The Display Posts Shortcode plugin lets you display a list of posts based on any criteria. By default it displays titles only. The example below makes it display the post’s title and full content.
My favorite new feature in Advanced Custom Fields 5.9 is support for InnerBlocks. This allows you to insert any block (core or custom) inside your ACF block. Rather than having to create your own fields for Title, Content, and Button in your custom block, you can simply insert Table of Contents When registering your ACF block, include In your template partial for the block, include It’s helpful to fill the InnerBlocks field with default content so the block looks correct when first inserted. We’re building a new site for Nice Kicks, and they often need to highlight the release date and details for new sneakers. We built a Release Info block that uses InnerBlocks for the content area. Rather than just having an empty white box when they first insert the block, we pre-populate it with default content using a block template. Inside the block’s template file, create a In the above example we set the starting content for the block. If you were to publish the post without changing the text, the default content would appear in the blocks. Alternatively, you can use the I had two issues with placeholders, which is why I used default content instead: To use placeholders with the above example, change the And this was the result: You can limit which blocks can be inserted into your InnerBlocks field using the Using the example above, I can limit the Release Info block to only include the heading and paragraph blocks: You can also limit the flexibility by locking the template. Adding Adding I recently built an Icon Heading block. The icon can be selected in the block settings sidebar using a dynamic dropdown field. I used InnerBlocks for the heading itself so it would have all the standard options for customizing the heading (change block style, change heading type to h3). I used While I try to support all the core blocks in the themes I build, sometimes it makes sense to remove a few. Typically it’s because I built a custom block that’s similar to a core block while addressing the design and functional requirements of the theme. Most of my themes include a “Content and Image” block that’s similar to the “Media & Text” block but it uses the theme’s grid layout. Sometimes I’ll unregister the “Search” block and create my own that uses the You can use the I also enqueue any custom fonts used on the frontend so I can also use them in the editor styles. Now that you’ve created an editor.js file and enqueued it into the block editor, you can use Here’s a list of all the core block types. How often do you write My I was looking to see which attributes are included in the This displayed all the gallery block information on the right side of the screen: I include this in a mu-plugin locally so it only runs in my development environment, but you could also add it to a plugin or your theme’s functions.php file. I’m searching for a WordPress Developer to help us build custom WordPress themes and support our clients. This is the perfect role for a WordPress developer with limited freelance work experience. In addition to mastering our development approach, you’ll learn our sales process, participate in client calls, and receive personal coaching from me. I’ll consider both part-time and full-time applicants, and we’d start working together in August or September. We are a collective of independent designers and developers working together to help publishers grow and thrive. We’re currently a team of four: two designers (Duane Smith and Andrew Pautler) and two developers (myself and Richard Buff). We build custom WordPress themes focused on performance, user experience, accessibility, scalability, and SEO. We do this to help publishers express their brand, grow their audience, and thrive in their marketplace. If this opportunity sounds interesting to you, then please submit an application by July 11th. Please clearly include the following in your cover letter: Note: The application period is now over. A custom honeypot is a simple and effective way to eliminate spam. If a hidden field in your form is filled in, you can be fairly confident the submission is spam. WPForms does include a built-in honeypot, but now that the plugin is used on millions of sites, most spam bots have been updated to identify and skip the WPForms field with a name of Your custom honeypot is different. It’s unique to your form and looks like any other field to a bot. I have pretty much eliminated spam on my contact form with a custom honeypot. First, come up with a unique CSS class name you’ll use to identify your honeypot field. Make it something unique to your site (ie: not Create a field in your form and add your custom class to it. Add the following code to your theme’s functions.php file or a Core Functionality plugin. If this field is ever filled in, the submission will be marked as spam and have a honeypot message of “[Custom honeypot]”. Make sure you update the You can also enable logging so you can see if the honeypot is working. Every time a spam entry is submitted, this will create a post in the wpforms_log post type with the honeypot message and the full submission. I