Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Create plain text files through WordPress using a custom post type.

This came about because I needed a way to edit a JavaScript file on a blog that’s

part of a multi site network setup, and I didn’t want to do a child theme for

just that one blog and keep up with updating the JS through FTP. This way I can

edit it directly inside of WordPress as I need to without firing up Notepad++ or

FileZilla.

If you select either CSS or JavaScript as the file type you’ll have the option

for the plugin to automatically link to the file within your page header, assuming

your theme supports the wp_head callback. The links are created using either

wp_register_script / wp_enqueue_script or wp_enqueue_style / wp_enqueue_style.

And a thank you goes out to Ted Devito for his

Tabby jQuery plugin that allows

the capture of tabs inside the edit text area.
