WORDPRESS SHORTCODE.

welcome to this tutorial section,hope that you read this details above.so now just go to your wordpress admin dashboard and navigate from Appearance>>Editor>>functions.php file and copy past this below code.

1 2 3 4

function shortURL() { return 'https://howtrick.com/'; } add_shortcode('myurl', 'shortURL');

 

To create a shortcode for links, we need to include the href attribute information as well as the anchor text for the link itself. We can do this by placing this function in your theme’s functions.php file.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

function shortLink($atts, $content = null) { extract(shortcode_atts(array( "href" => 'http://' // default URL ), $atts)); return '<a href="'.$href.'">'.$content.'</a>'; } add_shortcode('link', 'shortLink');

 

Then, when creating a post, emulate the following format to include any links you wish:

[link href="https://howtrick.com/"]HowTrick.Com[/link]

which will output the following code:

<a href="https://howtrick.com/">HowTrick.Com</a>

DISPLAY CUSTOM MESSAGE TO RETURNING VISITORS

we also discuss with this in above,so now just setting up this from wp admin dashboard,we can greet returning commentators with a custom message by extracting their information from the comment cookie left on their machine. Place the following code into the desired location in your theme and customize the message and markup to whatever you wish.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

<?php if(isset($_COOKIE['comment_author_'.COOKIEHASH])) { $lastCommenter = $_COOKIE['comment_author_'.COOKIEHASH];   echo "Welcome Back ". $lastCommenter ."!";   } else {   echo "Welcome, Guest!"; } ?>

 

DISPLAY CUSTOM CONTENT TO SEARCH ENGINE VISITORS

Display custom content to your search-engine traffic by placing the following code into your theme’sfunctions.php file

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

<?php function howtrick_fromasearchengine() {   $ref = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; $SE  = array('/search?', 'images.google.', 'web.info.com', 'search.', 'del.icio.us/search', 'soso.com', '/search/', '.yahoo.');   foreach($SE as $source) { if(strpos($ref, $source) !== false) return true; } return false; } ?>

 

After checking and editing the $SE array with the search-engine referrer information of your choice, place this next chunk of code into the desired display location in your theme files.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

<?php if(function_exists('howtrick_fromasearchengine')) { if (scratch99_fromasearchengine()) {   // INSERT YOUR CODE HERE   } } ?>

 

Add whatever content or code you wish to the specified area and enjoy targeted delivery to search-engine visitors only.

DISPLAY LAST MODIFIED TIME AND DATE FOR POSTS

we was read this above,so it’s only setting up time.just place this code on wordpress loop where you want to showing this.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Posted on <?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <?php $u_time = get_the_time('U'); $u_modified_time = get_the_modified_time('U'); if($u_modified_time != $u_time) { echo "and last modified on "; the_modified_time('F jS, Y'); echo ". "; } ?>

 

DISPLAY RECENTLY REGISTERED USERS

Quick and easy method for displaying a list of recently registered users. Place the following code directly into your theme, wherever you would like to display the list.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

<ul> <?php $usernames = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT user_nicename, user_url FROM $wpdb->users ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 5");   foreach ($usernames as $username) {      echo '<li><a href="'.$username->user_url.'">'.$username->user_nicename."</a></li>"; } ?> </ul>

 

as-is, this code will spit out the five most recent registered users. This is easily changed to whatever number you wish by simply editing the number “5” in the first line.

DISPLAY PRIVATE POSTS TO LOGGED-IN USERS

we was discuss for this above,just place this code into the loop or single post or anywhere there you want to do this for private post type visibility.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();   $private = get_post_custom_values("private"); if (isset($private[0]) && $private == "true") { if (is_user_logged_in()) { // Display private post to logged user } } else { // Display public post to everyone }   endwhile; endif; ?>

 

META DESCRIPTIONS WITHOUT A PLUGIN

we don’t need no stinkin’ plugin for custom meta descriptions. All you need is a custom field named “metadescription” with the desired meta description for each post. Once you have that going, include the following function to your theme’s header.php file (within the <head> section.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

<meta name="description" content=" <?php if ((is_home()) || (is_front_page())) { echo ('Your main description here'); } elseif(is_category()) { echo category_description(); } elseif(is_tag()) { echo 'Tag archive page for this blog - ' . single_tag_title(); } elseif(is_month()) { echo 'Archive page for this blog - ' . the_time('F, Y'); } else { echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'metadescription', true); } ?>" />

 

HIGHLIGHT AUTHOR COMMENTS

Make your author comments look fabulous darling! Newer versions of WordPress come equipped with a specific “author” class that may be targeted with the CSS of your choice. For older versions of WordPress, however, you will need to add the custom class attribute with a little PHP magic.

First, open your theme’s comments.phptemplate and add the following code snippet in the (X)HTML element that contains the comment information.

1 2 3 4 5

<div<?php if ($comment->comment_author_email == "author@howtrick.com") echo ' class="author"'; ?> id="comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>"> . . . </div>

 

After changing the email address to that of your own (i.e., the one used for your WP Admin user profile), style it up with a little CSS.

1 2 3 4

.author { background: red !important; color: yellow   !important; }

You probably don’t want your author comments to appear with yellow text on a red background, but you get the idea. Anything is possible.

For blogs with multiple authors, you can style each of their comments differently as well by using something like this.

1 2 3 4 5

<div<?php if ($comment->comment_author_email == "author@howtrick.com") echo ' class="author-01"'; elseif ($comment->comment_author_email == "author@howtrick.com") echo ' class="author-02"'; elseif ($comment->comment_author_email == "email-03@domain.tld") echo ' class="author-03"'; ?> id="comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>"> . . . </div>

 

Replace each of the email addresses with those of the various authors.
