Settings Page for a WordPress Plugin
£30-250 GBP
Paid on delivery
We have a WordPress plugin that takes news articles from an API and adds them as posts within WordPress.
The task is to create a Settings Page, as detailed below, for a WordPress Plugin. The Plugin doesn't have to do anything except "control" the setting page i.e. save, load and update the fields on the page. I believe the easiest way to do this would be in pure HTML and javascript (jQuery if you so wish) - but are happy for other suggestions.
At present all articles are placed in a single category. However, the articles are grouped into news feeds e.g. "Local News", "National News", "Funny", etc, etc. What I'd like is a setting page that:-
⦁ Allows a user to enter an API Key
⦁ The API Key is checked and a list of group names returned
⦁ The user can enable and assign WordPress categories to each feed
⦁ Save the all the settings in a single WordPress option
There 2 user elements:-
⦁ Text field for an API Key
⦁ WordPress "styled" table where each row has a Checkbox, Feed Name, and a standard WordPress category selection dropdown. Each row should also have a hidden field for the row's ID.
Some functionality points:-
⦁ You'll need to create a function to do an async call to our API so that the API Key check can be done - this can be done by javascript in the browser. For now just emulate the actual async API call by say sleeping for 1 second and then returning some JSON data {name:"name of org", feeds:[{id:123,name:"A feedname"},{id:321,name:"another feed name"},…]}
⦁ Account for any number of Feeds and don't worry about pagination - just show them all.
⦁ Do not worry about reusing categories, it's OK.
⦁ There has to be a way of changing and/or removing the API Key. If this happens then the user has to confirm. Something like "The API Key has changed. This action will remove all of the present Feeds' posts from WordPress. Do you want to continue?"
⦁ I need to know what's changed when they press the Save Changes. Ideally somewhere in your code you'd write a function that is called with on saving. For now this function should just save the new settings. I'll add the code to perform the actual changes later.
⦁ Feel free to move things around so they look better. E.g. Save Changes should probably be at the bottom. Also, Enabled may be better on the far left next to the Feed Name.
⦁ If the user updates the category but forgets to enable the "row" then it should throw up a warning box. Although I'm open to other ways, such as having a "DISABLED" entry in the category dropdown. And/Or having the rows be coloured red OR green depending on if they're enabled or not.
⦁ The outcome is to save all the values as a single settings object in the options table.
