```php
<?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: User Login Status
 * Description: Monitor user login status and perform bulk logouts.
 * Version: 1.0
 * Author: Robert DeVore
 */

// Prevent direct access
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
    exit;
}

// Enqueue scripts and styles
function uls_enqueue_scripts() {
    wp_enqueue_script( 'uls-script', plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . 'js/user-login-status.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0', true );
    wp_localize_script( 'uls-script', 'DocuPressRatingAjax', array(
        'ajax_url' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ),
        'nonce'    => wp_create_nonce( 'uls_ajax_nonce' )
    ) );
}
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'uls_enqueue_scripts' );

// Add status column to Users table
function uls_add_status_column( $columns ) {
    $columns['user_status'] = __( 'Status', 'user-login-status' );
    return $columns;
}
add_filter( 'manage_users_columns', 'uls_add_status_column' );

// Display status in the column
function uls_display_user_status( $value, $column_name, $user_id ) {
    if ( 'user_status' === $column_name ) {
        // Logic to determine user status (e.g., check active sessions)
        // This would typically involve checking against stored session data or user meta.
        // For demonstration, let's assume a function `uls_is_user_logged_in( $user_id )` exists.
        $is_logged_in = uls_is_user_logged_in( $user_id ); // Placeholder function
        if ( $is_logged_in ) {
            return '<span style="color: green;">&#9679;</span>'; // Green circle
        } else {
            return '<span style="color: red;">&#9679;</span>'; // Red circle
        }
    }
    return $value;
}
add_filter( 'manage_users_custom_column', 'uls_display_user_status', 10, 3 );

// Add bulk action for logging out users
function uls_add_bulk_logout_action( $actions ) {
    $actions['bulk_logout_users'] = __( 'Log Out Users', 'user-login-status' );
    return $actions;
}
add_filter( 'bulk_actions-users', 'uls_add_bulk_logout_action' );

// Handle bulk logout action
function uls_handle_bulk_logout_action( $redirect_to, $doaction, $user_ids ) {

        foreach ( $user_ids as $user_id ) {
            // Logic to log out the user by clearing their session tokens
            // Example: wp_logout_user( $user_id ); // Note: wp_logout_user is not a standard WP function, custom implementation needed.
            // A common approach is to delete relevant session cookies or user meta.
            uls_force_logout_user( $user_id ); // Placeholder function
        }
        // Redirect back with a success message
        $redirect_to = add_query_arg( 'users_logged_out', count( $user_ids ), $redirect_to );
    }
    return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter( 'handle_bulk_actions-users', 'uls_handle_bulk_logout_action', 10, 3 );

// Placeholder function for checking login status (implementation needed)
function uls_is_user_logged_in( $user_id ) {
    // This function should check active sessions for the user.
    // For example, by checking user meta for active session tokens or last login times.
    return false; // Default to false
}

// Placeholder function for forcing logout (implementation needed)
function uls_force_logout_user( $user_id ) {
    // This function should invalidate all active sessions for the user.
    // This might involve deleting cookies, session tokens stored in the database, etc.
    // Example: delete_user_meta( $user_id, 'session_tokens' ); // If using WP's session token management
}

// Add message for bulk logout success
function uls_admin_notice_bulk_logout( $redirect_to ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['users_logged_out'] ) ) {
        $count = intval( $_GET['users_logged_out'] );
        if ( $count > 0 ) {
            echo "<div class='notice notice-success is-dismissible'><p>" . sprintf( _n( '%d user logged out.', '%d users logged out.', $count, 'user-login-status' ), $count ) . "</p></div>";
        }

Host Your WordPress Plugins on GitHub and Automate Plugin Packaging
===================================================================

December 21, 2024

Let’s talk plugin distribution.

Hosting your plugins on GitHub provides powerful benefits such as version control, collaboration, and easy sharing.

But distributing your plugin as a proper `.zip` file for users can be tedious, especially when you need to exclude unnecessary files like `.git` folders, `node_modules` , and `.DS_Store` .

This guide walks you through:

1.  Hosting your WordPress plugins on GitHub.
2.  Automating the creation of `.zip` files, saving them one level up in the main `plugins` folder.

![Let's do this - GIF](https://robertdevore.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/lets-do-this.webp)

**Step 1: Host Your Plugin on GitHub**
--------------------------------------

### 1.1. Create a New Repository

Log in to your GitHub account and create a new repository:

*   Go to [github.com/new](https://github.com/new).
*   Name your repository (e.g., `my-awesome-plugin` ).
*   Optionally add a description.
*   Set it to **Public** if you want to share the plugin or **Private** for internal use.

Initialize the repository with:

*   A `README.md` file to describe your plugin.
*   A `.gitignore` file (select “WordPress” from the GitHub template list).

### 1.2. Push Your Plugin Code to GitHub

If your plugin already exists locally:

Open your terminal and navigate to your plugin folder:

`cd /path/to/your/plugin`

Initialize Git and link it to your GitHub repository:

`git init git remote add origin https://github.com/your-username/my-awesome-plugin.git`

Add and commit your plugin files:

`git add . git commit -m "Initial commit"`

Push your code to GitHub:

`git branch -M main git push -u origin main`
```

--------------------------------

### Git Commands for Plugin Distribution

Source: https://robertdevore.com/host-your-wordpress-plugins-on-github-and-automate-plugin-packaging/

### Theme Customizer Example Code

Source: https://robertdevore.com/clean-blog-free-wordpress-theme/

This entry refers to example code for WordPress theme customization, likely involving the WordPress Customizer API. Such code allows users to modify theme options like colors, layouts, and typography directly from the WordPress dashboard. The provided link points to a GitHub repository for a comprehensive example.

```APIDOC
WordPress Theme Customizer API

Purpose: Allows theme developers to provide a user-friendly interface for customizing theme options directly within the WordPress admin area.

Key Components:
- add_section(): Registers a new section in the Customizer manager.
- add_setting(): Registers a setting that will be stored in the WordPress database.
- add_control(): Registers a control (e.g., text input, color picker) associated with a setting.

Example Usage (Conceptual):

// Add a new section for 'Theme Colors'
$wp_customize->add_section('colors_section', array(
    'title'    => __('Theme Colors', 'your-text-domain'),
    'priority' => 30,
));

// Add a setting for the header background color
$wp_customize->add_setting('header_background_color', array(
    'default'   => '#ffffff',
    'transport' => 'refresh', // or 'postMessage'
));

// Add a color picker control for the header background color
$wp_customize->add_control(new WP_Customize_Color_Control($wp_customize, 'header_background_color', array(
    'label'    => __('Header Background Color', 'your-text-domain'),
    'section'  => 'colors_section',
    'settings' => 'header_background_color',
)));

// Outputting the setting in the theme's header.php or via a callback
// Example: <style type="text/css">
// body { background-color: <?php echo get_theme_mod('header_background_color'); ?>; }
// </style>
```

    tags:
      - 'v*.*.*

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v3

      - name: Get Plugin Name
        id: get_plugin_name
        run: echo "::set-output name=plugin_name::$(basename $(pwd))"

      - name: Create plugin zip
