EffectIO TGM Plugin Activation 2.5.2

Description:

TGM Plugin Activation is a PHP library that lets developers require or recommend plugins for their WordPress themes and other plugins. It gives users the ability to install, update and automatically activate plugins either one at a time or in bulk, using native WordPress classes, functions and interfaces. The library is aimed at theme and plugin authors who want a straightforward way to manage plugin dependencies for their users.

The library can handle plugins that are bundled with a theme, plugins from the WordPress Plugin Repository and plugins hosted elsewhere on the internet, such as in a private repository. It uses the WP_Filesystem Abstraction class to determine the best installation method for a given server setup, choosing between Direct, FTP, FTP Sockets and SSH. If FTP credentials are needed, a form is displayed so users can enter them and continue. Installations, both singular and bulk, are handled through WordPress' own Plugin_Upgrader and Plugin_Installer_Skin and extensions of other WordPress upgrader classes.

As of version 2.5.0, the library requires at least WordPress 3.7 and PHP 5.2.4 to work properly. This listing covers version 2.5.2 of the library.

The vendor’s own page for TGM Plugin Activation has the full details.
