Suggestions

  • Great plugin – very useful!

    Some suggestions if you don’t mind (1st 2 copied from your website) and which I think would be great improvements and make it even better:

    1. Multiple files — Putting everything in a single file gets pretty long pretty quickly. If there could be the ability to separate functions out into separate files, that would be great. Or even if it isn’t actually separated into several physical files, it would help to at least have some tabs you could name and put different segments of code into. Then on the backend, all these tabs could eventually just concatenate into one big file like it is now.

    2. Reload at same position — With the sidebar fixed from the changes in number 3, it’d be great to have the page reload at the same position you saved it. When the page reloads at the top every time, having to find where you were down in a long file gets a little tedious. This one would take a little Javascript or something, but would be a great help.

    3. As mentioned elsewhere, Multisite network option as well would be very useful. You’d just need to check the db structure for multisite.

    4. File, or DB storage options, Or maybe caching at least for performance? (Not an expert, just a suggestion). What are the security implications of both options?

    5. Some navigation buttons might be useful. Top, Bottom, Next and Previous Function for example.

    6. Some helper buttons maybe? Create new function, comment/uncomment selected text.

    7. Not sure how easy/possible it is, but autocompletion and/or code quick reference would be very nice.

    8. quick search, search and replace.

    9. Export/Backup code.

    10. Function prefix/namespace default and quick paste option which creates new function with prefix set at bottom and pastes buffer in.

    11. Easier disable/enable option for WSOD.

    12. Include other files/scripts option?

    13. Option to make it a “Must Use” plugin so it’s out of the way and can’t easily be disabled.

    14. Some options for who can see/edit the code/plugin?

    Hope that helps and thanks for a great plugin.

    PS what happens to the code if the plugin gets removed? Some kind of automated save/backup might be handy.

    Thank you!

    It’s a great list of suggestions, thank you very much for this! Some points I especially liked. In general, I’d be happy to implement everything in this list, but I don’t have enough time for this, so I try to do as much as I can ??

    During removal of this plugin it automatically removes all saved code (This is done on a case the WSOD). I like the idea of making a button to save and backup code, so I’ll try to implement this.

    Item No. 3:
    I tried to implement the multisite support in this plugin but I can’t understand how it work ?? I never did it before.

    No. 1:
    You are absolutely right, but I decided to make another plugin for this. It is now in the process of writing (https://github.com/ArthurGareginyan/my-custom-functions-pro) . It named the same but with additional word “PRO”. It will be also completely free.

    I think that while some people want to have complicated plugin with multiple settings (like PRO version), but another people need a simple plugin like this.

    Hello Arthur,

    this is a wonderful plugin and I too would like to see some of the suggestions of @ixwood.

    I have developed a few plugins which are multisite enabled. I would be happy to contribute to make some of these suggestions a reality.

    Hello @aurovrata,

    Oh, that’s great! Here is a link to the GitHub repository:

    Thanks in advance for your contribution!

    Sure, I will take a look. I am a little busy right now so probably won’t be able to take a look till September
