I whipped up. Right now, Health Check will only tell you if you’re ready for WordPress 3.2. In a future release it will provide all sorts of useful information about your server and your WordPress install, so hang on to it!

In summary: WordPress 3.1, due in late 2010, will be the last version of WordPress to support PHP 4 and MySQL 4. WordPress 3.2, due in the first half of 2011, will require PHP 5.2 or higher, and MySQL 5.0.15 or higher. Install the Health Check plugin to see if you’re ready!

WordPress 3.0 Thelonious passed 3 million downloads yesterday, and today the plugin directory followed suit with a milestone of its own: 100 million downloads.

The WordPress community’s growth over the years has been tremendous, and we want to reinvest in it. So we’re taking the next two months to concentrate on improving WordPress.org. A major part of that will be improving the infrastructure of the plugins directory. More than 10,000 plugins are in the directory, every one of them GPL compatible and free as in both beer and speech. Here’s what we have in mind:

We want to provide developers the tools they need to build the best possible plugins. We’re going to provide better integration with the forums so you can support your users. We’ll make more statistics available to you so you can analyze your user base, and over time we hope to make it easier for you to manage, build, and release localized plugins.

We want to improve how the core software works with your plugin and the plugin directory. We’re going to focus on ensuring seamless upgrades by making the best possible determinations about compatibility, and offer continual improvements to the plugin installer. And we also want to give you a better developer tool set like SVN notifications and improvements to the bug tracker.

We’re also going to experiment with other great ideas to help the community help plugin authors. We want it to be easy for you to offer comments to plugin authors and the community, including user reviews and better feedback. We may experiment with an adoption process for abandoned plugins as a way to revitalize hidden gems in the directory. I’m not sure there is a better way to show how extendable WordPress is and how awesome this community is at the same time.

As Matt said in the 3.0 release announcement, our goal isn’t to make everything perfect all at once. But we think incremental improvements can provide us with a great base for 3.1 and beyond, and for the tens of millions of users, and hundreds of millions of plugin downloads to come.

It’s been summer for about a week now. Whether you’re on vacation or burning the midnight oil, attending a local/nearby WordCamp is a great way to spend a weekend. Meet other WordPress users, developers, designers & consultants, learn a little something, maybe share a little of your own experience and knowledge, and break bread (or raise a toast) with new friends and collaborators. Here are the WordCamps scheduled for this summer, along with what I know about them.

July 3: WordCamp Germany – Berlin, Germany. I love it that they’re using BuddyPress for their event site. They have multiple tracks, and what looks to be a nice variety of sessions. It’s only a few days away, so if you’re thinking of going, get your tickets now!

July 10: WordCamp Boulder – Boulder, Colorado, USA. This was WordCamp Denver last year, but the organizers have decided to mix it up and go back and forth between Denver and Boulder, which also has a thriving tech community. This year the venue is the Boulder Theater (so pretty!), and there will sessions for bloggers and devs alike, plus a Genius Bar to help people get their WordPress sites all fixed up. The speaker lineup looks good, and I hear they’re pumping up the wifi this year. I’ll be there, likely hunched over a notebook with Lisa Sabin-Wilson (author of WordPress for Dummies and BuddyPress for Dummies) to talk about the WordPress User Handbook project, and/or hunched over a sketchbook with Kevin Conboy (designed the new lighter “on” state for admin menus in WordPress 3.0) to work out a new default WordCamp.org theme (using BuddyPress). You can still get tickets!

July 17–18: WordCamp UK- Manchester, England, UK. The roving WordCamp UK will be in Manchester this year, and is probably the closest to BarCamp style of all the WordCamps, using a wiki to plan some speakers/sessions and organizing the rest ad-hoc on the first day of the event. I’ll be attending this one as well, and am looking forward to seeing WordPress lead developer Peter Westwood again. I’m also looking forward to meeting some core contributors for the first time in person, like Simon Wheatley and John O’Nolan. Mike Little, co-founder of WordPress, is on the organizing team of WordCamp UK. Tickets on sale now!

July 24: WordCamp Nigeria – Lagos, Nigeria. Their site seems to have a virus, so no link from here, but if you’re in Nigeria and interested in attending/getting involved, a quick Google search will get you to the organizers.

August 7: WordCamp Houston – Houston, TX, USA. Houston, Texas, birthplace of WordPress! Fittingly, Matt Mullenweg will be there to give the keynote. WordCamp Houston is running three tracks — Business, Blogger and Developer — in recognition of the fact that people who are interested in using WordPress for their business may not actually be bloggers or developers themselves. This used to get labeled as a “CMS” track at previous WordCamps (including NYC 2009), but with WordPress 3.0 supporting CMS functionality out of the box, “Business” is a much more appropriate label. Who wants to bet on if there will be BBQ for lunch?

August 7 : WordCamp Iowa – Des Moines, Iowa, USA. Another placeholder page. Happening, not happening? I’ve emailed the organizer and will update this post once I know more.

August 7–8: WordCamp New Zealand – Auckland, New Zealand. They haven’t announced this year’s speakers or topics, but they’ve been running polls to get community input into the program. Of note: in 2011 WordCamp New Zealand will be shifting seasons and will be in February instead, when the weather is nicer.

August 20–22: WordCamp Savannah – Savannah, Georgia, USA. Disclaimer: I am completely biased about Savannah, since I’m one of the organizers. This will be the first WordCamp in Savannah, and it’s being held at the Savannah College of Art and Design River Club, an awesome venue that used to be a cotton warehouse or something like that. Since Savannah doesn’t really have a cohesive WordPress community yet (though a fair number of people from Savannah attended WordCamp Atlanta earlier this year), this WordCamp is aimed squarely at building a local community. We’ll have a local meet-and-greet, regular sessions with visiting speakers (lots of core contributors coming to this one, plus Matt), and on Sunday it will be combination unconference/genius bar/collaborative workspace. Oh, and a potluck! We’ll also be running a pre-WordCamp workshop for people who have never used WordPress but want to get started, so that they’ll be able to follow the presentations and conversations littered with WordPress-specific vocabulary over the weekend. Ticket sales just opened, so get your tickets now.

For a schedule of all upcoming WordCamps, visit wordcamp.org. The autumn schedule is already packed! If you don’t see WordCamp in your area and are interested in organizing one, get more information and let us know.

