1. Write wrappers 2. Test both old and new 3.
Flip the wrapper
Retains Backwards Compatibility Write, Test, Flip
Projects
Set a Standard Projects:
wp_insert_post
wp_insert_post (Why?)
1. Write wp_insert_post WP_Post::create $wpdb->insert( "INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts" ) wp_set_post_categories()
wp_set_post_tags() wp_slash()
2. Test wp_insert_post WP_Post::create $wpdb->insert( "INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts" ) exercise
left to reader wp_set_post_categories() wp_set_post_tags() wp_slash()
3. Flip WP_Post::create $wpdb->insert( "INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts" ) wp_set_post_categories() wp_set_post_tags()
wp_slash() wp_insert_post
3. Flip WP_Post::create $wpdb->insert( "INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts" ) wp_set_post_categories() wp_set_post_tags()

Rewrites
<?php add_rewrite_rule( 'archives/date/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$', 'index.php?year=$matches[1]&monthnum=$matches[2]' );
Routers $app = new \Slim\App; $app->get('/hello/{name}', function (Request $request, Response
$response) { Slim Framework Route::get('user/{id}', function ($id) { Laravel Symfony class BlogController extends Controller { /** * @Route("/blog", name="blog_list") */ public function listAction() {
'index.php?rest_route=/$matches[1]' ); add_action( 'init', function () { global $wp; $wp->add_query_var(
'rest_route' ); }); add_action( 'parse_request', function () { global $wp; if ( empty( $wp->query_vars['rest_route'] ) ) { return; } // Finally, do something. }); add_rewrite_rule( '^wp-json/(.*)?',
function () { // Much easier. } ); add_rewrite_rule( '^wp-json/(.*)?',
'index.php?year=$matches[1]&monthnum=$matches[2]' ); add_rewrite_rule( 'archives/date/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$',
function ( $matches ) { global $wp_query; $args = [

add_rewrite_rule( 'login/?$', function () { get_header(); wp_login_form(); get_footer(); } );
1. Write wrappers 2. Test both old and new 3.
Flip the wrapper

Plugin Dependencies
<?php /** * Plugin Name: Amazing Plugin * Requires: other-plugin,
rest-api */ add_plugin_dependencies( __FILE__, [ 'other-plugin', 'rest-api' ] );
Conflicts? Plugin Dependencies
Already a Problem Plugin Dependencies
Even bigger?
