    <p>First, a proviso - I'm a designer not a dev, so please be gentle ;)</p> <p>I'm trying to tweak a Wordpress plugin by extending a class. In the class in a bit of conditional if/elseif-ing the code calls one of two functions. Instead of these functions I've want to call two new ones (effectively the same functions as the old ones but again, slightly tweaked).</p> <p>I've done this successfully before by doing this:</p> <pre><code>class MY_CLASS extends MY_NEW_CLASS { ... </code></pre> <p>Then I change the code in the class and away we go. However, in this case it doesn't appear to be working?</p> <p>Below I've pasted the class code that I've put into my functions.php file:</p> <pre><code>class QA_AJAX_new extends QA_AJAX { function init() { add_action( 'wp_ajax_qa_vote', array( __CLASS__, 'vote' ) ); add_action( 'wp_ajax_qa_accept', array( __CLASS__, 'accept' ) ); } function vote() { global $_qa_votes; $_qa_votes-&gt;handle_voting(); $id = $_POST['post_id']; $post_type = get_post_type( $id ); if ( 'question' == $post_type ) the_question_voting_new( $id ); elseif ( 'answer' == $post_type ) the_answer_voting_new( $id ); else die( -1 ); die; } function accept() { global $_qa_votes; $_qa_votes-&gt;handle_accepting(); $id = $_POST['answer_id']; the_answer_accepted( $id ); die; } } QA_AJAX_new::init(); </code></pre> <p>About half way down you can see the two new functions I want the class to use, <code>the_question_voting_new</code> and <code>the_answer_voting_new</code>. I've also changed the code at the end that now says <code>QA_AJAX_new::init();</code> - I'm not sure if I'm supposed to do that, but I've tried it both ways and neither makes a difference.</p> <p>I'm clearly doing something wrong (or trying to do something that's not possible), something a dev would spot instantly, but my poor designer brain doesn't know enough about php to figure it out.</p> <p>Thanks.</p>

    1. COdefine "Not working". Do you get errors, it does something you don't expect or does nothing at all?

    2. CONo, no errors. What appears to be happening is that the 'new' class, QA_AJAX_new, doesn't appear to be extending (overriding?) the old class QA_AJAX because the old functions 'the_question_voting' and 'the_answer_voting' are still being used - these functions output some html, which I've changed in my new versions of them, but it's still showing the old html. Hope that makes sense?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
