Developing WordPress plugins

Geek-talk ahead

I put together my first WordPress plugin and was going to submit it to the plugin repository but on second thought I decided not to because:

• You have to jump through a few hoops to install it
• You have to continue jumping through a few hoops to maintain it
• I may lag in the hoop-jumping maintaining the plugin myself though I’ve been updating it fairly well so far

The plugin solves the use of shortcodes like those that come with WooThemes and Elegant Themes when displayed via WPtouch/Pro on a mobile device. Without the plugin scheme the raw shortcodes will be rendered on a mobile screen which is both ugly and dysfunctional.

So if you want it go the link at the top of this page or click here.

The formatting of the plugin page isn’t pretty because it was created according to the strict guidelines of WordPress plugin documentation.

Remember, I warned you about the hoops.
