<p>This plugin will help you quickly set up a standard WordPress settings page for your project, be it a theme or a plugin. That’s it!</p>
<p>Below is a “Hello World” piece of code to quickly get you an idea. It will generate a standard settings page with a checkbox, complete markup, save logic.</p>
<pre><code><?php 
 add_action( 'init', 'my_options_create_page', 11 );  function my_options_create_page() {   $options_page = new Aff();    // Add a checkbox   $options_page->add_field(     array(       'name'        => 'simple_checkbox',       'label'       => __( 'Is this plugin awesome?', 'textdomain' ),       'type'        => 'checkbox',       'description' => __( 'Help your users with a nice description.', 'textdomain' ),       'section'     => 'general', // Optional. Default section. You can add new ones as easily as adding a field.     )   );    // Render the page - this is mandatory   $options_page->init();  ?> </code></pre>
<h4>There are a zillion options plugins out there. Why this?</h4>
<p>All plugins will inevitably have their limitations, but Admin Form Framework is written in form of an object that can be easily extended to suit your needs. This is what we use internally at <a href="http://dreamproduction.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Dream Production</a>.</p>
<h4>Get started</h4>
<p>For a complete example / settings page template, open up the included my_options.php file from <code>examples</code> folder.</p>


Admin Form Framework

This plugin provides a wrapper for the WordPress Settings API that is a much easier, faster and extensible way of building your settings forms.

AAM Plugin

<p>ConfigPress is a development tool with the main intent to avoid any hard-coding and give an easy and flexible interface to manage all your website custom settings (options).</p>
<p>With ConfigPress you can define your own custom option or group of options and retrieve them in your code by simply calling ConfigPress::get(‘option_name’) method. This way you do not have to hard-code any sensitive or environment specific options in your custom code.</p>

ConfigPress

I copied the code for defining admin users from AAM to ConfigPress but that crashed the whole website. I had to delete the plugin to get access to the website again. As there's no reaction on my support mail to AAM since two weeks, I always have to switch of AAM and can not install ConfigPress, to change the user rights and roles. 
I will now search for another plugin which can restrict the access better and is more user friendly (the usability of ConfigPress and AAM is horrible, but in the past the functions were ok).



Doesn't work at all

Honestly I think that any rating system sucks. 99% times it is based on somebody's opinion which is always a subject for discussion.
So I rate myself 5 stars just because I can.



Why not

I think this is good plugin to easy manage some website options.
This is not really good solutions for clients, as they can broken something, but for developers that's fine.
Also I think need use helper function over this plugin for gettings settings, to avoid site down in case disabling plugin.

Simple but useful plugin

An easy way to manage all your website custom settings.
