توضیحات
This is a feature plugin intended to implement #34923: Introduce basic content authorship in the Customizer.
The goal for this plugin is to be able to expose the editing of posts and pages in the Customizer, allowing you to edit post data and postmeta for any number of posts, and preview the changes before saving them for others to see. This plugin was birthed out of the Widget Customizer feature-as-plugin project which was merged into WordPress Core: as widgets (in 3.9) and nav menus (4.3) can now be managed in the Customizer, so too should posts and pages be editable in the Customizer as well.
Did you know that changing the featured image actually makes the change live even before you save the post? This is very surprising/unexpected behavior. The only way to truly preview a change to a featured image is to use something like Customize Posts.
Likewise, did you know that changing a page template cannot be previewed from the post editor? When you change the selected page template, the change will not show up when you preview the page (see #11049). However, in Customize Posts you can preview changes to the page template just by changing the dropdown selection, and then you can see what your page would look like with the new template after the preview refreshes.
Most other changes to metaboxes containing data that gets saved to custom fields (postmeta) also get written when clicking the Preview button. The Customize Posts plugin provides a framework to edit postmeta in the Customizer with a live preview of the changes. (Fixing this underlying issue of incorrectly persisting postmeta when doing a preview is captured in #20299.)
As much as possible, the previewing of changes in Customize Posts utilizes the selective refresh capabilities introduced in WordPress 4.5. Not only does this mean it is faster to preview changes to posts and postmeta, but it also allows you to shift-click on an element to focus on the corresponding control in the Customizer pane. For example you can shift-click on the post title in the preview to focus on the post title control’s input field, or shift-click on a featured image to focus on the control’s button to open the media library.
Development of this plugin is done on GitHub. Pull requests welcome. Please see issues reported there before going to the plugin forum.
(This Customize Posts plugin is not to be confused with 10up’s Post Customizer.)
Demo Videos
The following are listed in reverse chronological order. The first, more recent videos, show more polish.
[2016-04-28] New features in 0.5.0.
[2016-03-28] Previewing post from Post Edit screen.
[2016-03-05] Opening a draft post in the Customizer to preview title wrapping.
[2016-03-04] Demo featuring the WP visual rich text editor (TinyMCE), including the insertion of images from the media library. Post content can be edited in the Customizer and previewed in multiple contexts. For example, this allows you to preview how a Read More tag will appear when the post appears on a post list page, and you can navigate to the single post to continue previewing subsequent paragraphs. You can expand the editor into a full-screen mode to focus on writing and then quickly preview the changes on the site by toggling the editor. You can make changes to as many posts as you want, but none of the changes will go live until you hit Save & Publish: everything is previewed so there is no “save and surprise”.
[2016-03-03] Demonstration of integration with Customize Setting Validation (#34893) to gracefully handle failures to save due to post locking and concurrent user editing:
[2016-03-01] Demonstration of hooking into edit post links so that they actually work in the Customizer and expand the section to edit the given post (as opposed to the link doing nothing at all when clicked), as well as shift-clicking on the title and content (needs better discovery UI, see #27403):

