azurecurve ClassicPress Plugins: Snippets

This is part of the azurecurve ClassicPress Plugins which introduces the plugins I have available for ClassicPress.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is a brand new one I’ve developed to make life easier by allowing the creation of snippets of HTML or other code or CSS; Snippets.

Functionality

Allows snippets of HTML, PHP, JavaScript and CSS to be created; an alternative to using a functions.php file.

Snippets can be used to create re-usable HTML or JavaScript snippets or to create PHP to add_actions or add_filters without needing to add them to the functions.php file or create a plugin.

The following types of snippet can be created:

• HTML – can be loaded using the shortcode.
• Internal CSS – automatically added as internal stylesheet.
• CSS Stylesheet – automatically loaded.
• Internal JavaScript – automatically added as internal JavaScript.
• JavaScript File – automatically loaded.
• PHP – can be loaded using the shortcode.
• PHP File – automatically loaded.

Shortcode usage is either [snippet id=1013] (where the supplied id value is a snippet post_id) or [snippet slug=’hello-world’].

All snippets are loaded only on the site front end; this protects the admin dashboard from white screen errors caused by badly formed PHP.

Download

The plugin can be downloaded via my Development site.
