WordPress Visual Cheat Sheet

WordPress Visual Cheat Sheet is the new document, of the Visual Cheat Sheet family, that contains a practical reference guide to WordPress 2.8. This cheat sheet (5 pages) contains the full reference guide to WP Template Tags with detailed descriptions and sample code. The simple visual style I used to design this sheet allows you to find at a glance everything you are looking for.

    Thank you very much ! I think it’s going to be very useful !

    There’s also an other document that I think is very useful when developing for wordpress, the Template Hierarchy diagram. You can ind it here : http://codex.wordpress.org/File:Template_Hierarchy.png

  • Jason Pelker

    I think there’s an error on page 5 (specifically, the get_posts description). It reads the same as the wp_list_bookmarks description.

    Awesome resource, I have a few cheatsheets which I use when teaching my introduction to wordpress development course and this one will definitely be added to that list.

    Thanks for your great work. Another reason to love WordPress, awesome community of contributors.

    Hi, very usefull resource !

    But it seems that there are some typos :
    page 2 : text for wp_link_pages() is the same as the text for the_excerpt_rss()
    page 4 : the exemple given for wp_list_categories() is the one given for wp_dropdown_categories()
    page 4 : the text for wp_tag_cloud() is the same as the text for single_post_title()
    page 4 : the text for wp_generate_tag_cloud() is the same as the text for single_post_title() and the exemple is the one for wp_tag_cloud()
    page 4 : the text for wp_single_month_title() is the same as the text for wp_dropdown_users()
    page 5 : the text for get_posts() is the same as the text for wp_list_bookmarks()
    page 5 : the text for single_month_title() is the same as the text for the_modified_date()

    Would you mail me when these bugs are corrected so i can print your cheat sheet again ?

    Thanx a lot.

    Séb.

    Brilliant work, Antonio! Thanks for putting this together.

    Will you be updating it soon when WordPress 2.9 comes out? Or making a separate one for WP 2.9?

  • Tim LeBlanc

    Antonio,
    I’m just getting into dev work with WP and this will be a great help. Thank you very much for taking the time to create it. Since I plan on printing and probably laminating these sheets, I would like to suggest that you add a version number somewhere so it will be clear when I need to reprint. Thanks!

    • Antonio Lupetti

      Thanks for your suggestion Tim :)

  • Kel

    Looks great! I realize you state this is for WP2.8 in your post, but perhaps the PDF sheet should also reflect the WP version number? Unless I’ve missed it somewhere. Thank you!

  • Barış

  • James

  • James Holmes

    Can I ask you which plugin are you using for the “share” above which shows Delicious counts and very well goes along with the theme?
    I would really appreciate your response.
    Thanks

    Antonio,

    My hats off to you for you great effort in creating this cheat sheet and then, giving it away FOR FREE! I’m just a few months old in the blogging activity and am slowly learning the technical stuff to WordPress. Just a few days ago, I graduate from WordPress.com to WordPress.org, a more challenging means to present one’s literary pieces. Of course, I have yet to transcend the photography world, too.

    Again, my sincere thanks for this.

  • Jenny

    This is fantastic, thanks for sharing!

  • Lisa Kerr

    Thank you so much Antonio! Exactly what I needed! I’m a student, and new to everything, so this is very, very helpful to me! You’ve got my attention, so I will be reading all of your work!

    Extremely nice read, several valid points were made.

  • Alex Hamilton

    This is very nice.
    It’s rather unfortunate that there is no link to a pdf and that scribd has mandatory registration to download or print from it’s site.

  • Wisnu Hadibrata

    Perfect job !
