    Fantastic content. I'd say your channel pushed me to look into code more. I have no idea why I was avoiding code before but your channel gave me the comfort to be able to go under the hood for Wordpress and Plugins. Awesome Work!

    Another great video Paul - informative, relevant and well pitched - thank you! I'd only just heard of Code Snippets but I definitely prefer that method already; being able to organise snippets in the admin area, export/import just makes a lot of sense. I never knew that Custom Plugins could be so basic - nice! One last point, you mentioned about maybe not wanting to install plugins where that can be avoided and I'd be interested in your thoughts on how you balance risk/reward when installing plugins; i.e. how do you assess whether a plugin is a risk or resource burden to a website (other than the obvious installs count and rating stats). For example, if a plugin has not been updated for say 6 months should I be getting concerned about security? Maybe you have a video covering this already... 😆

    Thank you for the great videos you always make that are clear and functional. I am a kind of newbie to WordPress and found it really amazing with all the goodies available, epecially Elementor, Tagdiv, Astra and many many great add ons. I ran into a need to display on a sidebar the tags that only belong to a category or a set of categories. e.g., sidebar will display first the relevant category(s) that the post belongs to, then underneath it, another block that should display the relevant tags. With the little knowledge knowledge I have, I am stuck! I attempted to try here and there but nothing workde for me. With your obvious vast experience, what is the best way to get this achieved?

    WOOT! Thanks, Paul. Excellent video, as always.
    Just one comment...being old school, I've always been leery of editing a file directly inside of my cPanel. In the dialup days, if you lost the connection you could get hosed easily. I've always used Transmit (Mac), Coda2 (Mac) or Filezilla (PC) to download/upload a file & work with it locally. Basically the same reasoning for never working in the theme files directly.

    • @WPTuts
      @WPTuts  4 роки тому +1

      I hear you Jim. There is absolutely nothing wrong with going old-school and using an FTP client. It was the way I worked for many, many years. Now, I just tend to use the file manager in my hosting panel for speed and ease.
      For larger edits, I would generally work offline and just copy the code over when ready.

    This just opened a doorway for me to endless possibilities, thanks.
    I do need one extra little bit of help, that being the code needed to put into the plugin to do the following:
    I'm using Astra theme (free basic) + woocommerce + NP Quote Request WooCommerce (to hide prices/cart & make RFQ list) + WooCommerce Custom Product Addons (Free) (to add product options and customer special instructions per product).
    I'm trying to find a way to force the product attribute 'term description' to display when the attribute is selected on the front end , and remains visible when going to cart, etc.
    I noticed below the term description it says "The description is not prominent by default; however, some themes may show it."
    Is there a work around to make this able to be displayed after the attribute is selected?

    • @WPTuts
      @WPTuts  4 роки тому

      Hmm, I've not tried anything with Recaptcha I'm afraid.
      I would say, that if you can assign a function hook to it, then you should be able to create a really simple plugin to manage it.

      Absolutely, it's a nifty plugin that most users should find a lot less intimidating over the other methods. But, it is still a reliance on another plugin. From experience, there is a little pushback from many about installing plugins for simple things.
      So, I've tried to cover all bases and let the end-user choose their preference. :0)

    when you use a child theme , do you still get the security updates etc that are being instaslled on the parent theme? always have a problem working out the logic of a child theme if the updates dont effect the child files. cheers

    • @WPTuts
      @WPTuts  3 роки тому

      Yes you do. The child theme is basically there to augment the parent theme and any changes you make to the child theme override the parent theme settings. Otherwise, things will default to the parent theme.
      I hope that makes sense?
