Plugin Detection for WordPress Themes (Utilities)

You want to provide a fast installation process for your WordPress Theme? Good, WP has
a straight forward installation… if you don’t use any Plugins in your Theme. Otherwise:

• You have to write documentation: a list of the plugins, how-to install
• You leave the work to your customer:
  • Read documentation
  • Find Plugin
  • Install Plugin
  • Activate Plugin
• Customers will contact you, and you have to answer ‘Plugins?’ for the 100th time

Wouldn’t it be nice to have such a thing like Bundler for WordPress?
Very easy dependencies management for the developer. One click installation for the user.

This is where Plugin Detection comes in.

Features

• Simple 3 step installation:
  1. Copy the Plugin to your Theme’s folder
  2. Include the Plugin in your Theme’s functions.php file
  3. Create a plugins.yml file
• If plugins.yml is missing you’ll see a example based on your installed & active WordPress Plugins
• plugins.yml is a YAML formatted file to manage Plugins
• Only logged in admins will see the Plugin Detection
• Works in Theme preview and outside the admin panel
• Plugin Name Helper for the admin panel when searching Plugins for easy copy & paste
• Find missing and inactive Plugins
• Install/Activate each Plugin by its own
• Install and Activate every Plugin – ONE CLICK INSTALLATION
