@hijiri — Great work! ??

@hijiri — Awesome!

I use your plugin on nearly every site I build. It’s great to hear the next update will be (in my opinion) even better still!

I think the challenge will dealing with child pages. Child pages should probably be allowed to be re-ordered within their parent only. And dragging a parent page should move all it’s child pages with it.

Thanks ??

@hijiri — Yes, but changing the “order” attribute is a LOT slower than drag and drop.
I think drag and drop to order pages would be really great!

@hijiri — is there any reason why your plugin works on posts and custom posts but not pages?

In my particular use case I’m getting a really decent perf increase from W3 Total Cache with a single mfunc use that updates a rating/counter thing on each page.

If you dig up any docs on mfunc, Total Cache, and the WP stack, let me know!

Cheers

For complicated stuff I’d try to just call a single self-contained function — <!-- mfunc my_sweet_function(); --> etc… — or perhaps have an include to a whole bunch of code. At least that way I only have one block of code to maintain, even if I have to reference it twice.

The thing that I’m not stoked with is that when caching is OFF your code within the mfunc conditionals is treated by the browser as a normal old HTML comment, so anyone can click “view source” and see your php. Not so cool. So calling a function in there gives a degree of privacy too.

I’ll admit that I didn’t even consider the difference the mfunc environment might make. I have no idea of the limitations.

@benz001
Put your function inside the conditionals, like so:

<!-- mfunc echo "This happens when caching ON"; --><?php
    echo "This happens when caching OFF";
?><!-- /mfunc -->

Most helpful!

I’m using this to remove some default columns from the edit posts screen.

function my_columns_filter( $columns ) {
    unset($columns['author']);
    unset($columns['tags']);
    unset($columns['categories']);
    unset($columns['tags']);
    unset($columns['comments']);
    return $columns;
}
add_filter( 'manage_edit-post_columns', 'my_columns_filter', 10, 1 );

You can use this with custom post types by adjusting the filter like so:
manage_edit-%customposttype%_columns

Sounds good, Japh! Joined.
