Description
Github Ribbons is a WordPress Plugin that allows you to add “Fork me on Github” ribbons to your WordPress posts or pages. You can enable the ribbon per post/page level or at global level.
Features
The following are some of the features of the Plugin
- You can choose between image based ribbons or CSS3 based ribbons.
- You can choose whether to show the ribbon on the right side or on the left side.
- You can choose whether the link has to open in a new tab or not.
- You can choose any one of the 6 different colours that are available.
- Configuration can be set either globally or on a post by post basic.
Styling using CSS
If you want to style the ribbon yourself or add additional CSS styles to it (like adding z-index
etc) then add it to the .robbon-holder
CSS class.
Development
The development of the Plugin happens over at github. If you want to contribute to the Plugin, fork the project at github and send me a pull request.
If you are not familiar with either git or Github then refer to this guide to see how fork and send pull request.
