Unyson Framework, Release

Unyson is a framework for WordPress that facilitates development of a theme. This framework was created from the
ground up by the team behind ThemeFuse from the desire to empower developers to build outstanding WordPress
themes fast and easy.
Note: This documentation assumes you have a working knowledge of WordPress. If you havent, please start by
reading WordPress Documentation.

Minimum Requirements

WordPress 4.3 or greater


PHP version 5.2.4 or greater
MySQL version 5.0 or greater

Unyson Framework, Release

Chapter 1. Minimum Requirements

CHAPTER 2

Installation

2.1 Install as plugin


The easiest (recommended) way to install the framework, is through the Plugins menu: Search for plugin named
Unyson and click the Install button.
Or you can install the plugin manually:
1. Upload the unyson folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the Unyson plugin through the Plugins menu
3. Configure the plugin by going to the Unyson menu

2.2 Install anywhere


The framework can be placed in any directory you want, just include the bootstrap.php file.
Note: You can include the bootstrap.php file multiple times, however only the first included version will be
active, all other includes will be ignored/inactive.
The only thing you will have to configure is the framework directory uri, for the static files to be enqueued properly:
if (defined('FW')):
// the framework was already included in another place, so this version will be inactive/ignored
else:
/** @internal */
function _filter_fw_framework_plugin_directory_uri() {
return 'https://.../uri/to/this/directory' . '/framework';
}
add_filter('fw_framework_directory_uri', '_filter_fw_framework_plugin_directory_uri');
require dirname(__FILE__) .'/framework/bootstrap.php';
endif;

CHAPTER 3

License

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU
General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software. Unyson inherits the
General Public License (GPL) from WordPress.

3.1 Convention
3.1.1 General
The framework was built following some rules to ensure compatibility between components and to provide an easier
way for developers to work together. Here are some starting rules to keep in mind:
The code should work on php 5.2.4, like WordPress Minimum Requirements says. Dont use php 5.3+ features,
because some hosting providers dont have php 5.3+ installed on the servers.
Follow WordPress Coding Standards.
Note: If you already have some code written with spaces indentation (that does not follow WordPress
Coding Standards), use this RegExp to replace spaces with tabs:
(?<=^\s*) {4} replace with \t

3.1.2 Prefixes
In the framework everything is prefixed to prevent naming conflicts and to give a meaning to functions, classes and
methods names.
Core
Theme
Extensions

Core
Public functions and classes should be prefixed with:
fw_ for functions
7

Unyson Framework, Release

FW_ for classes


function fw_useful_function() {
// ...
}
class FW_Useful_Class {
// ...
}

Note: A Public function is meant to be used by anyone. Usually its a helper function that does
something useful.
Private functions and classes should be prefixed with:
_fw_ for functions
_FW_ for classes
/**
* @internal
*/
function _fw_private_function() {
// ...
}
/**
* @internal
*/
class _FW_Private_Class
{
// ...
}

Note: A private function is used somewhere internally. Dont forget to use the @internal tag
in your PhpDoc in order to make it clear to other developers that this is a private function. It will
also remove the function from your documentation (if you are using an automatic documentation
generator)
Functions and methods used for hooks should be prefixed with:
_action_ for add_action()
_filter_ for add_filter()
/**
* @internal
*/
function _action_init_something() {
// ...
}
add_action('init', '_action_init_something');

Important: Be sure the function name is unique enough in order to minimize the chances to be
defined by someone else. Do not use too simple function names like _action_init.

class FW_Example
{
public function __construct()
{
add_filter('the_content', array($this, '_filter_the_content'));
}
/**
* @internal
*/
public function _filter_the_content($content) {
// ...
return $content;
}
}

Filters and actions should be prefixed with fw_.


$data = apply_filters('fw_whatever', $data);
do_action('fw_whatever');

Theme
Public functions and classes should be prefixed with:
fw_theme_ for functions
FW_Theme_ for classes
function fw_theme_head() {
// ...

function _fw_theme_private_function() {
// ...
}
/**
* @internal
*/
class _FW_Theme_Private_Class
{

3.1. Convention

Unyson Framework, Release

// ...
}

Functions used for hooks should be prefixed with:


_action_theme_ for add_action()
_filter_theme_ for add_filter()
/**
* @internal
*/
function _filter_theme_the_content($content) {
// ...

add_filter('the_content', '_filter_theme_the_content');
/**
* @internal
*/
function _action_theme_init() {
// ...
}
add_action('init', '_action_theme_init');

Filters and actions should be prefixed with fw_theme_.


$data = apply_filters('fw_theme_whatever', $data);
do_action('fw_theme_whatever');

Extensions
Public functions and classes should be prefixed with:
fw_ext_<extension-name>_ for functions
FW_Ext_<extension-name>_ for classes
Private functions and classes should be prefixed with:
_fw_ext_<extension-name>_ for functions
_FW_Ext_<extension-name>_ for classes
Functions used for hooks should be prefixed with:
_action_fw_ext_<extension-name>_ for add_action()
_filter_fw_ext_<extension-name>_ for add_filter()
For e.g. if extension name is demo:
/**
* @internal
*/
function _filter_fw_ext_demo_the_content($content) {
// ...
return $content;

function _action_fw_ext_demo_init() {
// ...
}
add_action('init', '_action_fw_ext_demo_init');

Filters and actions should be prefixed with fw_ext_<extension-name>_.


For e.g. if extension name is demo:
$data = apply_filters('fw_ext_demo_whatever', $data);
do_action('fw_ext_demo_whatever');

3.1.3 Directory Structure


Weve organized the files and folders in order to be easy to understand and use. What follows is the directory and file
structure of an Unyson theme:

themes/
-parent-theme/
| -framework-customizations/
|
-extensions/
|
| -extension-name/
|
| -...
|
-theme/
|
-manifest.php
# Theme details: title, description, version, dependencies, etc.
|
-config.php
# Theme specific configuration
|
-options/
|
-settings.php # Theme settings options
|
-customizer.php # Customizer options
|
-posts/
# Post types options
|
| -post.php
|
| -testimonial.php
|
| -{post-type}.php
|
| -...
|
-taxonomies/ # Taxonomy terms options
|
-category.php
|
-post_tag.php
|
-{taxonomy}.php
|
-...
-child-theme/
-framework-customizations/
-... # same as in then parent theme, but here you can overwrite specific files from the parent th

Lets take a closer look at each directory and file, and understand how it works.
framework-customizations/theme/ - Contains options, views, helpers, and all bunch of theme stuff,
well take a closer look at every file below.
framework-customizations/theme/manifest.php - Contains an array with information about
theme, accessible through fw()->theme->manifest->get(key);. More details about the theme
manifest.

3.1. Convention

11

Unyson Framework, Release

framework-customizations/theme/config.php - Theme configuration array, accessible through


fw()->theme->get_config(key);. Here are the default values.
$cfg = array(
// Theme Settings form ajax submit
'settings_form_ajax_submit' => true,
// Theme Settings side tabs
'settings_form_side_tabs' => true,
);

framework-customizations/theme/options/ - A directory containing option files: post types,


taxonomies, customizer and theme settings page options. The framework will automatically pick them, display in admin pages and save the values in the database. Also you can add custom options files in it, for
e.g. framework-customizations/theme/options/my-options.php and access them through
fw()->theme->get_options(my-options). Use the fw_get_db_..._option() functions
to get the settings, customizer, posts and taxonomies options values from the database.
For e.g. you can add options in Customizer in two steps:
1. Create {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/customizer.php
$options = array(
'section_1' => array(
'title' => __('Unyson Section', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'option_1' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'value' => 'Default Value',
'label' => __('Unyson Option', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Option Description', '{domain}'),
),
),
),
);

2. Use option value in template


$value = fw_get_db_customizer_option('option_1');

framework-customizations/extensions/ - Contains customizations for the framework extensions.


You can overwrite options, views and configuration files of the extensions located in the framework or custom
locations like other plugins. You can also store there theme extensions and create sub-extensions for extensions
located in the framework or custom locations. Extension is identified by its relative path, for e.g. an extension
can be located in:
Framework wp-content/plugins/unyson/framework/extensions/{extension-name}

Plugin wp-content/plugins/whaterever-plugin/custom-dir/extensions/{extension-name}

that extension can be customized in {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/{extension-name


Also you can create a sub-extension in {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/{extension-nam
You can also create a framework-customizations/ directory in the child theme. There you can do the same
things as in parent theme, and also you can overwrite some files from the parent theme, like options and configuration
files. Keep in mind that some files from the child theme are included before the parent theme files (or the other way
around, it depends on the case) to give you the ability to customize some parent theme behavior.

3.2 Options
3.2.1 Introduction
Introduction
Options files
Containers
Restrictions

Introduction
Options are intended for creating form fields representing different kind of data e.g. rich and plain text, icons, media
content, fonts and more. With options you can easily create tabs, boxes and form inputs for the admin pages. You just
build an array and it will be transformed to html. On form submit, values will be saved into the database, and you will
be able to access them anywhere you want using fw_get_db_..._option() helper functions.
For advanced users, this is an easy way to create form inputs and use them for various purposes. The simplest options
array looks something like this:
$options = array(
'option_id' => array(
'type' => 'text'
)
);

This will generate a text input. The array key is used as option id, it should be unique. Values in the database will be
stored as array(option_id => value).
Note: The only required parameter for any option is type.
All options have some base parameters:
label (string) Label
desc (string) Description
value (mixed) Default value
attr (array) HTML attributes (some options will place these attributes in input, other in wrapper div)
help (string|array) Additional info about option. This will generate an
text in a tip popup.

next to option that will show the

Some options can have additional (optional) parameters. A better customized option will look like this:
$options = array(
'option_id' =>
'type' =>
'value' =>
'label' =>
'desc' =>
'attr' =>
'help' =>

3.2. Options

array(
'text',
'Default value',
__('Option Label', '{domain}'),
__('Option Description', '{domain}'),
array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
__('Some html that will appear in tip popup', '{domain}'),

13

Unyson Framework, Release

)
);

You can test the above array by creating any of the below options file and placing the array in it.
Options files
These are the main places where options are used:

Theme Settings Page: Loads the options from {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/settings.

Customizer Page: Loads the options from {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/customizer.

Post Add/Edit Page: Loads the options from {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/posts/{$po

Taxonomy Term Edit Page: Loads the options from {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/taxon


Containers
Options that have no value and contain other options in the options parameter are containers. If an option has the
options parameter, it is considered a container.
The simplest container option array looks as in the below example and will generate an empty metabox without title:
$options = array(
array(
'type'
=> 'box',
'options' => array()
)
);

Note: Like options, containers have a minimum set of required parameters: type and options. The type
parameter in Customizer options is optional and its not used (has no effect).
There are 4 built-in container types:
box - WordPress metabox
'box_id' => array(
'type' => 'box',
'options' => array(
'option_id' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
),
'title' => __('Box Title', '{domain}'),
'attr' => array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
/**
* When used in Post Options on the first array level
* the ``box`` container accepts additional parameters
*/
//'context' => 'normal|advanced|side',
//'priority' => 'default|high|core|low',
),

tab - One tab (Tabs from the same array level will be collected and rendered as multiple tabs)

14

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

'tab_id' => array(


'type' => 'tab',
'options' => array(
'option_id' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
),
'title' => __('Tab Title', '{domain}'),
'attr' => array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
),
'tab_id_2' => array(
'type' => 'tab',
'options' => array(
'option_id_2' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
),
'title' => __('Tab Title #2', '{domain}'),
'attr' => array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
),

group - Group options into a wrapper div. Has no design. Usually used to show/hide a group of options from
javascript
'group_id' => array(
'type' => 'group',
'options' => array(
'option_id' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
),
'attr' => array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
),

popup - A button, when clicked it will open a modal with options


'popup_id' => array(
'type' => 'popup',
'options' => array(
'option_id' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
),
'title' => __('Button and Popup Title', '{domain}'),
'attr' => array('class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar'),
'modal-size' => 'small', // small, medium, large
'desc' => __('Button Description', '{domain}'),
),

Restrictions

Here are some restrictions to keep in mind:


attr parameter from Post Options first level box containers, is not used. Because boxes are added with
add_meta_box() which has no parameter for specifying attributes.
Note: There are no restrictions (except Customizer) for what options are contained in the options parameter. Its
possible to create multi level options: boxes inside boxes, tabs inside boxes, tabs inside tabs, and so on.

