In my opinion, this question is an exact duplicate. Are the answers to X still valid?, is not a good question here, because it would result in many, many duplicates. — toscho ♦ 1 min ago
@all Your opinion on my comment?
 
Yes agreed. It appeals for discussion so may be good fit for meta or chat
That will also encourage new uptodate answers to old questions..

Hi all
Can anyone find out the problem of this issue stackoverflow.com/questions/39074764/… ?

@toscho I would agree with that - it should be up to them to test if the solutions are valid - at which point if all the solutions are no longer valid for whatever reason they would open a new question pointing that out. What we then do with the outdated question is then up for debate.
 
Yeah, we could then close the old question as a duplicate of the new one. But normally, the old question should just get a new answer.
 
I feel like that would require attention being brought to the old question in some way or another to point out the solutions aren't valid ( bounty maybe? )
Maybe if it's obvious we could put a WP Version on it "Valid through this version" but that would probably rarely be obvious
 
There is a special bounty reason: Current answers are outdated
 
That's preferable but kind of sucks for low rep users.
That's probably the best solution though to avoid tons of duplicates and keeping track of what works and what doesn't.
 
you need just 75 rep to start a bounty. That's not much.

It's not much but it inevitably costs 50 for something might be answered for free or even earn you rep from upvotes.
It's almost like being penalized for realizing that an answer is outdated and wanting a up to date solution.
Anyway, all that in consideration I think the bounty is best for organizational purposes so future duplicates should be directed to the original.
 
Also, older questions are more often found (backlinks, search engines), so this is the best place for helpful answers.

Anyone ever deal with a Layer7 setup for WordPress and HAProxy?

Is there a manage_posts_columns hook for all post types?
 
I was going to ask about cookies and sticky sessions. I think I've got it figured out now.
@Howdy_McGee I believe you can think of it like: manage_{$post_type}_posts_columns. Not 100% certain on that though. It's been a while since I've used those hooks.
@Howdy_McGee I'm also not 100% sure if there's an "official wordpress" hook reference, but I've always just used List of all WordPress hooks.
 
There is that but then I would need to get all the available public post types and add all the hooks. I was hoping for something more general but looking at get_columns I don't think there's a ton of options.
Thanks though! I always forget that website exists - super useful.
 
@Howdy_McGee Why don't you just use: get_post_types( array( 'public' => true ) ); and then just loop through them to add your hooks? Pretty simple to do.
 
5:00 PM
I think it's probably too much for the answer I'm creating. I'll just keep it simple and straight to the point since there's not a more general hook.
 
@Howdy_McGee My method is the same exact end result as a "generic hook".
Ultimately still using ONE callback function (if desired) for multiple hooks.
But you said you wanted public post types. So even if there was a single general hook to use, would it apply to ALL post types? Public or private?
My method I presented to you is simple and it does what you need.