Arm your vuvuzelas: WordPress 3.0, the thirteenth major release of WordPress and the culmination of half a year of work by 218 contributors, is now available for download (or upgrade within your dashboard). Major new features in this release include a sexy new default theme called Twenty Ten. Theme developers have new APIs that allow them to easily implement custom backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus (no more file editing), post types, and taxonomies. (Twenty Ten theme shows all of that off.) Developers and network admins will appreciate the long-awaited merge of MU and WordPress, creating the new multi-site functionality which makes it possible to run one blog or ten million from the same installation. As a user, you will love the new lighter interface, the contextual help on every screen, the 1,217 bug fixes and feature enhancements, bulk updates so you can upgrade 15 plugins at once with a single click, and blah blah blah just watch the video. $\':)\'$ (In HD, if you can, so you can catch the Easter eggs.)

If you’d like to embed the WordPress 3.0 video tour in your blog, copy and paste this code for the high quality version:

<embed src="http://v.wordpress.com/wp-content/plugins/video/flvplayer.swf?ver=1.21" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="360" wmode="transparent" seamlesstabbing="true" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" overstretch="true" flashvars="guid=BQtfIEY1&amp;width=640&amp;height=360&amp;locksize=no&amp;dynamicseek=false&amp;qc_publisherId=p-18-mFEk4J448M" title="Introducing WordPress 3.0 &quot;Thelonious&quot;"></embed>

For a more comprehensive look at everything that has improved in 3.0 check out 3.0′s Codex page or the long list of issues in Trac. (We’re trying to keep these announcement posts shorter.) Whew! That’s a lot packed into one release. I can’t think of a better way to kick off the 3.X cycle we’ll be in for the next two and a half years.

The Future

Normally this is where I’d say we’re about to start work on 3.1, but we’re actually not. We’re going to take a release cycle off to focus on all of the things around WordPress. The growth of the community has been breathtaking, including over 10.3 million downloads of version 2.9, but so much of our effort has been focused on the core software it hasn’t left much time for anything else. Over the next three months we’re going to split into ninja/pirate teams focused on different areas of the around-WordPress experience, including the showcase, Codex, forums, profiles, update and compatibility APIs, theme directory, plugin directory, mailing lists, core plugins, wordcamp.org… the possibilities are endless. The goal of the teams isn’t going to be to make things perfect all at once, just better than they are today. We think this investment of time will give us a much stronger infrastructure to grow WordPress.org for the many tens of millions of users that will join us during the 3.X release cycle.

It Takes a Village

I’m proud to acknowledge the contributions of the following 218 people to the 3.0 release cycle. These are the folks that make WordPress what it is, whose collaboration and hard work enable us to build something greater than the sum of our parts. In alphabetical order, of course.

Bonus

If you’ve made it this far, check out my 2010 State of the Word speech at WordCamp San Francisco, it’s jam-packed with information on the growth of WordPress, 3.0, what we’re planning for the future, and the philosophy of WordPress.

A weekend present, in haiku:

Last call; final bugs
\nItch, scratch, contort; calmly wait
\nFor now: RC3

That’s right. What will hopefully be the final release candidate, RC3, is now available for download and testing.

Plugin developers: test your plugins!

When I was a kid my dad used to practice his typing skills (on a real typewriter no less) with the phrase:

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

For some reason that has stuck with me all these years. Today I’m going to rephrase and re-purpose that line:

Now is the time for great theme developers to come to the aid of their community.

The theme directory has been chugging along for more than a year now. During that time we’ve tinkered with the review process and some of the management tools, but haven’t really opened it up as much as we’d like. It’s time to rip off the band-aid and take some action; to that end, we’re looking for community members to help with the process of reviewing themes for the directory.

Right now this is a bit like a New Year’s resolution to exercise every day: it’s what we need to do, but we’re still figuring out exactly how it will all work. That’s part of the community involvement as well — we expect that those who pitch in will also help shape the process.

What’s involved in reviewing themes for the directory? There are some obvious things, such as being familiar with PHP and WordPress theme code (and the theme development checklist), with an eye for security issues. You would also need to have the ability to set up a separate install of the latest version of WordPress for testing theme submissions.

Hopefully a few talented theme developers are reading this right now and saying to themselves, “I’d love to help! How do I get started?” Just join the new theme reviewers mailing list and we’ll get you up to speed on this new opportunity to come to the aid of your community.

As Matt teased earlier, the first release candidate (RC1) for WordPress 3.0 is now available. What’s an RC? An RC comes after beta and before the final launch. It means we think we’ve got everything done: all features finished, all bugs squashed, and all potential issues addressed. But, then, with over 20 million people using WordPress with a wide variety of configurations and hosting setups, it’s entirely possible that we’ve missed something. So! For the brave of heart, please download the RC and test it out (but not on your live site unless you’re extra adventurous). Some things to know:

Custom menus are finished! Yay!
Multi-site is all set.
The look of the WordPress admin has been lightened up a little bit, so you can focus more on your content.
There are a ton of changes, so plugin authors, please test your plugins now, so that if there is a compatibility issue, we can figure it out before the final release.
Plugin and theme *users* are also encouraged to test things out. If you find problems, let your plugin/theme authors know so they can figure out the cause.
There are a couple of known issues.

If you are testing the RC and come across a bug, you can:

Report it on the wp-testers mailing list
Join the dev chat and tell us live at irc.freenode.net #wordpress-dev
File a bug ticket on the WordPress Trac

We hope you enjoy playing with the 3.0 RC as much as we’ve enjoyed making it for you. Enjoy!

Problem: Adding the Taxonomy and displaying the Menu Item on the Admin section, when selecting the menu item - there seems to be a difference in functionality depending on what tag the Taxonomy hooks onto. For example code: {{{ register_taxonomy( 'mytaxonomy', 'myposttype', array( 'labels' => array( 'name' => 'Manage XXX', 'add_new_item' => 'Add New XXX', 'new_item_name' => 'New XXX Name', 'add_new' => 'Add New XXX', 'singular_name' => 'XXX' ), 'public' => false, 'publicly_queryable' => true, 'show_ui' => true, 'hierarchical' => true, 'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'XXX', 'with_front' => false ), 'query_var' => 'XXX' ) ); }}} The above code adds the Menu Item for the Taxonomy to the new Custom Post Type menu I created. When I select the new Taxonomy...it ""open"" or ""behaves"" as though it expects to see it under the ""post"" tag. It does not select the Taxonomy Menu Item as ""current"". Expected result: Select Taxonomy Menu Item -> Menu Item obtains CSS class of ""current"". Actual result: Select Taxonomy Menu Item -> Menu Item doesn't obtain a CSS class and IF the Posts menu was ""collapsed"" it expands. Now - conversely if I add the Taxonomy Menu Item to the tag ""post"" - it DOES add the CSS class.

