Readme

BJO102Press

This is a plugin with helpers that I've developed in WordPress over the years.


Features

  • Site Administrator User Role (Clients)
  • Admin Dashboard Customisations
  • Helper Methods
  • Shortcodes
    • Elementor Galleries
    • AJAX Posts Archives
    • Post Single Navigation
  • Filter Hooks

Installation

If you're cloning this project, remember to run composer install as this relies on the vendor directory to work.


Site Administratior

UserRoles/initClientRole.php

This is our custom user role for clients. In previous versions, this was thought of as an administrator with capabilities removed, now it's more like an editor with capabilities added. It's important that clients are not able to install plugins, edit themes code, or change essential settings for the site.

Alert: Due to changing client requirements, such as full access to the Elementor Theme Builder, the manage_options has been granted to this user role. This should be changed - grant access to the Theme Builder but not WordPress general settings.


Admin Dashboard Customisations

classes/Admin.php

The WordPress logo in the admin bar should be removed, and the branding on the admin footer should be replaced with that of your own brand

DVWP Settings

Views/AdminSettingsMain.php

Current location: Settings > DVWP settings

Branding

  • Login Logo image and link.
  • Login screen colour scheme.
  • Admin branding.

Helper Methods

BJO102Press comes with helper functions for some basic

You can find all of these helper methods in Classes/Utils.php.


Shortcodes

Shortcodes are loaded in classes/Shortcodes.php and are defined in the Shortcodes folder.

[dv_posts]

A posts archive with ajax filtering capabilities.

See Classes/Posts.php for how this works.

[dv_elementor_gallery]

An image gallery that uses Elementor Code for modal slideshows.

See Classes/ElementorGallery.php for how this works.

[dv_post_single_navigation]

An automatically generated navigation menu for a post, with links to certain elements within the content.

The content is pre-filtered for headings, and then a custom attribute to them. The same functions and arguements are used to generate menu items and anchor links (no need to use IDs).

See Main.php and Utils.php for how this works.
