Welcome to WP Basis WordPress plugin. WP Basis is a utility plugin that can be used to help WordPress developers develop sites. Primarily it does 3 things:

  • Provide a bank of useful filtered functions that hook into WordPress to amend the output of various things e.g. added counter classes in the loop and widgets
  • A number of template tags are provided for use in theme and plugin development. These are often the sort of functions we find ourselves writing over and over again and therefore are now easily accessible in order to reuse
  • Edits the WordPress dashboard (admin) for none WP Basis users to make it easier to use for clients. This includes removing a number of admin menus as well as restricting admins from updating things.

The development of the plugin has been built with extensibility in mind. Many of the functions are either filterable allowing developers to manipulate the output or they are added using WordPress hooks to allow you to easily turn them on and off or change them completely by adding your own hooked functions.