If the home and site urls are the same then you get a '''PHP relative''' path returned. i.e. it uses {{{ ABSPATH }}}, which is calculated using the PHP constant {{{__FILE__}}} . If the home and site urls are different you get a '''server relative''' path returned. i.e. one calculated via {{{$_SERVER[""SCRIPT_FILENAME""] }}}. With web hosts who have the server and PHP paths configured consistently this is no problem. But on 1and1 it could be if you are comparing the return value of this function against another path. If the function can either return a PHP or a server path then your code may not always work. The server path (Apache) on 1and1 has an extra '/kunden' at the start. This means that PHP and Apache retrieve paths slightly differently. Example. Blog with same home and site urls {{{ get_home_path = /homepages/xx/dxxxxxxxx/htdocs/site1 }}} Blog with different home and site urls {{{ get_home_path = /kunden/homepages/xx/dxxxxxxxx/htdocs/site1 }}} I'd suggest that as this is PHP the right thing to do is to always calculate the path using PHP relative paths - i.e. using {{{ __FILE__ }}} / {{{ ABSPATH }}} . Don't use the server relative paths at all as you can't rely on them being the same as the PHP ones. Certainly having a function returning a path that can be calculated from two different base paths is a bad idea. For reference here's the current function: {{{ function get_home_path() { $home = get_option( 'home' ); $siteurl = get_option( 'siteurl' ); if ( $home != '' && $home != $siteurl ) { $wp_path_rel_to_home = str_replace($home, '', $siteurl); /* $siteurl - $home */ $pos = strpos($_SERVER[""SCRIPT_FILENAME""], $wp_path_rel_to_home); $home_path = substr($_SERVER[""SCRIPT_FILENAME""], 0, $pos); $home_path = trailingslashit( $home_path ); } else { $home_path = ABSPATH; } return $home_path; } }}} " reviewmylife 3.0.3 has-patch Defects Awaiting Review 15926 Give header and background images alt tags Accessibility minor defect (bug) assigned 2010-12-20T22:16:12Z 2013-01-11T11:42:52Z "''Section 1194.22 Web-based Internet information and applications: (a) A text equivalent for every non-text element shall be provided (e.g., via ""alt"", ""longdesc"", or in element content).''

As such it's backward compatibility can be reviewed simply by viewing the code. 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.

General normal defect (bug) new 2011-01-30T08:04:50Z 2011-02-01T04:04:00Z "There seems to be a general consensus on the #wordpress IRC channel that URLs cannot contain spaces. I agree with this, and I'm almost sure the entire internet community would to. Based on this axiom, get_bloginfo('template_url') should return URLs with spaces properly encoded, otherwise, it's not returning a valid URL, hence it's not returning a URL at all. I'm guessing that get_bloginfo('template_url') is suppose to return a URL, so this must mean that it's not currently (as of version 3.0.3) doing what it's suppose to. As for what a properly encoded space character in a URL would be, I'm not exactly sure. I know it's either %20 or +, but I wont make the decision as to which of these it is. If you by any chance believe that URLs *should* contain spaces, then that's another problem related to wp_enqueue_script. wp_enqueue_script removes spaces from it's URL. Again, if you think URLs should contain spaces, then wp_enqueue_script should include them. Either way you think about it, get_bloginfo (including bloginfo) or wp_enqueue_script contains a defect. You may argue that you should not use spaces in your directory/file names to begin with, but this argument is irrelevant. Thank you.

You can read the longer version there.

The WP_Roles-Class lacks some consistency (immo). I am not aware of the reasons why WP_Roles multiple class-varibles containing the roles and capabilities, but in this case your logic is producing some errors:

I wrote my Plugins as classes. While Wordpress loads them, I add the roles and capabilities this plugin needs. It would have been far more complicated to do this only while activating.

Creating a WP_User-Object, it will set it's ""all_caps"" from $wp_roles->get_caps($role) which is looking into the $wp_roles->role_objects[$role]. There it will only find those capability of the $role, which were assigned while creating the role [ $wp_roles->add_role($identifier, $readable, $caps) ] but NONE of the caps added by [ $wp_roles->add_cap($role, $cap, $grant) ] because this function applies the capability to $wp_roles->roles but not to $wp_roles->role_objects, where WP_User will look into with the method [ $wp_roles->get_caps($role) ]

I use this as an example cause I faced this problem the last three days. The fact is, if you need those multiple variables in WP_Roles, please, keep them all up-to-date. Do not force the user to set all capabilities in the activation and do not rely on the thought that roles and capabilities will be set correctly if read from the database.

But immediately after that, the new member can visit his profile and is able to change his e-mail to anything. Regardless of whether it is done on purpose or the user enters a wrong e-mail by mistake, the admin cannot contact the member, should he has to for any reason. The e-mail address is of great importance in such cases and I don't think that's a rare need!

I've had the impression that WP was not offering this feature, but then I realised that the code lies in core, though restricted to multisite installations. I find it quite difficult to understand why.

There might seem to be a relation to #13717, but what I propose hereby is just giving the admin of a single-site installation the '''option''' to activate e-mail change confirmation.

I think the implementation would only require a few changes in wp-admin/user-edit.php, making send_confirmation_on_profile_email() available outside of wp-admin/includes/ms.php and adding an option in Settings.

Why would we have to hack the core or consider a plugin for something almost already offered in core? That's why I describe the ticket as ""enhancement"", not ""feature request""."	linuxologos	3.0

Since the response does not have explicit nocache headers, per RFC2616 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt) intermediate caches can use heuristics to determine the cache TTL for the response.  Since there is 0 freshness data in the response, it is not really possible to perform good heuristics, but in practice, caches will assign a default TTL to this type of response.  The result is that private information input by user A when submitting a comment can be returned to user B when making a request for the same URL.  

To protect ourselves against this, we should call nocache_headers() when comment cookies are sent and the comment form is being displayed.  Alternatively, we can send nocache headers for all requests with comment cookies regardless of the comment form being displayed or not (probably easier and maybe safer).

http://humboldtherald.wordpress.com/2011/01/27/gremlins/ is a story likely caused by an aggressive cache and the lack of nocache headers."	barry

Enhancements Awaiting Review	16615	More inline docs needed to explain DB errors esp. dead_db() and effects of WP_DEBUG		Inline Docs	normal	enhancement	new	2011-02-22T21:42:58Z	2011-02-23T06:29:19Z	"'''The Problem: DB Error reporting can't be modified'''

I'm trying to set my sites up for some scheduled downtime of our (separate) MySQL server. I am hoping that I can show cached pages if they are requested, but show a 'We are down for scheduled maintenance' message when a user loads a page that needs the database. 

