Check out Otto’s WordPress Settings API Tutorial

But Right now I just can not find any docs on register_settings to write plugins. Guess a good plugin author would use that activation function still, right?
And More importantly, I can set and reset the favicon etc. That bit is done. Now I want to have the option of uploading an image. The validation of the image is for later (that its a png or an ico file, is a certain size etc). But I have no clue as to HOW to upload images and store them through a plugin’s options page.

Any hints on that? Thanks either way.

P.S. I have also made bare-bones plugin that replaces the site title from text to an image (stole the code from kubrick, which injects css into the main page ), so yea, its a steep learning curve here

Here’s my two-second “How to write plugins” class: learn about add_action and add_filter

In your case (just off the top of my head) I think you want to do something like this:

add_action( 'wp-head', 'add_custom_favicon');

function add_custom_favicon() {
    // echo the favicon HTML line here
}

But your website looks like a great hub of info for me. Thanks for putting such stuff up. From Pakistan, peace out.

God bless and good luck,

Anyway, my comment was: what would help even more fellow hackers would be to mention which constants were designed to be user defined in wp-config.php

True. I didn’t go full boat with this, but there are definitely times when I’m trying to remember if such and such constant exists, or what the name is. This list will help jog my memory — at least let me know what to look for.

Hey, this is actually a comment for the next post about constant, but… you forgot to define a fun quizz for this post so nobody can comment because there’s no question to answer and yet the plugin won’t let any comment make it through Idea for improvement here?

Anyway, my comment was: what would help even more fellow hackers would be to mention which constants were designed to be user defined in wp-config.php (ie constants enclosed in a “if !defined then define”)
