Timeline Express Pro allows you to create multiple beautiful vertical animated and responsive timelines of posts, without writing a single line of code. Sweet!
== Description ==
Timeline Express Pro allows you to create a vertical animated timeline of announcement posts, without writing a single line of code. You simply create the 'announcement' posts, set the announcement date and publish. The timeline will populate automatically in chronological order, based on the announcement date. Easily limit the announcements displayed to Upcoming announcements, past announcements or simply display all of them.
**Features**
* Load a custom template for single announcements (new)
* Localized date formatting for international users (new)
* Hundreds of Font awesome icons included. Specify a different icon for each announcement
* CSS3 animations on scroll
* Set the color of the announcement
* Specify the length to trim each announcement, or randomize it
* Hide the date of the announcement
* Hide the 'read more' button for each announcement
* Specify an image to display for each announcement
* Delete announcements on uninstallation (so no orphan posts are hanging around in your database)
* Easy to use shortcode to place the timeline wherever your heart desires ( `[timeline-express]` )
* TinyMCE button to generate the shortcode
* Specify Ascending vs Descending display order
* Highly extensible
* Translatable

If you find this plugin useful, or it helps in anyway, please consider making a <a href="http://www.evan-herman.com/contact/?contact-reason=I%20want%20to%20make%20a%20donation%20for%20all%20your%20hard%20work">donation</a> for its continued development.</strong>
== Installation ==
1. Download the plugin .zip file
2. Log in to yourdomain.com/wp-admin
3. Click Plugins -> Add New -> Upload
4. Activate the plugin
6. On the left hand menu, hover over 'Timeline Express' and click 'New Announcement'
7. Begin populating the timeline with events. (Note: Events will appear in chronological order according to the <strong>announcement date</strong>)
8. Once you have populated the timeline, head over to the settings page (Settings > Timeline Express) to customize your timeline.
9. Create a new page, and enter the shortcode [timeline-express] to display the vertical timeline (Note: Timeline Express displays best on full width pages)
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= How do I use this plugin? =
Begin by simply installing the plugin. Once the plugin has been installed, go ahead and begin creating announcement posts. You'll find a new menu item just below 'Posts'.
After you have a substantial number of announcements set up, you're ready to display the timeline on the front end of your site.
Timeline express displays best on full width pages, but is not limited to them. Create a new page, and drop the shortcode into the page - `[timeline-express]`.
Publish your page, and view it on the front end the see your new super sweet timeline! (scroll for animation effects!)
= What template is the single announcement post using? Can I customize it at all? I want to do x, y or z. =
The single announcement post is using a custom template file that comes pre-bundled with the plugin. If you want to customize the template for whatever reason
you can do so, by creating a directory in your active theme called 'timeline-express'. Once the directory is created, simply copy the file titled 'single-timeline-express-announcement.php' into
the newly created 'timeline-express' directory in your theme. Timeline express will then automagically pull in the newly created template in your theme root. You can go ahead and customize
it to your hearts desire without fear of losing any changes in future updates!
= Can I create more than one timeline? =
At the moment no, but I will consider adding that into a future update if people show enough interest.
= At what width are the breakpoints set? =
Breakpoints are set at 822px. The timeline will shift/re-adjust automatically using masonry based on the height of each announcement container.
= How can I translate this plugin? =
The text-domain for all gettext functions is `timeline-express`.
If you enjoy this plugin and want to contribute, I'm always looking for people to help translate the plugin into any of the following languages, credit will be given where credit is due :

