WordPress Programmer Note
End users programmers can use the following filter hooks to add their own menus to the immediate and ajax launcher results.
add_filter('pulsestorm_launcher_ajax_menus', function($links){
return $links;
});
add_filter('pulsestorm_launcher_menus', function($links){
return $links;
});
Just add items to the $links
array (var_dump($links)
for the current format) and your links will be available.
The launcher will perform a basic text search (via in page javascript) for items in the immediate array (the pulsestorm_launcher_menus
hook). Programmers should use the immediate results sparingly, as they’re loaded into memory on every page load.
In the ajax results (the pulsestorm_launcher_ajax_menus
hook), programmers should use the terms
request variable to perform a search for their information, and only return links that are relevant.
See pulsestorm_launcher.php
for more usage tips/hints. The launcher plugin code uses these hooks internally.
