Best Practices – WordPress Plugin Making Part 2

Hello to all, welcome to therichpost.com. In this post, I will continue with, Best Practices – WordPress Plugin Making Part 2.

Here is the first part : Best Practices WordPress Plugin Making

In this plugin making code, I am creating page in wordpress admin pages section during plugin activation and I think, this is awesome.

In this post, I am also telling wordpress function for creating page in wordpress admin pages section.

Here is the plugin files structure:

Here is the working and tested code and you need to add into plugin files:

1. Here is the code for wc-rent-products.php file, you need to add:

<?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: Test Plugin
 * Plugin URI: 
 * Description: 
 *
 */

define( 'RENTAL_PLUGIN_DIR' , plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ));
if(!class_exists('RentProduct')){
  require_once( RENTAL_PLUGIN_DIR. 'class.rental.php' );
}

 //Function For Creating New Page With Content
 function add_my_custom_page() {
        $PageGuid = site_url() . "/my-page-req1";
        $my_post  = array( 'post_title'     => 'My page Reql',
                           'post_type'      => 'page',
                           'post_name'      => 'my-page',
                           'post_content'   => 'This is my page reql.',
                           'post_status'    => 'publish',
                           'comment_status' => 'closed',
                           'ping_status'    => 'closed',
                           'post_author'    => 1,
                           'menu_order'     => 0,
                           'guid'           => $PageGuid );
        $page_exists = get_page_by_title( $my_post['post_title'], OBJECT );
    if( count($page_exists) == 0 ) {
    		 $PageID = wp_insert_post( $my_post, FALSE ); // Get Post ID - FALSE to return 0 
    	}
        }
        register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'add_my_custom_page'); 
?>

2. Here is the code for class.rental.php file:

You can add, more code in it, I am just add this file for WordPress plugin standard(You can remove this file also):

<?php

/*
Plugin classes
*/

class RentProduct{

  public static function init() {
        //Add Your More Code
    }
   
}
add_action( 'init', array( 'RentProduct', 'init' ));
?>
