Vipers Plugins Used

This plugin is great! It lets you list all the plugins you use, and edit the descriptions displayed. The problem is that it is a little difficult to install. But I’ll break it down for you.
This plugin is discontinued and I have yet to see another plugin that allows you to customize the description. The only difficulty that you should have with this plugin is the installation.
You can download the plugin from WordPress or search for it in your WordPress Dashboard under Plugins – Add New. Search ‘Vipers Plugins Used.’
You can see my plugin page here.

First thing you need to do is go into your theme’s directory. You can get there in you cPanel go to your wordpress file > Wp-content > Themes.
Make a new file called vipersplugins.php (You can actually choose whatever name you want).

Paste this at the top of your new page.

<?php
/*
Template Name: Plugins Used
*/
$viperspluginsused = new viperspluginsused();
?>


Copy and past your page.php or index.php in the document.
Now you have a couple of options on how to display the plugins.
Table:
<?php $viperspluginsused->output_table(); ?>
To use CSS with the table it’s css call is:
#pluginstable

Foe example:
#pluginstable td {
border: 1px solid black;
padding: 3px;
}

And if you want to take out the border of the table I can tell you what I did(I don’t understand the readme.txt’s explanation fully). I went and edited the plugin, which you can do in your WordPress Dashboard by going to Plugins, finding the plugin you want and clicking Edit. But be very careful you can easily mess plugins up and then have to re-install them.
About 2400 lines down into the php document you will see this:
$tabledetails = ‘width=”100%” border=”1″ cellpadding=”3″ cellspacing=”3″‘;

You can tell the border to be 0 there.

This is the code for an unordered list instead. You would place it in
Unordered list:
<?php $viperspluginsused->output_list(); ?>

Place this right up under where your content begins for the page template which might look something like this:
<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page »</p>'); ?>

Now go into your WordPress Dashboard and make a new page. Over in the right sidebar there is a box called page attributes. You want to locate where it says Template and then click the drop down and find the Plugins Used template.

Now your plugin page is ready!
