Hey Guys,

Sorry for any frustration I caused with the API connection bug! During the name changes made in v1.1 I inadvertently made a very small alteration to the register_settings arguments. I was not aware of the bug because I had already made an API connection previous to the update. It’s been fixed and you will not have trouble connecting to the API with a proper username and api-key now.

Hey Guys,

take a look at version 1.1.6 it has the ability to hide the docs and settings and import the options from within the theme. I plan on expanding on this, but it works now. Also, you’re making it harder on yourself by turning it into a framework where it can’t be updated via the WP directory. Then it’s on you to keep it working.

I understand why you’re wanting to do this, it’s just making it harder on you to keep it working and updated for your clients. If you really wanted to help, submit your upgraded code to me so it can be included in the plugin and make it better for everyone.

Cheers!

you guys are lucky your download works. I downloaded it 7 times already and still no file in the zip Whats up with wordpress?!

And you did a hard refresh in your browser? Should be available by now to everyone. WordPress uses SVN not GIT which is probably not the issue, but I’m gonna complain anyhow lol.

Also, I would suggest not editing any of the plugins code and if you want to extend it by grabbing an array of the saved data and adding in custom functionality to your theme do so in your functions.php

@valendesigns: Hi valendesigns you rock, Its awesome. Its working fine if is activate it as a plugin. However if i directly include this plugin in my theme its giving error something like this: Failed to open stream: Invalid argument in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-content\themes\default\lib\admin\option-tree\classes\class.admin.php on line 372

hahahha… it took exactly 1 hour for this thread to become a plugin support forum.

@MFaisal If you actually look at line #372, you’ll see that it’s a file path. You probably need to update all the file paths if you’re trying to integrate it into your theme.

MFaisal: Do you know how much work it would take to make it a module of you theme? This in not an easy task and definitely not recommended. How would you get updates? A plugin is the best possible way to deliver updates to everyone.

What do you mean directly in your theme? It’s a plugin. You don’t include it anywhere except as a plugin.

Theme -> Option
Forest  -> Tree

I’m surprised your didn’t mention Envato in the plugin and called it “Optiontree” instead. Good work though.

It’s a plugin for everyone, not just Envato marketplace users. However, it fits in with the ThemeForest branding being it’s a tree with options wink wink.

If you’re having issues downloading the plugin on the WordPress Directory it’s not my fault lol. For whatever reason WP is serving up an empty ZIP folder. Do a browser hard refresh a few times and it should show up eventually.

If you guys download and use the plugin please leave any feature requests and comments in the WordPress forum so I can respond and keep track of them easier. Here is the link to add a forum post for the OptionTree plugin.
