KaTracker

Description

A complete bittorrent tracker and torrent management integration for wordpress, make a bittorrent tracker within 5 minutes!
The tracker engine is based uppon the mysql version of peertracker (https://github.com/JonnyJD/peertracker), and was changed to match wordpress standards and functions.
The plugin includes as well as tracker functionality, a torrent management system for wordpress, allowing to upload and manage torrent files inside wordpress directly.
Due to wordpress limitations the cleanup system works hourly (without an option to change) for now.

Main Features

  • Upload and manage torrent files
  • Use a private tracker to tracks only uploaded torrents, or an open tracker to tracks every torrent announced to the tracker
  • Use shortcodes to include a torrent in post, or to list all available torrents
  • Recent torrent widget
  • Torrent thumbnails
  • And more…

For Theme Developers

  • an option to include your own implementation and css of the widget and the shortcode in your theme directory.

License Notes

  • Most of the tracker is licensed under GPLv2 License, but the tracker core and the torrent file class are licensed under GPLv3 or later license.
    I’ve included that license file as well as GPLv3 in the main plugin directory, and added a special notes in the header of every file using that license.

To view a single torrent use the [torrent] shortcode, you can tweak the shortcode with the following attributes:

  • id=(torrent id) *required
  • stats=(1 or 0, shows torrent stats)
  • files=(1 or 0, shows a torrent file list)

To view a list of uploaded torrents, use the [torrents] shortcode:

  • id=(list of torrent ids seperated by commas)
  • category=(if set, lists the torrents in a specific category, otherwise lists all categories)

For wordpress theme developers

  • If you want to override the widget or the shortcode implementations and stylesheets, don’t edit the files in the plugin directory as they will revert every time the plugin is updated. Include in your theme directory a copy of the following files, and edit them instead:
  • For the widget: katracker-widget.php and katracker-widget.css
  • For the shortcode: katracker-shortcode.php and katracker-shortcode.css
