Code Editor

The Code Editor controller allows users to write a code based on a defined programming language.

Demonstration

 
Handy::control( 'code-editor', [
    'id'          => 'code_editor_id',
    'section'     => 'layout_section',
    'label'       => esc_html__( 'Code Editor Control', 'textdomain' ),
    'description' => esc_html__( 'Description Here', 'textdomain' ),
    'priority'    => 1
]);

TIP

Here's an example using the default parameter.

 
Handy::control( 'code-editor', [
    'id'          => 'code_editor_id',
    'section'     => 'layout_section',
    'default'     => 'Code…',
    'label'       => esc_html__( 'Code Editor Control', 'textdomain' ),
    'description' => esc_html__( 'Description Here', 'textdomain' ),
    'priority'    => 1
]);

TIP

Here's an example using the language parameter. These are the list of allowed programming languages: html, xml, javascript, jsx, json, css, sass, scss, php, http, markdown and yaml.

 
Handy::control( 'code-editor', [
    'id'          => 'code_editor_id',
    'section'     => 'layout_section',
    'default'     => 'Code…',
    'label'       => esc_html__( 'Code Editor Control', 'textdomain' ),
    'description' => esc_html__( 'Description Here', 'textdomain' ),
    'priority'    => 1,
    'language'    => 'html'
]);