3.2.2 Theme Integration


With options you can easy create admin forms and use the values in frontend. Lets to this!

3.2. Options

15

Unyson Framework, Release

Customizer Options
1. Create {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/customizer.php with the following contents:
<?php if (!defined( 'FW' )) die('Forbidden');
$options = array(
'body-color' => array(
'type' => 'color-picker',
'label' => __('Body Color', '{domain}'),
'value' => '#ADFF2F',
),
);

2. Add in {theme}/functions.php
function _action_theme_wp_print_styles() {
if (!defined('FW')) return; // prevent fatal error when the framework is not active
$option_value = fw_get_db_customizer_option('body-color');
echo '<style type="text/css">'
. 'body { '
. 'border: 30px solid '. esc_html($option_value) .'; '
. '}'
. '</style>';
}
add_action('wp_print_styles', '_action_theme_wp_print_styles');

3. Go to menu Appearance > Customize, find the Body Color option and change it.
Hint: You can enable Live Preview for customizer options.

Settings Options
1. Create {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/settings.php with the following contents:
<?php if (!defined( 'FW' )) die('Forbidden');
$options = array(
'body-color' => array(
'type' => 'color-picker',
'label' => __('Body Color', '{domain}'),
'value' => '#ADFF2F',
),
);

2. Add in {theme}/functions.php
function _action_theme_wp_print_styles() {
if (!defined('FW')) return; // prevent fatal error when the framework is not active
$option_value = fw_get_db_settings_option('body-color');

echo '<style type="text/css">'


. 'body { '
. 'border: 30px solid '. esc_html($option_value) .'; '
. '}'
. '</style>';
}
add_action('wp_print_styles', '_action_theme_wp_print_styles');

3. Go to menu Appearance > Theme Settings, find the Body Color option, change it and press Save.
4. Go to frontend and see the changes.
Post Options
1. Create {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/posts/post.php with the following contents:
<?php if (!defined( 'FW' )) die('Forbidden');
$options = array(
'main' => array(
'type' => 'box',
'title' => __('Testing Options', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'body-color' => array(
'type' => 'color-picker',
'label' => __('Body Color', '{domain}'),
'value' => '#ADFF2F',
),
),
),
);

2. Add in {theme}/functions.php
function _action_theme_wp_print_styles() {
if (!defined('FW')) return; // prevent fatal error when the framework is not active
global $post;
if (!$post || $post->post_type != 'post') {
return;
}
$option_value = fw_get_db_post_option($post->ID, 'body-color');
echo '<style type="text/css">'
. 'body { '
. 'border: 30px solid '. esc_html($option_value) .'; '
. '}'
. '</style>';
}
add_action('wp_print_styles', '_action_theme_wp_print_styles');

3. Create a new Post, find Body Color option, change it and save the post.
4. Open the post in frontend and see the changes.

3.2. Options

17

Unyson Framework, Release

3.2.3 Customizer
Starting with v2.3.0 options can be used in Customizer.
Customizer Options {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/customizer.php are
turned into Customizer elements (panels, sections and controls).
The customizer elements have a strict structure which also applies to options array structure:
Containers can be nested only 2 levels
container > option is turned into section > control
container > container > option is turned into panel > section > control
container > container > container > option will not work panel > section >
ERROR
Containers must contain only options or only containers, because a panel cant contain both sections and controls.
Examples
Try the below arrays in {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/customizer.php.
Create a Section
$options = array(
'section_1' => array(
'title' => __('Unyson Section', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'option_1' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'value' => 'Default Value',
'label' => __('Unyson Option', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Option Description', '{domain}'),
),
),
),
);

Create a Panel with Sections


$options = array(
'panel_1' => array(
'title' => __('Unyson Panel', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'section_1' => array(
'title' => __('Unyson Section #1', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'option_1' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'value' => 'Default Value',
'label' => __('Unyson Option #1', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Option Description', '{domain}'),
),

),
),
'section_2' => array(
'title' => __('Unyson Section #2', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'option_2' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'value' => 'Default Value',
'label' => __('Unyson Option #2', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Option Description', '{domain}'),
),
'option_3' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'value' => 'Default Value',
'label' => __('Unyson Option #3', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Option Description', '{domain}'),
),
),
),
),
),
);

Get option database/saved value in template


$value = fw_get_db_customizer_option('option_1');

Live Preview
In background, customizer options are converted into customizer elements, so they follow default WordPress behavior
and implementing a live preview can be done using the default WordPress solution.
1. Change the setting transport and enqueue the javascript
// file: {theme}/inc/hooks.php
if (defined('FW')):
/**
* @param WP_Customize_Manager $wp_customize
* @internal
*/
function _action_customizer_live_fw_options($wp_customize) {
if ($wp_customize->get_setting('fw_options[OPTION_ID]')) {
$wp_customize->get_setting('fw_options[OPTION_ID]')->transport = 'postMessage';

add_action( 'customize_preview_init', '_action_customizer_live_fw_options_previe


}
}
add_action('customize_register', '_action_customizer_live_fw_options');
/**
* @internal
*/

3.2. Options

19

Unyson Framework, Release

function _action_customizer_live_fw_options_preview() {
wp_enqueue_script(
'mytheme-customizer',
get_template_directory_uri() .'/assets/js/theme-customizer.js',
array( 'jquery','customize-preview' ),
fw()->theme->manifest->get_version(),
true
);
}
endif;

2. Handle the change in javascript


// file: {theme}/assets/js/theme-customizer.js

( function( $ ) {
wp.customize( 'fw_options[OPTION_ID]', function( value ) {
value.bind( function( newval ) {
/**

newval = JSON.parse(newval);
$( 'h1' ).text( newval[0].value );
} );
} );
} )( jQuery );

Note: The value comes in [{name:input[name],value:input value}] format, because the customizer form is not submitted as a regular form. A control can store its value
only inside a single input which has some special attributes (instead of name="...") and it is
monitored for changes by the Customizer script to trigger the preview update. Because of that, the
framework options collect all their inputs values and store them in that special input (here is an
advanced explanation).

3.2.4 Option Types


Every option has type as a required parameter. Its value should be an existing registered option type.
HTML
All option types must have .fw-option-type-{type} class on main/wrapper html element.
CSS
If the option type has css, all rules must be prefixed with .fw-option-type-{type} class:
/* correct */
.fw-option-type-demo .some-class {
color: blue;

20

Unyson Framework, Release

}
/* wrong */
.some-class {
color: blue;
}

Tip: This is done to prevent css conflicts.

Javascript
All javascript must stick to .fw-option-type-{type} class and work only within the main/wrapper element
(no events attached to the body). If the option type has custom javascript events, those events must be triggered on the
main element.
$someInnerElement.closest('.fw-option-type-demo')
.trigger('fw:option-type:demo:custom-event', {some: 'data'});

If its specified in the documentation that an option type has custom events, it means that you can attach event listeners
on the elements with .fw-option-type-{type} class (not on body or fwEvents).
Caution: Do not confuse .fw-option-type-{type} with .fw-backend-option-type-{type}
class which is used internally by the framework and should not be used in option type scripts.

will be able to filter through a list of icon packs and also upload his own icon. The result value will contain type
field and it will contain the type of the selected content. It can be icon-font or custom-upload. Youll also get
favorite icon functionallity which will work out of the box.
Note: Youll have to enable SVG uploads by yourself, with a hook in your theme.
By default, we have just 6 icon packs enabled and served with Unyson itself.
Font Awesome
Entypo
Linecons
Linearicons
Typicons
Unycons
Note: By default, none of this packs will be enqueued in the frontend of your theme.

You should call this in order to enqueue them: fw()->backend->option_type(icon-v2)->packs_loader->enqueue

Configure Icon Packs

Icon V2 is easily extensible with a couple of filters you can hook into. First, you may want to configure which of the
already registered packs we should display into the picker.
function _custom_packs_list($current_packs) {
/**
* $current_packs is an array of pack names.
* You should return which one you would like to show in the picker.
*/
return array('font-awesome', 'unycon');
}
add_filter('fw:option_type:icon-v2:filter_packs', '_custom_packs_list');

Note: Thats a global hook which changes behavior for all pickers. Configuring packs per picker is not available and
will not be implemented later. If you have some particular use case for this, please fill an issue.

Add Icon Pack

Long story short, you can add more packs by filtering on fw:option_type:icon-v2:packs filter. Simplest
example, all of the keys are required:
add_filter('fw:option_type:icon-v2:packs', '_add_my_pack');
function _add_my_pack($default_packs) {
/**
* No fear. Defaults packs will be merged in back. You can't remove them.
* Changing some flags for them is allowed.

*/
return array(
'my_pack' => array(
'name' => 'my_pack', // same as key
'title' => 'My Cool Pack',
'css_class_prefix' => 'my-pack',
'css_file' => 'path_to_css_file',
'css_file_uri' => 'network_accessible_url'
)
)
}

And this will just work for most of the cases. You dont need to specify which icons specifically to show inside the
picker. All of them will be showed, by default. In fact, theres some magick going on that will extract all of your icons
and show them up. Ill try to make it clear below.
Computing icons list

By default, when you register an icon pack its icons will be extracted from the css file automatically, so that you dont
have to maintain a long array of icons for each pack. Instead we do some trick instead. We look into the css file for
each pack and look for patterns that look like this:
.`css_class_prefix`-some-icon:before {
content: '\266a';
}

css_class_prefix there refers to the css_class_prefix option you specified for your icon pack.
// Those will be considered an icon
.my-pack-some-icon:before { content: '\266a'; }
.my-pack.my-pack-some-icon:before { content: '\266a'; }
.my-pack.my-pack-some-icon:after { content: '\266a'; }
// This one won't
.my-pack.my-pack-some-icon:after { color: red; }

Generally speaking, thats what an icon pack CSS file consist of:
@font-face rules
icon generations we try hard to get just them
some other general purpose helpers theyre encountered not that often
You can also completely stop this mechanism for one pack by specifying an array of icons for the icons option. A
more complete pack definition can be found here.

