# WDS Required Plugins

A library you can use to make any plugins required and auto-activate.

* Nobody can de-activate the plugin from the WordPress Admin

* They are auto-activated when required

To use, place this library in your `mu-plugins/` directory (if you don't have one, create one in `wp-content/`), then use the example below:



## Installation & Update

### With Composer

Add the following to your `composer.json`

```json

{

    "extra": {

        "installer-paths": {

            "mu-plugins/{$name}/": ["type:wordpress-muplugin"]

        }

    }

}

```

Then use:

```bash

composer require webdevstudios/wds-required-plugins

```

This will install the `mu-plugin`, e.g. `mu-plugins/wds-required-plugins` in `wp-content` based projects. 

You will have to require it in e.g. `mu-plugins/wds-required-plugins-list.php`:

```php

%s', $label_text );

	return $label;

}

add_filter( 'wds_required_plugins_text', 'change_wds_required_plugins_text' );

```

### Hide Required Plugins (off by default)

To hide your required plugins from the plugins list, use the following filter/code:

```php

add_filter( 'wds_required_plugins_remove_from_list', '__return_true' );

```

This will make any plugin that is required simply not show in the plugins list.
