Hello World Plugin for WordPress

By w̶i̶e̶l̶d̶l̶i̶n̶u̶x̶.̶c̶o̶m̶ author Morgan Jassen

I authored a Hello World plugin for WordPress. I wanted to have something simple, especially to build off of for subsequent WordPress Plugin how-tos.

Here it is!:

--------------------
https://github.com/mjassen/mzz-helloworld
--------------------
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: mzz-helloworld
Description: A hello world plugin for WordPress
License: GPLv2
*/

// echoes the text
function mzz_helloworld() {
	echo "Hello, Mzz World!";
}

// execute when the admin_notices action is called, thus the text shows at top of WP Admin Dashboard area
add_action( 'admin_notices', 'mzz_helloworld' );

?>
--------------------