<strong>Developer Documentation</strong>
**Hooks + Filters**
**Use custom images instead of Font Awesome icons (props <a href="https://github.com/petenelson">Petenelson</a>)**
Timeline express expects a font-awsome icon to be selected and used for the timeline. You can now specify custom images using the following filter:
Example:
For example usage , see the following <a href="https://gist.github.com/EvanHerman/6bbc8de82f34b4cb3c5c">Gist</a>.
Original Pull Request: https://github.com/EvanHerman/Timeline-Express/pull/7
**Use Alternate Image Size For Announcements (New v1.1.5.5)**
By default Timeline Express generates a custom image size to use within the timeline. If you would like to use another image size, you can use the following filter.
Example:
<code>
function change_timeline_express_announcement_image_size( $image_size ) {
$image_size = 'full';
return $image_size;
}
add_filter( 'timeline-express-announcement-img-size' , 'change_timeline_express_announcement_image_size' );
</code>
**Define your own custom fields to use in Announcement posts (New v1.1.5)**
Users can now add custom fields to Timeline Express announcement posts. This allows for greater control over the announcements and the front end display. Using this hook in conjunction with a custom single announcement template will give you the greatest control.
Example:
<code>
function add_custom_timeline_express_field( $custom_fields ) {
$custom_fields = array(
array(
'name' => __( 'Example Text Field', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'desc' => __( 'this is an example user defined text field.', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'id' => 'announcement_user_defined_text',
'type' => 'text_medium',
),
array(
'name' => __( 'Example WYSIWYG', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'desc' => __( 'this is an example wysiwyg field.', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'id' => 'announcement_user_defined_wysiwyg',
'type' => 'wysiwyg',
),
array(
'name' => __( 'Example Email Field', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'desc' => __( 'this is an example user defined email field.', 'timeline-express-pro' ),
'id' => 'announcement_user_defined_money',
'type' => 'text_email',
)
);
return $custom_fields;
}
add_filter( 'timeline_express_custom_fields' , 'add_custom_timeline_express_field' );
</code>
This example would add 3 new fields below the 'Announcement Image' field on the announcement post.
The first field is a simple text field. The second field is an example WYSIWYG, and the third is an email field.
Note: You can add as many fields as you would like, and display them on the front end using the <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta" target="_blank" title="WordPress Codex: get_post_meta()">get_post_meta()</a> function.
**Customize the 'announcement' slug (New v1.1.4)**
Users can now define their own slug for announcement posts using the provided filter `'timeline-express-slug'`. This alters the URL structure of the announcement, possibly for SEO purposes. You would enter the following code into your active themes functions.php file.
After you enter the code into the functions.php file, you'll want to refresh your permalinks. You can do so by going to 'Settings > Permalinks' and simply clicking save. That will prevent the 404 page you may see upon altering the slug.
Example:
<code>
// alter '/announcement/' to be '/event/'
function timeline_express_change_announcement_slug( $slug ) {
$slug = 'event';
return $slug;
}
add_filter('timeline-express-slug', 'timeline_express_change_announcement_slug' );
</code>
This example would change the default `/announcement/` slug, to `/event/`.
**Alter the 'Read More' button text (New v1.1.3.1)**
Users can now alter the 'Read More' button text using the provided gettext filter and the 'timeline-express' text domain.
Example:
<code>
// alter 'Read more' to say 'View Announcement'
function timeline_express_change_readmore_text( $translated_text, $untranslated_text, $domain ) {
switch( $untranslated_text ) {
case 'Read more':
$translated_text = __( 'View Announcement','timeline-express-pro' );
break;
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter('gettext', 'timeline_express_change_readmore_text', 20, 3);
</code>
This example would alter 'Read more' to say 'View Announcement'.
**Add custom classes to the 'Read More' button (New v1.1.3.1)**
Users can now add custom classes to the 'Read More' announcement button. This allows for greater control in fitting the Timeline into your currently active theme.
Parameters :
$button_classes = default button classes assigned to the 'Read More' button
Example:
<code>
// add a custom class to the timeline express readmore link
function timeline_express_custom_readmore_class( $button_classes ) {
return $button_classes . 'custom-class-name';
}
add_filter( 'timeline-express-read-more-class' , 'timeline_express_custom_readmore_class' );
</code>
This example would print the following 'Read More' button HTML onto the page :
`<a href="http://site.com/link-to-announcement" class="cd-read-more btn btn-primary custom-class-name">Read more</a>`
**Setup a custom date format for front end display (New v1.0.9)**
New in version 1.0.9 is the localization of dates on the front end. The date format is now controlled by your date settings inside of 'General > Settings'.
If, for one reason or another, you'd like to specify a different date format than provided by WordPress core you can use the provided filter `timeline_express_custom_date_format`.
The one parameter you need to pass into your function is $date_format, which is (as it sounds) the format of the date.
Some formatting examples:
* `m.d.Y` - 11.19.2014
* `d-m-y` - 11-19-14
* `d M y` - 19 Nov 2014
* `D j/n/Y` - Wed 11/19/2014
* `l jS \of\ F` - Wednesday 19th of November
Example:
<code>
function custom_te_date_format( $date_format ) {
$date_format = "M d , Y"; // will print the date as Nov 19 , 2014
return $date_format;
}
add_filter( 'timeline_express_custom_date_format' , 'custom_te_date_format' , 10 );
</code>
* d - Numeric representation of a day, with leading zeros 01 through 31.
* m - Numeric representation of a month, with leading zeros 01 through 12.
* y - Numeric representation of a year, two digits.
* D - Textual representation of a day, three letters Mon through Sun.
* j - Numeric representation of a day, without leading zeros 1 through 31.
* n - Numeric representation of a month, without leading zeros 1 through 12.
* Y - Numeric representation of a year, four digits.
* S - English ordinal suffix for the day of the month. Consist of 2 characters st, nd, rd or th.
* F - Textual representation of a month, January through December.
* M - Textual representation of a month, three letters Jan through Dec.

**Load Your Own Single Announcement Template File (New v1.0.8)**
By default all single announcements will try and load a single.php template file. If that can't be found, we've done our best to implement a template for you. If your unhappy with the template file we've provided you have two options. Your first option is to copy over the single-announcement-template directory contained within the plugin into your active themes root. This will trigger the plugin to load that file instead. You can then customize this file to your hearts content without fear of losing any of your changes in the next update.
Your next option is to use our new filter for loading your own custom template file. If for whatever reason you've designed or developed your own single.php file which you would rather use, or you just want to use your themes page.php template instead, you can use the provided filter to change the loaded template. Here is an example ( you want to drop this code into your active theme's functions.php file ) :
Example:
<code>
// By default Timeline Express uses single.php for announcements
// you can load page.php instead
// just change page.php to whatever your template file is named
// keep in mind, this is looking in your active themes root for the template
function custom_timeline_express_template_file( $template_file ) {
$template_file = 'page.php';
return $template_file;
}
add_filter( 'timeline_express_custom_template' , 'custom_timeline_express_template_file' , 10 );
</code>
**Alter the Arguments for the Timeline Express Announcement Query (New v1.1.6.8)**
If you want to perform a more advanced query for arguments, alter the order the announcements display in on a specific page, change what announcements get displayed or any other alteration to the query - you can use the following filter.
The following example will check the current page, and if on page with ID 1190 the announcements will be displayed in descending order.
Example:
<code>
/*
* Alter Timeline Express Announcement Query
* Parameters:
* $query_args - default query arguments
* $post_data - the global post data which contains all data stored in global $post (page id, page title etc.)
*/
function alter_query_args_for_te_express( $query_args, $post_data ) {
// confirm we are on page 1190
if( $post_data->ID == 1190 ) {
$query_args['order'] = 'DESC';
}
// return the arguments
return $query_args;
}
add_filter( 'timeline_express_announcement_query_args', 'alter_query_args_for_te_express', 10, 2 );
