Plugins List 1.0 is out

Hey folks,
I finally managed to put my hands on Plugins List and here’s the long overdue 1.0 version.

I am ashamed to confess that the Shortcodes API introduction had gone unnoticed, so I hadn’t realised that everything I needed to make the plugin more flexible was there already. Bad me. As soon as I started experimenting with shortcodes I realised I had to migrate Plugins List code. And here’s the result.

What’s new? Basically now you can specify the amount of data you want displayed. So, let’s say you just want a simple list with the plugin titles. You just need to do this:

[plugins_list format='<li>#LinkedTitle#</li>']

The placeholders available are

  • #Title#
  • #PluginURI#
  • #Author#"
  • #AuthorURI#
  • #Version#
  • #Description#
  • #LinkedTitle#
  • #LinkedAuthor#

I guess their meaning is self-evident. If you don't specify the format parameter you'll the default format, thesame as Plugins List 0.2.2.

By default, Plugins List only shows your active plugins. If you want to have your inactive plugins displayed as well, add the argument show_inactive='true', like this:

[plugins_list show_inactive='true']

Obviously you can freely combine show_inactive and format.

A note for upgraders: I have changed the shortcode to conform to the Wordpress standards. Make sure you add an underscore. It was [plugins list], now it is [plugins_list]. The option to show inactive plugins has also changed, see the previous example.

If you haven't tried plugins List yet, you can download it here.

Enjoy!

Davide
