scbFramework is a collection of classes that speed up WordPress development.

To get a quick start on using the framework, see the example plugin on WordPress.org.

The framework contains the following classes:

• scbForms - form generator
• scbOptions - option handling
• scbAdminPage - admin page creation
• scbBoxesPage - admin page with meta boxes
• scbWidget - widget creation
• scbCron - wp-cron handling
• scbTable - database table creation
• scbHooks - automatic filter binding
• scbUtil - useful functions
  • html()

There are two "official" ways to load the scbFramework files:

Loading from a plugin

<?php
// Plugin Name: My plugin

require dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/scb/load.php';

# $option = new scbOption( 'my_plugin' );  // Error: scbOption class does not exist

function my_plugin_init() {
  $option = new scbOption( 'my_plugin' );  // OK

  ...
}

scb_init( 'my_plugin_init' );

Loading from a "must-use" plugin

This method is recommended when you plan to use scbFramework on a site that you control. The classes will become available to all plugins and themes.

1. Move the scbFramework folder to wp-content/mu-plugins/scb (create the directories as needed).
2. Copy the scb-load.php file into wp-content/mu-plugins/.
