I am parsing a Wordpress shortcode and want to use PCRE mainly with a view to finally getting my head around it.

The following shortcode is one I wish to parse:

I have a custom taxonomy called Topics.

Topics currently has three categories:

Note the count of posts for each category above.

When a user goes to a topic page, i.e. /topics/news, I want to show all posts related to news neatly, so looking to write custom markup.

To do this, I have come across taxonomy templates, but getting weird results.

For starters, I'm on /topics/news. From the above image, you can see News has 2 posts.

Here is my taxonomy-topics.php file:

I am looking for some help concerning WordPress plugin development. My plugin queries an API which requires an Authentication Token, that token is fetched via a Token delivery APi. The token expire every 3600 seconds.

I would like to store the Token, in a persistent way (for all sessions , like server side caching) and update it only when needed. Multiple Api call could be done with the same token. The problem is, if I store the token in a global variable, it gets reset each time a user reload a page which uses my plugin. https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/89263/how-to-set-and-use-global-variables-or-why-not-to-use-them-at-all

After looking for answer I found:

-WP_CACHE , but it is not persistent.

-I know I can store the token in the Database, but a Token in Database is not a use case I found elegant

-Tool such as Redis Object Cache for PHP but I found it to be really complicated , installing etc...

Is there any good practice or easy way of doing this? I only need to keep a string for an hour and access it within the plugin in PHP.

Thank you.

I'm trying to setup a single sign on system using WordPress and Azure AD B2C. I’ve got it working, however, I’m trying to find a way that would allow me to link to the registration page on Azure directly. Currently, I’m only able to generate a link to the Sign-on page. I’d like to find a way to generate a link to the Sign-up page. I’m using the Sign up and sign in User Flow, and due to the way the WordPress Plugin was developed, I can’t use more than this one user flow.

I've written a script that looks at the source of the Sign on page, grabs the sign-up link and displays it, but that approach doesn’t work.

I need to be able to display both Sign-on and Sign-up links on my website.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to where and how I could achieve this?

Thanks!

The wordpress service is running confirmed by docker service ls and the blog is up when visiting the blog url (which gets taken down after executing docker stack rm wordpress).

Once wordpress is deployed using docker stack deploy the stack looks like this:

The project: for a list of meta-data of wordpress-plugins: - approx 50 plugins are of interest! but the challenge is: i want to fetch meta-data of all the existing plugins. What i subsequently want to filter out after the fetch is - those plugins that have the newest timestamp - that are updated (most) recently. It is all aobut acutality... so the base-url to start is this:

I'm using the Siteorigin page builder's Post Loop Widget to display posts on a page. There are more than one post blocks in the page so I need no duplicated posts. There's an offset solutionm but I can't figure out, how to implement it: the widget has an input field with the label 'Additional query arguments. See query_posts.' where I can write query parameters. "offset" => 2, and offset=2 parameters doesn't work. Does anybody can figure it out, how it works? Thank you!

I'm trying to import Wordpress categories from .cvs file. I'm writing a simple app in react and I've got a function:

It used to works before maybe a year ago. now i'm trying to build new plugin using symlink. but wordpress not detecting that symlinked plugin.

i tried ln -s /plugin-source/ /site/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name i've also tried using 'sudo ln'. but it's not showing in wordpress plugin. when i copy it directly it works fine. anyone know why symlinked plugin not detected by latest wordpress? Thanks!

Update

answer below works. in my case it was osx not letting wordpress to access symlinked pluging from my desktop (not sure what's reason). so i move it to htdoc directory and it worked fine.