Add support for new option type in picker

If you want to use in picker an option type that is not supported by default (is not present in the examples above), follow the steps below. In this example, is added support for icon option type (it is not practical, just for demonstration
purposes).
1. Add in {theme}/inc/hooks.php
/**
* Generate array( 'choice_id' => array( Choice Options ) )
* @internal
* @param array $choices
* @param array $data
* @return array
*/
function _filter_theme_option_type_multi_picker_choices_icon($choices, $data) {
$choices = $data['option']['choices'];
// maybe check and remove invalid choices ...
return $choices;
}
add_filter(
'fw_option_type_multi_picker_choices:icon',
'_filter_theme_option_type_multi_picker_choices_icon',
10, 2
);
/**
* @internal
*/
function _admin_theme_multi_picker_custom_picker_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_script(
'multi-picker-custom-pickers',
get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/multi-picker-custom-pickers.js',
array('fw-events'),
false,
true
);
}
add_action(
'admin_enqueue_scripts',
'_admin_theme_multi_picker_custom_picker_scripts'
);

2. Add in {theme}/js/multi-picker-custom-pickers.js

fwEvents.on('fw:option-type:multi-picker:init:icon', function(data){
data.$pickerGroup.find('.fw-option-type-icon > input[type="hidden"]').on('change', funct
data.chooseGroup(
this.value // this is `choice_id` from the `fw_option_type_multi_picker_choices:
);
}).trigger('change');
});

3. Add in {theme}/framework-customizations/theme/options/settings.php
$options = array(

40

'demo_multi_picker_icon' => array(


'type'
=> 'multi-picker',

'price' => array(
'label' => __( 'Price', 'unyson' ),
'type' => 'slider',
'value' => 30

'label' => __('Label', '{domain}'),
'desc' => __('Description', '{domain}'),
'help' => __('Help tip', '{domain}'),
)

Multi
Group any options database values under a single array key. This option has no design, inner options will look the
same as other options (its like the group container).

3.2. Options

41

Unyson Framework, Release

// database value structure


'option_type_multi_id' => array(

'option-1' => 'value 1',
'option-2' => 'value 2',

'attr' => array(
'class' => 'custom-class',
'data-foo' => 'bar',
/*

'inner-options' => array(
'option_1' => array( 'type' => 'text' ),
'option_2' => array( 'type' => 'textarea' ),

Important: The parameter that contains options is named inner-options not options otherwise this will be
treated as a container option.

Hidden
Simple hidden input.
array(
'type' => 'hidden',
'value' => 'default value',
'attr' => array( 'class' => 'custom-class', 'data-foo' => 'bar' ),
)

Tip: The hidden input is not visible, so parameters like label, desc and help have no sense here.

HTML
If you want to display a custom piece of html, use this option type.
Note: This option type has a value stored in a hidden input. Advanced users can create some javascript functionality

in html and store the value in that hidden input.

Some option types have custom javascript events.


The events are triggered on elements with
.fw-option-type-{type} class. Some events send data that can be accessed this way:
jQuery('.fw-option-type-demo#fw-option-demo')
.on('fw:option-type:demo:custom-event', function(event, data){
console.log(data);
});

3.2.6 Create Option Type


To define a new option type, create a class that extends the base option type class and register it.
Note: It doesnt matter where you place your new option type. If you use the Theme Includes directory structure, place it in the {theme}/inc/includes/option-types/my-option/ directory and include it on
fw_option_types_init action:
// file: {theme}/inc/hooks.php
/** @internal */
function _action_theme_include_custom_option_types() {
require_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/includes/option-types/new/class-fw-option-type-new.php';
}
add_action('fw_option_types_init', '_action_theme_include_custom_option_types');

Option Width
There are three width types:
auto - dynamically adapted to the contents of the option.
fixed - fixed size (it doesnt matter what size, its just fixed).
full - full available width (100%).
Every option has its own width type specified in FW_Option_Type::_get_backend_width_type().

3.3 Extensions
3.3.1 Introduction
Extensions are functionalities that add something new to framework or to another extension. They can be installed via
Extensions page, bundled with a theme or loaded from a plugin (or any directory).

3.3. Extensions

47

Unyson Framework, Release

Directory Structure
Load Locations
Custom Load Locations
Child Extensions

Directory Structure
Every extension has everything it needs in its own folder: settings, options, scripts, styles, etc. In this way, extensions
can be easy added or removed without affecting other files.
The extension directory has the following structure:

{extension-name}/
-manifest.php # Data about extension: version, name, dependencies, etc.
-class-fw-extension-{extension-name}.php # class FW_Extension_{Extension_Name} extends FW_Extension {
-config.php
# Extension specific configurations
-static.php
# wp_enqueue_style() and wp_enqueue_script()
-posts.php
# register_post_type() and register_taxonomy()
-hooks.php
# add_filter() and add_action()
-helpers.php
# Helper functions and classes
-readme.md.php # Install instructions
-options/
| -posts/
# Post types options
| | -post.php
| | -{post-type}.php
| | -...
| -taxonomies/ # Taxonomies terms options
| | -category.php
| | -post_tag.php
| | -{taxonomy}.php
| | -...
| -...
-settings-options.php # Extension Settings page options
-views/
| -...
-static/
| -js/
| -css/
| -...
-includes/ # All .php files are auto included (no need to require_once)
| -other.php
| -...
---[extensions/] # Directory for sub extensions

Lets take a closer look at each directory and file, and understand how it works.
manifest.php - The only required file, all other files are optional. It contains the base information about
extension. More details about the extension manifest.
class-fw-extension-{extension-name}.php - If the extension has some advanced
functionality, it can define a class that will be the instance of the extension returned by
fw()->extensions->get({extension-name}). By default an instance of default class will
be created, which is an empty class that just extends the FW_Extension class. This file cant be overwritten.
config.php
Configuration
array,
which
is
accessible
through
the
$ext->get_config(key) method.
Users can customize it by creating the same file in

48

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

{theme-name}/framework-customizations/extension/{extension-name}/config.php
and overwrite only some keys (internally is made array_merge($extension_config,
$theme_customized_config)).
static.php - Enqueue extension scripts and styles.
It is included automatically on
the wp_enqueue_scripts and admin_enqueue_scripts actions,
so you can enqueue both admin and frontend scripts and styles from it, but you will have to use
the is_admin() function.
This file can be overwritten from theme by creating
{theme-name}/framework-customizations/extension/{extension-name}/static.php.
posts.php - Register theme post types and taxonomies in this file. It is included automatically on the init
action.
hooks.php - File containing filters and actions. This file is automatically included as early as possible, in this
way your extension will not miss any action or filter execution.
helpers.php - All extensions helper functions and classes must be in this file.
readme.md.php - Install instructions for users, to make the extension start working.

options/ - A directory containing option files: post types, taxonomies or custom options. The
framework will not automatically pick them (like theme options), only the extension decides
how to use these options.
You can access them through the $ext->get_[...]_options()
methods.
Users can overwrite in the theme any file from the options/ directory, by creating
{theme-name}/framework-customizations/extension/{extension-name}/options/{file-name}.ph
settings-options.php - Options used for the extension settings page. The framework picks them automatically and saves the values in then database. Use the fw_get_db_ext_settings_option() function
to get options values from the database. This file cant be overwritten from the theme, thats why it wasnt
placed in the options/ directory.

views/ - Contains extension templates.


Inside extension class you can render a view like this
$this->render_view(template-name);. The views can be overwritten in the theme by creating
{theme-name}/framework-customizations/extension/{extension-name}/views/{template-name}.
static/ - Contains styles, scripts, images and other static files. Some files can be overwritten in the
theme, some not, it depends how they are enqueued in the extension, using $this->locate_URI() or
$this->get_declared_URI().
includes/ - All .php files within this directory will be included automatically.
Load Locations
Extensions are loaded from the following directories and in the following order:
1. framework/extensions/
2. Custom directories specified via the fw_extensions_locations filter
3. {parent-theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/

Custom Load Locations
You can load extensions from any directory via the fw_extensions_locations filter. For e.g. to load extensions
from your own plugin:

3.3. Extensions

Unyson Framework, Release

/**
* @internal
*/
function _filter_plugin_awesome_extensions($locations) {
$locations[ dirname(__FILE__) . '/extensions' ]
=
plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . 'extensions';
return $locations;
}
add_filter('fw_extensions_locations', '_filter_plugin_awesome_extensions');

Child Extensions
Child Extensions are used to split a big extension into sub-extensions to separate the functionalities or when some
extensions are tightly connected to the parent extension and cant exist without it, so they will be loaded only if the
parent extension exists, is loaded and activated.
A child extension can be located in any load location but must be on the same relative path. Here are some examples
where an extension can exists and where its child extensions can be placed:
1. If the hello extension is located in framework, the child extensions can be placed in: framework, parent theme
and child theme.
framework/
-extensions/
-hello/
-extensions/
-hello-child/
-...
-parent-theme/

2. If the hello extension is located in parent theme, the child extensions can be placed in: parent theme and child
theme.

3.3.2 Create Extension


To create an extension:
1. Create a directory with the name of the extension in any extensions/ directory with a manifest.php file in
it.
Internally that will create an instance of FW_Extension_Default class. Optionally, you can
place a file class-fw-extension-{extension-name}.php with the following contents,
in the newly created directory and start create some advanced functionality:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
class FW_Extension_{Extension_Name} extends FW_Extension
{
// ...
}

2. To make the extension visible on the Extensions list page (by default it is hidden) set the manifest display
parameter to true.
3. Make sure you understand what the manifest standalone parameter means.

developers face in their day to day work.
Disable Child Extensions
Validate Child Extensions

Disable Child Extensions


Child extensions will not be activated if parent extension will return false; from _init().
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
class FW_Extension_Example extends FW_Extension

3.3. Extensions

51

Unyson Framework, Release

{
/**
* @internal
*/
protected function _init()
{
// ...
if ($this->something_is_wrong()) {
return false; // prevent child extensions activation
}
}
}

Validate Child Extensions


The parent extension has the possibility to check each child extension if its valid or not. If the child
extension is not valid, it will not be activated.
To do that, the parent extension must overwrite the
_child_extension_is_valid() method.
The method should return true if child extension is valid, and false if not.
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
class FW_Extension_Example extends FW_Extension
{
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function _child_extension_is_valid($child_extension_instance)
{
// force child extensions to extend some custom class, instead of FW_Extension
return is_subclass_of($child_extension_instance, 'FW_Ext_Demo_Custom_Class');
}
// ...
}

3.4 Components
3.4.1 Introduction
The Unyson framework core has three components:
Theme
Backend
Extensions
Accessing one of the cores component is done in this way:
fw()->{$component}->{$method}()

fw() returns the framework object, this being the only way to access the framework core.

3.4.2 Theme
The Theme component makes the connection between the theme and the framework. The working directory is
framework-customizations/theme/ within child and parent themes.

locate_path($rel_path) - search full path of the file by a given relative path. Will search in the child
theme then in the parent theme.
echo fw()->theme->locate_path('/custom.php');
// prints '/.../wp-content/themes/scratch-theme/framework-customizations/theme/custom.php'

3.4.3 Backend
Admin side functionality:
option_type($type) - get instance of a registered option type.
$option_type_text = fw()->backend->option_type('text');
echo $option_type_text->render('demo', array( 'value' => 'Demo Value' ));

render_option($id, $option, $data = array(), $design = default) - render option html together with label, desc and help.
Attention: Does not accept container options.

FW_Cache

Use cache to store frequently accessed data. Cache is just a big array and has one useful feature: it will automatically
unset array keys if the php memory is close to full. So it is safe to store in it as much data as you want (of course the
maximum allowed by php, by default is ~100Mb).
function get_foo_bar() {
$cache_key = 'foo/bar';
try {
/**
* This will throw an exception if the key was not found
*/
return FW_Cache::get($cache_key);
} catch (FW_Cache_Not_Found_Exception $e) {
$data = _generate_foo_bar_data();
FW_Cache::set($cache_key, $data);
return $data;
}
}

Attention: Dont do this:


...
} catch (FW_Cache_Not_Found_Exception $e) {
FW_Cache::set($cache_key, _generate_foo_bar_data());
return FW_Cache::get($cache_key);
}

because FW_Cache::set(...) can fail or the data that was set can be removed after automatically memory
free.

