  1. I'm having an issue with mysql_real_escape_string. This is used to display a custom post type (food menu items) for the WooThemes Diner theme (for WordPress). Food menu items no longer display on the Diner menu page because they are being called with mysql_real_escape_string. What is the proper way to call these items? Theme: Diner by WooThemes version 1.9.8 (now retired from active support) Affected file: admin-interface.php Lines: 111 & 118 /*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* WooThemes Admin Interface - woothemes_add_admin */ /*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ if ( ! function_exists( 'woothemes_add_admin' ) ) { function woothemes_add_admin() { global $query_string; global $current_user; $current_user_id = $current_user->user_login; $super_user = get_option( 'framework_woo_super_user' ); $themename = get_option( 'woo_themename' ); $shortname = get_option( 'woo_shortname' ); // Reset the settings, sanitizing the various requests made. // Use a SWITCH to determine which settings to update. /* Make sure we're making a request. ------------------------------------------------------------*/ if ( isset( $_REQUEST['page'] ) ) { // Sanitize page being requested. $_page = ''; $_page = mysql_real_escape_string( strtolower( trim( strip_tags( $_REQUEST['page'] ) ) ) ); // Sanitize action being requested. $_action = ''; if ( isset( $_REQUEST['woo_save'] ) ) { $_action = mysql_real_escape_string( strtolower( trim( strip_tags( $_REQUEST['woo_save'] ) ) ) ); } // End IF Statement // If the action is "reset", run the SWITCH. /* Perform settings reset. ------------------------------------------------------------*/
  2. It may be the worst question in the forum, but I really need to ask. If WordPress can do so much so easily, why do we need to learn PHP frameworks, such as Laravel, that seem so hard. What can be built with these frameworks that is in demand. Please don't be annoyed with the naivety of the question. I would really appreciate some insights regarding this matter.
  3. After having almost finished learning the "Quickstart" version of the book, I recently bought the "Quickpro". I just had a look at the index, and I'm a little bit surprised not to find any mention of CMS as a widespread application of php/mySQL. Can you recommend a book dealing with this topic? Something like "Understand WordPress php/mySQL background"
  4. I've set up a contact form on a wordpress site. On my test site (which is not localhost), it works fine. But on the client's site its not sending the emails. I did a print_r of the $mail object which amongst other things shows [ErrorInfo] => Could not instantiate mail function Does anyone know what I need to do to get it working on his site? Thanks
  5. I'm (attempting) to build a wordpress plugin, for several reasons, but I'm sure it will be a learning experience. Are there many members here who have done this and would be able to answer some of my questions? I have loads! For starters - any recommendations on resources. I've looked at Wordpress Anthology which is good but doesn't go deep enough and Professional Wordpress Plugin Development which is also good but hard to follow. Thanks for any and all comments.
  6. Please kindly note the following question: Is it possible to integrate a Wordpress blog with a PHP and MySQL site (e.g., one running an e-commerce component) such that the following is possible: 1. the Wordpress blog is log-in secured through PHP and MySQL 2. articles to the wordpress blog are sent from the PHP site to Wordpress through an admin interface (kind of like a CMS system) that the user (who doesn't know any programming) would utilize? In short, is it possible to seamlessly integrate communications between Wordpress and PHP/MySQL? If so, how could this be accomplished? Thank you very much for your time.
  7. Hey, everyone. Working on a pluginen for Wordpress right now. It will allow you to comment articles as a phpBB3 user. The problem has to do with phpBB3s native session solution. By including the file "common.php" and doing some authentification against phpBB3, you'll have support for phpBB3 sessions outside of the forum solution. The problem is that both phpBB3 and Wordpress are polluting the global namespace. Global variables such as $db, $theme, etc, is used by both system. We also have function naming conflicts. Functions are pretty manageable. Because I can run those few functions I need inside my own classes, this works fine. The problem is those global variables that crash WP when included from phpBB3. Is there a way to unset the global variables or a way to use PHPs new namespaces to solve this issue? I guess both PHP and JavaScript developers might be able to answer me that.
