Here are few tips on how to customize your Wordpress, without having to resort to plugins, just insert the following php code inside your functions.php file. I will be adding more.
Redirect inner page to outer domain:
add_action('template_redirect','redirect_from_to');
function redirect_from_to(){
if (is_page('mypage')){
wp_redirect('http://www.google.com',301);
exit()
}
}
Note: mypage must be created in order for the redirect to work.
Allow svg files to be uploaded:
function cc_mime_types($mimes){
$mimes['svg']='image/svg';
return $mimes;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes','cc_mime_types');
Cheers!
