I developed this little plugin as learning tool for delving into Wordpress v2.5's new shortcodes functionality, along with getting AJAX to work on the administration pages for a better interface. (If anything it is a great learning tool for anyone wanting to write a plugin.)<\/p>\n\n

This plugin allows for any number of phrases to be used in a random manner about your website. Simply install and input your phrases in the option page and place your tags.<\/p>\n\n

Future development:\n* Multiple random lists\n* Ability to choose a specific phrase by id<\/p>\n\n

Usage<\/h3>\n\n

The plugin can be called via three methods, two are for themes, and the third is for within a post\/page's content.<\/p>\n\n

Theme methods:<\/p>\n\n

<?php jqs_random(); ?>\n<?php jqs_get_random(); ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
Both functions take one attribute $options which is an array that may contain any of the following boolean values:<\/p>\n\n
\"stripwhitespace\" => 0, \"addslashes\" => 0, \"htmlspecialchars\" => 0\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
For inclusion within a post or page, use the new Shortcode;<\/p>\n\n
[jqs-random]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
and once again any of the three attributes can be added:<\/p>\n\n
[jqs-random stripwhitespace=\"0\" addslashes=\"0\" htmlspecialchars=\"0\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
The three attributes are modifiers to the output so that you can always put the data where you want:<\/p>\n\n
    \n
  • stripwhitespace -- will replace all spaces with underscores.<\/li>\n
  • addslashes -- will return data after it is passed thru PHP's addslashes() function.<\/li>\n
  • htmlspecialchars -- will return data after is is pass thru PHP's htmlspecialchars() function.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
    Standard installation:<\/p>\n\n
      \n
    1. Upload files to your \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/em> directory preserving the sub-folder structure.<\/li>\n
    2. Activate the plugin via the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.<\/li>\n
    3. Add tags to your theme, posts and pages.<\/li>\n<\/ol>","raw_excerpt":"A simple random phrase plugin that can be used anywhere, via PHP or shortcodes.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/2908","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2908"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/jqs"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2908"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=2908"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=2908"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=2908"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=2908"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=2908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
