Just in case your jQuery console.log() output changed in Chrome and you now have some wired context appearing, it's not your fault, but Chromes. Here're some insights.

Rarst

@toscho meaning?

toscho

@Rarst Not more than two columns.

Rarst

@toscho two columns of what? where?

toscho

in your flow chart

Rarst

well, best effort... that corner of code is nuts.

get_the_content() depends on six globals...

I really dig one line all TF authors have for their themes:

> Compatible with the most popular plugins

Aside from this being a very vague statement, they're also the guys telling that:

> Shared plugin or standards for CPT/Shortcodes will never go into my theme.

userabuser

Im not even sure I understand what that last line means... do I need to put that into google translate?

Shared plugin or standards for CPT/Shortcodes will never go into my theme. -> 共享插件或CPT /简码的标准将不会进入我的主题。

Ok that makes more sense now in Chinese...

kaiser

That's out of the discussion from Justin Tadlock, who proposed a shared shortcode & CPT standard (naming) and underlying shared plugins that the user should install.

userabuser

what does he mean by standard naming?

kaiser

Ok, actually he didn't even mean standard naming, just a shared plugin that acts as base for themes.

userabuser

hmm interesting.. shared plugin? you have linkage?

kaiser

12:51

The standard naming convention is just something I'm currently thinking about. Name a portfolio always portfolio, a slider/carousel always slider, etc

userabuser

oh.. you mean standard-commonsense convention. ;)

kaiser

yeah

userabuser

I often do as you mentioned, portfolio or cpt_portfolio, etc.

I think a prefix would help bring some order to the madness because everyone has a different idea on what they want to call a portfolio...

etc etc...

kaiser

There're some CPT names that pop up just too often. Standardizing them is imho a real need. The same goes for meta data naming. But imagine "event"...

I pinged Japh on Twitter asking if I could read or even help for their TF conventions/review book, but he said no, thanks :) ...

userabuser

hmm

Seems like they have it under control anyway... ;)

kaiser

13:01

absolutely! of course!

userabuser

I think their convention/review book reads a little something like...

this page was intentionally left blank, this page was intentionally left blank, this page was intentionally left blank, this page was intentionally left blank, this page was intentionally left blank, this page was intentionally left blank ...

...that there be the problem!

kaiser

Hey @japh this ThemeForest themes doing stripslashes deep on major global variables such as post, get, etc. Not good. http://themeforest.net/item/elegantica-responsive-business-wordpress-theme/2629870

@userabuser :D

userabuser

actually its probably not even a book, but instead a post-it note.

kaiser

@userabuser They killed (or temp. removed) that theme. But: It was up for just some days, so there's not much that seems to change.

userabuser

I saw that yest I think from Rarst... very funny, look at the sales. Nice cash.

kaiser

13:04

double that

userabuser

it had 646 sales as of yesterday that theme... prior to being removed.

kaiser

Should try to sneak some crap in there too. Guess I could write 2 such funny themes per day :P

userabuser

I'm part way through a horizontal portfolio theme which was initially a client related project that Ive been thinking of putting on TF... wonder to see the results

@kaiser you need to press on your with guidelines domain IMO.

kaiser

yeah, but need to finish other stuff first. glady some of current stuff will be used there too.

userabuser

cool... btw fix your jquery? :)

Review actions limits have been changed: after 20 reviews in a given queue, you're done for the day - if you want to continue reviewing, you can switch to a different queue. Limit is doubled for queues with large backlogs.

kaiser

@userabuser right now at it

Anyone here use GravityForms

Tom J Nowell

14:34

@Brady yes, though I 'pray' for the day a better alternative arrives

Hameedullah Khan

Hey guys! There was this wordpress plugin that re-generates all the featured images. I forgot the name and couldn't search it. I already have all the featured images assigned to posts, just need to re-generate the new sizes for the new theme.

JavaScript is a picky bitch.

Brady

@TomJNowell I'm having bad experiences with it already :(

Haha I have the company credit card to buy three SG Tab 2 10.1"

Tom J Nowell

@Brady I've noticed their js for their admin pages isn't very robust

userabuser

@Brady I do.. (GForms)

Tom J Nowell

it likes to break from version to version

Brady

@TomJNowell Well their JS fails for the password Strength on the front end causing the whole form to break

userabuser

15:48

Agree!!!

Brady

function Currency(currency){

from their JS

not namespaced....

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery(".ginput_amount, .ginput_donation_amount").bind("change", function(){
        gformFormatPricingField(this);
    });

    jQuery(".ginput_amount, .ginput_donation_amount").each(function(){
        gformFormatPricingField(this);
    });
});

says it all too. duplicating jQuery Selectors

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery(".ginput_amount, .ginput_donation_amount").bind("change", function(){
        gformFormatPricingField(this);
    }).trigger("change");
});

^^ could be changed to that

69 warnings found and 53 weak warnings

kaiser

16:26

@Brady If you're already suggesting such a change to them, then also throw in a namespace ;)

Brady

@kaiser I aint touching it...

kaiser

Somehow funny that @norcross is blogging via Tumblr...

Q: Random ID for custom post type

I am doing some testing with custom post types. Assume I have various page templates and a custom post type template that share one footer.php file. In the footer, I call do_dis_function() which is simply defined as: function do_dis_function() { global $post; the_ID(); ...

Rarst

curious - invisible output echo( '<? something ?>' );... why? thinks it's html tag?

hm, code inspection seems to think it's comment, but it's not valid HTML comment, right?

Stephen Harris

18:39

@Rarst what happens when you remove the <?s

Rarst

@StephenHarris normal echo?.. :)

that gets echoed to source but it not visible in page

Stephen Harris

@Rarst ah never mind - thought it was the same thing I came cross the other day...
