## Description

Create plain text files through WordPress using a custom post type.

This came about because I needed a way to edit a JavaScript file on a blog that’s

part of a multi site network setup, and I didn’t want to do a child theme for just
that one blog and keep up with updating the JS through FTP. This way I can edit 
it directly inside of WordPress as I need to without firing up Notepad++ or FileZilla.

If you select either CSS or JavaScript as the file type you’ll have the option
 
for the plugin to automatically link to the file within your page header, assuming
your theme supports the wp_head callback. The links are created using either wp_register_script/`
wp_enqueue_script` or `wp_enqueue_style` / `wp_enqueue_style`.

And a thank you goes out to Ted Devito for his
 [Tabby jQuery plugin](http://teddevito.com/demos/textarea.html)
that allows the capture of tabs inside the edit text area.

## Installation

Pretty much like any other plugin…

Either

 1. Upload the `plain-text-custom-post-type` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

or

 1. Download and activate through WordPress

#### Usage

Once activated, a new page will be available under the Pages tab. Click on Plain

Text Files and you’ll be able to create new plain text posts.

## FAQ

  Why isn’t my file automatically linking?

Make sure that you have selected either CSS or JavaScript as the file type for your

file. Files set as Plain Text cannot be linked in the head of your pages.

  How did you capture the tabs?

Okay, not really a FAQ. But I did want to make sure that Ted Divito got credit
 
for the [Tabby jQuery plugin](http://teddevito.com/demos/textarea.html) that I used.
I’ve tried to capture tabs inside of text areas before and it was much more complicated
that I expected and my solutions never worked as well as they should.

  Help, I need more help!

[My site](http://www.nutt.net/tag/plain-text-cpt/) is probably your best bet. I’m

around the WordPress forums occasionally, but my site would be faster.
