Thought as composer mu-plugin

[MaximeCulea]

Hi there !

Thx you for this awesome work. I wanted to implement it myself, then I saw your plugin.

One thought, I will require it as composer mu-plugin and not plugin. As it could break routes and then content requesting.

With mu-loader, it's very smooth ;)

Hello Maxime,

I am not aware of mu-plugins.
Can you share some mu-plugins.
I can refer them and understand the changes required to have it as a mu-plugin.

Thanks,
Salil

Hello @salil-elevati,

So I would have load this plugin as Must Use Plugin rather than a traditionnal plugin.

The main reason is that plugin can be deactivated. So if the WordPress is running a web add, etc, the wanted contents available through created routes could not be anymore reachable.
So a simple action could break so much !

To avoid this, loaded as mu-plugin with a mu-loader, this plugin would be always activated, no matters what happens.

What do you think about it ?

Hello @MaximeCulea
I installed mu-loader, and see we do not need any changes to the plugin code to work as Must Use Plugin.

So, do I need to change in the plugin composer.json to install in mu-plugins directory?

Hello @salil-elevati,

I would simply change wordpress-plugin by wordpress-muplugin into https://github.com/elevati/wp-api-multiple-posttype/blob/master/composer.json#L3.
And add the mu-loader trick into the installation notice.

Best,