[0.8.1] – 2016-09-23
Fixed compatibility with Safari in the wp.customize.Posts.getCurrentTime()
method. See #293. Props Piotr Delawski (@delawski).
[0.8.0] – 2016-09-22
Added:
- Add ability to edit and create pages from
dropdown-pages
controls, such as the controls for page on front and page for posts. AddsstartEditPageFlow
andstartAddPageFlow
methods from the Customize Object Selector plugin. See #271 and PRs #272, #284, #285. - Allow page/post stubs created via nav menus in 4.7-alpha to also be edited like any other page. See #253 and PR #287.
- For nav menu items linking to a post/page, add a edit button that appears in the nav menu item control next to the original link. Clicking edit will expand the section for that post/page, and collapsing the section will return focus to the button in the nav menu item control. See #147 and PR #288.
- Sync post/page changes to available nav menu items and nav menu item controls, ensuring titles are consistent in available item lists and in the nav menu item control’s title, label placeholder, and original link, and in the nav menu item setting’s
original_title
property. If a nav menu item lacks its owntitle
and inherits fromoriginal_title
, post/page changes will now trigger nav menu selective refresh updates. See #156 and PR #288, #289. - Sync pages additions, changes, and removals to all
dropdown-pages
controls, in particular to the page on front and page for posts controls in the static front page section. See #153. PRs #190, #270, #275, #276. - Add support post parent control via Customize Object Selector plugin’s control (in v0.3). See #65 and PRs #189, #233.
- Add rudimentary number-based menu order control. See #84 and PR #255, #257.
- Add previewing of title changes for pages listed by
wp_list_pages()
. PR #256. - Implement support for all of the
WP_Query
query vars, including post meta queries, ensuring results have posts’ customized state applied as expected. This is a big improvement to ensure customized posts and postmeta will appear the same before or after saving the customized state. Previously, previewingWP_Query
results was very limited and often not accurate. As part of this,get_posts()
and any queries made withsuppress_filters
on will be overridden to force filters to apply. See #246 and PR #248. - Add support to
WP_Customize_Postmeta_Setting
for representing non-single postmeta. Such settings are instantiated with a truesingle
arg and they require an array value. Thecustomize_sanitize_{$setting_id}
filter will apply to each array item separately, as will thesanitize_meta()
call. PR #248. - Ensure that static front page constructs get registered even without any pages yet created. Add active callback to the static front page section so that it will appear as soon as a published page exists (either via adding a new page from the Pages panel or via a nav menu item page stub in WP 4.7-alpha). See #252 and PR #254.
- Refactor editor control to be reusable for not just post content but also custom fields (postmeta). See PRs #216, #269.
- Ensure that the results of
get_pages()
has the customized state applied. This enables support forwp_dropdown_pages()
(and thus the post parent control). See #241 and PR #250. - Prevent the same page from being selected as both the page for posts and the page on front. PR #270.
- Improve support for page for posts by hiding page template and content since not displayed. Show notice that the page for posts is being edited. See #228, #277 and PR #278.
- Allow
posts
component to be filtered out to be disabled like other components (widgets
andnav_menus
). See #132 with PRs #219 and #258. - Disable edit-post-links module in customize-direct-manipulation plugin so that edit links in the preview will continue to work in Customize Posts. PR #234.
- Let Customize link in admin bar deep link on the post section when on a singular template. See #105 and PR #236.
- Use non-minified scripts and styles if plugin installed via git (submodule), eliminating the need to add
SCRIPT_DEBUG
or do a build. PR #249. - Add all to
wp_transition_post_status()``when transitioning from
auto-draftto
customize-draft`. PR #266. - Include nav menu items and their postmeta in requests to fetch settings. This is to facilitate custom fields in nav menus items. PRs #263, #268, #274.
- Support constructing
Setting
objects in JS using a specificsettingConstructor
if defined for a given settingtype
when fetching settings. PR #286.
Changed:
- For registered post type attributes, use
public
instead ofshow_ui
as defaultshow_in_customizer
flag. See #264 and PR #265.
Fixed:
- Restrict page template control to just the page post type (as opposed to other post types that support
page-attributes
). PR #227. - Ensure that preview urls are used as permalinks for customized posts. PR #245.
- Ensure the page for posts can be previewed as the page for posts (and not a normal page). See #260 and PR #292.
- Fix ability to do translation via translate.wordpress.org. PR #215.
- Ensure wp_insert_post_empty_content filter gets removed after trashing. PR #214.
- Fix theme compat for twentysixteen content rendering by including additional template tags. PR #226.
- Fix display of notifications in date control. See #229 and PR #230.
- Use
notification.setting
instead ofnotification.data.setting
. PR #238. - Add syncing of slug (
post_name
) between edit post screen and customize post preview. PR #239. - Eliminate post type names in generic strings to ensure ability to translate. See #237 and PR #242.
- Use flexbox for post selection lookup select2 and add button. PR #244.
- Remove underline from time-info-handle in 4.7-alpha. PR #242.
- Make sure
post_author
is string in PHP but keep int in JS. PR #251. - Ensure that a post section is expanded when a post editor control is expanded. Issue #259 and PR #280.
- Prevent ESC key from causing the editor to collapse unexpectedly. See #281 and PR #282.
- Ensure that all TinyMCE UIs are hidden when the editor control is collapsed. See #231 and PR #282.
Removed:
- Removed the
customize_previewed_posts_for_query
filter since now unnecessary and irrelevant after refactor in #248.

