With this plugin you can create a link to post-new.php (the place to create a new page) that includes the desired parent_id of the new page. This allows you to create links in the front end of the website like "Add a new page to this section" or "Create a new sub-page". This is extremely useful when developing custom themes to add useful backend links on the front end of the site for users who have editing access. For using wordpress as a CMS, you really want to let the user avoid going through the clunky manage pages interface...



Features




This should be a feature of wordpress

I can't believe this isn't built into wordpress

This has to rely on javascript because there's no suitable hook to do it another way

Did I mention this should be built into wordpress?



Feedback



Doubt you'll have any, but if you do, you can go to my website (http://theoephraim.com)
I was thinking about making some functions to actually spit out the links, but since were talking about developing custom themes, you may as well just hardcode it.


            [installation] => 
Very straightforward. Download, copy into plugins folder, activate.
In your theme, create a link like this: Add a page to this section
