I am trying to build a Wordpress blog, which after a couple complete revamps i was starting to get quitte happy with the shaping site, unfortunately i have at some point made one paragraph block the global style and hours of trying to solve it now made everything worse.
When i try to remove it i was shocked to see that it doesn't seem like it's possible. At least on the surface. Worse, this cant be edited manually, nor i can change through CSS myself because the global style overrules everything, even when i add important.
Is there any way i can remove this global styles, without ruining my site?
I have tried to globally style different P blocks, even created new ones and done the same but this has made everything worse like i said.
To dequeue only the default WordPress stylesheet, you can use the wp_enqueue_scripts action hook to remove the `wp_enqueue_style() call for the default stylesheet. Here's an example of how to do it:
function remove_default_stylesheet() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'wp-block-library' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_default_stylesheet', 100 );
This code removes the default wp-block-library stylesheet that is included in WordPress. You can modify this code to remove other default stylesheets that you want to dequeue. Note that removing the default WordPress stylesheet may affect the styling of your site, so it's a good idea to have a plan for replacing it with your own styles if you choose to do so.

I'm making a Wordpress template and I want to have options in the built in Wordpress Customizer for things like accent color, custom font, etc. that will then be used throughout the template. However, this means that I can't just code static CSS and would have to pass a variable in somehow. How would I go about doing this?
Found an answer at https://www.cssigniter.com/how-to-create-a-custom-color-scheme-for-your-wordpress-theme-using-the-customizer/.
Here's the most relevant code:
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'theme-styles', get_stylesheet_uri() ); // This is where you enqueue your theme's main stylesheet
$custom_css = theme_get_customizer_css();
wp_add_inline_style( 'theme-styles', $custom_css );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );
theme_get_customizer_css() here is a custom function that returns a string of CSS that directly overwrites any code in the main stylesheet pertaining to colors, for example. Because it is generated in PHP, get_theme_mod() can be used to check for/insert any customizer settings. Once this CSS is generated, wp_add_inline_style() adds it to the main stylesheet; if everything is coded properly, CSS's cascading nature will have the newly added code override the earlier code without any need for !important or anything like that.
I'm left wondering if, instead of overriding, the inline inserts can (or should) be the only declaration of CSS that could be possibly changed by the customizer, i.e. in theme_get_customizer_css() if there are no customizer options set return the default code rather than the default code being in the spreadsheet to start with. This would prevent there being tons of duplicate CSS, relying on cascade hierarchies to work, but the stylesheet would also be incomplete on its own, so maybe there's reason not to do this? Would love input if anyone has thoughts.
I want to remove most css and scripts added to my Wordpress by plugins and maybe core Wordpress. How can I trace which function adds which line in my page header?
Tried to run search for the lines I want to remove but unsuccessfully. I know already that the code is done through wp_header hook but it does not help finding exact function.
If you know which plugins add the code you can go through plugin files in wp-content/plugins/plugin-name and find following functions.
wp_enqueue_script()
wp_enqueue_style()
Usually it will be together and wrapped in another function which will be called by action:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'name_of_function' );
For not loading the scripts just uncomment add_action line.
But please be aware, that those scripts are usually vital for correct function of plugin so you will have to serve them from somewhere else.
Also when disabling wp_enqueue be sure you are not disabling admin scripts which would be loaded by action
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'name_of_function' );
To be sure always check parametres of wp_enqueue function where script name should match the script you had previously seen in head section of your site.
Every update of plugin will override the files and therefore enable scripts again
Hope this helps.
I am having a problem with a site I am developing with wordpress.
It happened after upgrading to the latest version (4.7)
Anyway. Go to the site www.scientized.com (just dummy content for now), and go the source. At around line 124 you see the tag <style type="text/css" id="wp-custom-css"> and then after some css is loaded.
The thing is, is that this some of my old css code from way early. To make life easier and to isolate the problem I have delete all css in my child themes style.css as well as the custom css in the customizer, and delete jetpack just to be sure. Yet this css is being loaded from somewhere. I have file explored the crap out of my site trying to find where this is located, but couldn't find anything.
I have found that in the wp-includes/theme.php there is this function:
function wp_custom_css_cb() {
$styles = wp_get_custom_css();
if ( $styles || is_customize_preview() ) : ?>
<style type="text/css" id="wp-custom-css">
<?php echo strip_tags( $styles ); // Note that esc_html() cannot be used because `div > span` is not interpreted properly. ?>
</style>
<?php endif;
}
so this wp_get_customer_css() function is calling the old css from somewhere -- I tried to follow the functions back to see where - but my php is not that good and got lost. Does anyone know where this is being loaded from?
I think I need to know where the JetPack custom css location is. I have read it is generated dynamically -- so I am not sure how to go about the problem.
Edit: I dont get the text box in the custom css area in customizer. Where is this text located?

