## Description

EasyInputs provides an error-free universal means of generating HTML form inputs.
EasyInputs is a developers-only plugin that provides a helper for generating form
inputs. It provides objects that represent both the Form and the Input, standarizing
how your HTML form elements are created, speeding development of plugins and themes.

## Installation

 1. Upload the easy-inputs directory to your site\’s /wp-content/plugins directory
 2. Include the easy-inputs.php file into your project with the below code:
     ` require_once
    plugin_dir_path(**FILE**) . \’../easy-inputs/easy-inputs.php\’; // You could either
    declare your object a global or include it into your // plugin/theme\’s classes
    as necessary. Here, we declare a global: global $ei;

// Instantiate EasyInputs, providing the two required settings:
 $ei = new EasyInputs([\’
name\’ => \’easy-inputs-example\’, \’type\’ => \’setting\’ ]); `

Please see the example plugin contained in the easy-inputs directory for further
example code. Detailed notes can be found on the [Github page for this plugin](https://holisticnetworking.github.io/easy-inputs/)

  I don\’t see any way to activate this plugin. Why is that?

This is not a \”plugin\” in the traditional sense. It is for developers who want
a toolbox with which to develop forms and inputs for WordPress administrative uses.
THIS IS NOT FOR NOVICE OR NON-DEVELOPER USE!

  Is this plugin like Gravity Forms =?

NO! This plugin is designed for developers to speed the development of new WordPress
projects and while it can do front-end forms, it is not a substitute for other plugins
better designed for end users. DO NOT USE THIS PLUGIN UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND PHP!
