Common WordPress APIs: Metadata

One of the things that makes WordPress so extendable is its support for metadata on its core data object types (posts, comments, users, terms). The Metadata API and associated functions create a standardized way for retrieving and manipulating metadata for these object types. In this session, we will look at how metadata is stored, and which functions can be used to store and retrieve metadata.

If you want to work with me during this session, you will need the following:

1. Access to a local WordPress install

2. A text editor to edit WordPress files.

I will be using Visual Studio Code as my code editor for the workshop.

Audience: Developers

Level: All levels welcome

Where: Zoom (link will be visible after RSVP)

This session is being held at an EU/Africa/US Eastern-friendly time. If you cannot get to the live session, keep an eye out for the recording we’ll be publishing on WordPress.tv and learn.wordpress.org after the session is completed :-)

See you soon!
