I don’t know about you, but I missed my inline Post Preview, and thought the extra step of clicking preview>> and having it open in another window was totally ridiculous. Not to mention unnecessary.
You need to be comfortable working in the background code of your post.php, but it is fairly simple to do. Go to the wp-admin folder on your server, find your post.php and copy & paste the code below.
Here’s the steps you will need to know…
- Open up your post.php file from your wp-admin directory.
- Navigate to approximately line 63 and find the following line of code:
include('edit-form-advanced.php'); - Directly underneath that line, add the following code:
?>
<div id='preview‘ class=’wrap’>
<h2 id=”preview-post“><?php _e(’Post Preview (updated when post is saved)’); ?></h2>
<iframe src=”<?php echo clean_url(apply_filters(’preview_post_link’, add_query_arg(’preview‘, ‘true’, get_permalink($post->ID)))); ?>” width=”100%” height=”600″ ></iframe>
</div>
<?php - Save your changes to post.php.
There, Done… Simple, huh?
