## Descrición

A functionality plugin is a way to separate what you might normally place in a theme’s`
functions.php` file, and put it in a plugin instead. It works the same way as a 
theme `functions.php` file, but is separate from the theme and so not affected by
theme upgrades, or tied to the theme so you loose all of your functions if you choose
to switch themes.

This plugin automates the process of creating a functionality plugin. Simply install
and activate this plugin, and your very own functionality plugin will be created
for you. You can then edit your functionality plugin and add snippets to it using
the quick link in the admin menu.

See [this WP Daily post](http://wpdaily.co/functionality-plugin/) for more information
on functionality plugins.

This plugin’s code is [available on GitHub](https://github.com/sheabunge/functionality).
Please feel free to fork the repository and send a pull request. If you find a bug
in the plugin, open an issue.

## Capturas

 * [[
 * Editing the functionality plugin in the WordPress plugin editor

## Instalación

 1. Upload the `functionality` directory to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Visit the ‘Plugins > Edit Functions’ menu in WordPress and enter filesystem credentials
    if necessary
 4. A functionality plugin will be created for you in `wp-content/plugins/functions/
    functions.php`
 5. Use the built-in WordPress file editor to edit your functionality plugin

#### Enable Styles Feature

 1. To enable the optional CSS styles feature, uncomment that line in the functions
    file, save the changes, and refresh the page
 2. Visit the new ‘Plugins > Edit Styles’ admin menu and enter filesystem credentials
    if necessary
 3. A stylesheet file will be created for you in `wp-content/plugins/functions/style.
    css`. This file will be automatically loaded on the front-end of your site.
 4. Use the built-in WordPress file editor to edit your stylesheet plugin

This plugin may be removed at any time, and your functionality plugin will remain
working and intact. You will, however, loose the quick edit links in the admin menu,
and automatic styles loading if that feature is enabled.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### My functionality plugin isn’t working!

First of all, backup all of the code in your functionality plugin. Then deactivate
and delete your functionality (it will have the same name as your site). To recreate
the functionality plugin, visit the ‘Edit Functions’ link in the WordPress admin
menu.

### Can I get rid of this plugin once my functionality plugin has been created?

Sure! Once this plugin has been activated and the functionality plugin created, 
all it does is create a link in the WordPress admin menu for easily editing the 
functionality plugin, and include your CSS code on the front-end of your site. If
you don’t want this, feel free to delete this plugin.

### When would I use this plugin over the Code Snippets plugin?

This plugin is more suited to people who only have a few snippets and prefer editing
a file to using a graphical interface. If you have more snippets, and like to be
organized, you may feel more at home using the [Code Snippets](https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets)
plugin, which I also created.

### Isn’t this just like the Pluginception plugin?

Yes, in that they are both a plugin for creating plugins. However, this plugin is
a bit more easier to use and specific than Pluginception.

I was exactly looking for that, but I think the plugin is outdated.

Perfect plugin, I discover it thanks to wootheme documentation, it will be very 
useful the day I need to update my theme. Just a little thing: I’m using WP Editor
to improve the quality of my plugin & theme editor, however when i’m editing the
new functions.php, the editor isn’t working, I have the original editor from wordpress.
Do you know why/how can I make it work? Thanks

I suggest this to folks I’m helping all the time who the barrier to write a plugin
from scratch seems too high. A nice way to intro people to plugin coding.
