Description

I have noticed an error that occurs while editing themes from Wordpress' control panel. If there are folders inside the theme folder (i.e. theme/widgets/) the 'widgets' folder is not listed..

  • Summary changed from Editing subfolders of a Wordpress Theme to Edit Theme should allow editing files in subfolders

ENV: WP trunk (2.2) r5237
Reproduced bug using default theme. At wp-admin/theme-editor.php I do not see default/images/header-img.php in the list.

Looking at the code the problem would be with

wp-admin/theme-editor.php on line 21

$allowed_files = array_merge($themes[$theme]['Stylesheet Files'], $themes[$theme]['Template Files']);

This appears to be where the file list is called, maybe it might be possible to follow the sub folders of $themes[$theme]

Replying to thee17:

No, the problem is inside get_themes(), which is called on line 9.

Patch allows get_themes to see Template files in sub-dirs, Has the main impact of allowing the theme editor to view them.

As a side effect of allowing get_themes() to return template files in subdirectories(only a single level -- And stylesheets are not looked for), Templates could exist in the folder, Under the current situation template files can only exist within the main theme directory.

As such, I added a function theme_basename() it basically returns the path of a file relitive to its theme directory, ie. theme_basename('wp-content/themes/my-theme/extra-templates/template1.php') will return 'extra-templates/template1.php'. That allows for the templates to continue working correctly.

Templates can now exist in those subdirectories.

Seeing recent changes in editing capabilites in 2.8 coming, shouldn't this also get fixed in 2.8 Any progress? I would love to see this too...its tiring to edit some files via FTP and remaining via WP-Admin..it would be good if I could edit right from dashboard now that syntax highlighting is also there.
