WP_Styles WordPress Class

The WP_Styles class is used to manage and enqueue stylesheets on the front end of a WordPress site. This class can be used to add or remove stylesheets, as well as to enqueue or dequeue them.

More Information

WP_Styles is a class that helps developers interact with a theme. It ensures registered stylesheets are output in the proper order, with dependent stylesheets coming after their dependencies. While more than one instance can be created, typically the global $wp_styles is used to enqueue stylesheets, which are then output by wp_print_styles during the wp_head action. WP_Styles extends WP_Dependencies.

WP_Styles handles both external and embedded stylesheets (though the latter must be associated with one of the former), outputting a <link> or <style> element as appropriate.

Text direction

For any stylesheet, an additional stylesheet can be loaded for right-to-left text (triggered by setting $wp_styles->text_direction to ‘rtl’). The URL for this stylesheet is built by inserting ‘-rtl’ into the URL of the left-to-right stylesheet. Normally, ‘-rtl’ is inserted before the ‘.css’ extension. If ‘suffix’ is set in the stylesheet’s extra data (using WP_Dependencies::add_data() or _WP_Dependency::add_data()), ‘-rtl’ will be inserted before the suffix and ‘.css’ extension ("${suffix}.css").

Concatenation vs Printing

When it comes time to output enqueued stylesheets, WP_Styles can print them, or accumulate them in instance variables ($print_html for external and $print_code for embedded). This behaviour is controlled by the boolean instance variable $do_concat. If true, output is concatenated to the appropriate instance variable; if false, it’s printed.

Any unconditional, non-alternate stylesheet in a default directory (as determined by WP_Styles::in_default_dir()) isn’t accumulated when $do_concat is true.

Media

The media for a stylesheet is passed via the $args argument to WP_Dependencies::add().

Properties

$base_url
The base URL for the site, it gets prepended to the URL for an enqueued sheet in most cases (see $content_url for an exception). Set to the site URL (as determined by site_url() or wp_guess_url()) by default.
$content_url
The URL for the wp-content directory. Set to WP_CONTENT_URL by default. If a stylesheet URL begins with the content URL, the base URL isn’t prepended.
$default_version
Default value used when a version isn’t specified in a call to wp_enqueue_style() or wp_register_style().
$text_direction = ‘ltr’
If ‘rtl’, an addtional stylesheet will be loaded, allowing custom styling targeting right-to-left.
$do_concat = false
If true, concatenate output to $print_html and $print_code member variables rather than printing it.
$print_html = “”
holds accumulated HTML (<link> elements and conditional comments).
$print_code = “”
holds accumulated embedded style rules.
$concat = “”
list of item handles that were accumulated, separated by commas.
$concat_version = “”
list of item handles & versions that were accumulated.
$default_dirs
Path or array of paths. Used by WP_Styles::in_default_dir(). Compared directly to $src property of a stylesheet.

Hooks

Note: Refer source code for the complete list of hooks.

Actions

  • wp_default_styles – Invoked when a WP_Styles is created. The instance is passed to action hooks.

Top ↑

Filters

  • print_styles_array – Filters list of stylesheets to be output. Called from WP_Styles::all_deps().
  • style_loader_src – Filter a stylesheet URL in preparation for output. Happens after $base_url has been prepended (if warranted).
  • style_loader_tag – Filter the <link> element for a stylesheet.
