Description

There are several different types of basic Core Controls built into the Customizer that are ready to use straight-out-of-the-box. These include text, checkbox, textarea, radio, select and dropdown-pages controls. Later versions of WordPress also introduced Color, Media, Image and Cropped Image controls. If none of the basic core controls suit your needs, you can create and add your own custom controls.

This example code shows how to incorporate Customizer functionality into your theme (or plugin), including examples of how to create Panels, Sections and how to update the Live Preview window. As well as showing the usage of the (built-in) core controls, there are also a number of Custom Controls that have been built that you're welcome to make use of.

The example code in customizer.php will create a new Panel in the Customizer called Header & Navigation which contains three sections (Social Icons, Contact & Search). It also creates two new Sections. One called Sample Custom Controls, which contains examples of all the custom controls I created. The other new Section, Default Controls, contains examples of all the core controls that come with WordPress.

Toggle Switch

The Toggle Switch Custom Control is basically just a fancy type of checkbox. It allows for two states, either off or on.

Toggle Switch

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed. Default: Blank
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear

Example

$wp_customize->add_setting( 'sample_toggle_switch',
	array(
		'default' => 0,
		'transport' => 'refresh',
		'sanitize_callback' => 'skyrocket_switch_sanitization'
	)
);
$wp_customize->add_control( new Skyrocket_Toggle_Switch_Custom_control( $wp_customize, 'sample_toggle_switch',
	array(
		'label' => esc_html__( 'Toggle switch' ),
		'section' => 'sample_custom_controls_section'
	)
) );

Slider

The Slider Custom Control allows you to drag a handle across a horizontal bar to increase or decrease a numeric value. The control also has a reset button, allowing you to reset the value back to the default value. The accompanying input field shows you the value of the slider whilst also giving you the ability to manually enter a value as well.

You can specify the minimum and maximum values for the slider as well as the step size, which is the size of each interval between the minimum and maximum values.

Slider

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear
input_attrs - Required. List of custom input attributes for control output.
min - Required. Minimum value for the slider
max - Required. Maximum value for the slider
step - Required. The size of each interval or step the slider takes between the min and max values

Example

$wp_customize->add_setting( 'sample_slider_control',
	array(
		'default' => 48,
		'transport' => 'postMessage',
		'sanitize_callback' => 'skyrocket_sanitize_integer'
	)
);
$wp_customize->add_control( new Skyrocket_Slider_Custom_Control( $wp_customize, 'sample_slider_control',
	array(
		'label' => esc_html__( 'Slider Control (px)' ),
		'section' => 'sample_custom_controls_section',
		'input_attrs' => array(
			'min' => 10, // Required. Minimum value for the slider
			'max' => 90, // Required. Maximum value for the slider
			'step' => 1, // Required. The size of each interval or step the slider takes between the minimum and maximum values
		),
	)
) );

Sortable Repeater

The Sortable Repeater Custom Control allows you to collect values from one or more input fields. On top of that, the fields can be reordered by simply dragging 'n dropping each field. The control provides an icon handle for easy drag 'n drop reordering, a button for deleting a row and a button for adding a new row.

This particular Control has been designed for collecting one or more URL's and will validate the fields as such. It will also automatically add 'https://' to any url if it is missing. If you want to collect other type of data, such as plain text, simply duplicate this control and modify as necessary.

The setting for this control will be saved as a comma delimited string of URL's. To use this setting in your theme, I recommend using the PHP explode() function to convert the comma delimited string to an array of strings.

Sortable Repeater

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
description - Optional. The description to display under the label. Default: Blank.

		'section' => 'sample_custom_controls_section',
		'button_labels' => array(
			'add' => __( 'Add Row' ), // Optional. Button label for Add button. Default: Add
		)
	)
) );

Image Radio Button

The Image Radio Button works the same as an ordinary radio button control, in that you can only choose one item out of a number of items. The difference is that it allows you to display images for each selection choice. This is useful where an image provides a better indicator for the user, than simple text. A common use of this type of control is where a user might select the layout of their site.