The Additional CSS content is stored in wp_posts database table as a separate record. It's post_type is set to custom_css. To find which post is assigned to the field, you need to look in the option theme_mods_{your theme's slug}.
For example, here is the one from my test Sandbox site which is running the Genesis Sample theme. The post ID is 31, per the key custom_css_post_id.
How do I check my site?
You can go directly into your database via phpMyAdmin and look in the wp_options table. Or...you can do this:
add_action( 'init', 'check_custom_css_post_id_theme_mod' );
function check_custom_css_post_id_theme_mod() {
var_dump( get_theme_mods() );
}
The above code will display the theme mods for your current theme. Note the one that is keyed as 'custom_css_post_id'. That one holds the ID to the post for the CSS.
How to Remove It
To remove a theme mod, you use remove_theme_mod( 'custom_css_post_id' );. See codex for the documentation on this construct. It will remove the binding between the Additional CSS. How? It deletes the sub-option.
Note, it does not delete the post record, meaning you'll have an orphaned record in wp_posts.
The wp-custom-css is loaded from custom css & js
I have written a little PHP script that I have included via short-code into a WordPress page. Is it possible to only use a custom css file in the PHP script without it inheriting CSS elements from the WordPress theme?
If yes than how ?
Any styles included after the original stylesheet will override the previous styles (as long as they are qualified to the same level).
A better way of overriding styles would be to give your new page an ID and then in your new stylesheet you can use #NewID .cssSelectorToOverride {\*new styles\*}
This is a good article that can teach you about css selectors and precedence: http://www.vanseodesign.com/css/css-specificity-inheritance-cascaade/
Generally if the new style file is called after the previous file it will be over wridden, or else specify the style in the tag it self if its critical in some manner.
I hope this will do, if want more assistance provide example with your work.
thank you
open function.php file inside your root directory of WordPress theme. and just insert this function PFB, just change the directory, for js you don't need to connect a separate file because you can use footer.php and insert your js code in script tag it will work accurately.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'radliv_child_enqueue_styles' ); function radliv_child_enqueue_styles() { wp_enqueue_style( 'custom-css-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/inc/assets/css/custom.css' ); } ;
You have to do two things:
give your snippet a parent div id, say "#mySnippet"
At the bottom of your css file, ad a section for #mySnippet elements. It is important to be at the bottom so it can override other properties if you must
A custom CSS files won't always work with wordpress because the platform requires a certain file structure, and if I'm not mistaken, all your css code has to be in style.css. This is why your snippet code has to be in style.css at the bottom (preferably well isolated from the rest with a comment line).
Now all the elements that you need to change would simply be preceded by #mySnippet. For example, your P tags in the snippet should be targeted as such:
#mySnippet p {
property:value;
}
This should take care of it..
I am working on a wordpress site and would like to clarify a basic concept that is definitely very important, and this is how to customize/extend a wordpress hook (at least that's what I think I want to do!)
As the real world example, I am setting up a wp-ecommerce site. When a user adds an item to the cart, I would like to do one or two more things than the original function does. Looking through the source, I find:
/wp-content/plugins/wp-e-commerce/wpsc-includes/ajax.functions.php
with the function:
function wpsc_add_to_cart()
I know I could simply edit the code right here, but obviously that is the completely wrong way to go about it as when the plugin is updated, I will lose changes. What is the correct way to extend a function that is part of a plugin, or wordpress for that matter?
Endless thanks in advance.
You can use the wordpress action hooks to resolve the code loss while plugin upgrade.
You can remove the function which is in plugin file by using remove_action hook and do your own code by adding add_action in your function.php file. So that you can customize your plugin code from theme's function.php.
Here are the examples to explain.I hope it will help.

I use a little supressed notice function (it lives in my child themes function.php page), for plugins that get irritating eg: please setup twitter account to use , this kind of warning is not useful at certain stages and sometimes just do not care for it.
function supressed_notices_active(){
echo '<div class="error"><p>Supressed Notices are active</p></div>';
}
if(function_exists('the_plugin_custom_function_call')){
remove_action('the_plugin_custom_function_call' );
add_action('admin_notices','supressed_notices_active');
}else{
function test_message_from_me(){
echo '<h1>show</h1>';
}
add_action('admin_notices','test_message_from_me');
}
So I create the supressed notice function to at least create a warning, so i remember.
Check if the target function exists with the function_exists($target_function) hook
then remove this action from running with the remove_action($tag,$target_function) hook
then just add your custom function with the add_action($tag,$target_function) hook (do not need to have a separate function this could just be a closure)
then else if the function does not exist either still run a new action or leave this section, it can be useful for testing to just add anything so you atleast get some feed back.
What you could try... Copy the function within the plugin file,
paste it into your themes functions.php file,
ie:
function wpsc_add_to_cart() {
global $wpdb, $wpsc_cart;
// default values etc..etc..
// new code here?
}
the only thing with this is, if the plugin is updated and that funciton is renamed or removed, changed or something you could start to run into trouble...
could you not ask the plugin developer to possibly add your requirements to it,
possibly for a small fee? but if your using it as your main shopping cart, then chances are, that small investment could be a good thing.
