Aren't you irritated by the greeting on the right of the Admin Bar? By default, it greets you with a nauseating \"howdy\".<\/p>\n\n

This is the plugin to sort that issue out. This plugin changes the default greeting to \"Welcome\", a greeting which combines formality with warmth. However, the plugin also provides an options page, so that users can have their own preferred greetings.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin, and others, can be found on the plugins page of Old Castle Web Solutions<\/a> (www.oldcastleweb.com).<\/p>\n\n

Further work on this plugin should enable a general framework for all my plugins, giving them a top level menu page and sidebar entry of their own, regardless of which plugin is installed first.<\/p>\n\n

Arbitrary section<\/h3>\n\n

I have no arbitrary comments to make. What's the weather like where you are?<\/p>\n\n

<?php code(); \/\/ goes in backticks ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n
This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.<\/p>\n\n
e.g.<\/p>\n\n
    \n
  1. Upload plugin-name.php<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory, or use the special Wordpress 'upload a plugin' system.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n
    What future development will there be on this plugin?<\/dt>\n
    I will do some further work, even though it is meant to be asimple plugin. That is because i have used it to learn how to get plugins to work. My main goal next is to find a way of making a sort-of 'framework' plugin, so that I can use a general top-leveol options page for all my plugins. I need to find out how to get a second plugin to notice whether a previous plugin had been installed and activated, so that the top-level menu already exists. If you know how to do this, please contact me: info@oldcastleweb.com.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
    1.6<\/h4>\n\n
    Tested up to WP 4.6<\/p>\n\n
    1.5<\/h4>\n\n
    Tested on Github<\/p>\n\n
    1.2<\/h4>\n\n
    The plugin now has a proper Settings link, which it didn't have before.<\/p>\n\n
    1.1<\/h4>\n\n
    There had previously been an advert on the Options Page. i removed this, on the advice of Wordpress.org<\/p>\n\n
    1.0<\/h4>\n\n
      \n
    • I added a few pieces of comment, and tidied up some rubbish, to make the plugin ready for submission to wordpress.org.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
      0.6<\/h4>\n\n
        \n
      • The plugin now has an options menu, under the \"settings\" main menu. This enables users to define their own greeting.<\/li>\n
      • The next stage will see a framework for all my plugins, allowing them all to use a custom top level options page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
        0.5<\/h4>\n\n
          \n
        • The initial plugin merely changes \"howdy\" to \"welcome\"<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"This plugin enables the user to replace the \u2018howdy\u2019 greeting on the admin bar.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/19874","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19874"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/pftaylor61"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19874"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=19874"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=19874"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=19874"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=19874"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/twd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=19874"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