When adding your control, you can specify the url for the image to display, the title text to display when hovering the cursor over the image and the value for each item.

Like an ordinary radio button, the setting that gets saved to the database is the value that you specify for each radio button choice

Image Radio Button

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
description - Optional. The description to display under the label. Default: Blank.
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear
choices - Required. List of custom choices.
key - Required. Data that will be stored for the setting image - Required. URL for the image to display
name - Required. Title text to display

Example

$wp_customize->add_setting( 'sample_image_radio_button',
	array(
		'default' => 'sidebarright',
		'transport' => 'refresh',
		'sanitize_callback' => 'skyrocket_text_sanitization'
	)
);
$wp_customize->add_control( new Skyrocket_Image_Radio_Button_Custom_Control( $wp_customize, 'sample_image_radio_button',
	array(
		'label' => __( 'Image Radio Button Control' ),
		'description' => esc_html__( 'Sample custom control description' ),
		'section' => 'sample_custom_controls_section',
		'choices' => array(
			'sidebarleft' => array(  // Required. Value for this particular radio button choice
				'image' => trailingslashit( get_template_directory_uri() ) . 'images/sidebar-left.png', // Required. URL for the image
				'name' => __( 'Left Sidebar' ) // Required. Title text to display

				'image' => trailingslashit( get_template_directory_uri() ) . 'images/sidebar-right.png',
				'name' => __( 'Right Sidebar' )
			)
		)
	)
) );

Text Radio Button

The Text Radio Button is another type of radio button, and again, works the same as an ordinary radio button control. The Text Radio Button simply displays the choices in a compact row of text.

When adding your control, you specify the text to display for each choice and the setting for each item.

Like an ordinary radio button, the setting that gets saved to the database is the value that you specify for each radio button choice.

Text Radio Button

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
description - Optional. The description to display under the label. Default: Blank.
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear
choices - Required. List of custom choices.
key - Required. Data that will be stored for the setting
value - Required. Data that is displayed for the radio button choice

	)
);
$wp_customize->add_control( new Skyrocket_Text_Radio_Button_Custom_Control( $wp_customize, 'sample_text_radio_button',
	array(

		)
	)
) );

Image Checkbox

The Image Checkbox works the same as an ordinary checkbox control, in that you can select one or more items out of a number of items. The difference is that it allows you to display images for each selection choice. This is useful where an image provides a better indicator for the user, than simple text. A common use of this type of control is where a user might select the weight of a font (e.g. Bold, Italic etc.).

When adding your control, you can specify the url for the image to display, the title text to display when hovering the cursor over the image and the value for each item.

The setting that gets saved to the database is a comma-separated string of values for each of the items that are selected.

Image Checkbox

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None

Single Accordion

The Single Accordion Control allows you to display a large block of text such as instructional information, whilst keeping it hidden or minimised until clicked. When the control is clicked, the content will become visible and when clicked again, the content will hide.

There's no settings saved for this control, it's purely for showing/hiding a block of content.

You can pass it an array of key/values pairs or plain text content (incl. basic html tags a, br, em, strong, i).

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank

	)
) );

Dropdown Select2

Select2 is a jQuery based replacement for select boxes. Select2 gives you a customizable select box with support for searching, tagging, remote data sets, infinite scrolling, and many other highly used options.

The Dropdown Select2 Custom Control provides a simple way of implementing a Select2 Dropwdown in the Customizer. One of the main benefits of using this Select2 Dropdown over a regular Dropdown is that it provides a handy input field allowing you to type in and search for the item your looking for. This is really handy when your dropdown list is extremely long and scrolling through the list becomes cumbersome. An example of where you might want to use this over a regular Dropdown is when you have a list of Countries or Timezones. Basically, any Dropdown list that is more than a dozen entries would benefit from using this Select2 Custom Control over a regular Dropdown control.

One of the other benefits of this control is the ability to handle Multi-Select lists. That is, it provides you with the ability to easily select multiple entries in your list, rather than just a single entry, if you so desire. This can be achieved simply by including 'multiselect' => true in your input_attrs.

