This weekend I began learning WordPress plugin development. After several hours I simultaneously learned the basics of jQuery, AJAX and WordPress plugin development. This was long overdue.
My plugin requirements were to have a password generator that creates tables and inserts data into a database. I wanted this to be accessible in the WordPress back-end.
The ultimate goal is to have these passwords associated with pages and posts and can only be used a couple times. This might end up being a separate plugin.
This Random Password Generator plugin creates a table in the WordPress database ‘prefix_randpass’. It stores the password, timestamp, and sets the ‘active’ field to 1.
Once I complete development, I will send it to the WordPress.org repository and create more comprehensive documentation.

Dude, I wish I could learn a new language in a couple hours… Nice work!
Thanks Craig! The keyword here is “basics”. I learned the basics of these languages. By no means am I a seasoned programmer in… well, any language.
