Question

How does one make a jQuery plugin that is possible to execute without using an element selector?

Like, usually it’s:
$('#myElementID').myPluginFunction(myVariables);
But, instead:
$.myPluginFunction(myVariables);

Thanks in advance!

Actually you just use $.extend() instead of $.fn.extend(), read here for more

$.fn.extend({
   myMethod: function(){...}
});
//jQuery("div").myMethod();

$.extend({
 myMethod2: function(){...}
});
//jQuery.myMethod();
