¿Por qué usar Drupal o Joomla si se puede usar WordPress?
Hoy tengo unas cuantas preguntas. El otro día un amigo me preguntaba qué usar para hacer la web de un cliente que le pedía entre otras cosas un foro, blog, eventos, … Mi primer pensamiento fue para Drupal, pero hay un plugin para WordPress que te permite un foro, hay otro para eventos, … Total, que le di unas cuantas vueltas al asunto de hacer webs y pensé que normalmente la gente piensa en WP únicamente para blogs y poca cosa más, pero creo que actualmente se puede usar para la mayoría de las webs que se hacen. Hay que pensar que la mayoría de las webs tienen pocas funcionalidades.
Por eso me pregunto, ¿para que usar Joomla o Drupal? Sinceramente no me gusta nada Joomla, y aunque Drupal es bastante bueno, desarrollar para WordPress me parece más sencillo, me gustan los hooks y la facilidad de los plugins.
¿Qué opináis vosotros?

Añadir estilos y scripts a la administración de plugins en WordPress
Cuando estamos desarrollando un plugin para WordPress y queremos que la administración del plugin tenga estilos y scripts propios, ya sea para darle cierta interactividad o diseño, o bien podremos incluir los estilos o librerías a pelo en la página del plugin, o bien podremos hacer que WordPress añada lo estilos y los scripts en el head del HTML. Para realizar esto, deberemos utilizar las acciones admin_print_styles y admin_print_scripts:
add_action('admin_print_styles', 'incluir_css');
add_action('admin_print_scripts', 'incluir_script');
function incluir_css() {
echo '<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.get_bloginfo('wpurl').'/wp-content/plugins/miplugin/css/estilo.css" />';
}
function incluir_script() {
echo '<script type="text/javacript" src="'.get_bloginfo('wpurl').'/wp-content/plugins/miplugin/js/script.js" ></script>';
}
Así de sencillo.
