Valencia, 29/08/2026, G.B.
Tal y comenté recientemente en este post, aquí va el plugin de WordPress para frases aleatorias. Os paso también el archivo.php.

Recordad que para subir un plugin a WordPress (que no esté en el repositorio, como es el caso), hay que crear una carpeta con el mismo nombre del archivo .php, comprimirlo en .zip y subirlo por FTP o S FTP (mejor esto último) al apartado del escritorio de WordPress «Subir plugin».

Aquí va e código de la primera versión del plugin. Si no consigues verlo correcatente en este post, descarga el archivo frases-aleatorias.zip de mi cuenta de pCloud e instálalo en WordPRess – > Plugins.
