It\u2019s nice to pre-populate terms, content or have the ability to only OCCASIONALLY run actions.<\/p>\n\n

In the past, I\u2019ve had to manually use special $_GET variables.<\/p>\n\n

Not any more! This plugin provides a simple interface for admins\/super admins to fire a special hook. You can easily hook onto that action in order to perform your infrequent or expensive logic.<\/p>\n\n

This could be anything such as pre-filling content, auto-creating terms, updating the database in a certain manner, talking to or updating an API, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n

  1. Upload the plugin files to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/plugin-name<\/code> directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Define functions that are hooked to: AaronHolbrook\\Seeder\\doing_seed<\/code> that you would like to only run when you press the magic 'Do Seeding' button<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

      I installed the plugin but nothing happens<\/dt>\n

      That's because this function is more of a power user plugin. This plugin gives developers a way to infrequently perform actions. If you are unfamiliar with the WordPress action hook system, this plugin is probably not for you.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
