Post Series Manager

FAQ

Installation Instructions

1. Upload the post-series-manager folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Start adding series tags to your posts like you would a regular tag

I don’t want it to show up before/after/somewhere else, what do I do?

The plugin is set up in such a way that the content filters that are put in place can be removed fairly simply. Add one, or both, of the following to your functions.php:

// Remove the shortcode that's automatically added before the content
remove_filter( 'the_content', array( $post_series_manager, 'post_series_before' ) );
// Remove the shortcode that's automatically added after the content
remove_filter( 'the_content', array( $post_series_manager, 'post_series_after' ) );

How do I use the shortcodes?

The shortcodes are simple and have no additional parameters to use. The shortcodes that are available are:

• [post_series_block] – this is normally added before the content
• [post_series_nav] – this is normally added after the content

Can I filter stuff?

A number of filters have been included, and more are to follow.

The filters that are included (subject to change):

// Filters "This post of part of the series: " text
post-series-manager-series-text

// Filters the " (Current)" text
post-series-manager-current-text

// Filters the "Continue reading this series:" text
post-series-manager-next-text

// Filters the "Other posts in this series:" text
post-series-list-intro-text

// Filters the start "<ol>" tag
post-series-list-opening-tags

// Filters the ending "</ol>" tag
post-series-list-ending-tags

Be very aware that if you change the opening ol to ul, you will also want to change the ending ol to match.
