Let’s simulate a classic first recipe from Chapter 1: .
(e.g., my-first-cookbook-plugin.php ). Copy the plugin header and code exactly from the PDF recipe.
: Open your local wp-config.php file and set define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); to display coding errors instantly. Step 2: Source the Official Code Repository
Did this help you get the plugin examples running? Let me know in the comments – and please don’t ask for a PDF link. I don’t have one, and you don’t need it.
Let me save you hours of frustration. This post covers why hunting for a PDF is a bad idea, and then gives you the for the working code examples.
Are you planning to add a for your plugin data?
