NGINX Configuration for Redirecting WordPress Uploads to a Production CDN

This configuration is designed to redirect all requests to the WordPress uploads directory (/wp-content/uploads/) to a specified production Content Delivery Network (CDN). This setup helps offload static media assets to the CDN, reducing load on the main server and improving load times.

Configuration Details:

The $production variable defines the CDN URL where the assets are located.
Requests for resources within /wp-content/uploads/ are first checked locally.

The [acf_field_unsafe/] Shortcode

On January 16, 2024, the ACF 6.2.5 security release fixed a security issue whereby the output of the [acf field="[...]"/] shortcode has its content run through wp_kses(). This removes all <script> and <iframe> tags. However, there are still situations where you may need to echo these tags when you have a site where you're confident you can trust every user on your site with contributor or higher access. Hence, this shortcode allows you to do this.

Shortcode Documentation

Retrieves the value of a specified Advanced Custom Field (ACF) based on given attributes.

This function is designed to be used as a shortcode handler for retrieving ACF field values.

	* Apply phone number masking to a specified input field.
	*
	* This function attaches an input event listener to the form field identified by the given ID.
	* It ensures that the phone number entered is formatted in the (XXX) XXX-XXXX pattern as the user types.
	*
	* The function removes non-digit characters from the input and limits the input length to 10 digits.
	* It adjusts the formatting dynamically based on the number of digits entered:

	* Obfuscates email addresses in 'mailto' links to protect them from spam bots.
	*
	* This function first selects all anchor elements (<a>) in the document that have a 'href' attribute
	* starting with 'mailto:'. For each of these mailto links, it retrieves the email address,
	* obfuscates it, and then modifies the link's 'href' attribute to use a JavaScript code snippet
	* for redirection. This obfuscation involves converting each character of the email address
	* into its corresponding character code, joined by dots. Additionally, a click event listener
	* is added to each link to handle the redirection in a user-friendly manner. When a user
	* clicks on the obfuscated link, the browser redirects them to the actual 'mailto' link,

	* ELEMENTOR PRO LINKED GALLERY IMAGES
	*
	* Adds event listeners to elements with the class 'e-gallery-item' once the DOM is fully loaded.
	* This function iterates over each 'e-gallery-item' and checks against a predefined array of URLs (links).
	*
	* If a valid URL is found at the corresponding index in the links array, the function sets the element's
	* cursor style to 'pointer', assigns the URL to the href attribute, and sets the target attribute to '_blank'
	* for opening the link in a new tab.
