Modify Credits URL for Dynamic Display

[bamajr]

Full disclosure...

I'm modifying a script found at: http://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/footer/customize-the-credits-text/

//* Change the footer text
add_filter('genesis_footer_creds_text', 'sp_footer_creds_filter');
function sp_footer_creds_filter( $creds ) {
	$creds = 'Copyright [footer_copyright] &middot; <a href="SITE-URL">SITE-NAME</a> &middot; All Rights Reserved &middot; [footer_loginout]';
	return $creds;
}

This script works great in a stand-alone WordPress installation, but what if the theme is being used on multiple sites, within a multi-site network? I'd like to be able to call the SITE-URL in the "href=" area and call the SITE-NAME in the "My Custom Link" area, so the SITE-URL and SITE-NAME change automatically, when a new site is added to the multi-site network.

The Genesis filter reference doesn't seem to mention anything about an ability to add SITE-URL or SITE-NAME to the genesis_footer_creds_text. Any thoughts?

You can modify the code and change the site name and URL.

Create shortcodes to retrieve the site name and url, then use them in your snippet. SITE-URL and SITE-NAME are not PHP contants unless you define them as such in your theme. If they were defined, they wouldn't be SITE-URL and SITE-NAME anyway. They would be SITE_URL and SITE_NAME. The way multisite works, you would either have include the shortcodes in every theme on the site or use a multisite compatible snippet plugin like WP Clips that would auto-load the shortcodes on every site. You can try this to see if it gets started. The shortcodes woul be [display_site_url] and [display_site_name]

add_shortcode( 'display_site_url', 'ms_display_site_url' );
function ms_display_site_url() {
    echo  site_url();
}

add_shortcode( 'display_site_name', 'ms_display_site_name' );
function ms_display_site_name() {
    bloginfo( 'name' );
}

Thank you for chiming in @braddalton - always a pleasure.

Yes, I do know how to modify the script to display a specific Site-Name, on all sites within the multi-site network. However, I'm not able to make it dynamically change, with each new website on the multi-site network.

Thank you @VictorFont. I think that will work!

@VictorFont This didn't work as expected, but I am much closer.

I have modified the script as follows:

add_shortcode( 'display_site_url', 'ms_display_site_url' );
function ms_display_site_url() {
    echo  site_url();
}

add_shortcode( 'display_site_name', 'ms_display_site_name' );
function ms_display_site_name() {
    bloginfo( 'name' );
}

//* Change the footer text
add_filter('genesis_footer_creds_text', 'sp_footer_creds_filter');
function sp_footer_creds_filter( $creds ) {
	$creds = 'Copyright [footer_copyright] &middot; <a href="[display_site_url]">[display_site_name]</a> &middot; All Rights Reserved &middot; [footer_loginout]';
	return $creds;
}

...and it returns this:

I figure I'm not escaping something correctly but trying to modify this has resulted in WordPress' beloved WSoD 😉
