Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/apermo-adminbar directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the 'Apermo AdminBar' plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
  3. Open Settings -> Apermo AdminBar to set up the links and colors (currently you have to repeat this on all sites)

== Screenshots ==

  1. The basic idea of the plugin, 3 instances of a website, with 3 distinct color schemes and quicklinks between the instances.
  2. The Adminbar on the frontend, showing the info panel on the right and the watermark for a draft post. The info panel can be hidden with a click. And there are keyboard shortcuts to hide the whole adminbar and the watermark to see what the site looks like for a regular user.
  3. The settings page, with the options for the first of the 3 default stages.
  4. The import and export function on the settings page.
  5. The settings page when the settings are set using the filter add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-sites', 'sites_filter' );

Frequently Asked Questions

I have more than 3 sites, can I add more?

You can do so with add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-types', 'your_filter' );

I want more color schemes!

Feel free to add more, there are other plugins that do so. Or have a look at wp_admin_css_color() in the WordPress Codex

Can I save the color schemes to my theme?

Yes, you can. Simply add and alter the following example somewhere to the functions.php of your theme

add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-sites', 'sites_filter' );

function sites_filter( $sites ) { $sites['dev']['url'] = 'http://dev.your-site.tld'; $sites['dev']['whitelist'] = array( 1,42 ); $sites['staging']['url'] = 'http://staging.your-site.tld'; $sites['live']['url'] = 'https://www.your-site.tld'; return $sites; }

Can I hide, for example the development page, for certain users

Yes, you can use the filter add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-sites', 'sites_filter' ); with the option whitelist to allow access to the corresponding site only for the whitelisted user ids. An option for this might be added in the future.

Can I change the default capability needed to access the quicklinks?

Yes, use add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-caps', 'sites_filter' ); and just return the desired capability.

I do not need the watermark, how can I remove it?

The simplest way is to use add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-watermark', function( $bool ) { return false; } ); and turn the feature off.

I do not need the statusbox, how can I remove it?

The simplest way is to use add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-statusbox', function( $bool ) { return false; } ); and turn the feature off.

I do not need the keyboard shortcuts, how can I remove it?

The simplest way is to use add_filter( 'apermo-adminbar-keycodes', function( $bool ) { return false; } ); and turn the feature off.

How can I help with the development of this plugin?

Head over to the GitHub Repository and start reading. Every bit of help is highly appreciated!
