Extended core functionalities for Pressbooks

Description

This plugin provides tiny extensions for main functionality of pressbooks.

The plugin offer the following functionalities

Original Mark

Original Mark package provides network administrators with ability to mark books of original publisher. It is done with a checkbox in /wp-admin/network/sites.php page, after activation of a plugin you will have new column there with name 'Featured Books'.

EFP settings page

Extensions for PressBooks provides a blank settings page on network and on book level that can be filled with settings of other plugins.

pb_is_based_on metadata update option

pb_is_based_on metadata save the URL of the source of the content if the book is cloned. With pb_is_based_on metabox, we can see the URL of the source of the content or to update to a new URL if the source change the URL for some reason or is a page created without being cloned.

Current URL: [/english-a1-grammar/chapter/cardinal-numbers/]

Canonical

Canonical package provides network administrators with ability to choose canonical URL of cloned books. This functionality works only with "The SEO Framework" plugin active. If book is original -> The SEO framework canonical url of pages If book is a clone -> checkbox available in Appearance -> EFP Customization, the canonical is the parent page. If clone is also featured -> checkbox focusable (canonical to the page or the parent page).
