The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is a new fork of someone else’s plugin; Sidebar Login.

Sidebar Login provides a widget which allows users to login from the sidebar using an AJAX enabled widget. I forked this plugin as it was no longer maintained; I’ve added a very small number of enhancements at the same time, but will maintain this plugin myself going forward.

The plugin I am going to cover in this post, is an existing one which has been brought up to coding standards; Series Index.

Functionality

The Series b=Index uses Series and Series Position custom fields to groups posts together into a series: the series-index shortcode can be used on a post to place the series index.

Defaults are configurable via the plugin Settings page, but parameters can be used to customise the output of each series index if required.

A series index post can be created using a Series Position of 0.

Additional shortcodes available are:

• index-of-series – which allows an index of all series index posts to be displayed.
• series-index-link – allows a link to be created back to the series index post.

This plugin integrates with the Toggle Show/Hide plugin.

Demo

This site makes extensive use of this plugin:

• The series-index shortcode has been used to include the series index at the bottom of this post.
• The index-of-series shortcode has been used on the Index of Series page.
• The first paragraph of this post uses the series-index-link shortcode to create the link back to the parent post.
