Remove Post Type Slug from URLs
I’ve been asked about how to do it probably a million times. The question is how to make the URLs of your custom post types (or WooCommerce products) to look like Pages.
For example how to have example.com/t-shirt/ instead of example.com/product/t-shirt/.
In this tutorial I am going to provide you a complete guide! As an example we are going to remove /product/ from WooCommerce product URLs. But before we begin I would like to warn you that you have to avoid it if possible, because it may slows down the overall performance of your website and you have to be extra-careful when assigning a specific slug for your posts.

It is not a very difficult meta box, but I am just going to show you the process how it works, everything else is up to you. We are going to do it without any plugins first.
Sanitize Early, Escape Late, Always Validate
If you’re working with WordPress for a while, I am sure you’ve heard about such words like “sanitizing” or “escaping” or at least have seen in the code sanitize_text_field(), esc_html() or similar functions.
This tutorial is intended to sort this whole data validation thing out once and forever.
Create Beautiful Datepicker Field in WordPress Admin

How to Handle Theme Updates from your Custom Server
My tutorial about configuring self-hosted plugin updates became quite popular so I decided to publish a similar tutorial related to WordPress themes.
The whole tutorial consists of two steps – in the first step we are going to configure our custom update server, in the second step – create a theme actually.
Meta Boxes Conditional Logic
In this tutorial I will explain you how to show or hide a field depending on a value of another field within a simple WordPress metabox.
