Joomla! 5 Extension Development Blog

In this blog post, we’ll extend the content from the book Developing Extensions for Joomla! 5 by building an editor button plugin. This new button will support the content plugin we wrote in Chapter 8 and will improve the process of adding links to our projects. This will simplify how users insert project links directly from the Joomla! Editor. You’ll learn the steps to set up the plugin, adapt the component to show the layout properly, and integrate JavaScript for seamless project selection. All the required code is provided, along with explanations for each part.