recommend only logging this data temporarily because you don’t want to fill up your database with a bunch of unimportant spam messages. First, update the Use this code to make the WPForms Log post type visible. You can then access it in WPForms > Logs. SpinupWP is a modern cloud-based server control panel. It gives you the features of a managed WordPress host on your own low-cost and scalable Digital Ocean servers. It’s a great choice for production sites, and I host many of my personal sites there. It also makes an excellent development environment. My development server requirements are: I’m currently using a $15/month droplet with 3GB of memory and 60GB of storage. When you add in the $9/month for SpinupWP, my total hosting bill of $24/month is less than most managed WordPress hosts for a single site. If you sign up for SpinupWP using the link below, you’ll get a $50 credit added to your account after 30 days. I use git to version control the custom themes I develop. When I’m ready to push my local changes to the server, I type For my clients hosted with WPEngine or BigScoots, I use their built-in staging environments and git-based deployment. For more information, see my articles on git for WPEngine and git for BigScoots. If a client is hosted elsewhere, I use SpinupWP to replicate the same git push development workflow and features. Once you have your SpinupWP server setup, it’s easy to add new sites. I have a domain I use for development sites, with each site being setup as a subdomain. Log into the SpinupWP Dashboard and click the “New Site” button. Create a fresh WordPress install (here’s a guide). Install WP Migrate DB Pro along with the Media and Theme & Plugin addons on the production site and the new development site. Pull a copy of the database, media, themes, and plugins to your dev server. Alternatively, you can copy the site files over via SSH. In your local environment, add the remote: A lot of the sites I build have massive uploads directories. To save local hard drive space and simplify database syncing, I don’t pull any of the media down locally. I’ll use Migrate DB Pro to pull down a local copy of the database, theme and plugins. I’ll then install BE Media from Production and use it to source media from the development server. You can install and set it up with wp cli: One of the first things I do when building a new theme is determine all the required image sizes. After adding the relevant Likewise, if I need to upload new images, I push the database to staging, upload the image on staging, then pull a fresh copy of the database locally. The new NexRep website is built completely with the Gutenberg block editor. We’ve built dozens of WordPress sites just like NexRep that rely on the block editor for rich, engaging landing pages that are easily maintained by non-technical editors with a consistent style guide. These are my tips for success with Gutenberg theme development. Table of Contents If you are working with a designer, make sure they are familiar with the block editor and use an atomic design approach. We start with the atoms of our style guide – headings, paragraph, link, and button. These are then built into molecules, like a Post Summary (post title, category, excerpt). These are then built into organisms, like a Post Listing (section header, 3 column grid of posts). The launch of Gutenberg was the final push I needed to no longer work with client-provided designs. Every website I build is now designed by my two design partners, Duane Smith and Andrew Pautler, who have a deep understanding of the Gutenberg block editor. An atomic design approach empowers content creators with the full power of the Gutenberg block editor, rather than fighting against it and trying to maintain an old template-based design approach. To ensure the best content editing experience, the backend editor should match the frontend as closely as possible. Here’s what the block editor looks like for the page shown in the first screenshot. Use an editor stylesheet to load a separate CSS file in the editor with your unique block styles. Create an You can use the editor font sizes feature to define different font size options for paragraph text. The defaults are Small, Normal, and Large, but you can load any number you’d like. SASS comes in handy here. Rather than trying to maintain two separate stylesheets, you can break your main stylesheet into SASS partials and build both stylesheets with the relevant partials. When you update a style that applies to the block editor, it automatically updates both style.css and editor-style.css. Take a look at my starter themes for examples of how I structure my stylesheets. You should also update the Gutenberg color palette to use your theme colors. We use the color options for changing button colors and for adding background color to full width sections. We’ll typically have two versions for each color: the normal (darker) version which will have white text, and a lighter version that will use the standard text color. If you use the In some instances, you may want to load scripts or styles that are not modified by WordPress. You can use the On the NexRep site, we’re loading a stylesheet to change the content area width based on the selected page layout (ex: Full Width Content