3.4 Feature Pointers

[ryan]

We need pointers for 3.4 features. Most notably the customizer.

[ryan]

Perhaps start with a pointer to the Customize link for the current theme on the themes.php page and a pointer to the customizer sidebar the first time the Customizer is opened.

[ryan]

Allow multiple pointers per hook name. Rough in pointer to current theme customize link.

[ryan]

The customizer itself seems to short-circuit before admin_enqueue_scripts is fired so WP_Internal_Pointers::enqueue_scripts() never runs.

[scribu]

The @since is wrong for pointer_wp340_customize_current_theme_link().

Also, why are we keeping the pointers from 3.3?

[scribu]

Nevermind, I get it: for users that upgrade directly from 3.2 or earlier.

Filter out dismissed pointers before doing cap checks

[scribu]

20554.2.diff​: small enhancement: use array_diff() to filter out disabled pointers, before doing cap checks.

First pass at 3.4 pointers. Add pointer to the customize link for the current theme on themes.php. Support multiple pointers per page. Props scribu. see #20554

[jane]

On themes pointer, for 2nd paragraph, maybe change to "Click the Live Preview links in the Available Themes list below to customize and preview another theme before activating it."

Pointers: add arg to pointer options to load at window.loaded (after all images have been loaded and the layout is finalized) and use it on the custom header screen, see #20554

[nacin]

Can we call it defer or defer_loaded? Would like the spelling to be correct. :-)

s/deffer/defer, see #20554

Pointers: center pointer on Themes screen, fixes #20554

[markjaquith]

This is still broken. Chrome. OS X. Load the page. Reload. Points to the wrong location.
