Since all of WordPress core needs to benefit from the REST API, it makes sense that the most common of all WordPress plugins, Hello Dolly should also have a RESTful endpoint.

Restful Hello Dolly

This Restful Plugin for Hello Dolly is a useful enhancement for Hello Dolly.



Its awewome

As a first plugin I took an existing one and modified it. The Hello Dolly plugin was the perfect place to start. All of the lyrics have been replaced with EVERY quote from the HAL: 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey. While wandering the admin pages of your wordpress installation you will be accompanied by these sometimes creepy phrases. Most of the time they don’t make sense out of context but it’s still a laugh if you’re familiar with the movie. And if your not, you’re are missing out on a classic.

// Once you are done trying to ‘optimize’ this routine,

// please increment the following counter as a warning

// 
// total_hours_wasted_here = 5

Based on Matt Mullenweg's "Hello, Dolly." Instead of the lyrics from Louis Armstrong's Hello, Dolly you get HAL 9000 quotes.
