mainwp_getextensions

Description
The “mainwp_getextensions” filter is used to add your extension to MainWP.

Usage

function plugin_get_extension($array) {
// process here ..
return $array;
}
add_filter( 'mainwp_getextensions', 'plugin_get_extension', 10, 1 );

Where ‘plugin_get_extension’ is the function MainWP should call when the $extensions array is being retrieved. Note that the filter function must return an array of extensions after it is finished processing, or no extensions will be displayed, and other plugins also filtering the $extensions array may generate errors.

plugin_get_extension should be unique function name. It cannot match any other function name already declared.

Examples
Both examples use the following two actions to add the settings page header and footer: mainwp-pageheader-extensions and mainwp-pagefooter-extensions

Add an extension without authentication
The following example adds your extension to MainWP.

add_filter('mainwp_getextensions', 'my_plugin_add_extension');

function my_plugin_add_etension($extensions) {
$extensions[] = array('plugin' => __FILE__, 'callback' => 'my_plugin_extension_settings');
return $extensions;
}

function my_plugin_extension_settings() {
do_action('mainwp-pageheader-extensions', __FILE__);
echo 'Your custom settings page';
do_action('mainwp-pagefooter-extensions', __FILE__);
}

Add an extension with authentication
The following example adds your extension to MainWP.

add_filter( 'mainwp_getextensions', 'my_plugin_add_extension' );

function my_plugin_add_etension( $extensions ) {
$locked = true; //Add some check to see if the authentication is valid
$extensions[] = array( 'plugin' => __FILE__, 'callback' => 'my_plugin_extension_settings', 'apilink' => 'link-to-authentication-form', 'locked' => $locked );
return $extensions;
}

function my_plugin_extension_settings() {
do_action('mainwp-pageheader-extensions', __FILE__);
echo 'Your custom settings page';
do_action('mainwp-pagefooter-extensions', __FILE__);
}

Please not to add the authentication you need to implement an mechanism to fill up the $locked variable in the example above.
