Add From Server vs Preserve Code Formatting

This plugin offers limited support. Please do not expect new features or too many bugfixes. Features may be removed at any time. Add From Server is designed to help ease the pain of bad web hosts, allowing you to upload files via FTP or SSH and later import them into WordPress. This plugin is NOT designed to.. * Be used as a replacement for the file uploader * Be used for migration of websites * Re-import your files after moving webhosting * Batch import media This plugins IS designed to.. * Import files which are larger than your hosting allows to be uploaded. * Import files which are too large for your internet connections upload speed. WordPress does a better job of file uploads than this plugin, so please consider your needs before you use it. You may also want to look at using WP-CLI for media import purposes: https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/media/import/

This plugin preserves formatting of code for display by preventing its modification by WordPress and other plugins while also retaining whitespace. NOTE: This plugin does NOT handle posts containing blocks. For such posts, use the built-in code or preformatted blocks to format your code for display. However, this plugin would still be needed if you have text-based posts from before using the blocks-based editor. NOTE: Use of the visual text editor will pose problems as it can mangle your intent in terms of code tags. I strongly suggest you not use the visual editor in conjunction with this plugin as I have taken no effort to make the two compatible. Notes: Basically, you can just paste code into code, pre, and/or other tags you additionally specify and this plugin will: Prevent WordPress from HTML-encoding text (i.e. single- and double-quotes will not become curly; “–” and “—” will not become en dash and em dash, respectively; “…” will not become a horizontal ellipsis, etc) Prevent most other plugins from modifying preserved code Prevent shortcodes from being processed Optionally preserve whitespace (in a variety of methods) Optionally preserve code added in comments Keep these things in mind: ALL embedded HTML tags and HTML entities will be rendered as text to browsers, appearing exactly as you wrote them (including any br tags). By default this plugin filters ‘the_content’ (post content), ‘the_excerpt’ (post excerpt), and ‘get_comment_text (comment content)’. Example: A post containing this within code tags: $wpdb->query(" INSERT INTO $tablepostmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) VALUES ('$post_id','link','$extended') "); Would, with this plugin enabled, look in a browser pretty much how it does above, instead of like: $wpdb->query(— INSERT INTO $tablepostmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) VALUES ('$post_id','link','$extended') ―); Links: Plugin Homepage | Plugin Directory Page | GitHub | Author Homepage
