Course Information
Course Overview
Save time & effort coding WordPress themes & plugins with these already typed code snippets with explanations.
This course helps any WordPress designer and developer save time by copying and pasting WordPress code into any theme or plugin. Video lectures explain how to customize the code to make them your own.
This course will constantly evolve with new "code snippets" on everything from:
shortcodes
custom post types
manipulation of popular plugins including Contact Form 7
the customizer
create widgets
and more
This course is best for those who already know the basics of PHP, but if you are just getting into WordPress theme or plugin development, the code resources will help you add more powerful functionality to your already-existing code.
In this WordPress cookbook course, code recipes are already available for:
post and page content manipulation
automatically creating new menu locations in themes
custom post types
displaying random posts on the fly
manipulation of the contact form 7 plugin
adding a popup to your home page
generating a tag cloud from your posts or plugins
protecting your administrative back end
MySQL hacks such as automatically deactivating and RE-activating plugins without manual clicks.
and more
Please note: This course does not contain snippets for blocks or the Gutenberg system. Snippets can be used for any WordPress installation version and the code snippets work in themes and plugins regardless of whether or not your WordPress site uses blocks.
