@ozh:
I will do my best soon, if no one fixed it yet.

@snih:
i didn’t notice it on the first time, to fix this problem you have to override admin area css, and it can’t be set as inline style because “before” is a pseudo-class and it’s not possible to create inline styles for it.

so, a temporary solution is to hook on “admin_head” action , by adding the following in your theme “functions.php” file

add_action('admin_head', 'custom_css');

function custom_css() {
  echo '<style>
    div.wp-menu-image:before  {
      padding:4px 0 !important;
    }
  </style>';
}

you can change 4px to any value between 0-7 that you see it fits well with you ??

hope this help!

@spherical
that’s weird ! , i got the class name from the native wordpress styling for menu items
if you have a normal dashboard without Ozh plugin and inspected the menu items code you will find that wordpress uses class “dashicons-before” !

hello all

this is a temporary solution that will display the new Dashicons set instead of empty icons

– open the plugin directory and edit the file in that path inc/core.php , starting from line 85 you will find this part of code

if ( isset($item[6]) && ! empty($item[6]) ) {
			if ( 'none' === $item[6] || 'div' === $item[6] )
				$img = '<div '.$imgstyle.' class="wp-menu-image"><br /></div>';
			else
				$img = '<img '.$imgstyle.' class="wp-menu-image" src="' . $item[6] . '" alt="" />';
		}

just replace it with the following code

if ( isset($item[6]) && ! empty($item[6]) ) {
			preg_match('/^dashicons/', $item[6], $matches);
			if ( 'none' === $item[6] || 'div' === $item[6] )
				$img = '<div '.$imgstyle.' class="wp-menu-image"><br /></div>';
			elseif (!empty($matches))
				$img = '<div '.$imgstyle.' class="wp-menu-image dashicons-before '.$item[6].'"><br /></div>';
			else
				$img = '<img '.$imgstyle.' class="wp-menu-image" src="' . $item[6] . '" alt="" />';
		}

i tried to keep the orginal code of the plugin away of modifications , i just added a new condition that look for “dashicons” and then it will alter the div classes with the needed icon class

hope this help

i don’t know if you are still need the solution , it’s 2 months ago ??

but i were facing same problem and found that the wordpress reserve the variable ( name ) , check -> Reserved Terms

so the solution is hard-code one you have to change the code on the plugin files of
$_REQUEST[name] to another name that not reserved by wordpress like $_REQUEST[cname]
and ofcourse use this new name on your query

@michaelh

Thanks for your attention .. but this plug wasnt to get what i mean

@ Scribu

Thanks for your reply .. it’s similar to vtxyzzy’s idea

i asked PHP Web Developer .. his name is Burak Guzel [phpandstuff.com]

and he helped me that i can make index(non-unique) to the field with a specific length even it’s type is TEXT

e.g. i will index the first 20 charachters from this field
–>
alter table wp_postmeta ADD INDEX ( meta_value ( 20 ) )

Thanks 4 All

it’s right
but is there any simpler solution ?
