Should wp_list_pages() output classes like "current_page_ancestor" and "current_page_parent" by default? I'm getting a menu, but no classes at all. Could be a bug?

So, for under-the-hood API stuff?

[ I'm just wondering the kinds of things it might be used for ]

Backbone was recently added to core. Can anyone explain why we'd need that in WordPress?

To setup a proxy pass / mask situation, I just need to 1) setup the hosts directive, and 2) change the WP home_url, right? [ using wp multisite ]

Right. Ok, I'll do that. Thanks Rarst and anu.

@Rarst My site will just be another blog in the multisite

@anu interesting

I want to use WordPress for my non-blog site, and have it at accessed at a different url

I'm at a university. We've got a large no. of blogs, all on a blog server of some kind

Is this even possible?

But when people access the site, I want them to access it via: example.com/faculty/myblog

I want to have WP installed on our blog server: distance.example.com/myblog

Can I have my WordPress site installed in one place and accessed at a url somewhere else?

Hey all, quick question about redirecting

Perfect. Thanks!

@toscho but if I need to have something enabled?

Having the box checked by default works fine, but that value doesn't get sent to the database until the user clicks save on my Theme Options page

How can I get a default Theme Option to the database? I've got a checkbox that I want to be checked by default

so thanks for the nudge in the right direction!

@AahanKrish adding a class to the comment list <li>'s was a simple as putting it into the comment_class => comment_class('clearfix')

@AahanKrish Great Aahan. Thanks!

Is there a way add this class via a filter?

My li's simply aren't clearing their floats, and I want to add a class of 'clearfix' to each of them.

'Cause it's a rabbit's hole.

Hey all — I want to modify the comment form, without going down the rabbit's hole of the comment form.

@StephenHarris Didn't think so =)

wp_list_pluck(wp_list_pages) =)

Trying to return the top-most page in a list of hierarchal pages. Can I use wp_list_pluck and wp_list_pages together?

@StephenHarris Thanks for your help with this yesterday too: wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/56088/… I left work just as you posted it and never got back to it last night. Thanks a million.

@StephenHarris I've been seeing it around a fair bit lately and wondered what it was up to. If I used it, I certainly wouldn't' have know why =) I think its a fairly basic/essential thing that I'm missing though

Know of a basic "$post for Beginners" ?

ack. It's always both

EXTREMELY basic question.....almost embarrassed to even ask this....but anyway.....here goes. Lots of functions use "global $post". Is this saying, "There's a global variable out there, outside of this function called $post, go get that and we'll use it." or is it saying, "Lets create a global called $post" ?

I'm using wp_list_pages to give me a list of my custom posts. How can I 'inject' taxonomy terms into the li classes? <li class="{tax-term}"> ?

Alright, that's a good bit to digest for the afternoon

I know, I know

[ sadly ]

[ that plugin actually only works for posts ]

aah

Something like single-pedagogy.php, or topics-pedagogy.php, etc

Post: Pedagogy

Custom Post Type: Topics

@StephenHarris I can't see a way to theme an individual custom post then

@TomJNowell HAHA!

@StephenHarris Knowing extremely little about how to fix this, it seems to me like just swapping 'post' for 'post' || 'capability_type' => 'post' might do the trick

Thanks.

@StephenHarris Right. Should have known. That's precisely why that custom post type template plugin exists.

@StephenHarris Gotcha. So even when I have my cpt set to have capability => page, it won't give me a template dropdown?