FW_Form

A convenient way to create forms. You can create a form class instance and give it three callbacks that control the
render, validate and save process.
$my_form = new
'render'
'validate'
'save'
));

FW_Form('<unique-id>', array(
=> '_my_form_render',
=> '_my_form_validate',
=> '_my_form_save',

function _my_form_render() {
$input_value = FW_Request::POST('demo');
echo '<input type="text" name="demo" maxlength="10" value="'. esc_attr($input_value) .'">';
}
function _my_form_validate($errors) {
$input_value = FW_Request::POST('demo');
if (fw_strlen($input_value) > 10) {
$errors['demo'] = __('Value cannot be more that 10 characters long', '{domain}');

3.5. Helpers

63

Unyson Framework, Release

}
return $errors;
}
function _my_form_save() {
$input_value = FW_Request::POST('demo');
// do something with value
}
echo $my_form->render();
// this will output:
// <form ... ><input type="text" name="demo" maxlength="10" value=""></form>

Customize errors By default the errors are displayed right before the <form> tag. You can display the errors in
your own way and cancel the default display. Before the errors are displayed, an action is fired so you can use it:
/**
* @param FW_Form $form
* @internal
*/
function _action_theme_fw_form_errors_display($form) {
/**
* Once the errors was accessed/requested
* the form will cancel/abort the default errors display
*/
$errors = $form->get_errors();
echo '<ul class="your-custom-errors-class">';
foreach ($errors as $input_name => $error_message) {
echo fw_html_tag(
'li',
array('data-input-name' => $input_name),
$error_message
);
}
echo '</ul>';
}
add_action('fw_form_display_errors_frontend', '_action_theme_fw_form_errors_display');

Ajax submit You can use this script to make FW_Form ajax submittable.
Enqueue the script in frontend:
// file: {theme}/inc/static.php
// https://github.com/ThemeFuse/Theme-Includes
if (!is_admin()) {
wp_enqueue_script(
'fw-form-helpers',
fw_get_framework_directory_uri('/static/js/fw-form-helpers.js')
);
wp_localize_script('fw-form-helpers', 'fwAjaxUrl', admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php', 'relative' ));
}

Run the initialization script:

// Open the script code and check the `opts` variable

});
});

FW_Flash_Messages

You can display small messages that will be stored on the users session for exactly one additional request. This is
useful when processing a form: you want to redirect and have a special message shown on the next page. These types
of messages are called flash messages.
Adding a flash message
FW_Flash_Messages::add(
'unique-id',
__('Test message', '{domain}'),
'success' // available types: info, warning, error, success
);

Displaying flash messages

In admin the messages are displayed as admin notices.


In frontend the messages are printed in footer, then a javascript tries to find on the page the content container and move
the messages in it. This position guessing sometimes fails when the page has some special html structure and the
messages may not be visible or will be displayed in an inappropriate place. You can choose a place in your template
and display the messages manually:
<?php if (defined('FW')) { FW_Flash_Messages::_print_frontend(); } ?>

3.5.3 JavaScript Helpers


Useful javascript functions and classes. The main helper is fw, an object containing constants, methods and classes.
To use these helpers, add fw to your script dependencies:
wp_register_script(..., ..., array('fw'));

General
Options Modal
Confirmation
Queueing confirms
Same confirm multiple times
Events

General
General javaScript helpers:
fw.FW_URI - URI to the framework directory.
fw.SITE_URI - URI to the site root directory.
fw.intval(value) - alternative to php intval(). Returns 0 on failure, instead of NaN like parseInt() does.
fw.md5(string) - calculate md5 hash of the string.
fw.loading - show loading on the page.
3.5. Helpers

67

Unyson Framework, Release

Tip: Useful when doing AJAX requests and want to inform your users about that.
fw.loading.show();
setTimeout(function(){
fw.loading.hide();
}, 3000);

The show() and hide() methods can be called multiple times. If show() is called 10 times, then
hide() should be called 10 times for loading to disappear. This is done for cases when this helper
is used by multiple asynchronous scripts, the loading should not disappear until all scripts complete
the work.
fw.capitalizeFirstLetter(text) - capitalizes the first letter of a string.
fw.ops(properties, value, obj, delimiter) - same as fw_aks(...) from PHP Helpers,
but for javascript objects.
var obj = {foo: {}};
fw.ops('foo/bar', 'demo', obj);
console.log(obj); // {foo: {bar: 'demo'}}

fw.opg(properties, obj, defaultValue, delimiter) - same as fw_akg(...) from PHP


Helpers, but for javascript objects.
var obj = {foo: {bar: 'hello'}};
console.log( fw.opg('foo/bar', obj) ); // 'hello'

fw.randomMD5() - generate random md5.


Options Modal
Modal with options. Display html generated from a given options array. After the user completes the form and presses
Save, values are available as a javascript object.
var modal = new fw.OptionsModal({
title: 'Custom Title',
options: [
{'test_1': {
'type': 'text',
'label': 'Test1'
}},
{'test_2': {
'type': 'textarea',
'label': 'Test2'
}}
],
values: {
'test_1': 'Default 1',
'test_2': 'Default 2'
},
size: 'small' // 'medium', 'large'
});

Unyson Framework, Release

// listen for values change


modal.on('change:values', function(modal, values) {
console.log(values);
});
// replace values
modal.set('values', {
'test_1': 'Custom 1',
'test_2': 'Custom 2'
});
modal.open();

Note: Make sure to enqueue scripts and styles for the options you use in modal. Usually it is done before page is
displayed.
fw()->backend->enqueue_options_static($modal_options);

Confirmation
General purpose confirmation mechanism that operates with jQuery.Deferred.
var confirm = fw.soleConfirm.create({
severity: 'info', // warning | info
message: 'Some message to display', // or null, if you don't want any
backdrop: null // null | false | true
});
confirm.result; // Instance of jQuery.Deferred factory
confirm.result.then(function (confirm_instance) {
// confirm_instance is same as confirm
// Handle success branch
});
confirm.result.fail(function (confirm_instance) {
// Handle fail branch
});
confirm.show();

Queueing confirms

Confirm is actually using fw.soleModal under the hood, which is queued one after the other.
var confirm1 = fw.soleConfirm.create();
var confirm2 = fw.soleConfirm.create();
confirm1.show();
confirm2.show();
confirm1.hide(); // That's when the confirm2 will actually pop in, results are buffered

3.5. Helpers

69

Unyson Framework, Release

Same confirm multiple times

Because of the way jQuery.Deferred works, one single confirm instance will resolve its promise exactly one
time. If you really need to use the same confirm once again - just reset it.
var confirm = fw.soleConfirm.create();
confirm.result.then(function () {
// handle success
// will be triggered just once
});
confirm.show();
// ...
// after the user takes his choice
// ...
confirm.show(); // will throw an error!
confirm.reset();
// you'll have to attach your listeners once again, the old one
// will already not be around
confirm.result.then(function () {
// one more handler
});
confirm.show(); // will work just fine

Events
fwEvents is a global object on which you can trigger or listen custom events. This way different scripts can communicate with each other.
// script-1.js
fwEvents.on('script-2:message', function(data){
console.log('script-1 received a message from script-2: '+ data.message);
});
// script-2.js
fwEvents.trigger('script-2:message', {message: 'Hello World!'});

3.5.4 CSS Helpers


Useful css classes for admin side. To use these helpers, add fw to your style dependencies:
wp_register_style(..., ..., array('fw'));

Easily realign text to components with text alignment classes.


<p
<p
<p
<p
<p

class="fw-text-left">Left aligned text.</p>


class="fw-text-center">Center aligned text.</p>

class="fw-text-nowrap">No wrap text.</p>

Transformation classes

Transform text in components with text capitalization classes.


<p class="fw-text-lowercase">Lowercased text.</p>
<p class="fw-text-uppercase">Uppercased text.</p>
<p class="fw-text-capitalize">Capitalized text.</p>

Responsive images

Images can be made responsive-friendly via the addition of the .fw-img-responsive class. This applies
max-width: 100%; and height: auto; to the image so that it scales nicely to the parent element.
<img

src="..."

class="fw-img-responsive"

alt="image Responsive" >

Delete icon

Use the generic delete icon for links that delete something.
<a href="#" class="dashicons fw-x"></a>

3.5. Helpers

Quick floats

Float an element to the left or right with a class. !important is included to avoid specificity issues. Classes can
also be used as mixins.
<div class="fw-pull-left">...</div>
<div class="fw-pull-right">...</div>

Center content blocks

Set an element to display:

block and center via margin. Available as a mixin and class.

<div class="fw-center-block">...</div>

Clearfix

Easily clear floats by adding .fw-clearfix to the parent element. Utilizes the micro clearfix as popularized by
Nicolas Gallagher. Can also be used as a mixin.
<div class="fw-clearfix">...</div>

Showing and hiding content

Force an element to be shown or hidden. These classes use !important to avoid specificity conflicts, just like
the quick floats. They are only available for block level toggling. They can also be used as mixins. Furthermore,
.fw-invisible can be used to toggle only the visibility of an element, meaning its display is not modified and the
element can still affect the flow of the document.
<div class="fw-show">...</div>
<div class="fw-hidden">...</div>

Image replacement

Utilize the .fw-text-hide class or mixin to help replace an elements text content with a background image.
<h1 class="fw-text-hide">Custom heading</h1>

Grid system
Css helpers includes a responsive, fluid grid system that appropriately scales up to 12 columns as the device or viewport
size increases. Grid systems are used for creating layouts through a series of rows and columns that house your content.
Heres how the grid system works:
Use rows to create horizontal groups of columns.
Content should be placed within columns, and only columns may be immediate children of rows.
Predefined grid classes like .fw-row and .fw-col-xs-4 are available for quickly making grid layouts.
Grid columns are created by specifying the number of twelve available columns you wish to span. For example,
three equal columns would use three .fw-col-xs-4.

72

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

If more than 12 columns are placed within a single row, each group of extra columns will, as one unit, wrap onto
a new line.
Grid classes apply to devices with screen widths greater than or equal to the breakpoint sizes, and override grid
classes targeted at smaller devices. Therefore, applying any .fw-col-md- class to an element will not only
affect its styling on medium devices but also on large devices if a .fw-col-lg- class is not present.
This grid system was inspired from bootstrap with some modifications:
Added .fw- prefix to classes
Changed media queries screen sizes
Rows are used without containers (no .container and .container-fluid)
Rows have no padding
Media queries

We use the following media queries to create the key breakpoints to a narrower set of devices.
/* Extra small devices (phones) */
@media (max-width: 782px) { ... }
/* Small devices (tablets) */
@media (min-width: 783px) and (max-width: 900px) { ... }
/* Medium devices (desktops) */
@media (min-width: 901px) and (max-width: 1199px) { ... }
/* Large devices (large desktops) */
@media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }

Columns

Using a set of .fw-col-* classes, you can create grid systems that look good on any device:
.fw-col-xs-* - extra small devices (phones).
.fw-col-sm-* - small devices (tablets)
.fw-col-md-* - medium devices (desktops)
.fw-col-lg-* - large devices (large desktops)
Tip: More details about grid system and examples can be found here.

Responsive utilities
For faster mobile-friendly development, use these utility classes for showing and hiding content by device via media
query.
Important: Try to use these on a limited basis and avoid creating entirely different versions of the same site. Instead,
use them to complement each devices presentation.

