Description

PHP File Scanner is a simple WordPress plugin that displays the content of a defined PHP file within a code viewing container. The file path can be configured from the admin settings page. It is particularly useful for developers and administrators who need to review code snippets or debug file contents directly from the dashboard.

Installation & Shortcode

  1. Upload the plugin files through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
  3. Navigate to PHP File Scanner under the admin menu to set the relative path of the PHP file you wish to display.
  4. Use the [file_scanner] shortcode in your posts or pages to display the file contents.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I set the file path?

Enter the file path relative to your WordPress installation in the plugin settings page (e.g., wp-content/plugins/kiss-php-file-scanner/kiss-php-file-scanner.php).

Can I use this plugin to display any file?

The plugin is intended for PHP files only. Ensure that the file exists and that its path is correct relative to your WordPress root.