In the process I'm seeing there are many different places in the code that fire depending on exactly how broken the database is. Specifically, there are some scenarios where `dead_db()`, which is totally different from the rest of the messages, will fire. dead_db() is cool because it promises to let us use a `/wp-content/db-error.php` file to control output in case of a db error, but currently it is just frustrating because most types of db error (server missing, db missing) don't cause `dead_db()` to fire, but instead use `$wpdb::bail()`. These bail()-based errors are used in wp-db.php. 

However `dead_db()` CAN still fire, which I know because our site often has database outages that result in the H2 from `dead_db()` being shown. I think it's a certain mix of ""the mysql server and database seem to exist, but are failing to respond to actual queries"". That said, I'm pretty sure that the scenarios where dead_db still fires are ones also covered by some of the `$wpdb::bail()` situations, and would be better off handled by one consistent system of errors. dead_db() should either be used for all DB related errors or deprecated, otherwise it is just an awkward red-herring for developers.

'''The Solution: Better filters on `$wpdb::bail()`'''

I think that all these messages need to be pluggable somehow and it should be clear how to do so when looking at the code itself. Asking people who want to change a wp_die() message to find it in the code is reasonable, but it should be clear from there how to change it. Ideally there would be a filter in the function that calls bail() that lets you edit the text and/or forward the user to another URL where a maintenance message lives. It should be of of those situations where finding the source of the message also finds the means of changing it.

The simplest answer would be a filter added in `$wpdb::bail()` that used the $error_code to identify the specific message. In the database errors the $error_code passed to bail() are useful slug-type strings like 'db_select_fail'. Something like:


{{{
apply_filters('wpdb_bail', $error_code, $message);
wp_die($message);
}}}



This would give people a lot of control, and could easily be referred to in a comment before any given instance of `$wpdb::bail()`.

To make the $error_code easier to find I think it's also worth reformatting the code used to call `$wpdb::bail()`. Currently it takes this form:

{{{
$this->bail( sprintf( /*WP_I18N_DB_CONN_ERROR*/""
...
SUPER LONG HTML MESSAGE
...
""/*/WP_I18N_DB_CONN_ERROR*/, $details['db_host'] ), 'db_connect_fail' );
}}}

This makes it hard to notice the 'db_connect_fail' string all the noise. Instead the message perparation and bail() call should be on two lines, one for defining the message and another that only calls bail (with an explanation about the $error_message and filter above it).

Looking at it deeper I imagine I can achieve what I want by hooking into the 'wp_die_handler' filter, checking for the exact HTML generated by the DB error (the `$message` value in the code above), and doing something based on that, but it's obviously a house of cards for future updates where the text might change. It will also be easily foiled by any translation of the `$message` which will change its output.

Enhancements Awaiting Review	16621	Check term cache in _transform_terms()		Taxonomy	normal	enhancement	new	2011-02-23T19:21:49Z	2011-02-24T00:17:06Z	"WP3.1's awesome new taxonomy query stuff rocks, but WP_Tax_Query->_transform_terms() seems to be executing multiple identical queries on each page load.

I understand the function can do a lot more than map a single term+taxonomy to a term_taxonomy_id, but it also looks like there'd be some performance benefit from checking the term cache rather than the DB in those situations.

Or, perhaps it'd be enough to simply cache the result for the duration of the page load.

The problem is that there are a lot of MIME-Types for archive files and none have a common prefix. Wildcards are not a solution here.

POC:
{{{

I've tried using ""|"" (regexp) as a separator:
{{{
$type = 'application/zip|application/x-tar';

This works ok in wp_match_mime_types but fails in wp_post_mime_type_where.

I've found two possible solutions:

1) Change 
{{{
$post_mime_types = array_map('trim', explode(',', $post_mime_types));
}}}
to 
{{{
$post_mime_types = array_map('trim', preg_split('/,|\|/', $post_mime_types));

in wp_post_mime_type_where and use ""|"" as a separator;

2) Handle this in wp_match_mime_type (see code in attached file) and use "","" as a separator.

I'm aware that this is not a widely used filter but in my case this enhancement makes a lot of sense. If it works for images why shouldn't it work for archives?

- Go to edit a link

- Click on ""Most used"" in the category section. All the listed categories are unchecked - including the ones that are checked in the ""All Categories"" tab. There is no sync between the two.

- 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.

Therefore this mixes global with local space twice. I suggest to de-couple wpdb a bit from that hardencoded global variable name and move the code out of the wpdb class into that alread existing global function called wp_check_mysql_version().

This should make the database interface a bit more lightweight which could be a benefit when porting to PHP5.

If you look at that line:

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

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

The default behaviour of the new 'Internal Linking' feature is to auto-insert the title attribute as a duplicate of the link text.

This is not best-practise and, contrary to some beliefs, doesn't actually aid accessibility.

'''Solution'''

The title field should be blank by default and only included if the uses enters data.

'''Why?'''

Title text is only useful when it is *different* to the actual link text AND provides additional information.  Duplicating the link text in this fashion just adds fuzz to the page.

Upon further investigation I have also come across the following:
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/16451

I'm not an expert at debugging this sort of thing, but, I have attempted all within my knowledge thus far, and in looking at all of the returned objects and entries, the only difference I can spot between how the default user roles ( which show up properly in the dropdown ) and the custom created roles ( which do not ) are being returned is that the default user roles, editor for instance, correctly show the deprecated level_7 entry, and the custom user role ( with more assigned privileges than the editor ) does not show user levels in the capabilities array at all, and shows level_0 in the object.

This is leading me to think that perhaps there is something happening with those user levels in creating the author dropdown on the post editor that is blocking the custom user roles from showing up as expected.

When running the following code:
  
{{{
echo '

Roles';
	foreach ( $wp_roles->role_names as $role => $name ) :
		echo '
 
';
		echo ' Role displayed in Admin as ' . $name ;
		echo  '     Database entry: '  . $role . '';

		echo ' Capabilities assigned to the role of ' . $name. '';
		// print_r( $caps);
		echo '';
		$rolename = get_role($role);
		$caps = $rolename->capabilities;
			foreach ($caps as $capability => $value):
				echo  $capability . ' '.  $value . ""\n"" ;
			endforeach;
		echo '';
	endforeach;
}}}


the default wp roles return the following capability value pairings


{{{
delete_published_posts 1
}}}


roles created with Justin Tadlock's members plugin return the following


{{{
delete_published_posts delete_published_posts
}}}


roles created manually in functions.php utilizing


{{{

//saved and then removed before running the code below ...

$role = get_role('test_role');

$role->add_cap('read');

$role->add_cap('delete_others_posts');

}}}

but lack the user levels as mentioned above.