3.6 Manifest
3.6.1 Introduction
The Framework, Theme and every Extension has a manifest. The manifest provides important information like: title,
version, dependencies, etc.
The Framework generates a manifest for it self, the theme and every extension with default values automatically. You
can overwrite the default values by creating a manifest.php file in the root folder of the theme or extension and
define the $manifest array.

3.6.2 Framework
The frameworks manifest is located in framework/manifest.php and can be accessed like this:
fw()->manifest->get('version');

It supports the following parameters:


<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
$manifest = array();
$manifest['name']
$manifest['uri']
$manifest['description']

Built-in shortcodes
Unyson comes with a set of built-in shortcodes like accordion, button, map, testimonials and others.
All shortcodes are located in {some-extension}/shortcodes/ but the vast majority of them are located in
the shortcodes extension (framework/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes). They can be modified by
overwriting or disabled
Overwriting shortcodes
Some shortcode files can be overwritten (meaning that the files can be swapped). This permits shortcode customization. The files that can be overwritten are config file, options file, static file and view file.
There are three places where the shortcode files are searched until found: child theme (if active), parent theme and
framework.
If the shortcode is built-in (declared in the framework) the files will be first looked up in the child theme (if
active), after that in the parent theme, and in the end the framework will search in the shortcodes declared path
If the shortcode is declared in the parent theme the files will be first searched in the child theme (if active) and
then in the parent theme (where it was declared)
If the shortcode is declared in the child theme the files will be searched only at its declared path
For a better understanding lets look at an example: Imagine that there is a shortcode demo located in the shortcodes
extension (framework/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/demo). When the framework loads its
files (options.php for this example) it will follow these simple steps:

1. If a child theme is active it will first look in {your-child-theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shor

2. If
it
did
not
find
the
file
in
the
child
theme
it
will
search
in
{your-parent-theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/demo/opti
3. If it did not find the file in the parent theme it will search at the shortcodes declared path
framework/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/demo/options.php

78

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

Disabling shortcodes
A
shortcode
can
be
disabled
via
the
fw_ext_shortcodes_disable_shortcodes
filter.
A
good
place
to
put
the
code
for
the
disabling
would
be
in
{your-theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/hooks.php. It should
look something like the following:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
function _filter_theme_disable_default_shortcodes($to_disable) {
$to_disable[] = 'accordion';
$to_disable[] = 'button';
return $to_disable;
}
add_filter('fw_ext_shortcodes_disable_shortcodes', '_filter_theme_disable_default_shortcodes');

Creating a new shortcode


If overwriting a built-in shortcode does not suit your needs then you might want to create a new shortcode. For that
you will first have to decide where to place it:
If you are developing a unyson extension and you want to offer some functionality
from
the
extension
via
a
shortcode
you
should
create
the
it
at
framework-customizations/extensions/{your-extension}/shortcodes/{your-shortcode}.
One such example from the built-in extensions is the slider extension and its shortcode.
If the shortcode that you want to create is not extension specific but more generalist (like the button, tabs ones are) than you should place it the shortcodes extensions
(framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{your-shortcodes}).
Directory structure
{shortcode-name}
---class-fw-shortcode-{shortcode-name}.php # optional
---config.php # optional
---options.php # optional
---static.php # optional
---static # optional
|
---css # you can put your css files here
|
---img
|
|
---page_builder.png # used as the page builder icon
|
---js # you can put your js files here
---views
---view.php

Attention: The directory name of the shortcode folder will become its tag, hyphens will be replaced with
underscores. This means that if you name the shortcode demo-shortcode it will be transformed into
[demo_shortcode].

Unyson Framework, Release

Config File

The shortcode configuration is a file named config.php placed inside the root directory of the shortcode. It contains
an array that must be stored in a $cfg variable and is typically used to provide configurations for the visual page
builder.
$cfg = array(
'page_builder' => array(
'title'
=> __('Demo
'description'
=> __('Demo
'tab'
=> __('Demo
'popup_size'
=> 'small',

Shortcode', '{domain}'),
shortcode description', '{domain}'),
Elements', '{domain}'),
// can be large, medium or small

/*
// Icon examples
// Note: By default is loaded {your-shortcode}/static/img/page_builder.png
'icon' => 'http://.../image-16x16.png', // background color should be #8c8c8c
'icon' => 'dashicons dashicons-admin-site',
'icon' => 'unycon unycon-crown',
'icon' => 'fa fa-btc',
*/

/*
// Title Template examples
//
// Syntax:
// * {{- variable }} - Output with html escape
// * {{= variable }} - Output raw (without html escape)
// * {{ if (execute.any(javascript, code)) { console.log('Hi'); } }}
//
// Available variables:
// * title - shortcode title (from config)
// * o - an object with all shortcode options values
'title_template' => '{{- title }} Lorem {{- o.option_id }} ipsum {{= o["option-id"] }}',
'title_template' => '{{- title }}: {{- o.label }}{{ if (o.target == "_blank") { }} <span clas
*/
)
);

For the shortcode to appear in the page builder the config array contains a special page_builder key that holds an
array with the following data:
title - the title that will appear in the shortcode box.

80

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

description - the text that will be shown in a tooltip when hovering the shortcode box.

tab - the builder tab in which the shortcode box will appear.

3.7. Built-in Extensions

81

popup_size - the size of the popup in which the shortcode options will be displayed.
Allowed values are large | medium | small. This parameter is optional and the default is
set to small.

Builder icon

To set an icon for the shortcode box, put an image named page_builder.png
{your-shortcode}/static/img/ directory. The image should have the size of 16x16 px.

Options file

The shortcode directory can contain a file named options.php with correctly formed options:
$options = array(
'demo_text'
'label'
'desc'
'help'
'type'
),
'demo_select'
'label'
'desc'
'type'
'choices'
'c1'
'c2'
'c3'
),
'value'
)
);

=>
=>
=>
=>
=>

array(
__('Demo text label', '{domain}'),
__('Demo text description', '{domain}'),
__('Demo text help', '{domain}'),
'text'

=>
=>
=>
=>
=>
=>
=>
=>

array(
__('Demo select label', '{domain}'),
__('Demo select description', '{domain}'),
'select',
array(
__('Choice 1', '{domain}'),
__('Choice 2', '{domain}'),
__('Choice 3', '{domain}')

=> 'c2'

If it does, then it will have an icon when dragged into the builders canvas area, indicating that the shortcode can be
edited:

3.7. Built-in Extensions

83

Unyson Framework, Release

When clicking either the edit icon or the shortcode itself, a modal window will open containing the declared options:

The saved options values will be passed into the view file.
Default view file

By default, when WordPress wants to render a shortcode built into the framework, it will serve the html from the
default view file located in {your-shortcode}/views/view.php. 3 variables are passes into the view file :
$atts, $content and $tag.
Tip: More information can be found in the cookbook section.

84

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

Static file

A shortcode can have a static.php file that is included when the shortcode is rendered. It is meant for enqueuing
static files. Here is an example of a basic static.php file:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');

// find the uri to the shortcode folder


$uri = fw_get_template_customizations_directory_uri('/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/demo-shortcode
wp_enqueue_style(
'fw-shortcode-demo-shortcode',
$uri . '/static/css/styles.css'
);
wp_enqueue_script(
'fw-shortcode-demo-shortcode',
$uri . '/static/js/scripts.js'
);

If you want to include custom styles and scripts for a existing shortcode, overwrite the static.php file by creating
framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/demo-shortcode/static.php.
Attention: All of the above is valid only in the case that the _render method from the class file was not
overwritten.

Class file

When creating a shortcode folder with all the required files, the framework makes an instance of FW_Shortcode to
ensure the correct default functionality, some of which default functionality can be overwritten by creating a class in
the shortcode directory that extends FW_Shortcode.
Note:
The
class
file
must
respect
the
following
class-fw-shortcode-{your-shortcode-folder-name}.php.

naming

convention:

The
class
inside
the
class
file
must
respect
FW_Shortcode_{Your_Shortcode_Folder_Name}.

naming

convention:

the

following

Replace the hyphens with underscores in the class name.

Note: The framework replaces hyphens with underscores when registering the shortcode, so your-shortcode
will be transformed to [your_shortcode].
So in order to create a class for the [demo_shortcode] shortcode, we need to create a file
demo-shortcode/class-fw-shortcode-demo-shortcode.php and within the file create a class that
extends FW_Shortcode:
class FW_Shortcode_Demo_Shortcode extends FW_Shortcode
{
// ...
}

The new class inherits some usefull methods like:


get_tag() - returns the shortcodes tag.

3.7. Built-in Extensions

Unyson Framework, Release

get_declared_path($rel_path = ) - returns the path to where the shortcode folder was declared.
get_declared_URI($rel_path = ) - returns the uri to where shortcode folder was declared.
locate_path($rel_path = ) - searches a rel path given as an argument first in child theme then in
parent theme and last in framework. Returns the found path or false if not found. See overwriting for more
details.
locate_URI($rel_path = ) - does the same as locate_path with uris.
get_config($key = null) - returns the shortcodes whole overwritten config array, or just a particular
key of its given as an argument.
get_options() - returns the shortcodes overwritten options array, if there is any.
The methods that are most prone to be overwritten are:
_init() - is called when the FW_Shortcode instance for the shortcode is created. Useful for loading other
php files (custom option types, libraries, etc.).
_render($atts, $content, $tag) - returns the html that will be displayed when the shortcode will
be executed by WordPress. Useful for changing the default behavior with a custom one.
Tip: More information about this can be found in the cookbook section.

Creating a simple shortcode

This example will go through creating the [hr] (horizontal ruler) shortcode in a few simple steps:
1. Create a hr folder in framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/.
2. Create a config file inside that folder:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
$cfg = array(
'page_builder' =>
'title'
'description'
'tab'
)
);

array(
=> __('Horizontal Ruler', '{domain}'),
=> __('Creates a \'hr\' html tag', '{domain}'),
=> __('Demo Elements', '{domain}'),

Note: At this point the shortcode should appear in the Demo Elements tab of the layout builder as
shown below:

Tip: To add an icon to the shortcode see the icon section.


3. Create a views folder and the view file inside it:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden'); ?>
<hr>

The [hr] shorcode is completed! The directory structure of the shortcode is as shown below:
framework-customizations/
-extensions/
-shortcodes/
-shortcodes/
-hr/
-config.php
-views/
-view.php

Creating a shortcode with options

This example will go through creating the [button] shortcode.


1. Create a button folder in framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/
2. Create a config file inside that folder:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');

$cfg = array(
'page_builder' => array(
'title'
=> __('Button', '{domain}'),
'description'
=> __('Creates a button with choosable label, size and style', '{dom
'tab'
=> __('Demo Elements', '{domain}'),
)
);

Note: At this point the shortcode should appear in the Demo Elements tab of the layout builder as
shown below:

Tip: To add an icon to the shortcode see the icon section.