The Dropdown Select2 Custom Control handles a straight forward list of entries by passing your entries as an array using the 'choices' parameter. Alternatively, if you want your Dropdown list to show Option Groups (i.e. the ability to group your list into different sections), then you can also pass an array of arrays to 'choices'.

If you wish to select default values, pass a simple string when using the control to select a single entry. When using the control as a mutli-select, pass an array of strings to select multiple default values.

To santize your controls data, use my skyrocket_text_sanitization function or any other function that can sanitize a simple string and also a series of comma delimited strings. It's worth noting that the multiselect dropdown will either save a single string or a series of comma delimited strings, depending on the number of entries selected in the dropdown.

When only a single entry is selected, even when using the multiselect dropdown, then the setting will be saved to the database as a single string. If you are using the multiselect dropdown (i.e. 'multiselect' => true) and you've selected multiple entries, they will be saved to the database as a series of comma delimited strings.

Dropdown Select2

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
description - Required. The text to display
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear input_attrs - Optional. List of custom choices.
placeholder - Optional. The Placeholder value to display. Select2 requires a Placeholder value to be set when using the clearall option. Default = 'Please select...'
multiselect - Optional. Select a single entry from the dropdown or select multiple. Either true or false. Default = false
choices - Required. List of custom choices.
key - Required. Data that will be stored for the setting
value - Required. Text to display in the control

Dropdown Posts

The Dropdown Posts Custom Control allows you to display a dropdown list of your Posts. You can display all Posts or just a selection by using the input_attrs array when adding your control.

This control is extremely flexible. Not only can you display a list of your typical (blog) Posts, but it can actually show any type of Post, such as WooCommerce Products, or even Pages. You can pass an array of Post ID's to include, an array of Post IDs NOT to include, how many posts to retrieve, the Post Type (e.g. you could use product for WooCommerce products) and a long list of other options. To see the complete list of values you can pass using the input_attrs array, see WP_Query::parse_query() in the WordPress Codex.

The setting that gets saved to the database is a Post ID.

TinyMCE Editor

The TinyMCE editor works the same as the standard TinyMCE Editor that you use when creating a Page or Post. The only difference you'll notice is that it has a minimalist toolbar. This is mainly because you're not likely to need the same full-featured toolbar as you would when creating a Page or Post. It's also due, in part, to the limited screen space available in the Customizer sidebar. Like the standard Page/Post TinyMCE editor, you can add text & links, along with various styles such as bold, italics and a number of other styles.

When adding your control, you can also specify what toolbar icons you would like to display. You can have one toolbar row or two toolbar rows. If you don't specify any toolbars, the default is to display one toolbar with bold, italic, bullet list, number list, align left, align center, align right and link buttons.

The full list of available toolbar buttons is available on the official TinyMCE website. Their Examples & Demo pages also has a number of examples showing how each of the toolbar buttons would display. It's worth noting that some toolbar buttons require additional TinyMCE plugins, not all of which are available by default in the WordPress version of TinyMCE.

You can also choose to display or hide the Add Media button, enabling you to easily add images into your TinyMCE Control. The Add Media button will be hidden by default.

When sanitizing your setting, you can simply use the core wp_kses_post() function, which will sanitize the content for allowed HTML tags for post content.

The setting that gets saved to the database will be a string with the allowed HTML tags and attributes intact.

Please note: The TinyMCE Editor Custom Control will only work in WordPress 4.8 and above as the JavaScript functionality required for its use was only added in WP 4.8.

Google Font Select

One of the issues I've found with a lot of Google Font controls in numerous themes and plugins is that they don't allow for Italic and Bold weights. They'll change the regular text to the chosen font, but any text that you make bold or italic, reverts back to the original font. One of the reasons for this is because they don't specify the necessary italic and bold weights when retrieving the fonts from Google.

