I'm trying to make a custom API in Wordpress via register_rest_route() and some CPTs (with CPT-UI Plugin).
All ok but I'm not managing to clean the html comments [created by gutenberg's blocks] from the body text (the_content).
The best solution so far was to put sanitize_text_field( get_the_content() ).
A second solution was to put Show in Rest = false in the CPT Plugin options, which sounds a step back but it removes them.
I also tried wp_strip_all_tags() but some characters were decoded.
But I'm sure there is a better, "official", solid and future proof solution for this..?
Thanks!

If you a have a multipage website for example www.examplesite.com
and you have a few pages : www.examplesite.com/pagetwo etc...
is it possible to remove the /pagetwo from the searchbar? or present this in a cooler way. I suppose www.examplesite.com/2 is more minimal, but is there any way to completely remove this?
Many Thanks

You can manipulate the state of the URL via JS like this:
history.pushState("object or string", "Title", "/");
Read more here: http://spoiledmilk.com/blog/html5-changing-the-browser-url-without-refreshing-page/
In the variation above, the last bit ("/") says push the URL back to site root.
But I'd recommend asking why you want to do this and if it's the best solution. You could easily create bad user experiences and prevent people from bookmarking or sharing the content they intend to.
My extension renders additional links on a page (that is adds some <a href='...'>...</a> to the page text (in HtmlPageLinkRendererEnd hook)).
See small arrows in https://withoutvowels.org/wiki/Tanakh:Genesis_1:1 for an example. The arrows are automatically added by my extension (sorry, at the time of writing this the source code is not yet released).
The problem is that red/blue ("new") status is not updated for links which I add.
Please explain how to make Wikipedia to update color of my links as appropriate together with regular [[...]] MediaWiki links.
My current workaround is to run php maintenance/update.php. It is a very bad workaround. How to do it better?
Normally you'd use LinkRenderer to create the links and LinkBatch to make the page existence check efficient (you don't want a separate SQL query for each link). You can't really do that in HtmlPageLinkRendererEnd since you only learn about the links one by one.
The way the parser deals with this is that it replaces links with a placeholder and collects them in a list, then after parsing is mostly done it looks them all up at once and then switches the placeholders with the rendered links. You can probably hook into somthing that happens between the two (e.g. ParserAfterParse), get the list of links from the parser and use them to build a list of your own links.
With valuable help of Wikitech-l mailing list, I found a solution.
The solution is to use ParserAfterTidy hook.
public static function onParserAfterTidy( &$parser, &$text ) {
# ...
$parserOutput = $parser->getOutput();
foreach($parserOutput->getLinks() as ...) {
# ...
$parserOutput->addLink( Title::newFromDBkey(...) );
}
}
In Objective C to build a Mac OSX (Cocoa) application, I'm using the native Webkit widget to display local files with the file:// URL, pulling from this folder:
MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/lang/en/html
This is all well and good until I start to need a German version. That means I have to copy en/html as de/html, then have someone replace the wording in the HTML (and some in the Javascript (like with modal dialogs)) with German phrasing. That's quite a lot of work!
Okay, that might seem doable until this creates a headache where I have to constantly maintain multiple versions of the html folder for each of the languages I need to support.
Then the thought came to me...
Why not just replace the phrasing with template tags like %CONTINUE%
and then, before the page is rendered, intercept it and swap it out
with strings pulled from a language plist file?
Through some API with this widget, is it possible to intercept HTML before it is rendered and replace text?
If it is possible, would it be noticeably slow such that it wouldn't be worth it?
Or, do you recommend I do a strategy where I build a generator that I keep on my workstation which builds each of the HTML folders for me from a main template, and then I deploy those already completed with my setup application once I determine the user's language from the setup application?
Through a lot of experimentation, I found an ugly way to do templating. Like I said, it's not desirable and has some side effects:
You'll see a flash on the first window load. On first load of the application window that has the WebKit widget, you'll want to hide the window until the second time the page content is displayed. I guess you'll have to use a property for that.
When you navigate, each page loads twice. It's almost not noticeable, but not good enough for good development.
I found an odd quirk with Bootstrap CSS where it made my table grid rows very large and didn't apply CSS properly for some strange reason. I might be able to tweak the CSS to fix that.
