When/where would want to attach other classes to the base class in a WordPress plugin?

Store a value in global scope after init hook is fired
So after consulting on Facebook Advanced WordPress group, the advice was to create an object with setters and getters instead of using the declaring and getting variables in the global scope as shown in the code below: class MyPlugin { public $current_post_types; public function __construct() { add_filter(‘init’, array($this, ‘get_variables’)); } public function get_variables() { $this->current_post_types … Read more
Set user role, if an specific role created an user

Preset Widgets ONLY after site is initially created
Why not output your Theme’s custom Widgets using the_widget(), inside of a if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( ‘sidebar-name’ ) ) conditional? e.g. <?php if ( !dynamic_sidebar( ‘sidebar-right’ ) ) { $widgetsidebarrightargs = array( ‘before_widget’ => ‘<div class=”widget”>’, ‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’, ‘before_title’ => ‘<div class=”title widgettitle”>’, ‘after_title’ => ‘</div>’ ); the_widget(‘WP_Widget_Calendar’ , ‘title=” , $widgetsidebarrightargs ); the_widget( … Read more
Developing plugin, where to place action hooks etc?
