WP Settings

This package aims to make it easier to create settings pages for WordPress plugins. Typically, you would use the Settings API or write something custom. While the Settings API works, there is still quite a lot to set up. You still need to write the HTML for your options for example. And it gets quite complicated if you want to add tabs and tab-sections. See this comparison.

Installation

composer require jeffreyvanrossum/wp-settings

Usage

Basic example

use Jeffreyvr\WPSettings\WPSettings;

$settings = new WPSettings(__('My Plugin Settings'));

$tab = $settings->add_tab(__( 'General', 'textdomain'));

$section = $tab->add_section('MailChimp');

$section->add_option('text', [
    'name' => 'mailchimp_api_key',
    'label' => __('API Key', 'textdomain')
]);

$settings->make();

Creating the settings instance

$settings = new WPSettings(__('My Plugin Settings'));

By default, the page slug is created by sanitizing the title. You may pass a specific slug as the second parameter of the constructor.

Other methods for this class:

$settings->set_capability('manage_options');
$settings->set_option_name('my_plugin_options');
$settings->set_menu_icon('dashicons-admin-generic');
$settings->set_menu_position(5);
$settings->set_menu_parent_slug('options-general.php');

Tabs

Tabs are only displayed when there is more then one.

$settings->add_tab(__( 'General', 'textdomain'));

Sections

You can call the add_section method from an instance of Tab. You can also call it from the WPSettings instance. It will then be added to the last created Tab.

$tab->add_section('Section 1');

If you want sections to be displayed as submenu-items, you can do:

$tab->add_section('Section 1', ['as_link' => true]);

Note that this only has an effect when you have more then one as_link section.

Options

To add an option, you either call the add_option method from an instance of Section. You may also call add_option from the WPSettings instance. The option will then be added to the last created section.

Text

$section->add_option('text', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain')
]);

Textarea

$section->add_option('textarea', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain')
]);

Checkbox

$section->add_option('checkbox', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain')
]);

Select

$section->add_option('select', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __( 'Option 1', 'textdomain' ),
    'options' => [
        'value_1' => 'Label 1',
        'value_2' => 'Label 2'
    ]
]);

Select Multiple

$section->add_option('select-multiple', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain'),
    'options' => [
        'value_1' => 'Label 1',
        'value_2' => 'Label 2'
    ]
] );

WP Editor

$section->add_option('wp-editor', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain')
] );

Code Editor

$section->add_option('code-editor', [
    'name' => 'option_1',
    'label' => __('Option 1', 'textdomain')
] );

Color

Will be implemented later.

Media

Validation

You are able to validate an option. You may pass a callback and a feedback message. You can pass multiple validation rules.

$section->add_option('text', [
    'name' => 'mailchimp_api_key',
    'label' => __('API Key', 'textdomain'),
    'validate' => [
        [
            'feedback' => __('Your API key is too short.', 'textdomain'),
            'callback' => function($value) {
                return strlen($value) > 35;
            }
        ]
    ]
]);

Sanitization

You may pass a sanitization callback.

$section->add_option('text', [
    'name' => 'mailchimp_api_key',
    'label' => __('API Key', 'textdomain'),
    'santitize' => function($value) {
        return sanitize_key($value);
    }
]);

Adding a custom option type

To add an custom option type, you can use the wp_settings_option_type_map filter.

add_filter('wp_settings_option_type_map', function($options){
    $options['custom'] = YourCustomOption::class;
    return $options;
});

You will need to create a class for your custom option type.

use Jeffreyvr\WPSettings\Options\OptionAbstract;

class YourCustomOption extends OptionAbstract
{
    public $view = 'custom-option';

    public function render()
    {
        echo 'Your custom option HTML';
    }
}

Once registered, you can then use your option type like so:

$settings->add_option('custom-option', [
    'name' => 'your_option_name',
    'label' => __('Your label')
]);