Unfortunately, I found no other event I could intercept on this except didFinishLoadForFrame. However, by then, the page has already downloaded and rendered at least once for a microsecond. It would be great to intercept some event before then, where I have the full HTML, and do the swap there before display. I didn't find such an event. However, if someone finds such an event -- that would probably make this a great templating solution.
- (void)webView:(WebView *)sender didFinishLoadForFrame:(WebFrame *)frame
{
DOMHTMLElement * htmlNode =
(DOMHTMLElement *) [[[frame DOMDocument] getElementsByTagName: #"html"] item: 0];
NSString *s = [htmlNode outerHTML];
if ([s containsString:#"<!-- processed -->"]) {
return;
}
NSURL *oBaseURL = [[[frame dataSource] request] URL];
s = [s stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"%EXAMPLE%" withString:#"ZZZ"];
s = [s stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"</head>" withString:#"<!-- processed -->\n</head>"];
[frame loadHTMLString:s baseURL:oBaseURL];
}
The above will look at HTML that contains %EXAMPLE% and replace it with ZZZ.
In the end, I realized that this is inefficient because of page flash, and, on long bits of text that need a lot of replacing, may have some quite noticeable delay. The better way is to create a compile time generator. This would be to make one HTML folder with %PARAMETERIZED_TAGS% inside instead of English text. Then, create a "Run Script" in your "Build Phase" that runs some program/script you create in whatever language you want that generates each HTML folder from all the available lang-XX.plist files you have in a directory, where XX is a language code like 'en', 'de', etc. It reads the HTML file, finds the parameterized tag match in the lang-XX.plist file, and replaces that text with the text for that language. That way, after compilation, you have several HTML folders for each language, already using your translated strings. This is efficient because then it allows you to have one single HTML folder where you handle your code, and don't have to do the extremely tedious process of creating each HTML folder in each language, nor have to maintain that mess. The compile time generator would do that for you. However -- you'll have to build that compile time generator.
i created a site, And added pages to my site, since page size exceeds i need to create pagination in html i have created this method
123
in this way i created
Problem is when i add new page i need to replace all code again like this
1234
ever time when i add new page i need to replace all code is ther a way to do this without PHP
Can sombody help me any idea to do this in html
Do not re-invent the wheel. Use datatables, they provide sorting, pagination (client side and server side), export and a number of additional features.
http://datatables.net/
Include the files and just add this.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable();
} );
This is a very basic and good example, you should go for it.
http://datatables.net/examples/data_sources/dom.html
This cannot be done purely in HTML. You must use something like PHP, or you could use Javascript.
You can make just one HTML file called "Pagination.html" include all your links there and then include that Pagination on every page using one of the following methods.
You can use Javascript: javascript
Or you can use html5: html5
Or there are also, others solutions to solve your problem like this: other
You better use some Javascript oriented solution, html5 support for including files still very poor.
unfortunately, this won't be possible without using some other technology that is not HTML. You can dynamically generate pages using javascript (JS), PHP or other technology, but not just raw HTML.
You can name your pages something like:
page_1.html
page_2.html
and then whichever editor you are using probably has a search & replace function, so you could use that to speed up things. I hope this helps.
Currently in a wordpress template, if you use the code the_excerpt() it will display the first 55 words of a post and strips all html from the post.
I need to include <a href... tags in the excerpt so that links are still visible.
Existing methods include:
Hacking the wordpress core - definitely not an option.
using a plugin - don't want to use, it's dependent on the developer keeping the plugin up to date
writing code within functions.php to re-write the excerpt filter. - I'd prefer not to use this as it might have to be changed in future versions of WP
Is there a filter hook or other known method to include html easily without hacks?
All help is appreciated!
Cheers.
As I see it, you can only use method 2 and 3; both of them can be updated via WordPress' back-end with virtually no programming required which is ideal if you're going to be installing and using them on client sites.
Here's a tutorial with working code for method 3 -- http://aaronrussell.co.uk/legacy/improving-wordpress-the_excerpt/ and here's a plugin to use method 2 -- http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/
I use the following statement sometimes to get the first 55 words of a post content.
implode(' ', array_slice(explode(' ', get_the_content()), 0, 55));
