README

This library has the goal of make simple the creation of CRUD elements in wordpress, such as meta boxes, extra fields in terms and option pages.

Loading library

If you put the library in the wp-content dir, you can load it by the following way:

<?php
include_once(WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/WD/lib/load.php');

Adding a meta box

You can create a meta box with the function wd_meta_box():

<?php
function register_meta_boxes(){
	wd_meta_box('Extra post options') // meta box name
		->setPage('post') // the post type where the meta box will appear (post, page etc)
		->setContext('side') // side, advanced etc...
		->add(Form::text('my_extra_option')->setLabel('Extra option: ')) // add a field to the meta box
		->add(Form::select('author_box')->setLabel('Author box: ')
				->add('top', 'Show author box in top')
				->add('bottom', 'Show author box in bottom')
		)
		->add(Form::checkbox('is_featured')->setLabel('Post featured? '))
		->init(); // init the necessary hooks
}
add_action('admin_init', 'register_meta_boxes');

See how the UI looks like:

You can get information of a post by the following way:

<?php
// get
wd_mb()->getAuthorBox($postID); // or wd_mb()->get('author_box', $postID);

// prints
wd_mb()->theAuthorBox($postID); // or wd_mb()->the('author_box', $postID);

// check if is empty
wd_mb()->isMyExtraOptionEmpty($postID); // or wd_mb()->isEmpty('my_extra_option', $postID);

// example:
while(have_posts()): the_post()
	$authorBoxPosition = wd_mb()->getAuthorBox(); // $postID is not necessary in this case
	
	if($authorBoxPosition == 'top')
		call_some_function_that_display_the_author_box();
		
	echo 'Title: '; the_title(); // post title
	
	if($authorBoxPosition == 'bottom')
		call_some_function_that_display_the_author_box();
	
	if(!wd_mb()->isMyExtraOptionEmpty()){
		echo 'My extra option: '; wd_mb()->theMyExtraOption(); // prints
	}
endwhile;

Adding extra taxonomy fields

<?php
wd_taxonomy('category') // which taxonomy you wanna affect
	->add(Form::textarea('extra_info')->setLabel('Extra information: ')) // add field
	->add(Form::text('order')->setLabel('Order')) // another
	->init();

See how the UI looks like:

To get data from a term:

<?php
// get
wd_tax()->getOrder($termID); // or wd_tax()->get('order', $termID);

// prints
wd_tax()->theAuthorBox($termID); // or wd_tax()->the('order', $termID);

// check if is empty
wd_tax()->isExtraInfoEmpty($termID); // or wd_tax()->isEmpty('extra_info', $termID);

Creating admin menus

<?php
function register_admin_pages(){
	wd_page('Site options') // Page title
		->add(Form::text('video_limit')->setLabel('Video pages show at most: '))
		->init();
		
	wd_page('Social Network', 'site-options') // this page is child of Site options ("site-options" is the slug of "Site options")
		->add(Form::text('facebook_link')->setLabel('Facebook: '))
		->add(Form::text('twitter_link')->setLabel('Twitter: '))
		->add(Form::text('flickr_link')->setLabel('Flickr: '))
		->add(Form::text('youtube_link')->setLabel('Youtube: '))
		->init();
}
add_action('_admin_menu', 'register_admin_pages'); // the hook _admin_menu happens before the admin_menu hook

See how the UI looks like:

To get data from a page option:

<?php
// get
wd_opt()->getVideoLimit(); // or wd_opt()->get('video_limit');

// prints
wd_opt()->theVideoLimit(); // or wd_opt()->the('video_limit');

// check if is empty
wd_opt()->isYoutubeLinkEmpty(); // or wd_opt()->isEmpty('youtube_link');