In addition to adding Template Version to the standard meta information extracted from style.css in `get_theme_data()`, I think that for this information to be useful, a child theme shouldn't be able to be activated unless the template template the child theme uses (parent theme) meets the minimum version requirement identified in ""Template Version"".

A polite and graceful failure, with an error notice, would be preferable :-)

Reason: many times child themes utilize functionality that only exists in the latest version of a parent theme. They're stuck either writing backward compatibility into into their code, or risking whitescreens.

This not only prevents that, but it could be used to gently encourage the user to update the parent theme.

Just like the ''checked'', ''selected'' and ''disabled'' function, ''readonly'' would be a shortcut to ''__checked_selected_helper''.

I was doing a theme option page and realized that disabling fields removes the data from the data submission.

I have a bunch of fields that gets used (or not) in the theme, depending on a on/off switch. At first, depending on the switch, I was disabling the fields, but all the data is removed on submit if the switch is at off. Meaning that the user would have to reenter every fields if he wants to activate the functionality.

Putting the fields on readonly gives a nice feedback to the user that those fields are not use, depending on the switch, AND the data is kept if the user changes his mind.

So, here's the patch.

{{{

I am not sure how it can be caused? Non-breaking strings were not visible and also not transformed into   HTML entity on website. I noticed them only in HEX editor, when examining HTML source code (C2 A0).

Of course, when these non-breaking spaces were before (or after) quotes, then quotes were not recognized regurarly by wpuntexturize, example:

I don't see a way to configure a Multisite install to use the same wp-content/db-error.php file as a single wp site install uses. Instead where the db is down the page dies on ""Error establishing database connection"" wrapped in an .

It could be a complication of using the HyperDB plugin, but it appears that on line 104 of wp-includes/ms-settings.php when the db is down get_blog_details() obviously fails and wp-includes/ms-load.php:ms_not_installed() is called. Unfortunately ms_not_installed() does not redirect to db-error.php, and instead dies, returning
$title = /*WP_I18N_FATAL_ERROR*/'Error establishing database connection'/*/WP_I18N_FATAL_ERROR*/;

Obviously i could hack in a call to wp-includes/functions.php: dead_db() in ms-load.php, but i try to avoid any core hacking to make upgrades easier.

Does anyone have a suggestion for overriding this behavior cleanly? perhaps something in wp-WP_CONTENT_DIR/sunrise.php ?

I suppose if somebody else is interested in the simple fix, here it is. In ""function ms_not_installed"" on line 224 of wp-includes/ms-load.php, insert dead_db();
like this...

as seen in the main index.php. Most of these occur in /wp-admin.

which is fine in most cases. Except on some windows servers where relative paths can get a bit funky. or if you're trying to include the file which contains a relative include in a file found in another directory (which happens when you're trying to use wordpress for something other than its intended purpose, like developing a more practical multisite system, on multiple domains, with a single copy of wordpress files for all the sites).

anyway, I just wanted to request that absolute paths be used for includes.

for example:

{{{
#!php
in /index.php
 require('./wp-blog-header.php');
becomes:
 require( dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-blog-header.php' );
}}}
{{{
#!php
in /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
 require_once('../wp-load.php');
becomes
 require_once( dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/wp-load.php' );

{{{
#!php
in /wp-admin/maint/repair.php
 require_once('../../wp-load.php');
becomes
 require_once( dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))) . '/wp-load.php' );
}}}

it may not look as pretty but I think it's a saner/safer method of inclusion. Just a suggestion for the next major release. Or as you gradually update files.

Enhancements Awaiting Review	17093	Validation and context parameter for query filter application		Query	normal	enhancement	new	2011-04-09T13:54:45Z	2011-04-09T19:47:21Z	"One improperly implemented query filter can easily crash a site, and this risk only increases with use of filterable get_posts() calls throughout wp-admin.

In the most common scenario, a posts_where or posts_request filter fails to return a value. Even if the filter was intended for wp-admin but was not added selectively based on is_admin(), the site front end is crashed.  It's the plugin's fault, but leaves the end user wondering why WP can't be more robust.

The associated patch eliminates that scenario by checking is_null() before accepting a filtered value.  If null, the filter is ignored, with a warning triggered if WP_DEBUG is defined.  Since this validation is performed in apply_query_filters() rather than the heavily-used apply_filters(), new overhead is minimal.

Another benefit of a dedicated apply_query_filters() function is the ability to apply filters selectively based on a query_context specified by supplemental get_posts() calls.  This will also tend to mitigate the scope of query filtering errors if use of the context parameter becomes standard practice for get_posts() execution and filtering."	kevinB		has-patch

With digital cameras dumping images as IMG_XXXX or long numeric strings, the default image titles are usually prominent and ugly in most of the themes I've tested (see attachments for examples). Some themes use thumbnail navigation instead, but those implementations also feel dated in many (most?) cases.

I realize that the theory is display/navigation is determined by the themes, and that display/navigation can be greatly altered via various plugins...  but the reality of how this plays out results in a default user experience that simply feels outdated. 

Many (most?) themes seem pretty unimaginative in their gallery output and IMHO a more elegant out-of-the-box display and navigation experience seems like it would really be useful for all WordPress users. I would think most users expect something like a Lightbox experience at minimum, but I am not ideologically tied to any particular solution. 

Is there something we could do on the core side to strongly encourage (or even gently enforce) a prettier default construct?

1) Spam

Spam is easy to understand, and should be marking the admin and site as spam. Delete ditto, hi.

Deactivate and Archive are weird though and almost seem backwards.  Deactivate means to turn OFF (like deactivating a plugin).  Archive implies that you're making a site read-only.

Right now, if you change a site to 'deactivated' it actually shows up as DELETED and the front end has the message ""This user has elected to delete their account and the content is no longer available.""  Clearly the verbage on the network/sites.php page needs to be updated (and perhaps the front end to 'This site has been deactivated.' to be consistant).

If you 'Archive' a site it kicks it to a paler pink in the sites.php page (though the 'Archived' text is white and nigh impossible for me to read) and the front end says ""This site has been archived or suspended.""

It's rather illogical there.  Archive SOUNDS like it should be making things read-only (and turning off commenting and posting if possible).  Otherwise it should just be 'Suspend', and at that point, why have two options that pretty much do the same thing from the front-end perspective?"	Ipstenu	3.1	ui/ux

It's true that attachment slugs are checked for uniqueness against all other object types, however, when inserting an object of another type any uniqueness checks do not include attachments. This means that #9539 isn't actually fixed if you attempt the steps in the order described (insert attachment first followed by conflicting page).

