## Descripción

With EP Admin Messages you can show messages in the admin area of WordPress. Each
message can be shown at multiple places and can be limited to only be shown to specific
user groups using capabilities.

This plugin requires that you add a config file to your themes folder. It’s mostly
useful for theme developers that want tho show messages in the admin to the users
of their site.

#### Plugin features

 * Show messages in WordPress Admin
 * Show messages in different places
 * Show different messages for different users
 * Format messages using HTML
 * Stores settings in a JSON-file. No config screen!
 * Suitable for website and theme developers that want to push message changes automatically.

#### Messages are shown where you want them to be shown

You have full control over where your messages will be shown.
 Each message can 
be placed in one or several of the following places:

 * dashboard
 * overview screen for posts, pages, and custom post types
 * edit screen for posts, pages and custom post types
 * posts with a specific slug or a slug based on a wildcard
 * user overview screen and on user profiles
 * plugin install/update page

#### Messages are only shown to the users that you choose

Each message can be limited to be shown only to users with a specific [capability](https://codex.wordpress.org/Glossary#Capabilities)
or [role](https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Roles).

You can for example show one message to your editors, i.e. users with the capability“
edit_posts”, and another message to your admins, i.e. users with the capability “
manage_options”.

#### Messages can be selectd to be shown only on the posts you choose

Messages can be limited to only be shown on posts that match a specific slug, or
a slug that matches a wildcard.

This way it’s easy to for example show page specific information, letting a user
know what a page is for, what they should put in in, and so on.

#### JSON-based config file

All settings are configured with a config file ([view example config](https://github.com/EarthPeople/ep-admin-messages/blob/master/ep-config-example.json))
that uses JSON and that you put in the themes directory.

This means that there are no settings for the user to change. This also means that
you can add messages using your regular deploy method. Just upload an updated config
file and you’re done. No database syncing needed; hooray!

#### Usage scenarios

To give you an idea what this plugin may be used for, I’ll give you a list of what
I do with it.

EP Simple Messages can be used to…

 * … write documentation for users and developers.
 * … show users what [Mustache tags](http://mustache.github.io/) are available for
   a specific post. You know, things like `{{user.firstname}}` or `{{campaign.name}}`.
 * … show a message on the dashboard with support info, like who made the site and
   who they should contact for support questions.
 * … let the user know what shortcodes that are available for all posts.

#### Open source

The [source code for EP Admin Messages](https://github.com/EarthPeople/ep-admin-messages)
is available at GitHub.

## Capturas de pantalla

 * Three messages being shown on the edit post screen. Notice that you can add HTML
   to your messages and add headlines, links, images, and so on.
 * [[
 * Four messages being shown on the dashboard.

## Instalación

 1. Upload the plugin folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Add a file called `.ep-config.json` to your theme directory. This file contains
    your config in JSON-format.
 4. Optional: update your `.htaccess` to disable access to the config file used by 
    this plugin (if you don’t do this everyone with access to your site may be able
    to read your messages):
 5. Forbid access to all files beginning with a dot (.).
 6. RedirectMatch 403 /..*$
 7. Or forbid access to only .ep-config.json
 8. RedirectMatch 403 /.ep-config.json$
