When creating plug-ins for WordPress, there are times when you need to make a settings panel. Sometimes, you need more than one page, and they can be quite complicated.
So far, I have been programming/coding them alone. I try to make most of the WordPress original Admin design, but for sophisticated panels, I get a spaghetti of PHP and HTML code.
Also, every time, I have to write code that gets the data submitted by the user, analyses and saves it, and return a response.
What solution are you using for your plugins? Are you using a template engine, or just mixing PHP code with HTML? Are there ready framework that offers such a solution?
Update
I found the solution to this problem. It’s provided by WordPress, and it’s very simple and intuitive. This blog post describes how to use the settings API which allows to create a settings/option page with ease.
There are indeed some frameworks
