I had second thoughts about my half-baked logic changes.

  • Ticket #12371

    • Property Summary changed from Generalize get_generic_template()'s logic (and improve its name) to Change get_generic_template's name
  • Ticket #12371 – Description

    initial v1  
    1 There are two, mostly independent parts of this patch:
    2  * Logic changes to `get_generic_template`
    3  * Name change of `get_generic_template` (to `get_specific_template`)
    4 
    5 '''Logic Changes'''
    6  * `get_generic_template` is basically meant to allow someone to request a series of preferred templates, from specific to general.
    7  * Patch generalizes the idea to an indefinite number of slugs, expanding its usefulness.
    8  * E.g.: `get_specific_template('index', 'archive', 'category', 'category-slug');`  (Obviously the particular logic of this example is handled already by core, but I mean to make it available for theme-specific, parallel ideas).

    11 '''Name Change'''
    121 * `get_generic_template` needs a better name, because its purpose is to get a ''specific'' template.  Even the original documentation recognizes this (emphasis mine):
    132   * "if a name is ''specified'' then a ''specialised'' template will be included."
