How this repo is organized

Since this plugin repo was used for a demo at a meetup, I wanted something that the attendees could follow along with if they chose to. After seeing one of Roy Sivan's talks at WPCampus I decided to try and use his approach. Thus the repo is organized in the following way.

• Master Branch
  • Contains the completed project (if you don't want to see the step-by-step progression of the project).
• Base Branch
  • Contains the intial commit (during the demo this is where I started from)
• 1-admin
  • Contains the code to create the two settings field on the general settings page of the WordPress Admin to capture the Facebook and Twitter profile names.
• 2-admin
  • Contains the meta box with the custom fields for the Open Graph Meta Tags
