Software

Installation

1. Unzip the folder to a temporary location on your local hard drive.
2. FTP the files from their local folders to the same locations in your EE install’s /system/user/addons/ folder on the server.
3. Navigate to Add-ons in your EE control panel and install the add-on. That’s it!

Template Tags

The plugin allows you to implement pirate speak within entries or templates.

{exp:hop_privateer when="" who=""}{/exp:hop_privateer}

when=”always|never”: This overrides the default settings. who=”everyone|any_loggedin_user|super_admins”: This overrides the default settings.

Text Format

Hop PrivatEEr will appear as one of the text format options. The formatting will still respect the when and who settings in the settings page.

Extension

If you set the Entire Site to be on, the Hop PrivatEEr extension will modify every page of the public part of the website. You can change the settings of the extension to be active Always, Never, or On Pirate Day. Your site will return to normal when the extension is disabled.

Hop PrivatEEr tries to avoid messing with HTML, but we recommend testing before you turn it loose on your whole site..

You got the makings of greatness in you, but you got to take the helm and chart your own course!
