Hello,
I'm trying to make a plugin in order to enhance author posting bar with some information , and make a test plugin to have such behaviour working for hardcoded string, before going for the real job
Nevertheless, after looking at some tutorials and browsing through the forum I cannot have my Test plugin working fine and don't manage to understand why ...
Please find below the related code, in TestPlugin_show the echo send me well filled variables, but the global variable $TestPlugin doesn't reach the template.
No doubts i'm missing the point here, so if somebody could explain me or redirect me to the appropriate ressource to handle this , it would make one human being happy over here