Fix would be to add 'attachment' to the `post_type IN` clause for hierarchical types. See attachments-hierarchically-unique.diff.

Still puzzling out why/if attachments need to be unique against non-hierarchical types since there shouldn't be collisions as attachment URLs are subpage style. However, if attachment slugs do need to be globally unique then see attachments-globally-unique.diff (not tested so much).

For example:

{{{
page-slug/attachment-slug/attachment/([^/]+)/?$ => index.php?attachment=$matches[1]
another-page/another-attachment/attachment/([^/]+)/?$ => index.php?attachment=$matches[1]
page-slug/attachment/([^/]+)/?$ => index.php?attachment=$matches[1]
another-page/attachment/([^/]+)/?$ => index.php?attachment=$matches[1]
...
}}}

As well as the associated trackback, feed and comment page rules for each.

I think we could get rid of specific attachment rewrite rules for pages and their attachments and replace them with a catch-all rewrite for page attachments:

{{{
.+?/attachment/([^/]+)/?$ => index.php?attachment=$matches[1]
}}}

I also set the flag to include paged requests (slug/page/xx/) to false for pages and page attachments for verbose rules. I think think this could also be applied to post rewrite rules and non-verbose page rules since neither are paged, though they have pages (slug/xx/), but I will open another ticket for that. This is the part I am less sure about since myself and others have been confused by the paged rules before (page/xx/), so correct me if I'm wrong here (or anywhere else!).

For the /%postname%/ structure the attached patch cuts the number of rewrites rules for 1297 pages from 14361 to 6562. This translated to a drop from 0.42s to 0.31s average response time in testing (tested using siege with one concurrent user for 30 seconds) on a single post permalink so near the bottom of the rewrite stack for verbose page rules in trunk.

I have run this patch against the current tests for WP_Query and WP_Rewrite (test_query.php in the unit-tests SVN) using several different verbose rewrite structures, including /%postname%/ and /%category%/%postname%/. The only 'fail' was for the test of paged rewrites for pages which I mentioned above (there were a couple of other tests that showed up as fails initially but further investigation proved to be problems with conflicting page and post slugs). This gives me confidence in the patch but even more rigorous testing is definitely required.

I also wrote a patch which utilised a new parameter for generate_rewrite_rules() to disable adding the attachment rules, but this didn't seem so clean.

Here's the email with the description:

Hey guys, so I'm trying to harden up (!) my wordpress installation, and the whole world-writable wp-content/uploads thing is avoidable by creating a group that includes me and apache (call it ""checkersites""), and making wp-content/uploads et al group writable, group checkersites, and the directories group sticky.  So, any new directories and files created are group checkersites so I can toast them, even though apache is the owner.

However, there's a bug in php's move_uploaded_file that it doesn't obey the directory group sticky bit, so any files uploaded and run through move_uploaded_file are apache:apache, which then breaks everything with this scheme (meaning, the files still work, but now I can't modify the them without su'ing, etc.).  This has been recorded on the php docs for move_uploaded_files since 2008  ([http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php#85149 note here]), so it looks like they just don't care. I was thinking about patching wordpress to work around this by checking if the destination directory's group sticky bit is set and changing the group to that if so.  Would you guys be interested in the patch?

As far as I can tell, this is the only thing that forces non-root users to make directories world writable (or even readable, assuming the admin will set up the shared group for them).  Seems like it's worth fixing."	chrishecker	3.2.1

If you don't pass in an array of arrays into meta_query, it generates some funky (but valid) SQL and fails to return anything.

The main instance where people will fall into this is if they only have a single key/value pair to look for. In this case, passing in an array of arrays does not seem intuitive, and meta_query should be smart enough to work with either. Examples below.

This doesn't work:

This makes it difficult to extend those classes, since they're referenced here directly. Replacing them with subclasses involves not only modifying the global after the fact, but removing and re-adding the action hook to the newly created sub-class item. 

The fact that this base class is only included at this point also makes it difficult to load your own subclass at the right time, since you have to add the custom image header first, then load, then remove the action hook, then replace the class, then do the action hook yourself...

It would be nice if it was possible to more easily replace these globals (both header and background) with a different class at the time of definition here. I'm not sure of the best way to do this. Perhaps with a hook allowing the user to replace the class before the add_action? Or by having the new itself use a class of the users own defining.

(line 3422 in WP 3.1):
$linea = strip_tags( $linea, '' ); // just keep the tag we need

For some reason this function is not working properly at all on some templates (or that is the way it seems) and instead of returning all the  tags is cutting a lot of them out, making it seem to the server like there is no target link in the source URI, and thus returning a pingback fault 17 unnecessarily. And this means a large percentage of genuine pingbacks are failing without the user even knowing about it!

I suspect the function is having trouble with plugins that insert javascript near the header of the page, though it could be otherwise, as I have done a test to see what is left after this line is run, it returns some garbled javascript, no links at all from the post content (where the source links actually were), and then the menu links.

I have included a workaround in my new plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pingchecker/
Basically it does a regex match for links in your content, then echoes them in a hidden div in the footer, making it much easier for the strip_tags function to actually find them. It works pretty well so I'm not fussed myself, but I thought it worth writing about..

This line really needs to be replaced with the regex match in the actual server code for future WordPress users too. I don't know regex myself, but I used sample code I found here (http://regexadvice.com/forums/thread/48395.aspx) for this regex expression, which seems to work really well.

In any case, strip_tags is not doing a reliable job at this and needs replacing. Hopefully this finds its way to the right person able to fix this. Thanks!"	majick777	3.1	needs-patch

Let's imagine the following term structure:

{{{
---parent_term (0 count)

}}}

Calling `get_terms('category', array('parent' => 0))` should return both terms according to the documentation, but it doesn't. The documentation says that `hierarchical` defaults to true, which should '''""include terms that have non-empty descendants""'''. It's broken because the following code runs if a parent argument is present (lines 1139-3 of taxonomies.php).

{{{
if ( !$single_taxonomy || !is_taxonomy_hierarchical($taxonomies[0]) ||
	'' !== $args['parent'] ) {
$args['child_of'] = 0;
$args['hierarchical'] = false;
$args['pad_counts'] = false;

But nothing in the parent section of the documentation suggests that adding a parent will change the other defaults. The consequence of the above code comes in lines 1266-7:

{{{
if ( $hide_empty && !$hierarchical )
	$where .= ' AND tt.count > 0';
}}}

which means the parent_term is not being returned because it has a count of zero, and I can't walk down the tree to get the other terms.

