Toolbox and Showroom Supercharger

This plugin was tailored for the Impact Hub Bergen site. And it might be useful for other sites that are looking to implement similar functionality.

Please note: This plugin is by no means officially supported by the Impact Hub company.

What the plugin does:

1. Adds the custom posts “Entrepreneur toolbox” and “Member showroom”.
2. Make Entrepreneur toolbox be published as private by default.
3. Trim away the word “Private:” from private posts.
4. Enable custom shortcode for listing out custom posts. It includes pagination and support for displaying featured image.
5. Adds a custom hubmember role.
6. Add logged-in user role to the body class declaration. So that one might add styles to customize the admin view based on the logged in user’s role.

Shortcode example usage:

• [list-posts limit=3 type="impcthub-resource"] Lists out Entrepreneur resource posts with max three posts on each page with “previous” and “next” links for pagination.
• [list-posts limit=-1 type="impcthub-member"] Lists out all Member showcase posts without pagination.

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Find this plugin through the plugin browser accessible through plugins -> add new. And then select install plugin.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Aaand you should be good to go. 🙂
