WordPress

I've developed a set of wordpress plugins (and a theme) to help with this site. So far there's the following:

Plugins

Themes

Enabling updates for self-hosted WordPress themes and updates

I recently experimented with changing my themes and plugins to support self-hosted updates. For plugins this was relatively straight-forward once I'd found two articles, one by Misha Rudrastyh, which got me to adjust the contents of the zip files down one level (which allows WordPress to understand that the new zip file being uploaded is a replacement/update for a plugin that is already installed) and gave the basics of the self-hosted update process¹, including hosting a file that describes the update along side the zip file that is the actual update. The second article by Paul Biron showed what the current version of WordPress is expecting in the php code for plugins

However those articles don't talk about themes that much. To be fair the process for themes is very similar². However the expection of the WordPress code is different to that for plugins, so, as a record, here's my code:

function ningxia_check_for_update( $slug ) {
 $info = ningxia_get_remote_update_info( $slug );
 if ( false == $info ) {
  return false;
 }
 if ( version_compare( '@@@VERSION@@@', $info['version'], '>' )
   && version_compare( $info['requires'], get_bloginfo( 'version' ), '>' ) ) {
  $update = array(
    'slug'          => $slug,
    'new_version'   => $info['version'],
    'url'           => $info['homepage'],
    'package'       => $info['download_link'],
    'icons'         => array(),
    'banners'       => array(),
    'banners_rtl'   => array(),
    'tested'        => '',
    'requires_php'  => '',
    'compatability' => new StdClass()
  );
  return $update;
 } else {
  return false;
 }
}

function ningxia_pre_set_site_transient_update_themes( $transient ) {
 // Check for update
 $themeslug = 'Ningxia';
 $update = ningxia_check_for_update( $themeslug );
 if ( $update ) {
  $transient->response[$themeslug] = $update;
 }
 return $transient;
}
add_filter( 'pre_set_site_transient_update_themes', 'ningxia_pre_set_site_transient_update_themes' );

My build process modifies the @@@VERSION@@@ string into the current version number for the build being created (for example, 3.80.1) whereas the $info['version'] comes from the json that been retrieved from the self-hosting site.

Last updated: October 9, 2025 at 13:59 pm

Updated 9^th October 2025 to correctly show all of the code!

Footnotes

Though I did have to adjust the logic slightly - when you detect that the filter call is not for the current plugin you need to return the current value of first parameter and not just return false ↩
Though the articles I've read suggest that there could be differences for multi-site setups - as this site is not a multi-site setup, I've yet to test how well this description works for that kind of setup ↩

Mongoose Traveller V2 Character Creator Plugin Details

Description

This plugin adds a shortcode to add a sandpit for character creation experimentation. This allows for a new character to be created. The characters are saved locally in the browser (only) and can be exported in a format importable into Fantasy Grounds Unity.
[mongooseTravellerV2CharacterCreator /]

The following (minor) rules interpretations, clarifications and modifications have been made by this plugin:

Three of the initial stat rolls are made with a boon (i.e., roll 3D6 and take the best two).
Mishap 2 is always severely injured.
Skill specialisations are chosen at the end of character creation (rather than as you acquire level one in the base skill). This was to avoid overwhelming the player with options. However that does mean where you should be awarded a specialisation in a skill you, initially, get a level in the base skill instead. Also those skills which can be specialised are allowed to go above four until you reach that specialisation step.
In a few places where the official rules allow you to choose a skill in the skill tables these has been replaced by providing an entry for each skill in that table (making it have seven rows and a 1D7 roll).
The 'Any talent' entry in the Psion service skill table has been omitted (making that table have five rows and hence a 1D5 roll).
Connections do not allow the choice of any psionic talent (unless the character is Zhodani).

Caporil theme

Description

I had used the ming theme for quite a while, originally on its own, then with a child theme to fix some minor issues I had with the theme. I then ended up with my own version of that theme in order to allow me to get a better copyright notice. This version, caporil, of that theme is a reworking of both it and my own child theme (created to customise that theme for my own website) to take advantage of more modern CSS techniques (and to allow me to understand wordpress themes better). I haven't registered it with wordpress's theme library, so there is a risk of a name clash in the future.

Converting to WordPress

I've recently redirected my website to a WordPress driven site. While the page generation is longer (the Feeds page is definitely longer to generate), I'm finding the CMS capability to be much better than hand editing my pages. WordPress has a relatively well thought out design and philosophy, so we'll see how it goes. I, of course, have added redirects for all the old pages.

Even more WordPress plugins I've used (but don't currently)

I've audited again the plugins I've used on this site. I've removed the following, but not because they aren't useful (they are), but because I don't need them right at the moment:

Enhanced Media Library: Originally used to improve the functionally of the Media Library, but since outclassed by the Media Library Assistant plugin.
Custom Post Type UI: Used to prototype the custom taxonomy I use to identify and the photos and images to which I'm the sole copyright owner. Doesn't need to be installed since I copied the taxonomy into my child theme.
Updates API Inspector: Used to get a view on what wordpress does to identify and install updates to plugins and themes. Doesn't need to remain installed once the investigation is completed.

TablePressNoCacheCommentExtension Plugin Details

Description

This plugin suppresses the comment that TablePress adds to indicate that it has inserted the table contents from a cache rather than rerendering the table. When using static site generation and a library system to help minimise the changes to the html this comment causes a "spurious" change to the html resulting in an unnecessary change to the file to be indicated. This extension to TablePress simply suppresses that comment.
