WordPress Plugin functionality

class oPasswords {

//public or private $var main different is scope, when you have doubt take public
public $options;

//Wordpress calls init while initiation the plugin. So all your predefined are initialized
    public function __construct() {
        add_action('init', array($this, 'init'));
    }
// Initiate plugin, if you have things that you will initialize. Its not required

    public function init() {

    }

}

new oPasswords();

The plugin still do nothing, that we have to develop.
First we initiate some values we use.
We also can set a hook, a hook is a place where WordPress execute a given function.
In this case, when install do “paswords_install()”, when uninstall do “passwords_remove()”.
Most of the time is that used to set some values used by the plugin but saved by WordPress.
All other function calls will explained in order of importance.

    public function init() {
        //set install hook, for adding of removing options
        register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array($this, 'passwords_install'));
        //* Runs on plugin deactivation*/
        register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array($this, 'passwords_remove'));
        //register_deactivation_hook( __FILE__, $this->passwords_remove());
        //get some CONSTANT values
        $this->defenitions();

        $ok = load_plugin_textdomain('passwords', false, dirname(plugin_basename(__FILE__)) . '/languages');

        add_action('admin_menu', array($this, 'pw_actions'));

        add_shortcode('passwords-new', array($this, 'wp_passwords_new'));
        add_shortcode('passwords-ex', array($this, 'wp_passwords_explain'));

        $this->wp_passwords_add_css_files();
        //$this->wp_passwords_add_javascript_files();

        $this->get_option();
    }

Main action done is pw_actions(), this was initiated in

public function init()

        //ADD function pw_actions() to admin menu

        add_action('admin_menu', array($this, 'pw_actions'));

This function makes the admin menu entries, and link them to sub menu items and other functions.

    public function pw_actions() {
        // Link in het admin menu
        if (is_admin()) {
            add_menu_page('CreatePasswords',        //page_title
                __('CreatePasswords', 'passwords'), //menu_title
                'administrator',                    //capability
                'passcreate',                       //menu_slug   IMPORTANT == parent_slug for others
                array($this, "load_passcreate"),    //function
                'dashicons-admin-network', 7);      //set icon
            add_submenu_page('passcreate',          //parent_slug IMPORTANT
                'Settings',                         //page_title
                'Initials',                         //menu_title
                'administrator',                    //capability
                'passinit',                         //menu_slug
                array($this, "load_passinit"));     //function
            add_submenu_page('passcreate', 
                'Settings', 
                'Documentation', 
                'administrator', 
                'passdoc', 
                array($this, "load_passdoc"));
            add_action('admin_menu', 'wp_passwords_actions');
        }
    }

There is a difference in menu_title, the firs one is __(‘CreatePasswords’, ‘passwords’) the second one is “Initials”, the difference is that the first one will translated to the local language the second one not. I will explaine later why and how.

STILL IN PROGRESS

First of all we must have a idea what we want to develop, in this case:

1. We want to develop a password generator.
2. Generator must be useable in front and backend of the website.
3. Shortcodes has to be for frontend available.
4. User can choose which type of  encryption he or she want to use.
5. User can set how many repeats the plugin use.
6. Documentation available in menu.

WordPress plugin Initialisation:

/*
  Plugin Name: opasswords
  Plugin URI : http://www.abs-hosting.nl/cms/new-password/
  Description: Encrypted Passwords plugin.
  Author     : CS ABS-Hosting.nl
  Author     : CS  : ABS-Hosting.nl / Walchum.net
  Version    : 1.0
  Author URI : http://www.abs-hosting.nl
 */

Thats all !,

if the above text is saved as passwords.php and installed as plugin it will do nothing only it will show your information. In WordPress it is a valid plugin and will apear in the plugin list.

• Pluginname is now called opasswords.
• Url to plugin form or download file.
• Short description
• Author
• Version is of your choice, 1, 0.1 etc.etc.
• Author Url, link to your own website

A litle strange is it that the file-name and class-name do not have to be the same!

The actual class :

class oPasswords {

    public $options;

    public function __construct() {
        add_action('init', array($this, 'init'));
    }

    /**
     * Initiate plugin
     */
    public function init() {
        //set install hook, for adding of removing options
        register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array($this, 'passwords_install'));
        //* Runs on plugin deactivation*/
        register_activation_hook(__FILE__, array($this, 'passwords_remove'));
        //register_deactivation_hook( __FILE__, $this->passwords_remove());
        //get some CONSTANT values
        $this->defenitions();

        $ok = load_plugin_textdomain('passwords', false, dirname(plugin_basename(__FILE__)) . '/languages');

        add_action('admin_menu', array($this, 'pw_actions'));

        add_shortcode('passwords-new', array($this, 'wp_passwords_new'));
        add_shortcode('passwords-ex', array($this, 'wp_passwords_explain'));

        $this->wp_passwords_add_css_files();
        //$this->wp_passwords_add_javascript_files();

        $this->get_option();
    }
}

This class is center point of the plugin. All functions, who are called in this class, must be available and give correct responses otherwise the plugin will not be INSTALLED by WordPress.
