Custom php snippets?

Support

hello.

how hard would be for me to add a php snippet to a homepage, and to an other page that I will add?

asking because my game’‘s devs are thinking about switching our horrible stack to classicPress.

any info would be appreciated.

Basically you can. Either with a plugin with your snippet to control where it executed, how, etc OR directly in the page template code I think.

What you could do with WP is doable in CP.

I’d want 2 snippets, one for NTM manuals that will do some JSON work and the other for online players in homepage so 2 different snippets in 2 different locations.

You can modify page templates in theme then.

Best way is put functions in functions.php of theme and create templates for such pages where you call such functions.

Inserting a php snippet can be done in the following ways:

  • custom plugin
  • mu plugins
  • wordpress theme functions.php

here is a beginner’s video on that: https://youtu.be/HXTclnBfhuA?si=xlJzou_m75t-VQPH

You might want to explore the WordPress codex for its custom functions that you may need. For page specific snippets you can have a look at is_page() – Function | Developer.WordPress.org

sadly my organization is a bit wary if comes to CP and we’re going back and forth but I got most voting members on my side.