vs Content Sidebar). You can add style variations to core blocks using block styles. On the NexRep site, we have two button styles (Default and Feature), and have removed unnecessary block styles from the separator and quote blocks. You can also remove core blocks using On NexRep, we have custom blocks that are similar to the core Media & Text, Cover, and Latest Posts blocks. I’m a huge fan of Advanced Custom Fields. We use it on every website for custom blocks, site options, term meta, and more. One of the most common questions I’m asked by WordPress developers exploring Gutenberg is whether they need to build custom blocks natively with React or use a plugin like ACF. I personally think of it along the same lines as custom metaboxes. For single use blocks built for a specific website, it makes sense to use a tool like ACF for rapid development. If you plan to distribute your block publicly in a plugin, you’ll want to build it with React so there isn’t a dependency on another plugin. Most of the websites we build include 10-20 custom blocks. The NexRep site included these custom blocks: Try to leverage core blocks as much as possible, and keep your custom blocks simple. In the quick video below, you’ll see how we use the Group block for the full width section with Heading and Icon Links block inside. The final step to a successful project is training the client so they are comfortable with the new theme. This is especially important when it comes to the block editor as this is likely the first time the client has interacted with it. We provide WP101 video tutorials to all of our clients. On websites like NexRep that include a fairly complex design with custom blocks, we record custom videos to include alongside the standard WordPress videos. Almost all of our food blogger and publisher clients use email optins to encourage readers to join their email newsletter. We often customize the title and description of the form based on the current post’s category. For instance, the newsletter signup form in the Beauty category might look like: While we could build a separate form for every category, a simpler approach is to create a single form and use category metadata to override the default title and description for certain categories. Go to WPForms > Add New and create your newsletter signup form. Include the standard title and description that’s applicable site-wide. If the category does not have a specific title or description set, it will use whatever you have set here. Using Advanced Custom Fields, create a metabox that appears on the Edit Category screen allowing editors to change the Optin Title and Optin Description. I’m using Finally, we can add the following code to change the form’s title and description. This code can go in your theme’s functions.php file or a core functionality plugin. Make sure you change Many of our food blogger clients are hosted with Big Scoots, a popular managed WordPress host. Their portal includes one-click push between your production and staging environments, which is great for testing code changes before deploying on your production site. With a bit of work you can create a git-based deployment workflow similar to WPEngine. I’ve also written a similar article for using git with SpinupWP. If everything below looks too technical, I highly recommend using the WP Pusher plugin. It’s incredibly easy to use, free for public repos, and reasonably priced for private repos. We use WP Pusher for any clients not hosted with Big Scoots or WPEngine. Open a support ticket requesting git to be setup on the server and include your public key. They will respond back confirming it has been installed and provide you with SSH access to the server. Open Terminal and use ssh to connect to your server ( We’re going to set up a bare git repository in the site directory. We want to create it in By keeping it outside the public directory we won’t have any issues with the “Push Live to Staging” or “Push Staging to Live” features – they move the contents of the public directory. You can use the exact same approach outlined above to setup git on staging. If you haven’t created a staging environment yet, log into the BigScoots Portal, go to your site, and click “Create Staging”. Once the staging site has been created, ssh into the server and navigate to the staging site’s directory. Using the clientname.com example above, the staging environment would be named Once you have everything setup on the server, go back to your local environment and add the staging remote The custom WordPress themes we build use brand colors for certain design elements and the Gutenberg color palette. We usually have three versions of each color: the main color, and lighter/darker versions for hover effects. We’ll often auto-generate the lighter/darker versions, but sometimes we need to specify a custom color. In the past I’ve added all of the colors as their own independent variables: I’ve recently shifted to using a custom SASS function, Inside my theme I define a map of The list of 6 variables above has been reduce to: And here’s my custom If you’d like to build your own SASS functions, take a look at the @function documentation.<InnerBlocks /> and use the block editor to build the content inside the block.How to use InnerBlocks
