Install
This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/shstkvch/m83/archive/refs/heads/master.zipNo built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

M83 is a very simple routing plugin for WordPress. It lets you define routes (in a routes.php file in your theme root) and point them to controller/helper classes, freeing you from manually writing helper initialisation code in template.php files.
M83 doesn't conflict with WordPress's normal routing; you can introduce it in addition to traditional template files.
Usage
- Install the plugin
- Create a routes.php file in your theme route. It should look a bit like this:
<?php
//
// Router
//
use M83\Router as Router;
Router::get( 'index', 'indexHelper' );- Create your routes by assigning a template slug (like index, archive, singular, archive-category) to a helper class. You can specify the method to call on the class by using an @ sign, like this:
Router::get( 'singular', 'singularHelper@view' );
Router::get( 'singular-slug', 'singularHelper@special' );- M83 will direct requests to the slugs you define to a new instance of the helper classes you specify. If you don't specify a method, M83 will attempt to call a method on the class called 'main'.
Notes
- It doesn't matter where your helper classes are stored, but theme-directory/helpers/ makes sense to me.
- The plugin will throw an exception if you route to a helper that doesn't exist
