Good evening. 🙂
Well, my mother is currently using a wordpress installation for her day to day blogging.
Often, a post consists of some text and a few images, which are displayed via the very nice flexslider script.
Usually, when the post is ready, I handle the flexslider part.
However, I’m not always around, so posts get delayed, I get calls…
You know. 🙂
I’d like her to be able to do it herself, so I was thinking about writing a quick and dirty little plugin.
Basically, just select some images from the library and paste the code into the editor.
Nothing fancy, this shouldn’t take longer than a night or so.
The problem is, I’ve never developed anything wordpress, so some tips would be greatly appreciated.
Of course, I’m not afraid of reading the documentation, but I don’t have the time to really dive into it right now.
Thanks for your time. 🙂
Just take a look at the
RW_Meta_Box
library to add a drag and drop interface to add images as post meta data. That’s the most easiest approach, plus it uses the new »WP Pluploader«. For more details take a look at this answer on how to customize it and read a little in the TenderApp Knowledgebase for a how-to.
