## Description

Github Ribbons is a WordPress Plugin that allows you to add « Fork me on Github »
ribbons to your WordPress posts or pages. You can enable the ribbon per post/page
level or at global level.

### Features

The following are some of the features of the Plugin

 * You can choose between image based ribbons or CSS3 based ribbons.
 * You can choose whether to show the ribbon on the right side or on the left side.
 * You can choose whether the link has to open in a new tab or not.
 * You can choose any one of the 6 different colours that are available.
 * Configuration can be set either globally or on a post by post basic.

### Styling using CSS

If you want to style the ribbon yourself or add additional CSS styles to it (like
adding `z-index` etc) then add it to the `.robbon-holder` CSS class.

### Development

The development of the Plugin happens over at [github](https://github.com/sudar/github-ribbon).
If you want to contribute to the Plugin, fork the [project at github](https://github.com/sudar/github-ribbon)
and send me a pull request.

If you are not familiar with either git or Github then refer to this [guide to see how fork and send pull request](http://sudarmuthu.com/blog/contributing-to-project-hosted-in-github).
