Embed code / iframes into widgets onto admin dashboard. Can also style them with CSS.
This project was built with the following frameworks, technologies and software.
These are the steps to get up and running with this plugin.
- Clone the repo into your wordpress plugin folder
git clone https://github.com/IORoot/wp-plugin__admin-widgets ./wp-content/plugins/admin-widgets
- Activate the plugin.
- Access via the 'options' sidemenu.
This plugin uses ACF Pro to build its dashboard. You need the 'Pro' version for the repeater
field functionality.
Once the plugin has been installed and activated, you can access the creator on the sidemenu under a new selection called 'options'.
You will be presented with a blank page with the "Add Row" button. Click that.
A new widget instance will be added with three fields. :
- Enabled
- Title
- Slug
- Code
This is a simple switch to enable/disable the widget on the admin dashboard. Handy for remembering code, but not using it.
This will be the title of the widget box on the admin dashboard.
A unique identifier that is used to create the widget. Don't use the same name on multiple widgets.
This is where the magic happens. Add any code you wish to be echo
out into the widget. Preferably HTML / CSS / JS.
You can use iFrames and embeds for integrating anything you wish into the widget box.
Use the code
section of the options to add whatever code you like.
Use github issues for any troubleshooting problems.