At the very least, set this paramenter as default in $defaults, before `$args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults )` (rather than in `$args` afterwards) which would at least allow us to override this behaviour through explicit `$atts`. But it would be more logical simply to remove the test for `'' !== args['parent']` altogther, inline with the existing documentation."	mark8barnes	3.1.2	
Defects Awaiting Review	17370	Screen options and meta box settings can lose per-blog meta box positions		Users	normal	defect (bug)	new	2011-05-10T21:13:37Z	2011-08-04T21:13:59Z	"User preferences for admin interface appearance of the Dashboard and the Edit/Add New pages are stored in per-user options in wp_usermeta: closedpostboxes_$page, metaboxhidden_$page, meta-box-order_$page, and screen_layout_$page, where $page is one of 'post', 'page', or 'dashboard'. Users can customize the order of the Dashboard and editing meta boxes to better suit their workflow using the drag-and-drop AJAX interface to move the meta boxes into ordered columns and the Screen Options tab to show and hide the boxes. Many plugins add custom meta boxes to the Edit/Add New Post page.

In a multisite installation, with different plugins active on different blogs, users who rearrange an Add New Post page on a blog with a custom meta box and then rearrange it on a different blog without that meta box will lose the position of the custom meta box. Blogs can have different features and workflows implemented, and having per user options for the appearance instead of per user, per blog options limits the ability of a user to customize the interface.

The expected behavior for moving things around is that it changes on one blog, not on all blogs."	jmdodd	3.1.2	needs-patch

When you're running WordPress in Multisite the $details_url for themes with an update available is set differently than when running WordPress in single site mode. 

In single site mode the details url is set inside the theme_update_available() function found in this file /wp-admin/includes/theme.php. It uses the returned 'url' like so.

{{{
$details_url = add_query_arg(array('TB_iframe' => 'true', 'width' => 1024, 'height' => 800), $update['url']);
}}}

However, in Multisite the url is built completely different. It uses the wp_theme_update_row() function in the /wp-admin/includes/update.php file like so.

{{{
$details_url = self_admin_url(""theme-install.php?tab=theme-information&theme=$theme_key&TB_iframe=true&width=600&height=400"");
}}}

I'm not exactly sure what the best approach would be to fixing this. I know there is a reason why the url is set like that but without a way to change it for my personal themes (i.e. filter or something) I'm stuck with a broken details screen in Multisite.

I did just add a filter to test it and was successful in fixing the issue, but not sure how to proceed from here.

$details_url = apply_filters( 'network_details_url', self_admin_url(""theme-install.php?tab=theme-information&theme=$theme_key&TB_iframe=true&width=600&height=400""), $theme_key, $theme );

 3. Edit an existing site instead, and enter `foo.bar.yourdomain.com` as the domain. The address will be accepted just fine.

Having written that out, maybe this isn't a valid bug because when adding a site you're entering the site address, but when you're editing a site you're editing the complete domain name. Hmm. I'll open it anyway and see what people think.

it's been suggested on the Forum that I start a new ticket here. I think it's a good idea. 

Here's a couple of suggestions that I believe if implemented would greatly improve WordPress functionality and popularity:

1) Make the Display Widget  for pages visible by default, the way it was before the WordPress 3.0. Many non-blog WordPress website owners, and many bloggers, want the comments for pages disabled, but have no idea how to do that, because the Discussion checkbox in the Screen Options panel for Pages  is deselected by default. As a result, most people new to WP 3 have no idea that Discussion Widget even exists, and have trouble disabling comments on pages. 

Disabling such comments is very necessary in many situations. For example, a page that includes only a contact form, shouldn't have comments. Most WordPress users do not need their portfolios, or their ""About"" pages commented – and so on. 

2) Create the checkbox that would allow to toggle all comments (old and new) comments for all pages with one click – and a separate checkbox that would allow to toggle all comments (old and new) for all posts – site-wide. 

Many WordPress based business websites have hundreds of pages, and it would save a lot of time if the owner or designer could just disable the comments by deselecting one checkbox. I do realize it can be easily done by commenting out the comments in the code, but wouldn't it be nicer to have it as a checkbox option? 

Some of the owners of such sites want to have a blog on their site, too - and want to have comments as a traditional part of blog functionality. That's what comments for pages and posts should be toggle-able site-wide independently from each other. 

For best experience, the post comments should also have a toggle checkbox. Some owners may want to disable comments for all posts site-wide, too. 

To see where this request is coming from, please Google ""disable comments for pages wordpress"" and you will see that the issue does cause quite a bit of confusion. 

Also please see this thread of the WordPress support forum about: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-comments-for-page-option/

I hope this suggestion helps to improve WordPress – already the greatest open source CMS platform.

Further inspection of this issue has led me to believe that it lays with wordpress not inserting the correct (if any) meta data for the attachment into the database.

As you can see in the image below, the meta data is present and this image shows all options of inserting the image in the post at all sizes specified in the WordPress media settings panel.

Side note :
I have tried a completely new installation of WordPress with and with out plugins on a completely different database. I have uploaded and re-uploaded the WordPress files also.

This is the type of image I am uploading. I took it on my Nikon D3100 and compressed to 80% @ 960x768 which makes it 83KB so it's not exceeding any upload limits and I am still having problems.

This problem (and possibly others) would be most easily solved by a core query parameter that can find any post_type by its ID alone.

Whenever a value of $size is passed to the function that is in it's numerical part larger than [http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.constants.php PHP_INT_MAX], the input value will be capped to {{{PHP_INT_MAX}}}.

This is an integer overflow.

This applies as well when size has a shorthand ending specifier and it's numerical part is greater than PHP_INT_MAX.

To illustrate the problem on a 32 bit system:

This is in wp 3.2 RC1 and earlier.

As far as I can make out, the only way around for now is to add a post_limits filter and remove the LIMIT in the query when it is a ics feed. (ie return empty string)

While the workaround works, it would make more sense of the post_per_page argument worked as in front end queries.

Possible workaround (use in custom feed function only)

WordPress has historically automatically escaped _GET, _POST, _REQUEST and _COOKIE input from users, even if the server doesn't have magic_quotes_gpc turned on.  Regardless of the reasons for this, having a way to move forward seems absolutely necessary.

Current issues related to this include (among others):

* maintaining backwards compatibility for those plugin developers who depend on WordPress handling this escaping for them
* giving plugin developers a way to help put magic_quotes_gpc in the past
* giving developers access to the original super globals
* making these super global values read-only so that poorly written plugins/themes don't cause conflicts and problems for other plugins/themes

----

Attached is a patch which I believe handles this effectively without causing any backwards compatibility issues.

