WordPress Advanced Code Editor

WordPress Advanced Code Editor

Advanced Code Editor:

This Plugin Enables syntax highlighting in the integrated themes and plugins source code editors. Supports PHP, HTML, CSS and JS.

Background:

More then once i find myself away from my computer where i have my beloved code editors and ftp/svn applications where all i have is the WordPress integrated themes and plugin editor and i know that there are plugins "like" this out there but none of which work or have the functionality like search and replace, regex search or autocomplete. So I Wrote this plugin.

What does it do?

This Plugin replaces the built-in theme and plugin editor with marijn's excellent CodeMirror2 JS library so the editor becomes an advanced code editor, and because it uses JavaScript to do that it's all done on the client side(browser) and not on your server which means it takes no server resources.

Main features:

  • Mixed language Syntax highlighting (PHP,HTML,JavaScript and CSS)
  • Line Numbers.
  • Easy to use ToolBar

  • Smart Search (string or regex).
