Code-Presenter
Introduction:
Code-Presenter is a WordPress plugin designed for showing code on an extra page, called "code browser". Because I don't really like the normal way of including tons of lines of code in x(a)ml, C# or in whatever language I would post the code in my articles, I created a plugin that takes this code out of an article, saves it in an own database table and replaces the code with a normal xhtml link. This link opens a new page were you can see the corresponding code and other code snippets, posted in the same article.
The plugin is under further development. I will change, complete and add many features (with the necessary amount of time).
Feel free to visit my blog/this page continuously to be informed about the further development.
Features:
- Add the code as normal in the article (only surrounded by the
tags), - Separated storage of the code and the article text,
- The code isn't included in the article (only a link),
- Faster loading of an article with many lines of code,
- Built-in syntax highlighting with GeSHi (supports many languages and can be easily extend),
- Easy access to the entire code of an article trough the code browser,
- The possibility to download the code through the code browser.
Resources:
Demo: You can see examples in most of my articles. One good example may be here.
GeSHi: The homepage and the documentation.
History:
When I first start blogging with WordPress (by the way a wonderful piece of software) I was searching for a plugin to show my code examples appropriate to my visitors. Because I'm writing technical articles I have many code snippets with partly many lines of code. It's not a good idea to show them directly in the articles, because they can blow up the page layout heavily and affect the readability of the normal text.
Installation:
Coming soon when the plugin is formal released.