3. Create an options file with the options for label, size and style:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
$options = array(
'label' => array(
'label'
=> __('Label', '{domain}'),
'desc'
=> __('The button label', '{domain}'),
'type'
=> 'text',
'value'
=> __('Click me!', '{domain}')
),
'size' => array(
'label'
=> __('Size', '{domain}'),
'desc'
=> __('The button size', '{domain}'),
'type'
=> 'select',
'choices' => array(
'big'
=> __('Big', '{domain}'),
'medium' => __('Medium', '{domain}'),
'small' => __('Small', '{domain}')
),
'value'
=> 'medium'
),
'style' => array(
'label'
=> __('Style', '{domain}'),
'desc'
=> __('The button style', '{domain}'),
'type'
=> 'select',
'choices' => array(
'primary'
=> __('Primary', '{domain}'),
'secondary' => __('Secondary', '{domain}')
)
)
);

Now, when clicking the shortcode inside the canvas area of the layout builder a pop-up window
containting the options will appear:

4. Create a views folder and the view file inside it. Make use of the $atts variable that is avaialble inside the
view, it contains all the options values that the user has selected in the pop-up:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden'); ?>
<button class="button button-<?php echo $atts['size']; ?> button-<?php echo $atts['style'];
<?php echo $atts['label']; ?>
</button>

Tip: For more information about the view variables check out the default view section.

-theme/
-shortcodes/
-button/
-config.php
-options.php
-views/
-view.php

Creating an advanced shortcode with a custom class

This ex will go through creating a [table_builder] shortcode, it will make use of its own custom option type:
1. Create a table-builder folder in framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/.
2. Create a config file inside that folder:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
$cfg = array(

'description'
'tab'
'popup_size'
)

array(
=> __('Table Builder', '{domain}'),
=> __('Creates custom tables', '{domain}'),
=> __('Demo Elements', '{domain}'),
=> 'large'

);

Note: At this point the shortcode should appear in the Demo Elements tab of the layout builder as
shown below:

Tip: To add an icon to the shortcode see the icon section


3. A custom option type is needed for the shortcode to be created, because the ones that exist in the framework do
not suit our needs.
(a) Create an includes folder and a table-builder option type inside it.
(b) Create a custom class for the shortcode and override the _init() method, to load the custom
option type class file.
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
class FW_Shortcode_Table_Builder extends FW_Shortcode
{
/**
* @internal
*/
public function _init()
{
if (is_admin()) {
$this->load_option_type();
}
}

private function load_option_type()


{
require $this->locate_path('/includes/fw-option-type-table-builder/class-fw-op
}
// ...

90

(c) Create an options file with the custom option type:


<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
$options = array(
'table' => array(
'type' => 'table-builder',
'label' => false,
'desc' => false,
)
);

Note: At this point, when clicking the shortcode inside the canvas area of the layout builder a pop-up
window containting the options will appear:

4. Create the view file and make use of the custom option types value.

Enqueue shortcode dynamic css in page head

When the shortcode has options that affect its css, you can populate the style="..." attribute in view.php:
// file:: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{name}/views/view.php
<p style="color: <?php echo esc_attr($atts['color']) ?>;" >Hello, World!</p>

A better solution would be to assign shortcode an unique id and enqueue in head css for that id.
1. Add a hidden option that will generate an unique id

// file: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{name}/options.ph
$options = array(
'id'
=> array( 'type' => 'unique' ),
'color' => array( 'type' => 'color-picker' ),
...
);

2. Output the id in view

// file: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{name}/views/view
<p id="shortcode-<?php echo esc_attr($atts['id']); ?>" >Hello, World!</p>

3. Enqueue the main style

// file: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{name}/static.php
wp_enqueue_style(
'theme-shortcode-{name}',
fw_ext('shortcodes')->locate_URI('/shortcodes/{name}/static/css/styles.css')
);

4. Enqueue the dynamic style

// file: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/shortcodes/shortcodes/{name}/static.php
...
if (!function_exists('_action_theme_shortcode_{name}_enqueue_dynamic_css')):
/**
* @internal
* @param array $data
*/
function _action_theme_shortcode_{name}_enqueue_dynamic_css($data) {
$shortcode = '{name}';
$atts = shortcode_parse_atts( $data['atts_string'] );
$atts = fw_ext_shortcodes_decode_attr($atts, $shortcode, $data['post']->ID);
wp_add_inline_style(
'theme-shortcode-'. $shortcode,
'#shortcode-'. $atts['id'] .' { '.
'color: '. $atts['color'] .';'.
' } '
);
}

Create a simple slider type


To
create
simple
slider
type,
create
a
child
extension.
In
our
case
the
slider
type
is
demo-slider,
so
the
child
extension
directory
will
be
framework-customizations/extensions/media/extensions/slider/extensions/demo-slider.

Important: Make sure you have framework-customizations/extensions/media/extensions/slider/extension


with the following contents:
<?php $manifest['standalone'] = true;

Configuration

The configuration file config.php contains the following parameters:


/**
* Specify available population methods.
*
* There are 4 built-in population methods:
Populate with posts
* 'posts'
'categories'
Populate with categories
*
Populate with tags
* 'tags'
Populate with custom content provided by the user
* 'custom'
*/
$cfg['population_methods'] = array('posts', 'categories', 'tags', 'custom');
/**
* Specify what media types the slider supports.
*
* There are 2 media types available:
* 'image' Supports images
* 'video' Supports videos
*/
$cfg['multimedia_types'] = array('image');

Static files

Scripts, styles and images are stored in the static/ directory.


static/images/ - directory for images. This directory has 2 special images that you should create:
thumb.jpg - small image with frontend preview of this slider type. Is displayed on the admin side in
Slider Type choices.
preview.jpg - a bigger image with frontend preview of this slider type. It is displayed when the user
hovers the thumb.jpg in the WordPress admin.
static/css/ - directory for styles. They will be automatically enqueued in frontend.
static/js/ - directory for scripts. They will be automatically enqueued in frontend.
Note: Styles and scripts are enqueued in alphabetical orders. You cannot set dependencies for them. So if you want
for e.g. c.js to be enqueued before b.js, you must rename it, or prefix it with some number or letter a-c.js.

94

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

For demo-sloder to work:

1. Download this script in framework-customizations/extensions/media/extensions/slider/extensions/

2. Download this style in framework-customizations/extensions/media/extensions/slider/extensions/d


Options

Optionally, if your slider have extra options, you can create 2 types of option files within options/ directory:
options.php - extra options shown after default options on add and edit slider page.
{population-method}.php - extra options for concrete population method, shown after default options
on edit slider page.
Template

View the file that contains the slider template for frontend, is located in views/{slider-type}.php. Here is an
example for our demo-slider:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
/**
* @var array $data
*/

$unique_id = 'demo-slider-'. fw_unique_increment();


?>
<?php if (isset($data['slides'])): ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($){ $('#<?php echo $unique_id ?>').unslider(); });
</script>
<div id="<?php echo $unique_id ?>">
<ul>
<?php foreach ($data['slides'] as $slide): ?>
<li>
<?php if ($slide['multimedia_type'] === 'video') : ?>
<?php echo fw_oembed_get($slide['src'], $dimensions); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<img src="<?php echo fw_resize($slide['src'], $dimensions['width'], $dimensio
alt="<?php echo esc_attr($slide['title']) ?>"
width="<?php echo esc_attr($dimensions['width']); ?>"
height="<?php echo $dimensions['height']; ?>" />
<?php endif; ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

The $data variable that is available in view, has the following structure:
$data = array(
'slides' => array(
array(
'title' => 'Slide Title',
'multimedia_type' => 'video|image',
'src'
=> 'Slide src',
'extra' => array(

/**
* This array can be empty, it depends on population method

),
...
),
'settings' => array(
'title'
=> 'Slider Title',
'slider_type'
=> '{slider-type}',
'population_method' => 'posts|categories|tags|custom',
'post_id'
=> 10, // ID of the slider (slider is a custom post)
'extra' => array(
/**
* This array can be empty.
* Or will have something in it
* if user set custom options for slider in options/options.php
*/
'extra-slider-key' => 'Extra slider values',
...
)
)
);

Create advanced slider type


If you want to create an advanced slider with your own extra logic, you must create a class file named
class-fw-extension-{slider-type}.php within the slider type directory.

In this case the slider type is demo-slider, so the class file will be located in
framework-customizations/extensions/media/extensions/slider/extensions/bx-slider/class-fw-e
and will contain:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
class FW_Extension_Demo_Slider extends FW_Slider {
/** @internal */
public function _init() {}
}

Then you can take a look at the FW_Slider methods to learn what are they doing and decide which one you will
overwrite.
Frontend render
There are two ways you can display a slider in frontend:
1. Builder shortcode - the main slider extension automatically creates a [slider] shortcode which is available
in builder in the Media Elements tab.
2. Render from code - the slider extension has a public method that you can use to render a slider on frontend.
fw()->extensions->get('slider')->render_slider($slider_post_id, array(
'width' => 300,

Overwrite the Walker


1. Create the walker class

// file:: {theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/megamenu/includes/class-fw-ext-mega-menu-custom
class FW_Ext_Mega_Menu_Custom_Walker extends FW_Ext_Mega_Menu_Walker
{

Item Custom Options


1. Overwrite these options in your theme.
2. Get the saved db value (it has the same structure as multi-picker option-type value)

Views
Templates are located in the views/ directory. Here is the list of templates that you can customize:
single.php
Portfolio
course
single
post
template.
By
default
is
used
single.php from the theme root directory,
you can overwrite it by creating
framework-customizations/extensions/portfolio/views/single.php.
taxonomy.php
Portfolio
category
template.
By
default
is
used
taxonomy.php from the theme root directory,
you can overwrite it by creating
framework-customizations/extensions/portfolio/views/taxonomy.php.
content.php - Default portfolio single page template content.
It is loaded if the
framework-customizations/extensions/portfolio/views/single.php doesnt exist
and is used single.php from the theme root directory. The content of this view is rendered using worpdress
the_content filter, when the course single page is loaded.

3.7.7 Backup & Demo Content


This extension lets you create an automated backup schedule, import demo content or even create a demo content
archive for migration purposes.
Demo Content Install
Create Demos
* Demos bundled in theme
* Demos on remote server
Hooks

Demo Content Install


The demo content install might be very useful for your clients. After they install the theme, they wont need to
configure and create content from scratch but instead they can install the demo content youve created. Their site will
look exactly like your theme demo page, and they can just start to modify and adapt the existing content.
Create Demos

In order to create a demo content archive, just create a Content Backup.


Tip: Before creating a Content Backup for Demo Install use a plugin to remove post revisions.
The next step is to let your users view and select which demo content to install. This page is created in the WordPress
admin under Tools > Demo Content Install if the theme has at least one demo content available. The demo content
archives can be placed in theme or can be downloaded from a remote server.
Demos bundled in theme
1. Create Content Backup
2. Extract the zip in {theme}/demo-content/{demo-name}/
3. Create {theme}/demo-content/{demo-name}/manifest.php with the following contents:

$manifest = array();
$manifest['title'] = __('Awesome Demo', '{domain}');
$manifest['screenshot'] = $uri . '/screenshot.png';
$manifest['preview_link'] = 'https://your-site.com/demo/awesome';

4. Go to Tools > Demo Content Install menu in the WordPress admin. The demo(s) should be listed on that page.
Demos on remote server
1. Create Content Backup
2. Upload the zip on your server (in any directory you want, for e.g. your-site.com/demo/)
3. Upload this download script, lets say in the same directory your-site.com/demo/
4. In the same directory with the download script, create a config.php file and add your demos in the following
format:
//
'demo-id' => '/path/to/demo.zip',
'awesome-demo' => dirname(__FILE__) .'/awesome-demo.zip',

5. Register the demo(s) in your theme. Add in {theme}/inc/hooks.php:


/**
* @param FW_Ext_Backups_Demo[] $demos
* @return FW_Ext_Backups_Demo[]
*/
function _filter_theme_fw_ext_backups_demos($demos) {
$demos_array = array(

'title' => __('Demo Title', '{domain}'),
'screenshot' => 'https://your-site.com/.../screnshot.png',
'preview_link' => 'https://your-site.com/demo/your-demo-id',
),
// ...
);
$download_url = 'https://your-site.com/path/to/download-script/';
foreach ($demos_array as $id => $data) {
$demo = new FW_Ext_Backups_Demo($id, 'piecemeal', array(
'url' => $download_url,
'file_id' => $id,
));
$demo->set_title($data['title']);
$demo->set_screenshot($data['screenshot']);
$demo->set_preview_link($data['preview_link']);
$demos[ $demo->get_id() ] = $demo;
unset($demo);

All built-in form builder item types can be found in framework/extensions/forms/includes/option-types/form
directory.
For e.g.
to overwrite the view for item type text (which is located in
framework/extensions/forms/includes/option-types/form-builder/items/text)
create framework-customizations/extensions/forms/form-builder/items/text/views/view.php.
Form Fields Container - The view for the container that wraps the form fields can be customized in
framework-customizations/extensions/forms/form-builder/views/items.php.

