Couple week ago I was sick. So I didn’t train for roughly 2 weeks. Yesterday I start my training again, and I regret my decision to stop.
Calluses I develop (painfully) on my palm nearly gone. I lost my grip. I can’t “lift” as much. My stamina drops.
I could blame it to the flu virus. But I simply stop too long.
I’m not actually a fan of themes with tons of design options. I think as a designer, it’s our job to design theme.
However, it’s not always a bad idea to let user express their creativity.
Last weekend, I create another theme. Nevertheless, a simple one with classic design. And this time I create several color options for it. Usually I prefer “refresh” transport method for my themes, because it’s works, easier to code (and maintain in the future). But because this is a simple theme, I get it done relatively quickly. So I decide to “play” and use “postMessage” transport method for the color options.
There are problems I found when implementing this, and I want to share my solution.
Here’s the theme, you can download and check the source code:

That was actually a question by a fellow WordPress designer/developer when he realized his code didn’t work (I’ll explain the problem below).
It’s actually a simple mistake and can be avoided if we use “refresh” transport method when creating customizer option. But I do understand that “postMessage” transport method is better (but needed more code).
So here’s a little example. I create a twentyfifteen child theme with customizer setting to hide/show header area. Read More How to use Customize API “postMessage” Method to Hide/Show Element
In the last 30 days. I was sick 3 times. I got a flu and terrible headache just a few days ago. Actually I’m still coughing and sneezing a lot. I wonder if I do something wrong in my training.

If you ever try to create an “Admin Notice” on plugin activation. You’ll know that using admin_notices action inside your “activation hook function” will not work. But there’s a workaround for that. Read More How to Create Admin Notice On Plugin Activation
It’s very easy to create settings page in WordPress. But sometimes in our plugin we only need a single/few options. And creating dedicated settings page just for this option is overkill.
That’s what I think when I write “f(x) Private Site” Plugin yesterday. You can download the plugin for a full code example:
When it make sense, we can add settings to WordPress default settings page such as “General Settings”, Writing Settings”, “Reading Settings”, etc. And this is how to do that. Read More How to Add Settings Section in WordPress Default Settings
