<h4>WordPress template tags</h4>
<p>To make it easy to edit themes and plugins there are many build in <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags" rel="nofollow ugc">template tags</a> within the WordPress code. I did not found all the tags I wanted so I created them and now provides as a plugin.</p>
<p>For usage go to “<a href='https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-extra-template-tags/installation/' rel="ugc">Installation</a>“</p>
<h4>Updates</h4>
<pre><code>0.4 - _get_category_count() and _category_count() functions updated
0.3 - _get_depth(), _is_child(), is_grandchild() functions created
0.2 - _get_the_content_with_formatting() function created
0.1 - Plugin created
</code></pre>
<h4>Prevents collisions</h4>
<p>Every extra template tag with this plugin has an underscore before the function name. That is to prevent collisions if the WordPress team develop the functions in the future.</p>
<h4>Add an extra template tag</h4>
<p>If you have an own extra template tag, send it to me and if it is a good one I will include it in the next plugin update.

WP Extra Template Tags

This plugin provides Wordpress users with extra template tags. It can be used in themes or plugins.

Fortes

<p>The Top Level Categories plugin allows you to remove the prefix before the URL to your category page. For example, instead of http://fortes.com/category/work, I use http://fortes.com/work for the address my “work” category. WordPress doesn’t allow you to have a blank prefix for categories (they insert <code>category/</code> before the name), this plugin works around that restriction.</p>