Email Content - The contents of the email that is sent after an user submitted the contact form can be customized
in framework-customizations/extensions/forms/extensions/contact-forms/views/email.php.
Create Form Builder Item Type
First, make sure you understand how the base builder works.
The Forms extension have a built-in form-builder option type (that can be found in the
framework-customizations/extensions/forms/form-builder/ directory) which is used by
the Contact Forms sub-extension. To create an item type for form-builder you have to look in its method called
item_type_is_valid() to see what class you must extend in order to be accepted by the builder.

Include the item type by creating the framework-customizations/extensions/forms/hooks.php file


with the following contents:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');

/** @internal */
function _action_theme_fw_ext_forms_include_custom_builder_items() {
require_once dirname(__FILE__) .'/includes/builder-items/yes-no/class-fw-option-type-form-builder
}
add_action('fw_option_type_form_builder_init', '_action_theme_fw_ext_forms_include_custom_builder_ite

At this point the item is working only in backend. If you save the form, add it in a page (or post) using Page Builder
3.7. Built-in Extensions

115

Unyson Framework, Release

and open that page in frontend, you will see the item attributes array.
To make item working in frontend, follow the instructions below:
Change the frontend_render() method:
class FW_Option_Type_Form_Builder_Item_Yes_No extends FW_Option_Type_Form_Builder_Item
{
...
public function frontend_render(array $item, $input_value)
{
if (is_null($input_value)) {
$input_value = $item['options']['default_value'];
}

return fw_render_view(
$this->locate_path(
// Search view in 'framework-customizations/extensions/forms/form-builder/items/yes-n
'/views/view.php',
// Use this view by default
dirname(__FILE__) .'/view.php'
),
array(
'item' => $item,
'input_value' => $input_value
)
);
}
}

Create the view framework-customizations/extensions/forms/includes/builder-items/yes-no/view


<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
/**
* @var array $item
* @var array $input_value
*/

$options = $item['options'];
?>
<div class="<?php echo esc_attr(fw_ext_builder_get_item_width('form-builder', $item['width'] .'/front
<div class="field-radio input-styled">
<label><?php echo fw_htmlspecialchars($item['options']['label']) ?>
<?php if ($options['required']): ?><sup>*</sup><?php endif; ?>
</label>
<div class="custom-radio">
<div class="options">
<?php
foreach (array('yes' => __('Yes', 'unyson'), 'no' => __('No', 'unyson')) as $value =>
<?php
$choice_attr = array(
'value' => $value,
'type' => 'radio',
'name' => $item['shortcode'],
'id' => 'rand-'. fw_unique_increment(),
);
if ($input_value === $value) {

116

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

$choice_attr['checked'] = 'checked';
}
?>
<input <?php echo fw_attr_to_html($choice_attr) ?> />
<label for="<?php echo esc_attr($choice_attr['id']) ?>"><?php echo $label ?></lab
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Change the frontend_validate() method:


class FW_Option_Type_Form_Builder_Item_Yes_No extends FW_Option_Type_Form_Builder_Item
{
...
public function frontend_validate(array $item, $input_value)
{
$options = $item['options'];
$messages = array(
'required' => str_replace(
array('{label}'),
array($options['label']),
__('This {label} field is required', 'unyson')
),
'not_existing_choice' => str_replace(
array('{label}'),
array($options['label']),
__('{label}: Submitted data contains not existing choice', 'unyson')
),
);
if ($options['required'] && empty($input_value)) {
return $messages['required'];
}
// check if has not existing choices
if (!empty($input_value) && !in_array($input_value, array('yes', 'no'))) {
return $messages['not_existing_choice'];
}
}
}

Now the field will be displayed in frontend as a radio box and the validation will work. The submitted value will be
used by the form type you chose when created the form, for e.g. the Contact Forms sub-extensions will send the value
in email.
You can inspect the built-in form items to learn what possibilities for customization are available (for e.g. what
methods from the extended class you can overwrite).

View
breadcrumbs.php is the template where you can define how the breadcrumbs will be shown on the page.
You can overwrite the default view with your own, by creating a breadcrumbs.php file in the extensions
views directory in the child theme.
Filters
fw_ext_breadcrumbs_build - in some cases you want to modify the breadcrumbs items that will be
rendered, or a specific item. This filter allows you to modify the breadcrumbs items array before it will be
rendered.

Option placeholders
In order to keep all sub-extensions options together, the SEO extension creates special options sections in:
Post Options - a section (box or tab) named SEO. In case the post options has the General box with id
general, the seo section will appear as a sub tab for that box, in other cases it creates a new box.
Term Options - a special section in Term Options.

Options Filters

All the filters have the same functionality, the only differences is where they add options.
fw_ext_seo_settings_options - use to add your own tab in Settings Options SEO tab.
fw_ext_seo_general_settings - use to add your own box in Settings Options SEO > General tab.
fw_ext_seo_general_setting_options - use to add your own options in Settings Options SEO >
General > General Settings box.
fw_ext_seo_post_type_options - add options in post options SEO box.
fw_ext_seo_taxonomy_options - add options in term options SEO section.
All filters have the same parameter $options array.
/**
* @internal
*/
function _filter_set_my_framework_titles_metas_tab( $options ) {
$options['my_id_tab'] = array(
'title'
=> __( 'My Options', '{domain}' ),

return $options;

add_filter( 'fw_ext_seo_settings_options', '_filter_set_my_framework_titles_metas_tab' );

Tags
The SEO extension has a list of built in SEO tags, but in some cases youll want to add your own. To add a new SEO
tag you have to use the fw_ext_seo_init_tags filter. This is the format for a SEO tag:
'tag_name' => array(
'desc' => __( 'My new tag', '{domain}' ),
'value' => '',
)

tag_name must be unique. This tag will be available as %%tag_name%%.

Add new tag


/**

'desc' => __( 'My new tag', '{domain}' ),
'value' => '',
);
return $tags;
}
add_filter( 'fw_ext_seo_init_tags', '_filter_add_my_seo_tag' );

The seo tags are created when the extension is initialized, in some cases you cannot know the value of the tag in the
current state, like %%title%% tag. So in fw_ext_seo_init_tags filter, you can add the tag without value, and
define the value after the current page location is defined, by using the fw_ext_seo_update_tags filter.
Update tag value
/**
* @internal
*/
function _filter_update_my_seo_tag( $tags ) {
if ( isset($tags['mytag']) && is_front_page() ) {
$tags['mytag']['value'] = __('Home', '{domain}');
}
return $tags;
}
add_filter( 'fw_ext_seo_update_tags', '_filter_update_my_seo_tag' );

Actions
fw_ext_seo_init_location - is, initialized with WordPress wp action and defines the current page location, used to update SEO tags. Sends as first parameter $location an array with details about current page
location.
Helpers
fw_ext_seo_parse_meta_tags($text) - parses a string and replaces all SEO tags with their values.
Note: Use this function after the fw_ext_seo_init_location action.

Changing the grid


By default the Builder uses a bootstrap like grid, with the same class names but prefixed with .fw-{bootstrap-class-name}.
The grid css is enqueued in all frontend
pages from framework/extensions/builder/static.php.
Also this extension defines the grid columns for all builders (for e.g.
page-builder and form-builder) in
framework/extensions/builder/config.php.

128

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

Changing the grid for all builders

1. Overwrite
framework/extensions/builder/config.php
by
{theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/builder/config.php

creating

<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');


$cfg = array();

$cfg['default_item_widths'] = array(
/**
* Copy/Paste here default columns https://github.com/ThemeFuse/Unyson-Builder-Extension
* and add, remove or change them
*/
);

2. Prevent
default

css
enqueue
and
enqueue
your
own
css.
{theme}/framework-customizations/extensions/builder/static.php

Create

<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');

if (!is_admin()) {
wp_register_style(
'fw-ext-builder-frontend-grid',
get_template_directory_uri() .'/framework-customizations/extensions/builder/static/f
array(),
fw()->theme->manifest->get_version()
);
}

Changing the grid for one builder

Other extensions use the fw_ext_builder_get_item_width($builder_type, $width_id) function


to get and output grid css class in frontend
<div class="<?php echo esc_attr(fw_ext_builder_get_item_width('page-builder', '1_2/frontend_class'))

The function loads the grid from config, but allows you to change it via this filter. You can use the filter to change the
grid columns for some builder type.

add_filter(
'fw_builder_item_widths:page-builder',
'_filter_theme_custom_page_builder_columns'
);
function _filter_theme_custom_page_builder_columns($columns) {
$columns['3_7'] = array(
'title' => '3/7',
'backend_class' => 'custom-backend-3-7-column', // you must enqueue in backend a css with thi
'frontend_class' => 'frontend-custom-3-7-column', // you must enqueue in frontend a css with
);
return $columns;

The Builder
The builder is just an option type. But you cant use it right away, because its too abstract and doesnt have any
concrete purpose. You can only extend it and create new builders based on it.
Data Structure

The javascript side of the builder is based on backbone, so it uses collections and models to store the data:
[
{
type: 'foo',
_items: [],
attr_x: 'Hello',
...
},
{
type: 'bar',
_items: [ {type: 'baz', ...}, ... ],
attr_y: 'Hi',
...
},
...
]

Every model (also called item) has a required attribute type. Also it has an attribute _items that is generated
automatically by the backbone-relational plugin, the purpose of which is to make possible to have nested items easier.
There are no rules for other attributes, every item has whatever attributes it wants.
The same data structure is used on the php side, this collection is simply transformed into an array with
json_decode($collection, true).
Creating a Builder

This tutorial will explain you how to create a simple demo builder for html <ul> and <ol> lists. First, create an
option type that extends the builder option type:
// file: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/class-fw-option-type-lists-builder.php
class FW_Option_Type_Lists_Builder extends FW_Option_Type_Builder
{
public function get_type() {
return 'lists-builder';
}
}
FW_Option_Type::register('FW_Option_Type_Lists_Builder');

Thats it, the new builder was created. Use it in your post options to see what it shows at this point.
Note: This example assumes that you use in your theme this directory structure.
1. Include the option type:

130

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

// file: theme/inc/includes/lists-builder.php

/** @internal */
function _action_include_demo_lists_builder() {
if (!fw_ext('builder')) {
/**
* Lists Builder requires the FW_Option_Type_Builder class
* which does not exist if the 'builder' extension is not active.
*
* You can install and activate the 'builder' extension by installing any extension
* for e.g. Page Builder or Learning (which has the Learning Quiz Builder sub-extens
*/
return;
}

require_once dirname(__FILE__) .'/option-types/lists-builder/class-fw-option-type-lists}


add_action('fw_option_types_init', '_action_include_demo_lists_builder');

