Step 1: Understanding the Function
The intellipress_generator_types()
function is a helper function that returns an array of generator types. It currently includes a single type called ‘General’. The function uses the apply_filters()
function to allow other developers to modify the array of types.
Step 2: Hook into the Filter
To customize the generator types, you can hook into the intellipress_generator_types
filter using the add_filter()
function. The filter allows you to modify the array of types before it is returned by the intellipress_generator_types()
function.
Here’s an example of how you can hook into the filter and add your own generator type:
function my_custom_generator_type( $types ) {
// Add your custom generator type
$types['custom'] = esc_attr__( 'Custom', 'intellipress' );
return $types;
}
add_filter( 'intellipress_generator_types', 'my_custom_generator_type' );
In the above code, we define a new function called my_custom_generator_type()
that takes the $types
array as a parameter. Inside the function, we add our custom generator type called ‘Custom’ to the array. Finally, we return the modified array.
Step 3: Customize and Extend
You can further customize and extend the intellipress_generator_types()
function by adding more generator types or modifying existing ones. Simply add more key-value pairs to the $types
array.
Here’s an example of how you can add multiple custom generator types:
function my_custom_generator_type( $types ) {
// Add your custom generator types
$types['custom1'] = esc_attr__( 'Custom 1', 'intellipress' );
$types['custom2'] = esc_attr__( 'Custom 2', 'intellipress' );
return $types;
}
add_filter( 'intellipress_generator_types', 'my_custom_generator_type' );
In the above code, we added two custom generator types called ‘Custom 1’ and ‘Custom 2’ to the array.
Step 4: Enjoy the Customization
After adding the custom code to your project, you can use the intellipress_generator_types()
function to retrieve the modified array of generator types. The function will now include the default ‘General’ type along with any custom types you added.
$generator_types = intellipress_generator_types();
foreach ( $generator_types as $key => $label ) {
echo $key . ': ' . $label . '<br>';
}
In the above example, we retrieve the generator types using the intellipress_generator_types()
function and then loop through the array to display the keys and labels. This can be adapted to suit your specific needs.
And there you have it! You now know how to customize the intellipress_generator_types()
function to include your own generator types.
Have fun exploring the possibilities and adding your personal touch to the code!
