How to Display Captions for Featured Images with get_the_post_thumbnail_caption()

Looking for an easy way to display captions for featured images on your WordPress website? The get_the_post_thumbnail_caption() function can help you do just that!

By using this simple function, you can retrieve the caption for the featured image of the current post in the loop, and display it on your website.

To use get_the_post_thumbnail_caption(), simply call the function with the ID of the featured image as the argument, like this:

$thumbnail_id = get_post_thumbnail_id();
$thumbnail_caption = get_the_post_thumbnail_caption( $thumbnail_id );

In this example, we’re first getting the ID of the featured image using the get_post_thumbnail_id() function. Then, we’re using that ID to get the caption of the featured image using the get_the_post_thumbnail_caption() function, and storing it in the $thumbnail_caption variable.

Once you have the caption stored in a variable, you can easily display it on your website using HTML and CSS. For example, you could output the caption within a <div> element with a specific class like this:

if ( $thumbnail_caption ) {
    echo '<div class="featured-image-caption">' . esc_html( $thumbnail_caption ) . '</div>';
}

In this example, we’re first checking if the $thumbnail_caption variable is not empty using an if statement. If it’s not empty, we’re outputting the caption within a <div> element with the class “featured-image-caption”.

By using get_the_post_thumbnail_caption(), you can easily add captions to your WordPress featured images and provide additional context to your website visitors. So why not give it a try today?

Understanding the WC_Price Function in WooCommerce

If you’re an e-commerce store owner or a developer working with WooCommerce, you might have come across the WC_Price function. This function is used to format and display prices in a standardized manner in WooCommerce.

In WooCommerce, prices are stored as decimal values in the database, but they need to be displayed in a human-readable format. For example, instead of storing the price of a product as ‘10.00’, it will be stored as 1000 (representing 10.00 in cents). The WC_Price function takes care of converting this value into the desired format for display.

Here’s a code sample that shows how you can use the WC_Price function:

$price = 1000;
echo wc_price( $price );

This code will output the price as $10.00.

One of the benefits of using the WC_Price function is that it automatically takes into account the currency symbol, decimal separator, and number of decimal places that are set in your WooCommerce store. This means that the price will be displayed correctly, no matter which currency your store is using.

Another advantage of the WC_Price function is that it automatically adds any discounts or taxes to the price. For example, if a product has a discount of 10%, the WC_Price function will automatically apply this discount to the price before it’s displayed.

Here’s a code sample that shows how you can use the WC_Price function to display the price of a product with a discount:

$price = 1000;
$discount = 10;
echo wc_price( $price - ( $price * ( $discount / 100 ) ) );

This code will output the price as $9.00, taking into account the 10% discount.

The WC_Price function is a useful tool for formatting and displaying prices in a standardized manner in WooCommerce. Whether you’re an e-commerce store owner or a developer, using this function can help ensure that your prices are displayed correctly and consistently, regardless of the currency or any discounts or taxes that may be applied.