The Google Font Control will allow you to select a Google font and also specify the weight for the regular, italic and bold weights. The list of Google Font choices are stored in a json file generated by calling the Google Webfonts API. So as to avoid having to include your own Google Fonts API Key in your theme, you should generate this list of fonts before you add your theme options. You can get the complete list of Google Fonts, sorted by popularity by calling https://www.googleapis.com/webfonts/v1/webfonts?sort=popularity&key=YOUR-API-KEY. A complete list of fonts sorted alphabetically can be retrieved by https://www.googleapis.com/webfonts/v1/webfonts?key=YOUR-API-KEY (Don't forget to include your own Google Fonts API Key in the appropriate place).

When defining your control, you can specify the number of fonts to display and the order in which they should be displayed (either alphabetically or by popularity). If your default font, or the currently saved font, is not included in the list of fonts you're displaying, it will automatically be prepended to the start of the list as the default font. As an example, if you specify specify 'Open Sans' as your default font, but only elect to show only the first 10 fonts, sorted alphabetically, then 'Open Sans' will be automatically prepended to the list of fonts shown in the control.

The Font Family dropdown also implements a Select2 control, which adds an input field allowing you to type in and search for the desired font. This makes finding your font easier than having to scroll through the long list of Google Font names.

The setting is saved to the database as a json string. The easiest way to use this data in your theme is by using the json_decode() PHP function to convert the json string into an array. From there, it's easy enough to get the Font name, regular font weight, italic weight, bold weight, and the font category which is useful for specifying a fallback font.

	 'default' => '{"font":"Open Sans","regularweight":"regular","italicweight":"italic","boldweight":"700","category":"sans-serif"}',
	),
	'sanitize_callback' => 'skyrocket_google_font_sanitization'

Alpha Color

All props for this control go to Braad Martin. I've included it here (and also in my sample code) because it's so useful and I think it's a better option than the standard Color Control built into core. You can check out the original post Braad wrote about this control or check it out in his Github repo.

The Alpha Color Control is very similar to the Color Control built into core. The benefit of this control over the default control, is that it allows you to specify the opacity of the selected colour, which allows you to specify RGBa colours rather than just a solid hex colour.

The setting that gets saved to the database will be an RGBa color value (e.g. rgba(0,158,39,0.8) ) or a plain solid hex color (e.g. #009e27).

Alpha Color

Usage
add_control( $id, $args );

Parameters
$id - (string) (required) Customize Control object or ID of the Setting associated with this Control. Default: None
$args - (array) (optional) An associative array containing arguments for the setting. Default: empty array

Arguments for $args
label - Optional. The label that will be displayed Default: Blank
description - Required. The text to display
section - Required. The Section where there control should appear
show_opacity - Optional. Show or hide the opacity value on the opacity slider handle. Default: true
palette - Optional. Allows you to specify the colours used in the colour palette. Can be set to false to hide the palette. Default: WP color control palette

Example

$wp_customize->add_setting( 'sample_alpha_color',
	array(
		'default' => 'rgba(209,0,55,0.7)',
		'transport' => 'postMessage'
	)
);
$wp_customize->add_control( new Skyrocket_Customize_Alpha_Color_Control( $wp_customize, 'sample_alpha_color_picker',
	array(
		'label' => __( 'Alpha Color Picker Control' ),
		'description' => esc_html__( 'Sample custom control description' ),
		'section' => 'sample_custom_controls_section',
		'show_opacity' => true, // Optional. Show or hide the opacity value on the opacity slider handle. Default: true
		'palette' => array( // Optional. Select the colours for the colour palette . Default: WP color control palette
			'#000',
			'#fff',
			'#df312c',
			'#df9a23',
			'#eef000',
			'#7ed934',
			'#1571c1',
			'#8309e7'
		)
	)
) );

WPColorPicker Alpha Color

The WPColorPicker Alpha Color is another Custom Color Control that supports Alpha Channel selection (e.g. rgba(0,158,39,0.8) ). This controls uses a modifed version of the WordPress Color Picker script that supports Alpha Channel selection. Although the Customizer Custom Control was created by myself, all props for this modified WPColorPicker script go to Sergio.

