<p>This plugin provides a simple way of displaying up-to-date information about specific plugins hosted on the WordPress Plugin Directory in your blog posts and pages. It is intended for plugin authors who want to display details of their own plugins from the WP Plugin Directory on their blog and want those details to remain up to date. It’s also useful for bloggers who may blog about plugins and would like the details in their blog posts to remain up to date.</p>
<p>This plugin uses WordPress shortcodes so it’s easy to include any information about a particular plugin in your post or page.</p>
<h4>Er, what?</h4>
<p>You want to blog about a particular plugin on your blog and include various details of it in your blog post (eg. the number of downloads or the last updated date). You could manually type this information into your post but this means that in a few days/weeks/months’ time the information will be out of date.</p>
<p>This plugin allows you to use shortcodes in your blog posts and pages which periodically fetches this information from the WordPress Plugin Directory, therefore ensuring the information always remains up to date.</p>
<h4>Here’s an example</h4>
<p>This plugin uses WordPress shortcodes so it’s easy to include any information about a particular plugin in your post or page.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>This plugin has been downloaded [plugin downloaded] times!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This will produce the following content in your blog post:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>This plugin has been downloaded 1,650 times!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The download count will remain current without you having to touch your blog post again.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<ol>
<li>Write a new blog post or page, or open an existing post or page for editing.</li>
<li>In the ‘Plugin Info’ box on that screen, type the slug of the plugin (see <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-info/screenshots/" rel="ugc">screenshot #1</a>). The plugin slug is the last part of the URL of the plugin’s page on wordpress.org.</li>
<li>Add a shortcode to your blog entry like this: <code>[plugin version]</code> and save the post. (That’s the word <code>plugin</code> and not the slug of the plugin).</li>
<li>Take a look at your post and the version number of the plugin will be displayed.</li>
</ol>
<p>For a complete list of all the fields you can display, see the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-info/faq/" rel="ugc">FAQ page</a>.</p>

<p>CiviCRM Admin Utilities modifies CiviCRM’s behaviour in single site and multisite installs. It does a number of useful things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Supplies a theme for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress (see below)</li>
<li>Modifies the styling of the CiviCRM menu to fix a number of issues</li>
<li>Fixes the appearance of the Shoreditch extension in WordPress admin</li>
<li>Fixes the appearance of the WordPress Access Control form where necessary</li>
<li>Offers options to prevent various CiviCRM Stylesheets from loading on the front-end</li>
<li>Adds a handy CiviCRM Shortcuts menu to the WordPress Admin Bar</li>
<li>Allows you to choose which Post Types the CiviCRM shortcode button appears on</li>
<li>In WordPress multisite, allows you to hide CiviCRM on sub-sites</li>
<li>Allows you to remove “administer CiviCRM” capabilities from sub-site administrators</li>
<li>Allows suppression of the “change of email” notification when a CiviCRM Contact’s primary email is changed</li>
<li>Gives an overview of the relationships between Users and Contacts via the “Manage Users” screen</li>
</ul>
<h3>CiviCRM Admin Theme</h3>
<p>Version 0.5 introduces a new theme for CiviCRM admin screens that is more in keeping with WordPress. It can be enabled on the CiviCRM Admin Utilities settings page. Feedback is welcome – please open an issue on the plugin’s <a href="https://github.com/christianwach/civicrm-admin-utilities" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a> if you find any bugs or have suggestions for improvements.</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<p>This plugin requires a minimum of <em>WordPress 4.9</em> and <em>CiviCRM 5.39</em> but recommends you keep up to date with both.</p>
<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>If you have installed the Shoreditch extension for CiviCRM, then this plugin does its best to make it compatible with WordPress. Unfortunately, Shoreditch version 0.1-alpha25 now makes it very difficult to override the margin applied to the body tag on the front end of your site, so you will have to do this yourself.</p>
<h3>Plugin Development</h3>
<p>This plugin is in active development. For feature requests and bug reports (or if you’re a plugin author and want to contribute) please visit the plugin’s <a href="https://github.com/christianwach/civicrm-admin-utilities" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a>.</p>