[0.7.0] – 2016-08-06
Added:
- Introduce Select2 dropdown in a post type’s panel for searching for any post to load, even if it is not shown in the preview. Selecting a post adds its section to the Customizer and expands it while also navigating to the post’s URL in the preview. Trashed posts are also listed, and selecting a trashed post will load its post data into the Customizer in its untrashed state (restoring its original status and slug) so that upon save it will be be untrashed. (#196, #199)
- Add control for post date, including synchronization with publish/future status for when date is in future. Control includes timezone information and countdown for when schedule publish will happen. Also includes reset link to leave the date empty so that it will default to the current date/time when it is published. (#56, #202)
- Improve UX for trashing posts, adding a Move to Trash link. (#172, #211)
- Add initial support for meta queries when the Customizer state includes changes to postmeta. (#174, #191, #197, #193)
- Allow post field control labels to be defined in
register_post_type()
so that the names can be repurposed to be appropriate to the custom post type. (#195) - Add low-fidelity live JS-applied previews to post title changes while waiting for high-fidelity PHP-applied selective refresh requests to response. (#43)
Fixed:
- Ensure title is focused and selected when creating a new post. (#209, #208, #206)
- Make sure that posts are loaded for any post sections/controls that are autofocused. (#204, #205)
- Speed up performance by registering post/postmeta settings and partials only as they are needed (just in time), introducing a new
ensurePosts
API call to fetch the settings over Ajax and create the relevant section. (#201) - Improve test coverage. (#200)
- Fix editor text not persistent issue across all posts and post types. (#129, #198)
- Sort posts in a section reverse-chronologically by date (if non-hierarchical) or else by
menu_order
if hierarchical. (#124) - Ensure changes to post status are reflected in return value when calling
get_post_status()
. (#194)

0.6.0 – 2016-06-02
Added:
- Add the ability to create new posts and pages in the Customizer. Created posts get
auto-draft
status in the DB so they will be garbage-collected if the Customizer is never saved. A new view link appears in the post section allowing a newly-created post to be navigated to easily without having to find the created post linked to in the preview. (Issues #48, #50, PR #134) - Add post status control and preview, with
trash
status support (Issues #40, #137, PR #152) - Add support for setting validation in WordPress 4.6-alpha, showing notifications if attempting to save when a post is locked or a conflicting update was previously made. (Issue #142, PR #150)
- Add the ability to vertically resize the post editor (Issue #136, PR #149)
- Add post slug control, wherein changes do not cause the preview to refresh by default since there is nothing to see (Issue #63, PR #148)
- Posts data as saved will now be synced back into the Customizer interface, ensuring that if a post slug gets the infamous
-2
added, you’ll see that in the Control. Likewise, if awp_insert_post_data
filter orcontent_save_pre
changes your data in some way, these will be shown in the post’s Customizer controls upon saving. - Add extendable theme & plugin compatibility classes that can configure partial rendering. All Core themes & Jetpack are currently supported. (Issues #82, #103, PR #123)
- Use
plugins_url()
for each asset URL so that the plugin can be installed as a submodule withoutSCRIPT_DEBUG
(Issue #133)
Fixed:
- Add all postmeta settings for registered types not just the ones actually referenced (Issues #141, #145)
- Export all registered post types to client, but only register panels if
show_in_customizer
(PR #130) - Ensure that control pane expand button is visible when editor is open and the Customizer pane is collapsed (Issue #44, PR #126)
- Improve compatibility with the Customize Snapshots plugin.
- Improve compatibility with the WP REST API plugin.
- Supply a default
(no title)
placeholder to the post title control for new posts. - Filter post and page links in the Customizer to return the preview URL.

- Support for postmeta, including a framework for registering postmeta types. (Issues #1, PR #89)
- Page template control and preview, with sync from Customizer post preview back to post edit screen. (Issue #85, PR #89)
- Featured image control, with sync from Customizer post preview back to post edit screen. Changes to the featured image can now be previewed, where normally this is not possible in WordPress. Improved featured image selection on edit post screen to not update featured image in place, instead waiting until the post is Saved until updating the featured image postmeta. The featured image can be set from the post edit screen and then previewed in the Customizer via the post Preview Changes button: the featured image can be further changed in the Customizer post preview, with changes synced back to the post edit screen when the Customizer post preview is exited. (Issue #57, PR #102)
- Author control and preview, with sync from Customizer post preview back to post edit screen (Issue #62, PRs #89 #92)
- Excerpt control and preview, with sync from Customizer post preview back to post edit screen (Issue #60, PR #91)
- Comment status control and preview, with sync from Customizer post preview back to post edit screen (Issues #61, PR #100)

- Improve PHPUnit test coverage to 98%.
- Note: Selective refresh support was specifically tested with Twenty Fifteen and Twenty Sixteen. See #103 for a way for themes to configure how they represent the various post fields in template parts.
Fixed:
- Improve editor styles in mobile and in fullscreen mode. (Issue #45, PR #107)
- Modals, toolbars, and tooltips and are no longer hidden (Issue #80, PRs #81, #101).
- Improve compatibility with Customize Widgets Plus (PR #83). See also https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-widgets-plus/pull/46 for a fix in the Customizer post preview.