The Alpha Color Control is very similar to the Color Control built into core. The benefit of this control over the default control, is that it allows you to specify the opacity of the selected colour, which allows you to specify RGBa colours rather than just a solid hex colour.

When defining your control, you can specify an array of 8 colour values to use for the palette colours, which are shown as small swatches the bottom of the control. You can specify colours using Hex values, RGB values, or RGBa values. I recommend not mixing Hex/RGB and RGBa colours as the WPColorPicker script has issues handling this. Either use all HEX/RGB values, or all RGBa values.

When defining your control, you can specify whether the Alpha Channel is reset (back to 1) or whether it remains the same value (default is to reset i.e. true). Setting 'resetalpha' => false will ensure the value in the alpha channel isn't reset back to 1 every time one of the palette colours is selected. Setting 'resetalpha' => true (or just not using this option) will ensure that the alpha channel value is reset back to 1 every time one of the palette colours is selected.

The WPColorPicker script has issues when mixing HEX colours and RGBa colours in the palette. If 'resetalpha' => false and you select an RGBa colour from the palette which has an alpha value less than 1, the correct colour will be selected. However, if you then select an Hex value from the palette, the alpha channel value will remain the same as the previous selection, causing an incorrect colour to be selected.

When specifying all Hex values in the Palette, it's best to set 'resetalpha' => true (or just don't specify this option as the default value is true). When using all RGBa values in the Palette, it's best to set 'resetalpha' => false.

The setting that gets saved to the database will be an RGBa color value (e.g. rgba(0,158,39,0.8) ) or a plain solid hex color (e.g. #009e27).

Sortable Pill Checkbox Custom Control

The Sortable Pill Checkbox works similar to an ordinary checkbox control, in that you can select one or more items out of a number of items. Instead of checkboxes, this control will display each item as a small 'pill'. When each pill/checkbox is selected, as well as changing color, the selected item will also display a tick to improve accessibility and to make it more obvious as to whether an item is selected or not. These pill checkboxes also have the option to be sortable using drag 'n drop. This is useful where you want to provide your users with a set of options, as well as providing them the ability to control the order of those options. Lastly, rather than small variabled sized pills, you can also opt to display them fullwidth. This will show each pill the same size, rather than each having a variable width. A common use of this type of control is where you might allow a user to select what meta content to display for their blog posts, along with allowing them to change the order that each item is displayed in.

When adding your control, you can specify whether you want the pills to be sortable by setting 'sortable' => true (default is non-sortable i.e. false). You can also spcify if you want the pills displayed full width by setting 'fullwidth' => true (default is variable width i.e. false).

The setting that gets saved to the database is a comma-separated string of values for each of the items that are selected.

Upsell Section

The Upsell Section is a Custom Section that allows you to provide a link to an external URL, such as a theme website. This section is useful if you're upselling premium themes or plugins.

The Upsell Section is similar to standard core Customizer section except that instead of being able to navigate into the section, it simply provides a link to an external URL. Since this is a Section rather than a Custom Control, you probably want to add this to the same function that defines your other Sections.

When defining your section, you can specify the URL, the text to use for the link as well as the background and text colours for the section. The ability to define the colours allows you to show this section in your own branding colours, as well as making this link more noticeable within the Customizer.

Since this is a Custom Section, rather than a Custom Control, there's no values saved to the database.

Alpha Color

priority - Optional. This controls the order in which this section appears in the Theme Customizer sidebar
url - The external url to link to
backgroundcolor - Optional. The background colour of the section. Default: #fff
textcolor - Optional. The text colour for the title. Default: #555d66

Example

$wp_customize->add_section( new Skyrocket_Upsell_Section( $wp_customize, 'upsell_section',
	array(
		'title' => __( 'Premium Addons Available', 'skyrocket' ),
		'url' => 'https://skyrocketthemes.com',
		'backgroundcolor' => '#344860',
		'textcolor' => '#fff',
		'priority' => 0,
	)
) );
