Announcing “More To The Top”

Posted on by

I’ve just finished yet another plugin. This one is a REALLY simple plugin that removes the #more-123 from the end of the more link. The result is that when you click the link to go read the rest of the post, you don’t scroll down and instead are left at the top of the page.

It came about as a result of a thread in the WordPress support forums. Since modifying core files should be avoided whenever possible, I decided to write this mini-plugin.

If you’d like you download it, you can find a link to do so on the plugin’s page.

Announcing the “Battlefield 2 Stats” WordPress Plugin

Posted on by

I’ve just completed a new plugin that allows you to display your Battlefield 2 profile statistics. The data is fetched via a XML feed from BF2S.com. It’s intended for your sidebar, but can also be used on a WordPress page.

It’s fully configurable via an options page in the WordPress admin area and only requires that you add the plugin’s output function to your theme’s sidebar to get it working.

To see it in action, look to your right in my sidebar, just below the weather.

“Quote Comment” v2.0 Released!

Posted on by

I’ve finally released the entirely recoded version of my Quote Comment plugin.

For those who haven’t heard of it before, this plugin allows commenters to quote other comments in their reply. It is highly cofigurable, all via an admin area options page. Try it out here.

As for what’s new in this version, well, everything is. In v1.x, the plugin was very simple. It’d take the content of a comment and use it to create a link that would paste the contents of that comment into the reply box.

Now, a placeholder is used instead. The default placeholder format is this: [Comment ID #123 Will Be Quoted Here]. When a comment is requested, Quote Comment replaces the placeholder with the real comment. The advantage of this is that any edits to the original comment show up in the quotes, formatting of past comments can easily be changed, etc. The only drawback is that the person quoting is not able to only quote part of the comment. Perhaps I’ll think of a way to do that later.

But for now, what are you waiting for? Go download it now!

WeatherIcon v2.3.1 Finally Released

Posted on by

So after having the version from Garett sit on my computer for like a month, I’ve finally combed through it, fixed some final bugs, added a few more little features, worried for a week or two if I had missed anything, and now released WeatherIcon v2.3.1. This version is pretty much entirely bug fixes with a few new trivial features.

Go download it now! It’s really recommended that you update. 🙂

Announcing “Alphabetical Plugins”

Posted on by

After learning that in WordPress v2.0 (the upcoming version of WordPress that was previously known as v1.6), the plugin management page would still sort plugins by directory and filename rather than the plugin’s name (which makes a lot more sense to me), I decided to write this new plugin.

It creates a sub-page on the plugin management page in the admin area that’s exactly like the original, except that the plugins are sorted alphabetically rather than by directory & filename.

More details and a download link can be found on the plugin’s homepage.

New Version of “Quote Comment”

Posted on by

There is a bug with WordPress where if you have “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” enabled in your admin area, it doesn’t allow nested blockquotes (one inside the other) even though it’s valid code. Version 1.1 addresses the issue by removing any blockquotes from the quoted comment text if you have the above mentioned feature enabled.

If you have that feature enabled, you can snag the new version of the plugin on it’s homepage. Otherwise, there’s no real need to upgrade as this new version performs the same as the previous one. 😉