2. Add it in post options:


// file: theme/framework-customizations/theme/options/posts/post.php
$options = array(
'lists-builder-box' => array(
'type' => 'box',
'title' => __('Lists Builder', '{domain}'),
'options' => array(
'lists-builder' => array(
'type' => 'lists-builder',
// this will make it full width
'label' => false,
),
),
),
);

3. Go to your.site/wp-admin/edit.php page, open any post edit page and look for the Lists Builder
box.
As you can see, the box is empty. At least youve successfully created the builder, now you can improve it.
Creating Items

To build lists youll need the following elements: <ul>, <ol> and <li>. In builder these elements can be created as
item types. The <ul> and <ol> (containers for <li>) will be created as one item type (with sub types), and <li>
as another item type. To create item types for a builder type you have to:
1. Find out what item types the builder accepts.
That information can be found in the FW_Option_Type_Builder::item_type_is_valid()
method. The builder you created above doesnt have a custom item_type_is_valid() method,
so it is inherited from the extended class, and that method looks like this:
/**
* Overwrite this method to force your builder type items to extend custom class or to have
* @param FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item $item_type_instance

3.7. Built-in Extensions

131

Unyson Framework, Release

* @return bool
*/
protected function item_type_is_valid($item_type_instance)
{
return is_subclass_of($item_type_instance, 'FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item');
}

2. Register item types.


Create and register item type that will represent the <ul> and <ol> elements:

// file: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/oul/class-fw-lists-builder
class FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_OUl extends FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item
{
/**
* Specify which builder type this item type belongs to
* @return string
*/
public function get_builder_type()
{
return 'lists-builder';
}
/**
* The item type
* @return string
*/
public function get_type()
{
return 'oul';
}

/**
* The boxes that appear on top of the builder and can be dragged down or clicked to cre
* @return array
*/
public function get_thumbnails()
{
return array(
array(
'html' =>
'<div class="item-type-icon-title" data-sub-type="ul">'.
'
<div class="item-type-icon">&lt;ul&gt;</div>'.
'
<div class="item-type-title">'. __('Unordered List', '{domain}') .'
'</div>',
),
array(
'html' =>
'<div class="item-type-icon-title" data-sub-type="ol">'.
'
<div class="item-type-icon">&lt;ol&gt;</div>'.
'
<div class="item-type-title">'. __('Ordered List', '{domain}') .'</
'</div>',
),
);
}
/**
* Enqueue item type scripts and styles

132

Chapter 3. License

Unyson Framework, Release

*/
public function enqueue_static()
{
}
}
FW_Option_Type_Builder::register_item_type('FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_OUl');

Create and register item type that will represent the <li> element:

// file: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/li/class-fw-lists-builderclass FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_Li extends FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item


{
public function get_builder_type()
{
return 'lists-builder';
}
public function get_type()
{
return 'li';
}
public function get_thumbnails()
{
return array(
array(
'html' =>
'<div class="item-type-icon-title">'.
'
<div class="item-type-icon">&lt;li&gt;</div>'.
'
<div class="item-type-title">List Item</div>'.
'</div>',
),
);
}
public function enqueue_static()
{
}
}
FW_Option_Type_Builder::register_item_type('FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_Li');

3. Include the created files.


At the end of the _action_include_demo_lists_builder() function (created above),
add:
// file: theme/inc/includes/lists-builder.php
function _action_include_demo_lists_builder() {
...

require_once dirname(__FILE__) .'/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/oul/class-fw-lis


require_once dirname(__FILE__) .'/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/li/class-fw-list
}

Refresh the page and you should see three boxes that can be dragged down. Unfortunately you will get an error in
console saying that the item type is not registered. This happens because you also have to register the item type in
javascript and define how it works and looks in builder.

javascript Registering
builder
items
can
be
done
via
the
builderInstance.registerItemClass(ItemTypeClass) method. Because builderInstance is
created somewhere in builder scripts and its not a global variable, the only way to get it, is to listen special event
fw-builder:{builder-type}:register-items.
1. Create the scripts file that registers the oul item type:
// file:: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/oul/static/scripts.js
fwEvents.one('fw-builder:'+ 'lists-builder' +':register-items', function(builder) {
var ItemClass = builder.classes.Item.extend({
defaults: {
type: 'oul' // the item type is specified here
}
});
builder.registerItemClass(ItemClass);
});

2. Enqueue the oul item type scripts file:


class FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_OUl extends FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item
{
...

public function enqueue_static()


{
wp_enqueue_script(
'lists-builder-item-type-oul',
get_template_directory_uri() .'/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-typ
array('fw-events')
);
}
}

3. Create the scripts file that registers the li item type:

fwEvents.one('fw-builder:'+ 'lists-builder' +':register-items', function(builder) {
var ItemClass = builder.classes.Item.extend({
defaults: {
type: 'li' // the item type is specified here
}
});
builder.registerItemClass(ItemClass);
});

4. Enqueue the li item type scripts file:


class FW_Lists_Builder_Item_Type_Li extends FW_Option_Type_Builder_Item
{

public function enqueue_static()


{
wp_enqueue_script(
'lists-builder-item-type-li',

}
}

Refresh the page and try to click or drag down the boxes. The items should appear in the builder, but they are using the
default view and doesnt have any concrete functionality. At this point, you have a working builder. If you add some
items and save the post, after page refresh the builder will recover from the saved json value. Customize the views and
add some functionality to items to be able to build lists with them:
1. Replace the oul item type scripts with:
// file: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/oul/static/scripts.js

fwEvents.one('fw-builder:'+ 'lists-builder' +':register-items', function(builder) {


var ItemView = builder.classes.ItemView.extend({
template: _.template(
'<div style="border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 0 10px;">'+
'<p>&lt;<span><%- type %></span>&gt; <a href="#" onclick="return false;" cla
/**
* Special element with 'builder-items' class
* displays the items that are in the '_items' attribute of the model
*/
'<div class="builder-items"><!-- list items --></div>'+
'</div>'
),
render: function() {
// It is recommended to do the template render using this method
this.defaultRender({
type: this.model.get('list_type')
});
}
});

var ItemClass = builder.classes.Item.extend({


defaults: {
type: 'oul', // the item type is specified here
list_type: 'ul'
},
initialize: function(atts, opts) {
if (opts && opts.$thumb) {
/**
* When the item box is dragged down or clicked, opts.$thumb contains the bo
* so you can extract the data-sub-type attribute set in html.
*
* Note: opts.$thumb doesn't exist when the item is created from code
* for e.g. recovered from json after page refresh
*/
this.set('list_type', opts.$thumb.find('[data-sub-type]').attr('data-sub-typ
}
this.view = new ItemView({
id: 'lists-builder-item-'+ this.cid,
model: this
});
// it is recommended to call this method
this.defaultInitialize();

},
/**
* This method controls which item types are allowed to be added inside this item in
* @param {String} type
* @returns {boolean}
*/
allowIncomingType: function(type) {
if (type == 'li') {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
});
builder.registerItemClass(ItemClass);
});

2. Replace the li item type scripts with:


// file: theme/inc/includes/option-types/lists-builder/item-types/li/static/scripts.js

fwEvents.one('fw-builder:'+ 'lists-builder' +':register-items', function(builder) {


var ItemView = builder.classes.ItemView.extend({
template: _.template(
'<div style="border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 0 10px;">'+
'<p>'+
'<span><%= text %></span> '+
'<a href="#" onclick="return false;" class="dashicons dashicons-edit"></a>'+
'<a href="#" onclick="return false;" class="dashicons fw-x"></a>'+
'</p>'+
'</div>'
),
events: {
'click a.dashicons.fw-x': 'defaultRemove',
'click .dashicons-edit': 'openTextEdit'
},
render: function() {
this.defaultRender({
text: this.model.get('text')
});
},
openTextEdit: function() {
var text = prompt('Edit <li> text', this.model.get('text'));
if (text === null) {
return;
}
this.model.set('text', text);
}
});
var ItemClass = builder.classes.Item.extend({
defaults: {
type: 'li', // the item type is specified here
text: 'Hello World!' // <li>{text}</li>
},
initialize: function(atts, opts) {

136

this.view = new ItemView({


id: 'lists-builder-item-'+ this.cid,
model: this
});
this.defaultInitialize();
},
/**
* This method controls to which item types this item is allowed to be added/moved
* @param {String} type
* @returns {boolean}
*/
allowDestinationType: function(type) {
if (type == 'oul') {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
});
builder.registerItemClass(ItemClass);
});

Now the javascript side of the builder has the minimum functionality to be able to build lists. After you build a list and
saved the post, the html of the list needs to be generated so you can display it on the page. To do that, continue to the
next step.
Generate Custom Value

By default the builder saves its value as an array with one key json which stores the original value used in javascript.
From the original value, you can generate any custom values and store them in custom keys. In the case with Lists
Builder, you have to generate the lists html from that original json value to be able to display the list in html. This can
achieved by overwriting the builder _get_value_from_input() method.
class FW_Option_Type_Lists_Builder extends FW_Option_Type_Builder
{
...
/**
* Generate the html of the list
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
protected function _get_value_from_input($option, $input_value)
{
$value = parent::_get_value_from_input($option, $input_value);
$html = '';
foreach (json_decode($value['json'], true) as $list) {
$html .= '<'. $list['list_type'] .'>';
foreach ($list['_items'] as $list_item) {
$html .= '<li>'. $list_item['text'] .'</li>';
}
$html .= '</'. $list['list_type'] .'>';
}

3.7. Built-in Extensions

137

Unyson Framework, Release

$value['html'] = $html;
return $value;
}
}

Now you can use the generated html in post template. Add to theme/single.php:
...
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
echo fw_get_db_post_option( null, 'lists-builder/html' );
...

Congratulations, now you can create new builders!


There are many things that can be improved in the Lists Builder, but this article will become too big. You can inspect
the builder code and other builders like Page Builder, Forms Builder and Learning Quiz Builder to find the answers
for the questions that may appear while developing your own builder.

Understanding the purpose of this extension


At first, this extension is not a silver bullet for all of the use cases you may want to try, it is quite limited in what it can
achieve. If you want to get more details you should really go and read the whole discussion on GitHub.
Warning: This document is a work in process.

The structure of a Unyson shortcode


At first, you should know that an Unyson shortcode consists of three parts that make him look the way it does:
1. HTML. Usually it is located in view.php
2. All of the static. Located in static.php
3. Dynamic CSS. Enqueueud with wp_add_inline_style on fw_ext_shortcodes_enqueue_static:{name}
Depending on your use case, it may be easier or harder to get those components rendered correctly. Ill give a short
table below that will make all of this clear.
1. Shortcode in Post Editor
2. Shortocde in wp-editor option type of any Page Builder Shortcode

Shortcodes in main post editor

By default, youll a get a button in the main post editor with all of the shortcodes that are enabled, except the section
and column ones. This is actually the most simple use-case and you have nothing to do in order to get them working.
Everything should be out of the box here.
You can in fact, customize which shortcodes are showed up using this snippet of code:
<?php if (!defined('FW')) die('Forbidden');
add_filter('fw:ext:wp-shortcodes:default-shortcodes', _set_default_shortcodes);
function _set_default_shortcodes($previous_shortcodes) {
return array( 'button', 'notification' );
