Attachments vs Simple Page Ordering

Extensive usage instructions are available on GitHub Attachments allows you to simply append any number of items from your WordPress Media Library to Posts, Pages, and Custom Post Types. Associate Media items with posts The idea behind Attachments is to give developers the ability to directly associate Media items with any post. This is accomplished by adding a meta box to post edit screens as determined by the developer. Once Media items have been associated with a post, you’re able to retrieve those Attachments and include them directly within your template files using any specific markup you wish. Integrate Attachments within your theme with fine grained control Attachments does not automatically integrate itself with your theme. Since the idea behind Attachments is to allow integration of Media within posts using developer-crafted, unique markup, it’s up to you to integrate with your theme. The most basic integration includes editing the appropriate template file and adding your call(s) to Attachments. For example, if you have set up Attachments to be used with your Posts entries, edit single.php to include the following within The Loop: exist() ) : ?> Attachments Total Attachments: total(); ?> get() ) : ?> ID: id(); ?> Type: type(); ?> Subtype: subtype(); ?> URL: url(); ?> Image: image( 'thumbnail' ); ?> Source: src( 'full' ); ?> Size: filesize(); ?> Title Field: field( 'title' ); ?> Caption Field: field( 'caption' ); ?> That snippet will request all of the existing Attachments defined for the current Post within The Loop, and retrieve each itemized property for that Attachment. Using the provided details you’re able to integrate the attached Media items in any way you please. There is a lot more information on Attachments’ GitHub page. Please contribute! Roadmap Please see Attachments on GitHub Usage Extensive usage instructions are available on GitHub

Order your pages, hierarchical custom post types, or custom post types with “page-attributes” with drag and drop right from the built in page list. Drag and drop the page into the desired position. No new admin menus pages, no clunky, bolted on user interfaces. Drag and drop on the page or post-type screen. The plug-in is “capabilities aware” – only users with the ability to edit others’ pages (editors and administrators) will be able to reorder content. Integrated help is included: click the “help” tab at the top right of the screen. Please note that the plug-in is not compatible with Internet Explorer 7 and earlier, due to limitations within those browsers. Contributing We’d love to have you join in on development over on GitHub.
