How do I add a button without plugin in WordPress?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:14 am

Adding a button without using a plugin can be done in a few different ways. One way is to use the WordPress customizer. To do this, go to the Customizer and click on the Buttons tab. Here, you can add a new button by clicking on the Add new button button.

In the text box that pops up, you will need to provide the button title, the button text, and the button image. The last two options can be found under the Images section. Once you have completed these fields, click on the Save button to save your changes.

The second way to add a button without using a plugin is to use the HTML editor. To do this, open the index.php file in your WordPress site and add the following code:

.

After the code has been added, you will need to include the custom-buttons plugin. To do this, go to the Plugins tab and search for custom-buttons. After the plugin has been found, click on the Install button to install it. Once the plugin has been installed, you will need to activate it. To do this, go to the Plugins tab and click on the Activate button.

After the plugin has been activated, you will need to add the custom-buttons widget. To do this, go to the Widgets tab and click on the Add new widget button. In the widget details page, you will need to provide the name custom-buttons, the description custom-buttons, and the type button. After these fields have been filled in, click on the Save button to save your changes.

PRO TIP: If you are adding a button without a plugin in WordPress, please be aware that you may need to add custom code to your theme or child theme. Adding custom code can be tricky and is not recommended for beginners. If you are not comfortable with adding code to your site, we recommend finding a plugin that meets your needs.

Now that the custom-buttons widget has been added, you will need to add the code to display the button. To do this, open the custom-buttons.js file and add the following code:

$(‘.custom-buttons’).click(function() { $(this).

parent().parent().addClass(‘active’); });.

Finally, you will need to add the code to display the button.php file in your WordPress site and add the following code:

‘ . esc_html( ‘Add a new post’ ) . ‘‘; ?>.

Now that the code has been added, you will need to test the button. To do this, go to the Posts page and add a new post.

After the post has been added, you will need to click on the Add a new button. The button will be displayed on the screen, and you will be able to click on it to add a new post.