This patch introduces 5 new getter functions for wordpress:

* wp_input_get()
* wp_input_post()
* wp_input_get_post()
* wp_input_cookie()
* wp_input_server()

When WordPress first loads, these 5 functions grab the original copies of their respective super globals, undo magic_quotes if it's turned on and then makes the values accessible in a read-only way.

Moving forward, plugin developers can be encouraged to use, for example, wp_input_get('name') rather than $_GET['name'] .  In addition to giving developers a migration path away from the forced magic_quotes_gpc behavior, additional security filters could be done on the given values for further protection."	troydavisson		has-patch

What I'd like to propose is to apply a filter to the post ID and split WP_Embed::shortcode() into two functions (at http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-includes/media.php#L1177).

In a nutshell, let the link parsing be one function and if the link is oEmbed-worthy send it to the second function for parsing.  The second function could then be easily extended for usage in 3rd-party plugins not using WP posts (like BuddyPress).

Also, the patch checks the URL against each registered WP oEmbed provider's URL scheme if oEmbed discovery is false.  This is designed to prevent unnecessary external pinging of an oEmbed provider and avertible meta caching for failed attempts.  Andy Peatling primarily wrote this part of the code, which he sent to me awhile ago.

This filter appears also to be run in an excerpt, while my div is stripped in the excerpt. 
When my div is stripped i want - instead of that div - to print a notification like - Here belongs my div -.

So, either i need a boolean variable or function that tells me that my filter is currently run by a call to the_excerpt(), OR the filter should not be run on the excerpt if it is not added to the excerpts filter list.

I tried a workaround by adding a new filter to the_excerpt and setting my own global to indicate i am in an excerpt, but unfortunately this filter is run after the the_content filter, despite fiddling with filter priorities. So, in a list (archive) the first excerpt is still in error. 

The documentation says about filters:


the_content
    applied to the post content retrieved from the database, prior to printing on the screen (also used in some other operations, such as trackbacks).

and

the_excerpt
    applied to the post excerpt (or post content, if there is no excerpt) retrieved from the database, prior to printing on the screen (also used in some other operations, such as trackbacks).

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 idea is to have a path based network for each state/province and sites for each city under that, all networks hosted under the same domain. 

Like so
{{{
Network 1:
Network domain: example.com Network path: /ohio/
    site domain: example.com path: /ohio/akron
    site domain: example.com path: /ohio/canton
    site domain: example.com path: /ohio/uniontown

Network 2:
Network domain: example.com Network path: /pa/
    site domain: example.com path: /pa/pittsburgh
    site domain: example.com path: /pa/greensburg
    site domain: example.com path: /pa/erie

Network 3:
Network domain: example.com Network path: /indiana/
    site domain: example.com path: /indiana/indianapolis
}}}
There are two things that are preventing this. First, in new_site, instead of including the path from the sites table for the current network, it uses the global $base variable which is always / in this scenario. Using $current_site->path resolves that. 

The second issue is that the .htaccess code is too restrictive. It will the paths on two levels. /network/site/wp-admin/ doesn't work but /site/wp-admin/ does.

Adjusting lines similar to 
{{{
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1
}}}
over to 
{{{
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z/-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1
}}}
resolves that.

The attached patch addresses both of these requirements.

On the first click, the Add/Edit dialog link box appears full sized, but empty.

Dismissing the box and clicking the link button again will give you just the Add/Edit link dialog box's title, but not even a box.

Dismissing that box and clicking on it a third time will finally generate an Add/Edit link form in the dialog box, but it won't be functional.

As far as I can tell, there are no JavaScript errors displayed.

This works correctly in Chrome, FireFox, and IE9. The problem only exists in IE8 as far as I can tell.  I tested on 3.2 and 3.2.1

The issue occurs with a default theme, but not with all plugins disabled (because plugins are required to create such a WYSIWYG box).  The issue does NOT exist on the default post/page add/edit screens.  Examples of plugins affected are WYSIWYG Widgets (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wysiwyg-widgets/) and Rich Text Tags (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rich-text-tags/), although I discovered the issue while developing my own plugin.

I also put together a bare-bones plugin to help verify the issue in case that helps (see the new menu item in Settings):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5148765/lems_wysiwyg_test.php  (requires WP 3.2+)

Enhancements Awaiting Review	18105	Improve JOIN efficency of tax_query		Database	normal	enhancement	new	2011-07-14T04:28:59Z	2012-06-04T23:40:00Z	"Use of multiple items in a tax_query creates an inner join for each entry. This seems unnecessary.

Example query:

{{{
array(
  'tax_query' => array(
    'relation' => 'OR',
    array('taxonomy' => 'tax1', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => 'term1'),
    array('taxonomy' => 'tax2', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => 'term2'),
  )
)
}}}

Resulting SQL:

{{{
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts  
INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id) 
INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tt1 ON (wp_posts.ID = tt1.object_id) 
WHERE 1=1 AND
...
AND (wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (XXX) 
  OR tt1.term_taxonomy_id IN (YYY) ) 
...
}}}

Each new entry in the array creates another inner join on the term_relationships table, along with an associated select argument.

However, the term_relationships table is defined with these main keys:

{{{
CREATE TABLE $wpdb->term_taxonomy (
 term_taxonomy_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
 term_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL default 0,
 taxonomy varchar(32) NOT NULL default '',
...
 PRIMARY KEY  (term_taxonomy_id),
 UNIQUE KEY term_id_taxonomy (term_id,taxonomy),
}}}


This basically means that the term_taxonomy_id is a unique ID for the row, and it's pointing to a unique relationship between some term and some taxonomy. Essentially, term_relationships defines what terms are in what taxonomies.

Therefore, the extra inner join and selection are entirely unnecessary. All references to a term in a taxonomy are unique. This isn't individual terms we're looking for in this query, but term+taxonomy. 

An equivalent SQL statement to the one given before would be this:

{{{
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts  
INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id) 
WHERE 1=1 AND
...
AND (wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (XXX, YYY) ) 
...
}}}

This is equivalent because both XXX and YYY point to a specific term+taxonomy combination, not just to a term.

For the similar relation = AND case (instead of relation = OR), this query would be equivalent:


{{{
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts  
INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id) 
WHERE 1=1 AND
...
AND (wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (XXX) 
AND (wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (YYY) ) 
...
}}}

We get a second statement in the where clause, but note the lack of a second inner join and lack of referencing it. This greatly improves performance. 

Only one inner join is ever actually required for any number of items in the tax_query, thanks to the pre-lookups being performed to find the proper term_relationship entries.

Similar enhancements might be available for the meta table, however that is more complex and may be more difficult to improve.
