Plugin deactivate options
Working with plugin
First of all go to the plugin setting page.
To begin creation of your Include click ‘Create new’ button. Include options window will appear.
Include options window
Let’s see what are the meanings of all those options:
- Description. A shot description of your code. Something like ‘My banner’ or ‘Google Analitics’.
- Status. There are two options:
- Active. Include code will be shown.
- Disabled. Include code will not be shown.
- Location. Here you can select area of the page where your code will appear. Possible locations are:
- Header (between <head></head> tags). Suitable for placing meta tags like Google Webmaster Tools ID, css or javascript code. Do not place here html code for visual output like <div>Hello</div>.
- Footer (bottom of the page). Suitable for placing any type of code. For expample this is a right place for Google Analitics code.
- Before page content (before WP loop). Suitable for any types of advertisement.
- After page content (after WP loop). Suitable for any types of advertisement.
- Before post content. Suitable for any types of advertisement.
- After post content. Suitable for any types of advertisement.
- Widget. Suitable for inserting advertisement blocks to the sidebar. Widget must be activated on the Appearance->Widgets page.
- There is a sub option for Widget location – Widget title. This title is only for public pages. If no title provided, only widget include code will be displayed.
- Manual. This option allows you to place php function directly in your theme file.
Locations
- Priority. This field determines display order of the includes placed in the same location. Field value must be integer. Includes with equal priorities are sorted by creation time. Newer includes will be displayed after older. If you set priority to 0 or leave it empty, after saving include priority value will become equal to 100. This is done to create include with priority ‘always first’ and ‘always last’. To make include always first set priority to 1 and make sure that there are no other includes with this priority in the same location. To make include always last set priority higher than 100 (for example 1000). Now all new includes with undefined priority will be placed between ‘always first’ and ‘always last’.
- Include on. Here you can select pages where your code CAN be shown. To select multiple pages or deselect page hold CTRL key. WordPress pages, posts pages, categories pages and tag pages can be selected one by one. Also there are several special page selectors:
- All. That means all public pages.
- Front page. Whether it is posts or a Page. Sub pages also belong to the front page. To exclude subpages select `Paged pages` in Exclude on section.
- WP pages. These are WordPress Pages, not any generic webpage from your blog.
- Posts pages. All post pages.
- Date pages. These are all date-based archive pages (i.e. a monthly, yearly, daily or time-based archive).
- Category pages. All Category archive pages.
- Tag pages. All Tag archive pages.
- Author pages. All author pages.
- Attachment pages. All attachment pages.
- Paged pages. All pages being displayed as «paged». This refers to an archive or the main page being split up over several pages. Only second and subsequent pages are considered «paged». This does not refer to a Post or Page whose content has been divided into pages using the nextpage QuickTag.
- Search page. Any search result page.
- Preview page. Single post page displayed in Draft mode.
- Page 404. Paged displayed when ‘HTTP 404 Page not found’ error happens.
- Exclude on. Here you can select pages where your code CANNOT be shown. Multiple select can be done by holding CTRL key.
- Hide from admin. Check this option if you want to hide included code from logged in admin.
- Code. Html, css or javascript code. Inclusion of PHP code supported since version 1.1.0. PHP code must begins with `php open tag` (<?php). Examples:
PHP only
<?php // php open tag is required echo 'WP variable: '; print_r($GLOBALS['wp']); // php close tag is not required
PHP and html
<h1>Hello!</h1> <?php echo 'PHP!' ?> <h2>Bye!</h2>
- Sub option Align (since version 1.1.0). Allows you to set horizontal align of the included code. Useful for aligning Google AdSense blocks.
A few words about settings page interface.
You can select table columns which will be displayed and can change number of table rows per page. To do this go to Screen options menu.
Screen options
Also if Include options window is taking to much place you can minimize it by clicking on the window top bar (see screen shot above).
-
How many Includes may I create?
The number of Includes is unlimited.
-
What is ‘Widget title’ option?
This option allows you to specify widget title for public WordPress pages. It will be displayed like Categories or Tags widget titles.
If you leave this option blanc, widget will be displayed without title. -
I have set priority to 0 or left it blanc, but after saving it equals 100. Why?
This is done to help you create Include with priority ‘always first’ and ‘always last’. To make Include always first set priority to 1 and make sure that there are no other includes with this priority in the same location. To make include always last set priority higher than 100 (for example 1000). Now all new includes with undefined priority will be placed between ‘always first’ and ‘always last’.
-
Why Widget and Manual Includes priority is always 100 and I can’t change it?
Widget and Manual Includes don’t use priority number for sorting. Don’t worry about it.
-
In wich order sorted Includes with equal priorities?
Equal priority Includes are sorted by creation time. Newer includes will be displayed after older.

great plugin…handy staff
Thanks Max !
Where is your «donate button»???
Aaa… there is no «donate button» )
If you want to help, rate this plugin five star at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/q2w3-inc-manager/
Is it possible to get and include in between the «header» and the «before page content» ?
There is no option for this on the drop down provided and it is what I need. Whatever I place goes on the actual head tag (great for meta tags)or into just above this :
I mean I need it to go above the [div class="header"] tag on the header.php
I think you need to try manual include location.
Set Location option to «Manual» and then place < ?php q2w3_inc_manager::manual_inc(your_inc_id) ?> directly into your header.php where you need.
Thanks for writing back Max! Great Plugin !
The trouble is that I need to add a different scroller on each page, I guess I will make an include and work some php to handle this.
Cheers!
Hi Max,
I’m going nuts and no way I can make this simple test work.
