The AppBrain website (and matching app) allows you to view your installed Android Apps, view the marketplace and even install, right from your browser.<\/p>\n\n

Android App Share allows you to list your app lists via a widget, shortcode or manually added function call.<\/p>\n\n

There are 3 ways to display a list - a function call (requires PHP coding, but can be placed anywhere), a short code (which can be easily placed in a post or page) or with a sidebar widget.<\/p>\n\n

Let's go through each of the 3 methods in turn...<\/p>\n\n

1. Function Call<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

For those with access (and the requirement) to their theme PHP, a function calls adds total flexibility as it can be added anywhere within your theme.<\/p>\n\n

<?php if (function_exists('android_app_share')) {android_app_share('username','listname','paras');} ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
Where username<\/code> is your AppBrain username, listname<\/code> is the name of the required app list and paras<\/code> is a list of parameters - an ampersand separating each parameter.<\/p>\n\n
Here's an example that lists my own app list...<\/p>\n\n
<?php if (function_exists('android_app_share')) {android_app_share(\"dartiss\",\"my-android-apps\",\"limit=5&order=name&target=_blank&nofollow=yes&desclen=100\");} ?>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
In this case it shows 5 apps, in name order. A description is shown, limited to 100 characters, clicking on any link will open a new window and rel=\"nofollow\"<\/code> has been added to each link.<\/p>\n\n
2. Short Code<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
This is an easy one. Within any post or page, simply type the following...<\/p>\n\n
[applist user=x listname=y]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
Where x is the username and y is the listname. All the other parameters, as listed with the function call, can be used too. For example, the previous example as a short code would be...<\/p>\n\n
[applist user=dartiss listname=my-android-apps limit=5 order=name target=_blank nofollow=yes desclen=100]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
In this case, this would not appear an unordered list, because the default for the short code is that this turned off.<\/p>\n\n
3. Widget<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
The Widget is available from the Appearance->Widgets menu within Administation. Drag it to the appropriate sidebar and click on the down arrow to modify the default options.<\/p>\n\n
These NEED to be done as you also have to user name and list name.<\/p>\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Upload the entire youtube-embed<\/code> folder to your wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.<\/li>\n
  3. If using the widget, browse to Appearance->Widgets<\/code>, add the widget, and configure the options.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    Can I change the look of the output?<\/h4>\n\n
    Yep. All elements have a class<\/code> of appbrain<\/code>. You can also decide, via the parameters, whether you wish to display the output as an unordered list or within a div<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n
    Can I add more stuff like this to my site?<\/h4>\n\n
    Yes. AppBrain have a number of widgets<\/a> that can be added to your site quickly and easily. Either add the code directly to your theme files or user a plugin such as Simple Code Embed<\/a> to add the code directly to your posts and pages.<\/p>\n\n
    How can I get help or request possible changes<\/h4>\n\n
    Feel free to report any problems, or suggestions for enhancements, to me either via my contact form<\/a> or by the plugins homepage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
