The Plugins Code Editor allows you to directly edit the source files of any installed plugin.

This is useful for developers or advanced users who want to customize plugin behavior, adjust templates, or extend functionality without leaving the Vvveb admin panel.

What You Can Edit

The editor supports all common plugin file types, including:

  • PHP — plugin logic, hooks, event handlers, settings pages
  • HTML — templates used by the plugin
  • CSS — styling for plugin-generated elements
  • JavaScript — interactive behavior, widgets, and UI enhancements
  • Configuration files — metadata, settings, and plugin definitions

All changes are applied immediately after saving.

How to Use the Editor

  1. Go to Plugins → Edit Plugin
  2. Select the plugin you want to modify
  3. Choose a file from the plugin’s directory structure
  4. Edit the code directly in the built‑in editor
  5. Click Save to apply your changes

The editor includes syntax highlighting to make code easier to read and modify.

Best Practices

To keep your site stable and maintainable:

  • Duplicate the plugin before making major changes
  • Add comments to document your modifications
  • Test changes on a staging site when possible
  • Keep a backup of original plugin files
  • Avoid editing marketplace plugins unless necessary, as updates may overwrite changes