I create a new
status=active; location manual; include on front page
inlude code :
[My HTML test]
[]
I place this in several locations on the template header and can only see the HTML but not the PHP, is it something I need to activate on Apache/php?
On viewing the source code the php is there but it is not read by the browser. I’m i going stupid?
There is no need to activate any apache/php extensions.
Let me see your Include code.
Exactly as you have the exaple php and html code above.
That was a bug… Sorry )
Update to version 1.2.4, to fix it!
EXCELLENT plugins…..!
I have this running Ok on several sites, very very useful, thanks.
Just uploaded to 2.8.3 in a sub directory and although the plug in loaded OK when I open the Include on link the Pages popup is blank.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Can you tell me where this link points to?
And what is your WP installation directory structure?
http://www.mydomain.com/shop/wp-content/plugins/q2w3-inc-manager/q2w3-table/q2w3_get.php?action=q2w3_table_wp_page_select&id=inc_pages_select&type=include&wp_nonce=fc01b6d1b4
This is the link that fails
I am attempting to creat a new inclusion.
I have installed the pluging on two sub directoies on this domain and they both fail.
Thanks
I just installed the plug in on another blog in the root of a domain but on the same server and I get the same problem.
Is the pop up script using ajax or something that needs a current install on the server?
Installed it on another blog on a different server and that runs OK, looks like it is related to that server set up ( VPS)
Plugin uses thickbox library for popups. This library is supplied with WordPress.
What happend with other popups windows in wp-admin (for expample insert image to the post window), are they working properly?
Insert Imgage in to post function worked fine.
Try to open this link in a browser (login to wp-admin and then open a new window in a browser). If you’ll see list of pages – link is ok, if you’ll see ‘page not found’ – problem in a link.
I already tried to open the link in a fresh browser but all I got was a blank page ( View Source showed no code for the blank page at all )
Try to do the following:
1. Log in to wp-admin
2. Copy ‘Include on’ link
3. Open a new tab in the same browser window
4. Open copied link in this new tab
I think you’ll see some kind of error.
If you’ll see blanc page again, look at web-server error log file for any php errors related to the time when you tried to open this link.
Same result, totally blank pop up page.
Tried to check error logs but they are blank, got my hosting company looking into why they nor recording, will try again later.
Thanks
Check your inbox!
I have sent e-mail to you with file for debugging.
Problem fixed in version 1.2.2
Many thanks for the fix in 1.2.2
I installed and when I click create new it sends me to http://malecelebsexposed.com/wordpress/wordpress/wp-admin/plugins.php?page=q2w3-inc-manager/q2w3-inc-manager.php&id=_new_ which displays my blog’s home page.
I noticed the problem when I posted here. During install it put /wordpress/wordpress/ in all its internal links so everything results in 404 error. My blog runs from / and all files other than index.php are in /wordpress/
Until till problem is resolved can’t use program. Too bad. Looked good. Let me know when problem fixed. Thx
Hello! The problem is fixed! Update to version 1.2.1
hi there .thanks for plugin, Does anybody know if tis script is compatible with WordPress 2.9 ? Thanks in advance for any help on this! Regards
Compatible! It is runing on this blog (WP 2.9.2).
The function does not include me
place an example of how I use
Do you mean function for manual include?
To create manual include follow this steps:
1. Create New Include
2. On the Include options screen select Location «Manual»
3. Fill other options (include code and so on)
4. Save Include
5. After saving Include look at the Location option. On the right of it will be displayed php code to be used in theme files. Copy this code to the clipboard (CRTL + C)
6. Then you must place this code in to the theme file (for example single.php or category.php, or both) in the place where you want
Nice plugin, easiest way to add css and js in a page or post without editing header.php of wordpress theme.
Hi Max,
Me again :) .I tried use the new feature php code in the new version. when i put wordpress function like wp_enqueue_script() in header, it doesn’t work. but works if i put ‘echo’ thing. is this because the plugin appended the scripts/codes after wp_header() ? this is not a really problem for me. anyway, great plugin!
Thank!
Hi Azlan!
Good to see you )
Function wp_enqueue_script() will not work if it is called from a wp_head action, as the tags are output before wp_head runs. It must be called earlier from an init action function (to load it in all pages), template_redirect (to load it in public pages only), or admin_print_scripts (for admin pages only).
I don’t recommend to use any wp functions wich must be called before page output begins.
OK..It’s done! Thank Max…
Hi, Azlan!
Thank you again for bug report! )
Looks like dbDelta function failed to correctly update table… eh. That was completely unexpected for me…
Column `code align` must have INT type.
Here is a file for automatic update.
Unzip it and upload to ‘q2w3-inc-manager/q2w3-table’ folder and then launch from browser ‘http://127.0.0.5/wp-content/plugins/q2w3-inc-manager/q2w3-table/q2w3_table_updater.php’, where 127.0.0.5 is your site domain.
After update you can delete this file.
hi Max,
After i figured it out, i know what the problem is. attribute ‘code_align’ is missing at the table ‘q2w3_inc_manager’ because your plugin do not checking and altering that table for include your new feature ‘code align’. can u give me the attribute type for ‘code_align’ field so i can alter it manually.
Thank You
Your plugin are very great. After i updated this plugin to version 1.1.0, i can’t edit or created new ‘include’.
Something error with db,
«DB error: Unknown column ‘code_align’ in ‘field list’»
yes already received your email. It’s works like a charm. Thank bro..
I am using the same versions of WP and PHP and have no errors…
Is there anybody with this problem?
Azlan, did you recieve my e-mail?
