Plugin / Better Admin Pointers

Stephen Suess

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: This can be easily deduced from looking at the URL in the admin. For regular posts, it would just be “post”. For a custom post type, it would be the name of that custom post type (my-custom-post-type). For other pages (like my plugin editor example), it usually works to just remove the “.php” from the end of the url (i.e. “plugin-editor.php” becomes “plugin-editor”).
A: You are in luck: https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Admin_Screen_Reference
A: You are in even greater luck. I just added an option to show you what screen you are on anywhere in the admin. Go to BAP Options page and check the box for “Show Current Screen”. A small header on every page will identify your admin screen.
A: Using built in tools in Chrome or Safari or Firefox or Other, right click on the element you want to target, select “Inspect Element” from the contextual menu, then look for the class or id of that item. Note, if it is a class, prepend with a period (.classname) and if it is an ID prepend with a hash (#idname).
A: You will find that each type of page has its own base css, so for example if I am wanting to target the Add Media button on just the new post, I would use “.post-new-php #insert-media-button” as my target.
A: There is now (as of version 1.2). Use the newly added Nudge Vertical and Nudge Horizontal fields. You can leave these fields blank for default, or use positive or negative numbers only. Don’t put any other text in those boxes or bad things may happen.
